Hidden inside Chelsea market this is easily a hidden gem that should earn legendary status for their soft serve sundae. Gluten free, vegan and all sesame? That doesn't sound good or does it? Well this is easily the best soft serve I've ever tasted in my life. It's creamy, tasty, addictive to the very last bite and will be mentioned to my friends and family if they ever visit New York. I got the swirl which is a mix of original sesame, black sesame with a drizzle of black sesame chocolate and a wonderful addition of some tahini. Unforgettable experience! The staff is also super nice and patient explaining the concept and letting me try some samples.

Ran back to Seed + Mill the second I heard they brought back their BLACK SESAME vegan soft serve and omg... this might honestly be my favorite flavor they've done yet. I always stop by whenever I'm at Chelsea Market for their tahini soft serve, and they're currently serving a black sesame flavor until the end of May. ＊Black Sesame Tahini Soft Serve $8.5 Their soft serve is made with oat milk and tahini, topped with halva crumbles, and you can ask for extra drizzles for FREE. I went with black sesame and tahini sauce because there's no such thing as too much black sesame for me. It was nutty, creamy, and not overly sweet at all. The cup looked small, but there were halva crumbles on top AND hidden throughout the bottom. Every bite had that sweet sesame crunch. Definitely not one I'd want to share hehe. Their halva is my favorite and I always keep some at home. The pistachio flavor is so good with yogurt. read more

I was really happy to find a place that makes these types of sesame-based desserts, it's definitely something different from the usual sweets. After eating around Chelsea Market, this is a great spot to finish your visit. The tahini soft serve and halva flavors are unique, rich, and not overly sweet, which I really liked.

I'm a huge black sesame girly, so I was excited to try tahini soft serve! I ordered the original and matcha sundae, which includes halva bits and your choice of drizzle. I couldn't taste much matcha, but the tahini was great! It might be a bit of an acquired taste and has a pretty strong flavor, but I really enjoyed it. While it's small, it's quite dense and filling. The halva bits added some really nice texture. read more

I had actually left Chelsea Market already but I walked by the window and saw the sign for a tahini soft serve, and immediately went back in to get it. I'm a huge sesame lover and this ice cream did not disappoint. They had two flavors of soft serve, white or black sesame, but you could also get a swirl. Both flavors were super yummy and had that nutty sesame flavor. The tahini and halva toppings were perfect, and it wasn't extremely sweet. I was also surprised to learn that it's vegan, I totally couldn't tell! One of my favorite ice creams I've had read more

A lovely little stand in Chelsea Market that specializes in Halva. I decided to try their sundae with their seasonal swirl of black sesame and pumpkin sesame ice creams. It came with crumbled halva and drizzles of black sesame and tahini. The ice cream was smooth and nutty and you can taste all the elements of the pumpkin and sesame. This is a perfect fall dessert to end a meal at Chelsea market! read more

Both gluten free and dairy free- you don't need lactaid for this dessert. I opted for the chocolate sauce on top and really glad I did.

The tahini sundae and the sea salt chocolate halvah were both so good! I fell in love with the tahini soft serve and ended up buying some of the chocolate tahini sauce it came with to take home. The sundae is not only topped with halvah but also has a generous amount at the bottom so that you get to enjoy it throughout. It's so rich but just the right amount of sweet + savory. I would absolutely come back to have this again! I love that they have such a simple, straightforward menu. Obviously you have to love sesame to want to try this spot, but if you do it's 100% worth it! read more

Good quality soft serve. This tahini soft serve had a unique flavor. It has that hint of sesame but also a rich, creamy taste as well. The taste of it probably isn't for everyone but I kind of enjoyed it. The common flavors of typical ice cream and soft serve will start to blend together and it gets hard to find a unique soft serve, but this shop delivers! They have other exciting tahini/sesame flavored desserts as well, and samples to try them out too. Their unique flavors and options are exciting and they deliver it well, with friendly and efficient service. Located inside Chelsea Market, this dessert spot was worth a visit for their unique tahini soft serve. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Plus the atmosphere in the market is also a vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

It is a small portion which is the only reason I would not give it a 10/10. Otherwise, if you are a fan of the bitterness of tahini, this is a fantastic dessert. WOULD I GO BACK? Yes!

Lactose intolerant friends and vegans rejoice! Seed + Mill and their oat milk tahini soft serve is one of the best ways to curb a sweet tooth. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's definitely my favorite stall in Chelsea Market but can easily be missed with how crowded it can get.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If you've never heard of halva, it's almost like a thick crumbly paste made with tahini and it's delicious. It melts in your mouth and provides the perfect texture to accompany the oat milk soft serve and black sesame/tahini drizzle. There's halva crumbles on the top and bottom of the cup so there's plenty to get a good taste of it. The owners are really sweet and will usually let you sample both the chocolate and vanilla soft serves. The sundae is ~$8 which is a bit pricey, but I always share it because it's really decadent and I feel like you get a ton of toppings with it. It is very sweet so a few bites is usually enough for me. Definitely give this place a try the next time you're in Chelsea Market! read more

Came in through the High Line exit into the Chelsea Market. Needed a little sweet treat after my walk! It's located towards the middle of the market and inside one of the plaza esq areas. Black And White Sesame - Really glad I got a mix and could taste both flavors! The black sesame was my favorite though. It comes with a little peanut butter crumble on the side and what seemed like toffee or caramel on the bottom. One cup was 8.70. A little steep but I'm chalking it up to being in Manhattan and that it's speciality ice cream.

