I love coming to this organic and healthy eatery, especially since you can earn points on purchases that can be redeemed for discounts and free products. You don't need to download an app, just sign up for Le Botaniste Rewards at the register before making a payment. This is the healthiest meal I can find in SoHo, Manhattan. Everything is gluten free, and many items are also dairy free and soy free. Good service from the eatery staff. The place wasn't busy. Just note, there are restrooms available for customers only. I love the comfortable and cozy atmosphere. The Moroccan Veggies are delicious and healthy! The Omega 3 Brownie is to die for. On top of that, drinks come with ceramic cups and meals are served in ceramic bowls along with stainless steel utensils. read more

Le Botaniste - Moroccan Veggies are gluten free, dairy free and soy free - Vegetarian Near Me - New York, New York

Super consistent, healthy, and fast. I love the options to add sauces to everything as well. Great for dine-in and takeout. Pricey, but the price is worth it. I'm very interested to try their selection of wines next time! A New York Gem. read more

I have been to Le Botaniste a many times and it never disappoints. An airy, fresh and greenery ensconced environment that caters to plant based food. Plant based bowls with make your own or they have variety of pre-selected options. Food is flavorful and quite delicious. They also offer a variety of drinks and desserts. Always have had good customer service experiences. You leave full and satisfied. Highly recommended. read more

Came across this vegan restaurant while walking around SoHo, and it ended up being one of the most filling delicious vegan meals I have ever had. I ordered the Chili Sin Carne and Priyanka Samosa Bowl. The Chili Sin Carne was yummy, especially the turmeric onions. The Priyanka Samosa Bowl was a limited-time menu item when I visited, if they still have that on the menu, I highly recommend ordering it. That bowl is extremely delicious and full of flavor. The restaurant itself is very clean and has unique decor which I loved. Also, the people there were very kind and were explaining the items that were on the menu, since it was my first time there. Overall, such a great experience and definitely a spot I would come back to! read more

Stopped in to try the seasonal samosa bowl and was not disappointed. The saag is really tasty and served nice and warm. I love and appreciate that Le Botaniste is always evolving their menu and flavor additions. My coworkers who came with me were impressed at how fast we got our food and with how nice the interior is for a fast casual place. read more

Le Botaniste - Chef Priyanka Samosa Bowl "Saag" - Vegetarian Near Me - New York, New York

What a beautiful and interesting concept and you know how much I love samples! They are expecting people to ask since it's a unique concept of plant based and healthy food combinations. The manager explained the process and I decided to build my own bowl with tofu and sweet potatoes. I wish I had some gluten free tamari to add but table salt was helpful to add flavor. The interior is beautiful and I love all of the old fashioned apothecary vibes. The line is getting long at 2 pm on a Monday afternoon! read more

I casually came across this beautiful place while picking up some stuff around the neighborhood. Although my husband and I are not vegan/plant-based only, we enjoy eating healthy wholesome food from time to time. It surprised us with delicious dishes like the Tibetan Mama Bowl and the Pasta Bolo. Both hearty and satisfying. The staff were great, it was our first time so they explained the different options on the menu and even let us tried some of the sauces. This is one of the many different locations around the city, so I hope you give it a try like I did! read more

Le Botaniste - Pasta Bolo and Tibetan Mama with iced tea - Vegetarian Near Me - New York, New York

This place was such a pleasant surprise to find. It's a vegetarian spot, but not just regular veggies on a plate, but rather, a creative blend of intriguing dishes I rested by the cooks here. I love the decoration as the motto is that food is medicine (which I totally agree with), and the restaurant is set up to look like an apothecary of sorts. The staff was friendly and informative about the food being served and fast with serving it as well. I hope to eat at one of their locations again, such a great place to try out! read more

SERVICE - one of many locations in new york city - located in soho near the canal street station - ambiance good for a semi casual meal or takeout - workers are friendly and explain menu options - food served quickly as it is made to order - focus on foods that are nutrient rich and balanced - can sample different sauces to see which one you like best MENU - vegetable focused bowls, starters, and desserts - all vegan/vegetarian and gluten free - average price ($16 per bowl) FOOD - saag bota (8/10): brown rice topped with a spinach eggplant chickpea curry, sweet potatoes, mixed herbs, curry hummus, mint dressing, and a crispy cracker. This was a winter special dish and it satisfied the need for a warming dinner on a cold night. The addition of eggplant to the saag adds an unexpected richness without making it heavy. My favorite part was the cracker with the curry hummus. The hummus is chunkier than regular hummus so it feels almost like the texture of an egg salad. WOULD I GO BACK? Yes! It is a great quick lunch or dinner option that is made with whole foods and is not super expensive. read more

