Was expected a bit more from $14.95 Hell's Kitchen Sink Bowl

Lei H.

I was underwhelmed by the açaí bowl. It's okay but a bit of an unimpressive presentation. Probably not going to come back again. Good aircon. No bathroom. The person serving us had low energy.

Green Machine for me and a Fireman for my favorite hairstylist next door.

Jessica R.

I ordered the Green Machine for myself and a Fireman for my hair stylist. The Green Machine was delicious and tasted fresh. I had no wait time. My order was ready in minutes after I paid the cashier. There is limited bar stool seating and no restroom. The cashier was professional and courteous. The open kitchen was nice, you see how clean and fast the employees are working. I'll definitely stop by again when I get my hair done.

My sister is obsessed with Fresh From Hell (rightfully so) and we had an Açaí bowl and juice every morning we were in town. I loved the Double Dare Devil (no peanut butter), the chia, hemp, and flax seeds were amazing additions that I don't usually get! The C+ juice was delicious and the perfect antidote for the cold I was coming down with.

Meryam A.

I'm always on a hunt for a healthy green smoothie and found this place one day when I was walking around. It is a small café with not a lot of seating, but the staff was incredibly sweet and service was very quick. My smoothie was delicious and I enjoyed it. It definitely had a fresh fruit and vegetable taste and the best part is, it tasted natural. Definitely had a fresh fruit and vegetable taste and not like other places with overly sweetened smoothies with added sugars.

Gabby A.

My smoothie at Fresh From Hell was good, but extremely overpriced. However, the staff was nice.

Danielle A.

Really good & extremely fresh. I stopped here for a quick breakfast while in Hells Kitchen and this place didn't disappoint. Staff was very friendly too. Inside is small but does have sitting but there is patio furniture outside so you can enjoy the beautiful weather, which is what I did.

WTH drink... definitely refreshing and worth getting.

Shelly J.

I was looking for a morning pick me up. Looking boba, or something refreshing, so I discovered this place by accident. It's kinda blended in, as it's mixed in with dwelling units. Everything made fresh. I picked WTH... drink delicious drink mixed with some greens and other fruits that I now forgot what's in it. They are friendly, but slooooooow!!! I dont know what system they are using but it's outdated. If they even have one, as the employees had to keep coming to the POS register, to look at orders. Some people were complaining about long wait time. I waited 20 minutes for my drink. It's a very small place, so consider of taking yours to go. They are kinda like Playa Bowls but not as fancy. Despite my long wait time, Ill definitely return, cuz my shake was expensive but good. Friendly employees in NYC, is a plus for me. There's a lot of places in NYC we're places serve a side of NYC attitude and sass and I don't have time for that. 5 stars... I just hope next time they are faster with orders.

Fresh From Hell is a small smoothie and açaí bowl spot in Hell's Kitchen. The restaurant is easy to find. Very small inside. It gets busy and there can be no room to sit and even wait for your order to be ready. They have a lot of options. The only thing that I was a little disappointed about was the granola which we had to exclude from the smoothie bowl because they were not sure that it was gluten free. The staff were friendly. The service was quick. We tried the Green Machine and What the Hell smoothie, as well as the Hawaiian Lover açaí bowl. They were refreshing, thick, creamy, and full of flavor. The fruit was fresh and the coconut was crunchy. The perfect texture combination. Fresh From Hell was a great option for hot summer New York days.

Kelly J.

I'm from SoCal and I was craving for a clean green juice! This place is it. It also has amazing açaí bowls to satisfy your healthy cravings in the morning. Really easy to find and the staff was welcoming and helpful on what you should get. I would highly recommend coming back here.

Tiffany L.

Came here because I wanted to try a new smoothie/açaí bowl place (I always go to juice generation). The place is small with a few seats. Upon entering, I was greeted with blank stares (no hello). The menu posted on the wall doesn't include all the options. I only saw the açaí bowls when I opened the paper menus on the side. I ordered the probiotic booster bowl, which comes with greek yogurt on the top (something I've never tried and I'm a fan now!). Overall, price and taste are similar to other smoothie places but I don't think I'll be coming back because I like my açaí bowls to have the consistency of a smoothie but this one was more icy.

Carol L.