Tahini Soft Serve 8.5/10 sooo creamy and delicious definitely comes through with the strong oat milk flavor. the tahini drizzle was nutty and better than i imagined. the halva, though a good texture, i wish was a bit less sweet. im not a huge ice cream girlie to begin so the whole thing became difficult to finish it by myself but would be perfect for two! read more

Seed + Mill is AMAZING!! I actually first tried their Halva in upstate NY at an organic market. It was awesome to get to try their storefront in Chelsea Market!! I LOVE tahini anything, but their tahini based soft serve is the best non-dairy ice cream I've had it my life!! Yes it is pricey, but it is so creamy, fluffy, and delicious!! I asked for all the toppings available so it has halva, tahini drizzle, chocolate drizzle, and sea salt. Both the chocolate and vanilla soft serve options are amazing and I can't wait to try it again! I'm personally not into Halva, but my mom LOVES it so there's something for both of us whenever we visit. The service is really quick and I really appreciated the staff allowing me to sample ice cream before purchasing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It is more like a "stand", so you just pick up the ice cream and go.

I'm not an expert on halva, but I do know a thing or two about a good ice cream. And Seed + Mill's ice cream sundae is top notch. It's a small storefront in Chelsea Market. When we went, there were plenty of lines for nearby restaurants, but no wait for this spot. My friend and I each got the sundae, which was a good choice because you definitely do not want to share! The sundae has a vegan tahini soft serve base with a good amount of halva and topped with black sesame and sesame drizzle. It was so nutty and delicious. The price is more than worth it. It can be a little hard to eat as it's topped up, so I suggest finding a nearby corner and just standing to devour. You'll be finished pretty fast, trust me. read more

From the Business

Specialties

Seed + Mill is breathing modern life into an ancient seed by offering unexpected flavors of tahini and halva and inspiring new ways to use sesame in everyday healthy cooking. Our organic tahini is made of the highest quality Ethiopian seeds. Tahini is also the foundational ingredient for our artisanal halva and other treats. Our wide range of halva flavors vary from the more traditional halva such as marble, traditional sesame and pistachio to unexpected combinations like chocolate orange, coffee and toasted coconut dark chocolate. Tahini is vegan-friendly, dairy free, gluten free, full of flavor, and exceptionally nutritious. We are also serving a vegan salted tahini caramel soft serve with a drizzle of tahini and halva crumbles on top! Would you like to contact us? Please send us a message through the 'Message the Business' button. Our store is located in an open market space, so we often don't hear the phone.

History

Established in 2016.

Seed + Mill is founded by three women: Lisa Mendelson from Israel, Monica Molenaar from NYC and Rachel Simons from Australia. Lisa was reminded on a trip to her native Israel of the tahini and halva she had been unable to find in New York. She packed a suitcase full of her beloved sesame treats to bring back to the United States and it was through sharing this halva and tahini supply with Monica and Rachel that the concept for Seed + Mill was born. After opening in January 2016, Seed + Mill has received a lot of positive reviews in The New York Times, Bloomberg, Grubstreet, Tasting Table, Epicurious and Martha Stewart, amongst others. In 2017 their goat milk tahini ice-cream won a StarChefs NY Rising Star Award. Seed + Mill has recently opened two additional sesame carts in Whole Foods Bryant Park and Whole Foods Closter.

Overall - (4/5) - not a bad place and good for GF customers and those staying in the hotel.

I paid $9 for a tiny square of vegan pizza that looked more like a sample than a slice. The toppings slid off immediately, so eating it felt like trying to balance vegetables on a sponge.

For $9, I expected an actual decent vegan pizza, not a tiny piece of sad bread with toppings that gave up before I did. I appreciate that they offer vegan options, but this needs serious work. The portion was small, the crust tasted cheap, the toppings didn't stay on, and overall it was not worth the money. Vegan food does not have to be this depressing.

I had such a fun experience at See No Evil Pizza. The pizza flavors were incredibly inventive…read more(definitely not your standard slice) and everything we tried felt thoughtfully put together. The arancini was a standout: perfectly crisp on the outside, creamy inside, and served with a rich, delicious sauce that tied it all together. We ended on the tiramisu, which was absolutely worth saving room. It was light, flavorful, and a perfect finish to the meal. What really elevated the experience, though, was the staff. Everyone was genuinely kind and helpful--especially notable for New York--and it made the whole evening feel relaxed and welcoming. A small heads-up: it's a bit tricky to find, so give yourself extra time. That said, the hidden, underground subway setting is part of the charm and makes the whole experience feel unique. I'd love to see more restaurants creatively use these kinds of spaces in the future.

I'm not sure why this place has made it onto so many lists, but it was pretty mediocre all-around…read more In other circumstances I might have found the colocation with the subway charming, but the space is rather cramped and hectic - to say, I was hoping the space would be something to overlook for the sake of the food. To start with the good: the arancini were perfectly passable, and the Sicilian pie was enjoyed by all. I would describe it as more of a Detroit style actually, with a super crispy crust and nice textural contrast. On the other hand, we did not enjoy the seasonal vegetable pie or the nepo pie. I generally really like this sort of no-cheese, umami-heavy pizza, but the nepo was so salty! I'm not sure what specific ingredient was missing, but missing it was. My hopes for a recreation of the rossa pie I enjoyed at Farina prior to their closure were dashed. As for the vegetable pie, the vegetables tasted like the frozen veggies one might find in what was once marketed as a "TV dinner". It was a shame, since the sauce of the white pie was otherwise pretty good.