The aesthetics were cool. You can sample before ordering. The Tibetan Mama is a popular choice, but it was a bit sweet for me. I had the Chili Sin Carne bowl, which was not very spicy, but tasty and filling. The lemonade was also refreshing and not too sweet or tart. read more

Fun cool and unpretentious vegan restaurant and wine bar. Honestly super easy for non vegans to love too. Servers are super helpful with explaining dishes and the build your own options. I always mix it up and it's always delicious no matter the combination. Their soups are really great and the mint chutney and seed mix topping are a must! read more

Le Botaniste - Saag Bota DIY Hot Bowl - Vegetarian Near Me - New York, New York

A cozy, plant-based and vegan-friendly restaurant not too far from China Town! Closest subway stop was Chandler St, and since I was in the area, a quick search for "vegan" eateries nearby led me here. It's like a fancier version of those build-your-own-bowl places. I got one of their special seasonal flavors, the saag bowl, which came with rice, curried spinach, chickpeas, sweet potato, spicy hummus, and a green sauce. It was definitely filling and was the perfect warm treat for all the cold weather NYC has experiencing lately. If I lived here, this would definitely be a healthy staple to frequently visit. read more

So great! I have been only eating meat twice a week. Today was supposed to be my meat day, but when I came across this place, I was like "nope, vegetarian it is." Just deliciousness. The location's vibe is so warm. And there are folks working in here, too. Will return. read more

La Botaniste is a local chain serving plant-based fare in the most gorgeous of settings. I met a friend here for dinner and we had a great time. The aesthetics of this shop really lets you relax compared to the hustle and bustle of the outside world. Upon entering, you either order and grab your food, or find a table to settle down first. My dinner was the Tibetan Curry which was pretty good but was made much better when you added some baked tofu into the mix. I felt the depth of flavor could've been deeper but was still happy with having a great hearty bowl in the heart of Manhattan be so readily available. They didn't have their full dessert options available so I'll have to try that the next time I'm back for another round. read more

This fast casual spot is so LA coded in the best way possible. I believe everything is vegan here and super super healthy. As someone who is sensitive to sodium, I never feel like the food is too salty, and I really like their whole philosophy of how food should be medicine. I feel like this has more soul and warmth than something like sweetgreen and I actually think the dishes here are more well balanced. I feel really good and well nourished after eating here and you can't really go wrong with any of the options. My personal favorite entrée is probably the saag because I love the spinach and eggplant for fiber as well as the young coconut ceviche. It is acidic and tangy, and the coconuts are really tender and high-quality. Love these two dishes together as well as the raw chocolate cake for a little sweet treat. Super hazelnutty and I don't feel bloated or sugar crashed after eating. The service is really quick even when the place is pretty busy and I would definitely recommend for a warm comforting meal. read more

This is a 100% organic, plant based place. There are several locations. I went to the one in Soho. I went with the Botanical Menu which is a cup of soup of the day and choice of one half portion bowl of your choice. I went w/ the Botanical Salad which was a salad mix, quinoa, superseed avocado, root veggies, tumeric onions, red sauerkraut, micro greens w/ some saffron aioli dressing. This contains nut/ cashew and their pea soup. I gotta say, this was one of the most freshest and flavorful plant based meals I've had! I also ordered a beet juice to wash everything down. So refreshing! The meal was so memorable that I came back later that day and picked up two desserts, the Raspberry Raw Cake which has dates, coconut, passion fruit, almond and cashew and their Omega 3 Brownie made of flax seeds, cocoa, brown sugar, buckwheat flour and corn flour. This was served w/ a side of cashew cream. I normally don't like super healthy desserts but these two were fantastic! This place is a winner for me! Place is clean and cute. Staff was nice and answered all my questions! read more

Yes to Le Botaniste. Yes to this light filled beautiful space, its embarrassment of vegetarian riches in gorgeous le creuset pots. Yes to coconut peanut sauce with lots of green veg and a little red garnish. Or the veg curry with lots of cabbage. Yes to dining alone or with a friend. Beautiful, charming, delicious.

