Fresh, vibrant ambiance elevates the dining experience, complemented by a thoughtfully curated menu featuring a creative variety of dishes across multiple sections. The collection of shareable small plates is beautifully plated, and the attentive service team ensures an exceptional experience from start to finish. We continue to be impressed by how the menu evolves year after year and season after season, always introducing fresh ideas while maintaining outstanding quality. Most notably, the current dessert offerings are elevated, original, and memorable. Chocolate lovers shouldn't miss the Koji Mont Blanc, while those who prefer lighter, fruit-forward desserts will appreciate the Melons--a beautifully presented combination of layered watermelon, ice sorbet, and cream that is as refreshing as it is visually stunning. read more

abcV - Koji Mont Blanc - What a truly Amazing original secret treasure dessert layered with multiple profound flavor elements! - Vegetarian Near Me - New York, New York

We were in NYC for our celebration and dined at abcV on our first night. We had a fantastic anniversary dinner at abcV and Yanette the manager made our celebration even more special! We are veg/vegan and were really looking forward to coming to abcV for dinner having heard so much about it. All the options we were recommended were excellent (cocktails, avo lettuce cups, humus, beets, mushroom bolognese, koji tofu and chocolate cake), very unique dishes, presented exquisitely. Yanette and the staff provided excellent service. The decor ambience and open kitchen have a nice chic vibe, definitely a date place or for celebrations. Highly recommend! read more

With a gift certificate for $150 at ABCv we didn't think we could spend it all because most of the prices are reasonable, and we cannot eat that much for breakfast. We ordered most things of the menu to try and to take to go and ended up exceeding our limit by $22! We tried and liked the following: -harry's berries strawberries - fresh -california dates - scrumptious -soft scrambled eggs - best eggs Ive had in a while -wild mushroom poached eggs - tons of mushrooms! -dosa - doesn't reheat well but is gf and so delicious! -gluten free almond flour pancakes - also doesn't reheat well but are very tasty and chewy when fresh. too bad there's no plain whipped cream in house since we don't eat bananas. Maybe half the dishes included banana in some form. - root reboot pressed juice: beet, carrot, ginger, lemon - tasty! - cappuccinos - standard and good I will return for the soft scrambled eggs and the atmosphere. Soft, friendly, bright, delicate, sunny! read more

The food is interesting and tasty, and the service is excellent. My only complaint is that the portions are quite small for the price.

Went here for an early dinner - food was pricy but good. The dishes were innovative and had interesting flavors. We especially liked the yam and squash with focaccia. They were severely understaffed when I was there, to the point that multiple people around us cancelled their dishes and opted to leave earlier. However, the manager came over to our table took our order and made sure we were taken care of in a timely manner. She was extremely kind and I greatly appreciated how she stepped in when they did not have a lot of servers. In large part because of their great staff, and also because of the interesting vegetarian options, I would go back. read more

Food was a little overpriced for the quantity and taste but the quality was good. The corn wontons were spicy and yummy. The hummus was fresh and yummy.

I have been a long time fan as they make vegetarian upscale and yummy. I hadn't been In a while and today i spontaneously stopped by as I was in the hood. I tried the hemp seed burger. I was hesitant because veggie burgers can be dry and lack flavor. This was AMAZING. It ate like a juicy burger with a lovely crunchy. I'll be craving this. read more

Lovely space, everything can be veganized, and I love how the menu changes with the season. The carrot wontons and chestnut dessert were unreal! The service was also super, Adam was a great server and multiple employees checked in on our table throughout the night read more

My friend and I had a res on a busy weekend night. Cute spot, really kind servers. The food was OK, honestly not all of it was worth the price in my opinion. We started with the dosa and lettuce cups. They were both OK, nothing to write home about, and the lettuce cups had a really interesting kick. The bolognese was a standout - delicious! And then came dessert. Things went very right and very wrong. The ice cream sundae was delicious and unique - a generous portion that we could've shared. But the apple tart unfortunately did not live up to the same standard. It tasted of salt and water, with no real sweetness despite how delicious it looked (my friend and I both tried it and were unsure if this was how it was supposed to taste or if someone had swapped sugar for salt). read more

My meal was absolutely delicious, and I really enjoyed the creative vegetarian and vegan options. Artichoke - creamy as the name says, with breadcrumbs to provide a little crunch, and subtle tartness from lemon and freshness from the herbs. The sourdough it's served with has great developed flavor and nice open crumb. The server told me this is seasonal, so get it before it's gone. Steamed tofu - the tofu is just a bit firmer than a pudding, covered with a tart and savory tomato-ey broth. Mushrooms add a bit of textural variety and savoriness. The best parts are the crispy yuba and toasty fried peanuts, which add a crunch and nutty flavor. The cilantro helps brighten everything up as well. Mont Blanc - rich, fluffy, and nutty, without being too sweet. The whole thing kind of explodes after breaking into it because of the hard shell, but that's not a big deal. Easy to forget it's totally vegan. Three courses came out to $94 with tax and tip. While the cost was worth it, I think this would've worked out better coming with a larger group. Splitting four dishes between two people would've reduced the cost a bit and hit the right portion size. read more