This is a great place to get a smoothie or an acai bowl. A lot of healthy options here. The smoothies we had were delicious. This is a very small place. Not much room inside for sitting around. It has a nice big window facing the school across the street. Best part of all right next-door is an amazing espresso. Shop the best of both worlds in one spot. The Employees were very friendly, engaging and informative as we couldn't find the coffee shop but we found them first lol

I ordered the avocado and Swiss sandwich. There was about a teaspoon of avocado spread on the sandwich, it was almost comical. My sandwich was all bread, and a small sliver of Swiss. The avocado wasn't even inside the sanwitch, it was on the edges, as you can see in the pic. And no, there is no avocado under the Swiss, it's just a little bit of sprouts and bread. Delivery took over an hour. Won't order from here again. read more

I had been waiting for Fresh from Hell to open to experience it. Their menu consists of sandwiches, juices, soups which change daily and salads. It is a very small space with no table seating and limited counter seating. Their breakfast special consists of either creamy coconut oatmeal or greek yogurt and seasonal fruit. On the day I went, I got a large split pea soup (it needed something???) And the turkey avocado sandwich on italian bread with lettuce, tomato and honey mustard. It was very good. You can also get greens on top of which you can get a choice of three salads. An excellent choice for kosher or vegetarian eaters. I would recommend and return. read more

Like some other people that I spoke to, I heard about this place from Teddysguide. Oh boy, if definitely did not disappoint. I tried one of the acai bowl and what came as a surprise is that the acai was totally different from any others I have tried in the city. It was denser and less watery.. Just like the real stuff. The ambience of this little place is amazing with clear view of the kitchen. Clean and organized place. Will definitely be coming back read more

I started eating here because I was getting really tired of eating at Pret a Manger EVERY DAY. The sandwich selection isnt huge, but they are all really tasty. My favorite is the chicken salad, which comes with red pepper and sprouts (on a good day). You can really taste that all the ingredients are really fresh. I think perhaps because they are new, the smoothie recipes sometimes taste funny, but if you stick with a more basic tried and true recipe, its sure to be good. I like the "what the hell" smoothie with avocado. The salads is probably the most plentiful option. You choose a base and then have a bunch of really good toppings to choose from. If you are a salad fanatic, this is definitely your place. I also hear the coconut milk oatmeal is BOMB. read more

was walking around on a freezing Wednesday looking for lunch and discovered this new looking place on a side street in the 40's. stopped in to give it a try. i got the half sammie, small soup combo for 8.50. chose chicken salad for the sammie, butternut squash for the soup. was a solid portion, all tasted quite healthy, a good "under 10 bucks" lunch option. i'd like the option to get the half sammie + LARGE soup and pay a bit more, but maybe next time they'll have that as a menu / secret menu option in the computer :-) read more

Normally people don't want to write reviews of new undiscovered places out of fear that they'll be discovered and mobbed. This is the opposite--i want more people to find this place so that it stays open and provides a local, healthy food option in this neighborhood. Fresh from Hell has yummy, freshly prepared salads, smoothies, and sandwiches at reasonable price points. To you need to know anything more? For the same price as a bland salad a roni at a place like chop't you could be eating a salad topped with three of their daily revolving side salads, which doesn't make sense but tastes great. There's a basil vinaigrette that I dream about. Etc read more

Something else to note is that they do have food options - they're limited but there's still a decent chunk to choose from. Plus they come with protein too. I liked how my bowl had all the fixings and the pastry was "guilt-free" The prices are a bit hefty but for fresh juice and a yummy sweet treat, I'd be back for more.

I love acai bowls-- have eaten them for years and have worked with acai brands in the past. The base of this "acai" bowl didn't taste one bit like acai and the fruit on top was scarce and not ripe. Ever tried an unripe kiwi? Yeah, not pleasant. By taste and color alone I doubt they used acai in the base. And if they did, I would question the quality of their acai. For $15+ it's a tragedy. Stick to the smoothies.