From the minute you open the door, the vibe shifts. It always smells amazing and the atmosphere's serene, the employees warm and knowledgeable about the menu without being sales-y or fake. I've tried about 3/4 of the menu and literally everything I've eaten is fantastic. The curries, the chili, the seasonal mushroom gravy, the various iterations of cold DIY salad bowls, and the bakery items. Whoever's minding the store knows what they're doing, from a culinary perspective and also store design. The seasonal menus are thoughtful, the proprietary hot sauce is perfect, and I feel good when I'm there. I was reluctant to try it because it's a chain. So glad I did. PS I'm not vegan. Not even vegetarian. I never leave feeling unsatisfied. When it's good, it's good. This is good! read more

Clean and fresh tasting meal at a very decent rate for NYC! I enjoyed bites of the: Veggie sushi roll (a must try!) Mediterranean Salad Carrot juice My only reason for a 4/5 was the salad... not sure how ratatouille is Mediterranean. While I did eat it, I wouldn't say I overly enjoyed it. The tzatziki was delicious though!!! Inside there's plenty of seating to enjoy there, outside or to go! It's a little funky to order because you have to place the order before you can see the large menu. The people working the counter were super kind and friendly (also uncommon for NYC)! read more

Amazing food! Amazing delivery! Outstanding. Highly highly highly recommend. They delivered to us in Brooklyn from Manhattan. And fast too! We received the food faster than some restaurants closer to us. We were looking for a vegan restaurant and our daughter suggested Le Botsniste. OMG - the food did not disappoint! I ordered the miso soup and it was so filling. The vegetable rolls were a delicious appetizer. You cannot go wrong. We will definitely order from here again! read more

My friend and I enjoyed a 5 night trip to NYC. We enjoyed eating at all the vegan restaurants. This one was so good, we ate here 3 times. They have several cafes throughout the city. Their food is healthy and organic and delicious and so fresh! I especially liked the Tibetan Mama. Stop in for lunch or dinner. You will not be disappointed! read more

This vegan fast food place has a few locations in the city (please open in the financial district) and is a solid option for plant based food. I love getting their botanical menu, which comes with a half-sized bowl and soup of the day. It fills up my tummy for sure! Tried their drinks too and those were also amazing. read more

This may be the only review that I feel fully qualified to write as I've tried nearly everything on the menu at Le Botaniste. This location is my favorite and it's quite lovely inside and it always smells so good. I would say the value for the price here is hit or miss, but if budget isn't a concern then the bowls here really are super fresh and delicious. My top three recommendations are: 1. Tibetan Mama: 10/10 I've had nothing quite like this and it hits every. time. try it. 2. Pasta Bolo: 8/10 Classic and solid choice, but heavier than I would prefer. 3. Spicy Chile con Carne: 7/10 By the end of the bowl, I'm usually tired of eating this. I would skip the desserts as they're quite small and don't taste as fresh as the mains. Hoping they provide rice options other than brown rice in the future! read more

Every year we go to NYC and stay around the corner from this place and get dinner there at least once. The food is remarkably good and satisfying each time and the staff are always kind and patient as it takes us forever to make our decisions. We usually take it back to our hotel room but the inside is cute and they have tables outside too if the weather is nice. If you're looking for great vegan food, this is your place and if you just want some tasty, healthy whole food you'll be just as happy. read more

I've been coming to Le Botaniste since they opened and I keep seeing new locations pop up in the city. That made me so happy! But now I'm not sure.. I came in for a late lunch and ordered Pasta Bolo, which actually was called something different before and none of the employees knew that. Which is ok! I know staff constantly changes. When I got my bowl it looked much smaller than portions they used to serve. I was looking forward to nice hearty bowl instead of a puny appetizer size one. Super disappointing.. read more

so cute!! We were headed towards Soho for drinks with a friend on a Monday night and walked past this cute lil place. Highlights: parklet to enjoy food outside on a pretty day, fun/healthy/fresh vegan menu, dessert and alcohol options. Price is reasonable - I'd say the portions are definitely not huge. Like enough to just fill you up. At least for the "magic miso" soup. The tofu in the soup was banging, and the broth was definitely savory. Not the best miso soup I've had but still pretty good. If I were to go again, I would build my own bowl. My partner got a preset salad with white beans, orange hummus, peas, greens, ginger sauce, grilled/roasted veggies. It was good! Staff were kind and efficient. In summary: It was a lovely date spot. Love supporting local vegan spots. It's a 4 for me personally cuz I love casual/filling more than nice/fancy. But for what it is, it's a 5 if that makes sense lol. read more

The interior of this restaurant is ridiculously nice -- this is the perfect spot for meeting up with friends. There's ample seating inside and it's appropriately spaced out. It has coffee shop vibes, making you feel like you can sit here for a while comfortably. Noise level is fairly low. Will definitely be back. Tibetan Mama with Veggie Balls - With a nice amount of rich curry coating everything, the Tibetan Mama has plenty of flavor and substance. At the same time, adding Veggie Balls is almost necessary to feel completely satisfied. The bowl comes with a variety of fresh veggies and greens, but certainly not an abundance; I found the Veggie Balls really the star of the dish. Mixed with the curry, the Veggie Balls were great (but I probably wouldn't recommend them as a standalone item). Value: 4/5 Quality: 5/5 Quantity: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Atmosphere: 5/5 read more
