    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance 10/10[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], food was amazing I highly recommend the curry fish. Everything is served family style and delicious. Portions are more than enough. Our waitress was very attentive and helped explain everything I had a question about on the menu.

    Amazing food !! We went for the Indian chinese food and literally every dish we had blew us away with the authenticity and flavors. Only disappointment was the chinese bhel that was sent out raw, but everything else from the chili chicken to the noodles was perfect. Will definitely keep coming back here.

    Triple Szechwan

    Reservations are probably required for busy times but we were able to walk in at about 530pm on a weekday and half the restaurant was empty Took us a while to get seated because the manager was busy on the phone which was annoying. We ordered their Triple Szechwan and at first it came out cold and extremely spicy. So we requested that they remake it and owner made sure it came out correctly spiced and hot second time around. The flavors were really good (albeit lacking salt sometimes) so we'll be back to try their other North Indian dishes as well.

    Tried the Szechuan chicken and burnt garlic noodles and they were absolutely delicious. Really fair prices too. Service was great and [[HIGHLIGHT]]ambiance was charming.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Our go to Indo Chinese spot! This time around though, we tried their Punjabi cuisine. Ordered Prawn Koliwada, Chicken Malwani Curry, and some Rotis. Good food overall. Excellent service by Fedora and Rakesh helped us get a table on a rather busy Saturday evening even without reservations - thank you!

    Paneer Schezwan

    In a city full of Chinese restaurants and Indian restaurants, it's fun to find a rare place that does both. Love the take on Chinese food for Indian sensibilities. Anything paneer will win me over! Chinese Bhel: A unique take on those crispy Indian snacks, this time with Chinese noodles. The texture was a bit too shattering for my tastes, but I appreciated the uniqueness. Gobi Manchurian Dry: A big hit with the table. Kinda amazing that the lowly cauliflower could taste so good. Even better than chicken at some lesser Chinese joints. Paneer Schezwan: So I love Indo-Chinese paneer dishes and the taste here was really good. However, I probably should have gotten the dry version since it felt too soupy for my liking. Hakka Noodles w/ Chicken: Lots of noodles and chicken with some light Indian/Chinese fusion flavors. Solid, but kinda wish it had more spices in the mix.

    Classic Indian place with a large variety. Very yummy. Wait staff was super chill and let us yap long after we were done eating.

    TL:DR- Great casual spot to catch up with friends or casual date spot with good food. Food: 4.5/5 - All of the food we got was solid and flavorful. Service: 5/5 - Nice and attentive Atmosphere: 4/5 - Super chill spot, nothing too fancy just a nice spot to hangout or have a casual date

    We did not have a reservation for 3, entered 4:15 pm. Wanted a quick meal before a show. And golly we picked the best spot. We were seated immediately. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place quickly filled in after we were seated. A quiet little restaurant. Not a ton of seating. Families were in there with young children but it was not loud at all.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff was VERY attentive, our waters were never empty. Multiple people came to check on us. The food was fantastic and came out very quickly. The drink options were very different from any we've ever had but were delicious! I would come here before every show from now on.

    Django mango and Konkan coast mixed drinks

    This place is wonderful! The staff were all friendly, and service was quick. We ordered samosas for an appetizer which were cooked to perfection. The sauces that come with them were so fresh! We ordered some mixed drinks and they were not light on the alcohol! I ordered shrimp moilee which is a coconut based curry with shrimp. I had never had it before, but it sounded really good. It had a light spiciness to it but blew my expectations out of the water! I highly recommend if you want great Indian cuisine near Times Square/Broadway. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The only downside was the bathroom was not the cleanest... but it is NYC and it's possible management was unaware of whomever used the bathroom before I did.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] All in all, 5 stars and I highly recommend!

    My boyfriend and I dined at Spice Symphony in Times Square and was thoroughly impressed with the experience. We started with the chicken lollipops, which were an absolute 10 out of 10. The exterior was perfectly crunchy, while the inside remained deliciously moist. The flavor burst when you start chewing, and the accompanying sauce elevated the dish even further. For drinks, I had the Taste of India, which was deliciously sweet and refreshing. My boyfriend tried the Konan Coast and found it to be on the sweeter side but well-balanced. However, he wasn't a fan of the black rock salt rim--definitely an acquired taste--but once he wiped it off, he really enjoyed the drink. For my entrée, I opted for the Lamb Rajeseani and Goat Laal Maas. Both dishes were fantastic. The goat, which had bone-in meat, had a deeper, more intense flavor profile, enhanced by a subtle grilled or charcoal taste. The lamb was also tender and flavorful, without any bones. The cheese naan was another highlight, though it had more cheese than I'm used to. It almost reminded me of a grilled cheese flatbread, which was a pleasant surprise. Overall, Spice Symphony is a great spot for anyone looking to enjoy delicious Indian cuisine with a modern twist. The combination of flavors and textures in each dish makes it a memorable dining experience. they also mix in Chinese food as well.