I don't know why but something just same over me and having a juice beverage sounded correct - it must have been the nice weather that has finally hit NYC. Anyway, we headed over to check it out. JG sells a variety of juices and smoothies in several flavor combinations. Some of them are fruit-based, some are milk-based, and some have additions to help with immunity, detox, etc. Since I'm not a regular juice or smoothie drinker, I was looking for something with flavors I liked and not loaded with calories. I found that in the Cherry C Monster - this contained cherries, pineapple, dragon fruit, banana, and orange juice. The smoothie was quite good - lots of cherry flavor and surprisingly not too sweet. Service was fast and efficient - they're pounding out those smoothies at a rapid pace so my order was ready in no time. Overall, I had a good first experience at Juice Generation - I don't think it will be a go-to based on my tastes, but if the mood catches me I would definitely return.

Ordered five items, but only one item arrived. No call, no message - just didn't care.read more

Hamburger America

Hamburger 'MURICA!…read more When we want a no-frills, affordable NYC smashburger instead of a fancy viral one, we have two go-to spots. While the other place might make a slightly better burger, Hamburger America wins on the overall experience. They offer actual tables and chairs, free soda refills, and a flawless mid-century Americana vibe (think retro counter, chrome accents, and vinyl floors). Plus, they feature rotating regional specials. The Wisconsin is bathed in butter. The Mississippi is breadcrumbed and deep-fried. The Lansing features Michigan olive mayo. The Salt Lake City is married to three separate onion burgers. The Waco is burned to a crisp. OK, those last two are made up.

I've been meaning to visit Hamburger America ever since it opened in 2023, and it lived up to the…read moreanticipation. From the moment you walk in, it's clear that this place is more than just another burger joint. The updated Americana-inspired interior feels authentic without being kitschy, and every detail seems carefully considered. What could have been a simple spot for burgers, fries, and shakes instead feels like a genuine passion project dedicated to preserving and celebrating America's burger traditions. I ordered George Motz's Fried Onion Burger, the restaurant's signature take on the Oklahoma-style onion burger. While it shares some similarities with a smash burger, the preparation sets it apart. A generous amount of thinly sliced onions is smashed directly into the beef patty and cooked on the flat-top griddle, allowing the onions to caramelize while soaking up the rich flavor of the beef tallow. As someone who grew up in New York, I've always gravitated toward more traditional burgers with a softer, juicier texture. Onion burgers, on the other hand, are all about maximizing surface area to create that deeply caramelized crust. Hamburger America executes this style flawlessly. The burger arrived with beautifully crisp edges, a savory crust, and a perfect balance between beef, sweet onion flavors, and melted American cheese, and it came with three sliced pickles on the side. The supporting cast deserves recognition as well. The Martin's Potato Roll is an essential part of the experience. The bun is steamed over the burger and onions while they cook, creating a soft, pillowy texture that absorbs all of those flavorful juices without falling apart. It's the kind of detail that elevates a great burger into a memorable one. If you choose a seat at the counter, you'll have a front-row view of the action. Watching the cooks work the flat-top griddle is part of the experience and gives you an appreciation for the precision and consistency behind each burger. There's something satisfying about seeing such a simple food prepared with so much care and attention. The restaurant offers a straightforward setup. Upon entering, you can either grab a seat at the counter or order at the self-service counter. Additional seating is available in the back as well as outside. Despite its popularity, the layout keeps things moving efficiently. Located on the corner of West Houston and MacDougal Streets in SoHo, Hamburger America has quickly become one of NYC's most talked-about burger destinations. Founded by burger historian George Motz, the restaurant feels like a living tribute to regional American burger culture, bringing classic styles that are often overlooked into the spotlight. My first visit left me eager to return. Next time, I'd like to work my way through some of the other burger offerings and finally try the egg salad sandwich, which has developed quite a following of its own. For burger enthusiasts, food historians, or anyone who appreciates a thoughtfully executed American classic, Hamburger America is well worth the visit. Sometimes the simplest foods are the hardest to perfect, and this place proves just how special a burger can be when it's done right.

We happened across this place lookin for something green after eating pizza for 2 days straight. It was SO good. Exceeded all expectations which were relatively higher to begin with. We split a salad topped with lentils, beets, and Bruwer sprouts. We liked it so much we decided to try one of their smoothies. After debating between a number of their options we chose the green machine. It was the perfect blend of sweetness/tartness/"greenness". And it didn't hurt that hey "made extra" and gave us 2 smoothies instead of 1. If you're near time square and looking for quick and affordable food that isn't dressed in grease, you'll love this place! read more
