    Fried Cheese Wonton(Crab Rangoon)
    Gianna L.

    I feel bad because the People were so sweet, but the food was not it keep in mind we knew this is vegetarian/vegan but I wasn't expecting what we got the Singapore noodles. We're just not good at all whatever imitation meat they're using isn't my cup of tea. Cheese wontons tasted off and so did the miso soup really good service but I will not be back

    Was starving after running errands. Got an amazing avocado salad ! I will definitely come back to try other dishes.

    Service was great as I was the only one eating in. The space is chill for a quick bite. Food came out in a timely manner and was yummy. Total was $15.28

    This is my go-to place in Brooklyn for vegetarian meals. I usually stop by for lunch after the gym or delivery for dinner. I just tried the chicken sandwich, but it's small. However, you get two, and the sauce is very tasty. The fries could have been more crispy for my liking. However, it did taste good. General Tso chicken ( they give enough for 3 meals), I ate some already in the pictures. Spinach in garlic and broccoli in garlic sauce is the bomb. You can't not buy from lotus without trying the spring rolls with the sauce . The boneless spare ribs are the as well (enough for three meals). Top the meal of with a fresh juice, you can't miss from this place. Staff is always friendly .

    I was so surprised to find this vegan restaurant right next door to one of my favorite vegan spot in this neighborhood. I got several dishes including the most popular Bbq Ribs. The 2nd I tasted it; I remembered I've eaten here before. One note across all the dishes I had here; sweet. No nuance of flavor. Just sweet.Go next door or down Flatbush to Zen Vegetarian.

    In a neighborhood rife with fast food options, Lotus Vegetarian stands out not only as one of the healthier options in the area, but also one of the rare mom and pop shops. With views of the huge logos of IHOP, Retro Fitness, and Rite Aid gleaming in the distance, being inside Lotus feels like a zen hideaway from the big corporations. The food is good too! Craving some veggies after a rather indulgent weekend, I scanned through their menu for some healthy sides. I ordered roasted pumpkin as an appetizer, which came steamed in a small pint. There was nothing more to this side than cut up, steamed squash but it was pretty much the healthy side I was seeking. My sweet basil soy protein entree was almost enough for two meals, had plenty of protein that was pleasantly crisp at the edges, and complemented the haricots verts and sweet basil sauce really nicely. My partner ordered veggie lo mein, which I found to be overcooked to the point of mushiness. Noodles without any chew to them are a dealbreaker for me. The decor is nice enough to stay for a sit down meal, but they are extra speedy for takeout and delivery.

    We finally made it to Modern Love. It's been on my list for years now because Isa Chandra is like…read morethe OG vegan chef. We happened to get there during brunch for our first visit, which was great because it was a mix of both lunch and breakfast options. We split one main dish from each part of the menu. The Tofu Benedict was the best Benedict I've ever eaten IN MY LIFE, and also top three best breakfasts I've ever had. The smoked tomato is what makes that dish extra special. The rosemary home fries on the side were also incredible and I'm really picky when it comes to potatoes. We also split the Chickpea Parm sandwich but I was so full that I ended up taking a majority of my half sandwich home. Which was perfect because it was even better cold! The Italian flavors mixed with the savory chickpea patty and the bitter greens was just perfect. The only thing that wasn't great (not docking any stars for this) was dessert. We ordered the Strawberry "Tiramisu." I'm putting Tiramisu in quotes because I detected no espresso and no cinnamon. It was super bland. I let my husband eat most of it. Would not order that again. I am looking forward to returning! The wait staff were really friendly, the ambiance was super pretty, and food came out super fast and hot. Perfection.

Warm atmosphere, a strong selection of vegan food and drinks, and the kind of place that made the evening feel special without trying too hard. It's since closed, and from what I understand it wasn't about the food or the love from regulars, it was the brutal economics of running a sit-down restaurant in a delivery-and-takeout world. Nine years of serving genuinely great vegan comfort food in Williamsburg, done in by margins rather than quality. That's a rough way for a good restaurant to go. If you ever got to eat here, you know what was lost. If you didn't, I'm sorry you missed it.

I was a little disappointed to see the skirt steak from my first visit was no longer available, but that quickly disappeared once I tried the mofongo. The mofongo had bits of tempeh bacon mixed throughout and was topped with oyster mushrooms. The plantain was sweeter than the traditional green plantain mash I'm used to, but I actually loved that twist. The oyster mushrooms were seasoned so well they reminded me of chicharrón, while the tempeh bacon added the smoky, savory element that mofongo traditionally gets from pork cracklings. What really tied the dish together was the creamy coconut curry, which gave it a delicious Caribbean-inspired twist. The entire dish was creative, comforting, and incredibly flavorful. I'll definitely be back again soon.

I did wait about five minutes before someone greeted me. The restaurant wasn't busy, but it looked like the servers were also handling hosting duties. One was bringing food to a table while the other was closing out a check. Once someone was available, I was seated by a very friendly hostess. I ordered the chimichurri steak, and it was excellent. It was easily my favorite part of the meal, and I'd definitely order it again. The person I was with ordered the curry goat and substituted the roti for beans and rice. They really enjoyed it, but we both felt the portion was too small for the price. The quality was there, but I do think the serving could be a bit more generous. We also ordered an appetizer that disappeared almost as soon as it hit the table because it was so good. I also had the Island Onigiri, which I really enjoyed, along with a passion fruit drink that paired well with the meal. Everything tasted fresh and was cooked perfectly. The only small thing I noticed was that the restaurant was a bit chilly, and I felt like my food cooled down pretty quickly because of it.  The music was great, the atmosphere was relaxed, and overall I had a really good experience. There are still quite a few things on the menu I want to try, so I'll definitely be back and will update this review after another visit.

Takeout review Price: $$ (burgers are $19-22) but its comes with seasoned fries (more on that below) and the burgers are HUGE Store: few seats in the back, otherwise takeout mostlly. they call you a "slut" upon entering and leaving (it's entertaining). Food: - Dancehall Burger- sounded interesting but the maduros were a miss. would have been better with avocado and bacon. the slut sauce made this burger. onions were grilled but not caramelized. overall it was a solid burger. - Hollywood Hooker: massive but kind of bland? the texture was spot on for a philly chopped sandwich. but no slut sauce :( get the burger - eggrolls: philly cheesesteak egg roll. it was popular. Solid choice. i couldnt tell it wasnt beef. i added sweet chilli sauce to it which added some spice. - Fries: one batch was hot, crunch, perfectly cooked and had great seasonings. the other batch was soggy and was likely sitting out. if you get the fries fresh its worth it. Service: - Order on kiosks - Trainwreck. online order and suprised when it was ready within 4 minutes. Within 20 minutes I was in the store. 3 people + 2 food delivery drivers waiting. 2 workers - one was cooking while the other disappeared to get supplies / take out the trash. 10 minutes go by- no one gets food. 15 minutes. 1 delivery driver gets food. more people enter - delivery drivers + customers. Only 1 was greeted and told it would be a wait. 20 minutes. no food. The second workers comes back and helps with orders. finally 3 orders come out for in person orders only. 30 minutes, I ask for an update. 5 mintues later I get my food. total time was around 50 minutes not 4 minutes. I would recommend trying it for a good vegan burger and if you have an hour to wait. if you need a quick order or are rushing to catch a concert, show, or game at Barclays I would avoid.

It's very loud as far the shouting when people enter, but even when they call out your name for your order or to ask you a question about your order. I ordered some fries and their banana pudding. The fries were good and so was the banana pudding, which was relatively small. I would say I had a decent first experience here but I'd probably order and stand outside next time around.