    A Hidden Gem That Completely Changed My Perspective on Vegan Food…read more Yesterday was my first visit to Le Botaniste, and I honestly wasn't sure what to expect. The storefront and fresh drinks first caught my attention, so I thought it was mostly a juice or beverage spot. The moment I walked inside, I realized it was so much more. The restaurant has a warm, inviting atmosphere, and everything looked incredibly fresh. You can immediately tell they take pride in the quality of their food. The highlight of our visit was the exceptional customer service from Alan. He welcomed us with a smile, took the time to explain the menu, answered all of our questions, and gave us recommendations based on what we were looking for. His knowledge and enthusiasm made choosing our meals easy. Alan recommended their most popular bowl, the Pasta Bolognese, and mentioned it was also his personal favorite. After just one bite, I understood why. It was rich, hearty, full of flavor, and if no one had told me it was vegan, I never would have guessed. It has officially become one of my favorite plant-based meals. For my mother, Alan recommended the seasonal Mediterranean Bowl, and it was another excellent choice. I asked her if she enjoyed it, and her response was simple: "Yes... and I want more." That pretty much says it all. The drinks were also fresh, refreshing, and paired perfectly with our meals. Honestly, I don't think you can go wrong with anything on their drink menu. Even if you're not vegan, don't let that stop you from trying this place. Le Botaniste proves that plant-based food can be comforting, satisfying, and packed with incredible flavor. A huge thank you to Alan for making our first visit such a memorable one. Great food is important, but great hospitality makes people want to come back. Needless to say, I'll definitely be back to work my way through the rest of the menu.

The bright and beautiful neo-Victorian vibes complement the visually appealing displays of food and decor that recall a 19th century apothecary. With locations around NYC, as well as in Belgium where it all started, La Botaniste serves up "100% organic plant-based food." The bowls are pretty substantive and they have lighter starters/sides too for those who just want to dabble. You can choose one of their signature bowls (the Tibetan Mama, with its satisfying curry base, comes highly recommended), or build your own from a lineup of bases, sauces, toppings, dressings and garnishes. The food tastes fresh and clean, and I include this place in my rotation of healthy quick salad/bowl/vegetarian meal options in the neighborhood. I love that they have raw vegan treats, an increasingly rare find since several of my favorite raw vegan spots in the city closed down over the years. I'll admit I was first lured in by the antiquey aesthetic and the colorful vintage florals, but the food and environment are both very pleasurable.

Aside from that, we had a fantastic experience here at Friedmans Herald Square near Penn Station. They were playing Hilary Duff music, which was such a fun touch since they often match the vibe of whatever is happening at MSG! They even had special Hilary Duff mocktails. The atmosphere is super sweet and cozy. The restaurant was empty when we first walked in, but the second we sat down, it completely packed up! The waiter was very friendly, and even though they weren't able to split the check at the table, they did provide an itemized receipt to make figuring it out easy.

Everything on the menu looked comforting and delicious while still being plant-based and health-conscious. Even though the line was busy, the staff was genuinely friendly.

Since we were there for brunch, I decided to try the P.S. Breakfast ($22) which is tofu scramble, spinach, portobello mushrooms, and corn muffins. My friend got the P.S. Burger ($20) with a gluten-free bun ($2). For the breakfast, the portobello mushrooms were the highlight of the dish. They were very juicy and had strong umami flavor! I love spinach even plain, but I think it could have used a touch more seasoning. The tofu scramble was seasoned, but it could either use more seasoning or more moisture. The corn muffins were dry and crumbly, definitely the worst part of the dish. My friend said that the sauce brought the burger together and hid the fact that it's a Beyond burger. She also mentioned that she didn't feel heavy after eating the burger, which was nice. Despite us telling the restaurant that we had to go to a musical, service was on the slower side. My friend also had to try several times to get to the bathroom, since someone was always inside. However, the staff was friendly and made us feel welcome. I would only recommend P.S. Kitchen if you have a dietary restriction and want a restaurant that has a relaxed ambiance before your Broadway show.

