    Table service menu
    Eve S.

    Great vegan cafe across from the train station Whether you choose table service, something from the fridge to go, or something premade from the case you will be happy you came here. It is all healthy and delicious.

    "Meatball" sub
    Jerry L.

    The search for gluten free or vegan options can sometimes be hard but this place makes it very easy and simple, everything on the menu is either gluten free and/or vegan. There is an area where you can make a plate by weight and a full menu with good descriptions of what each dish contains. The space is bright and spacious with plenty of seating. It's casual but the servers will bring items to your table and clean up after you finish. We ordered from the menu, I went with the lentil burger which came with sweet potato fries plus beet ketchup and my wife had the "meatball" sub on gluten free bread, it has a nut based "cheese" but there is an option for nut less cheese alternative. I thought the food was good and there were plenty of options especially for those who have certain dietary restrictions or just want to avoid certain things. It's also kosher.

    Something Before Our Meal

    You can find a Vegan item or two in any Westchester County restaurant. But in all of Westchester, Pureganic in Rye, is Vegan head to toe. My husband loves all types of meat- but since my daughter is visiting from the West Coast and hubs is incorporating more Vegan meals (especially when she visits), we ditched our "protein" brunches- for something she can naturally be part of. I've been eyeing Pureganic for some time, but glad hubs beat me to the punch when we came for a Vegan Father's Day brunch. The cherry on top? Here, you will not be confused if a Vegan dish was made on the same griddle eggs and meat were cooked on or asking the server, "can you leave out the dairy and make it Vegan?" Because EVERYTHING is plant-based even desserts! Space is clean with several tables adequately spaced. Menu is varied and so is the entire range of simple, prepared room-temperature plant-based foods which your server will plate built on your selections on the spot. For cooked foods and if you're dining in, order and pay at the counter first- then meals are brought to you. Between my daughter's Tofu Scramble, Vegan sausage, hubs' Waffle and my White Bean Veggie Burger, food was nice and different.

    Love that this delicious vegan cafe moved to Harrison! Everything is so fresh and yummy that even non-vegans will enjoy the dishes. All the food is made with healthy ingredients. Highly recommend the waffles, pizza (with vegan cheese!), pasta, and Buffalo cauliflower. There are fresh juices available and a whole salad bar as well. They even have dessert! The owner and staff are so friendly. Make a stop here for sure!

    We've been going to Pureganic for many years and still enjoy the quality and taste of the foods served. My husband is a functional med. doc., and we appreciate all the quality ingredients used (e.g., olive oil & coconut sugar as opposed to canola/crappy oils and refined sugars). The new-ish items added to the menu are superb. There's even wine and champagne offered! The service is always friendly, and the owner, Moshi, is always gracious and welcoming. The price is right for the kind of organic ingredients used; it's not exorbitant. If you want to pay McDonald's price, go to McDonald's. But if you care about your health and eat healthy delish foods, go to Pureganic. FYI - there's free parking at the location.

Although both sandwiches were barely warm -- almost to the point where my husband was considering sending it back to the kitchen. He did not as he didn't want to wait for another sandwich to be brought out. The hand-cut French fries were very good. The coleslaw was okay -- certainly not the best I've had, but far from the worst. They also brought out two types of classic complimentary pickles for the table. Again, they were just okay -- I've definitely had better. One thing to note: the classic half sandwich & cup of soup combo comes with fries, but if you order just a classic sandwich, it does not come with fries, both priced at $17.99. My husband got the cup of lentil soup, which he enjoyed. I ordered the potato salad as a side dish, it was very vinegar-heavy and not really to my taste. I ended up bringing it home and doctoring it up, which made it much better. They had good deli mustard on the table, I asked for Russian dressing since I like that on my pastrami sandwich -- that was good. And of course, you've for to have a Dr. Brown's Cel-Ray or any one of the other Dr Brown flavors. All in all, we enjoyed our lunch. Between the food, the service, and the fact that the place is dated, I'd give it a 3 1/2 stars overall. Free on-site parking is a big parking lot as there are several other stores right in the plaza. I wanted to note that this Deli is dairy free. So no chocolate milk, but you can get a classic egg cream.

This isn't a fancy place--they close early, there are no white tablecloths, no wine list, and the décor leans toward gray veneer booths with red seats. But that's exactly the point. You come here for the food, not the frills. The pickles were outstanding--crisp, flavorful, and the kind you keep reaching for between bites. We both had pastrami on fresh, soft rye with great mustard, and it hit the spot completely. The fries were just right too--crispy overall with those smaller, extra-crunchy pieces mixed in. There's something really satisfying about a place like this. Simple, honest food done well. After a full day of work, it made for a relaxed and genuinely enjoyable date night. We'll definitely be back.

Kind of unexpected, and not complex flavor at all. The soup didn't have any discernible flavor. Not bad, but certainly not great. Half sour pickles: again, kinda underflavored. Cut in slices rather than served whole (i think i got one whole pickle--pretty stingy). Cole slaw: this was actually quite good and the highlight of the meal. Egg cream: not enough seltzer while still being kinda meh flavorwise. Pastrami sandwich: the meat was somewhat dry and lacked that peppery pastrami flavor you expect from, what?, pastrami. The bread wasn't very fresh so I ended up not eating much of the bread. Small sandwich for $28 or $29. Potato knish: perfectly cooked and crispy on the outside. Again, though, not much flavor or seasoning. Overall, my meal cost $55 before tip and I'd get a better meal of all the same at any diner in New Jersey. Decent, but not worth coming back with so many better options out there.

A woman with two children at a nearby table spilled a drink, and no one came to clean it up. She eventually had to move the table herself, with her children. On top of everything, the prices are astronomical. I ordered water with lemon and extra lemon, only to receive frozen lemon slices that were impossible to squeeze for juice.

The food wasn't bad--it was simply mediocre and underwhelming. The biggest issue was that several dishes were underseasoned and lacked the bold flavors I expect from a good Cantonese restaurant.