Sentir is 100% vegan, and I would confidently bring even my carnivore friends here without hesitation. If nobody told you it was vegan, you'd simply think you were eating some of the most creative, flavorful Mexican food you've ever had. It's that good. From the moment you walk through the doors, you can tell this isn't just another restaurant. The atmosphere is warm, stylish, and inviting without feeling pretentious. Every member of the staff was incredibly kind (thanks Camila who served us both days!), knowledgeable, and genuinely excited to talk about the menu and the other restaurants in the group. Their passion for what they do shines through in every interaction. The food completely exceeded every expectation we had. Every dish was beautifully presented, packed with bold flavors, and unlike anything we've had before. We found ourselves talking about every bite and immediately discussing what we'd come back to try... which ended up being less than 24 hours later. We were so excited by the food on our first visit that we completely forgot to take pictures! (It became a complete afterthought because we had already scarfed everything down. ) Thankfully, we redeemed ourselves on day two! The cocktails also deserve their own standing ovation. They're creative, beautifully crafted, and every bit as memorable as the food. If you're looking for a restaurant where every detail has clearly been thoughtfully considered from the atmosphere and service to the food and drinks, Sentir absolutely delivers. We travel to NYC often and almost never eat at the same restaurant twice because there are so many amazing places to try. The fact that we chose to come back the very next day says everything you need to know. Sentir has officially earned a permanent spot on our "must visit" list every time we're in that part of the city. What We Ate (and absolutely LOVED): Sentir Guac - Easily one of the freshest and most flavorful guacamoles we've ever had. It was served with chips and a deep fried tofu that was reminiscent of a "chicken skin" or something along those lines. I've never tried anything like it and it was good and unique! Carne Asada Tacos - Perfectly seasoned with amazing texture and incredible flavor. Al Pastor Chicken Tacos - Sweet, savory, smoky, and absolutely delicious. Cream of Corn - I wasn't expecting a bowl of corn to stand out the way it did. It was warm, comforting and cheesy. I just wish it came with something to dip with. Unfortunately too much was dripping through the fork and I wanted to savor it all! Chile Rellenos - Beautifully prepared with layers of flavor in every bite. It was cooked to perfection and melted in your mouth! Tamal de Carne - Tender, comforting, and packed with incredible flavor. What We Drank: Sentir Michelada - One of the best my husband ever had. The chose Modelo as the beer Little Pitcher - This was a bunch drink. It had grapefruit & orange juice (among other things) but it was shockingly unique and dangerously easy to drink. Café con Ron - The perfect twist or play on an espresso martini but a million times better! Nutty Olivia - I believe this was on "special" and it was a mooth, creative, and another cocktail I'd order again in a heartbeat. It contains gin, which my husband doesn't like but he must have stolen at least 3 sips before I told him to worry about his own drink! Final thought: If a restaurant is good enough to make us skip trying somewhere new in New York City and instead return the very next day, that's about the highest compliment we can give. Whether you're vegan, vegetarian, or a lifelong meat eater, do yourself a favor go!!! I have a feeling you'll be planning your second visit before you even finish your first.

Beyond Sushi was in Midtown near where I was staying, so I ended up coming here---on Valentine's Day, which happened to be a mistake! Since I didn't have a reservation, the lady who checked me in told me I had to find a seat at the bar. Her attitude was not the best, as when I looked over the menu and made a decision on what I wanted to get, she dismissed me when I waved her over, saying she is not the person taking orders. Um, okay? Then who is? One guy at the bar was nicer, and was able to take my order. I started off with a hot tea since NYC was cold in February, and then decided to have as much as I could of two dishes---the "chicken" yakitori skewers and the Korean BBQ skillet. The skewers came in a set of two, with a white mayo-like sauce drizzle and pickled cucumber on the side. Super delectable, though very filling because of the protein! The skillet was made with classic Chunk Foods protein, the go-to plant-based option for all the meat dishes at City Roots restaurants as far as I know. This was incredibly filling, but the sauce and the texture were all around delicious as well. I could NOT bother to finish the brussels sprouts the skillet came with---way too much to stomach, and I was going to focus on the "meats" since I can always have brussels any other time! The bill by the end of it was PRICEY. That's why I only go to one of these restaurants as a special treat when I visit NYC. Watch out if you order hot tea...$13!! I guess that's the NYC way, but still!