Went back for their brunch and had the dosa with sambal, egg, cheddar cheese, mint, and dill. The dosa was tasty and the texture was good. It was very filling as well. However, it did lack flavor -- it should have been paired with chutney like dosa usually is or had more sambal / Asian spices and flavor. The honey ginger tonic was light and refreshing. read more

Heard good things about them and came for their vegetarian brunch with my vegan friend. The food was pretty good, especially for american vegetarian fare - nothing was mindblowing to me as someone who eats across the spectrum, but you could tell there were quality ingredients being used and care being taken into the dishes they offered. The cappuccino was just okay (admittedly, as a coffee snob) The pancakes were fluffy, but delicate, and fall apart easily but they tasted light and bright which was enjoyable. The lettuce cups were also tasty, and quite light. Definitely add this to your list if you're a vegetarian, and I hear they have a good dinner service too. For me, it's a place I would take my vegetarian friends. Keep up the good work! read more

abcV has a lovely atmosphere and on a Friday night it wasn't packed, you could likely get seated without a reservation. I tried the sparkling elixir beverage and it wasn't the strongest start. I'd prefer it a bit more sweet and with stronger elements of the fruit flavors. Like many others have mentioned, the price point is pretty steep for what you're getting. They're all small plates in the $20-$35 range with really just a few bites of vegetables. We tried the "crispy smoked chicken of the woods mushroom" which was essentially fried mushroom -- definitely the most "meaty" dish we had that evening. It was well fried with a seasoned crispy exterior, the sauces accompanying it were just fine. The market beets had some of my favorite flavors, they were refreshing and felt like a variety with each bite with the avocado puree and elements of tartare. The dosa was fine but would be superior at most Indian restaurants, it was just a plain dosa with chutneys on the side - no masala filling. The seared tofu was made with a very soft silken tofu and served with roasted mushroom and broccolini. The vegetables felt a bit dry but the tofu was nice. The roasted murasaki yam was delicious, it had savory elements of black and white sesame and was brightened by a squeeze of lime juice. It was a Japanese yam so it was dense, starchy, and slightly sweet; the dish could have maybe benefitted from some more variety in textures. Overall, abcV is one of the nicer vegan restaurants in Manhattan, maybe worth splurging occasionally when the menu rotates. I probably won't be back for a while as it's hard to justify the price point of the dishes, but there really were no bad bites. read more

Came here with high expectations. Don't go to many places at all that are purely plant based. Impressed for what we got in general. It was an assortment of many dishes. Flavors were good but not jumping out at me with full vibrancy. Staff and everyone was nice, as was the service. It was a bit chilly in the city so being inside the restaurant was a nice and cozy break. I don't think I'll go here again just because I'm not too much into plant based dining as this place presents itself and actually is. I feel like I could go elsewhere around the city and get very good dishes that are plant based without going to a strictly plant based restaurant. It was a good change from the types of places that I normally frequent. Company I was with was excellent which made the food that much more comforting. read more

Extremely slow service and way too overpriced! Similar priced restaurants offer much better quality and quantity of food with better service. Whole roasted cauliflower and California dates were good but came in very little quantity given the price, and campanelle was passable, again very small portion size. Ambience could have been better too - this place is extremely noisy. read more

Made a last minute weekday dinner reservation as we have been curious about a vegetarian restaurant and was seated right away upon entering. Service was nice (I made a mistake in my order and the lady was understanding). Though it took quite a while for things to come out. Given this place is tapas style, we would eat a lil and then would have to wait some time before the next dish came out which impacted the flow a bit. Food itself was alright - Perhaps my expectations were not right but thankfully our waitress did let us know this is tapas style and recommended 5-6 plates for two. Everything did taste fresh and healthy though just found everything to be a tad underwhelming given the price point. Vibe was generally cute. It does get loud at peak hours so something to note. It may be that vegetarian dishes are not for me but do think it's worth a try for those who enjoy or are interested in vegetation cuisines. read more

This place seemed like a great find. However, the service and the ambiance is so terrible, it really deserves the one star. It's not worth the market price for what you're paying. These were the major issues we noticed: - Stained menus - There is nothing more appetizing than being given a menu with hideous food stains from multiple previous customers. Please if the average cost of a meal is $50-100 per person, you can afford to print a few new menus. - Small plates - yes, the concept is tapas style food. All of the portions are small. However, this is not spelled out anywhere in the menu. For ordering purposes, I would estimate 5-6 dishes for two people (if you are moderately hungry) - Really uncomfortable chairs that make the dining experience unpleasant at best. - Poorly paced tapas. Okay.. so it's kind of ridiculous how little effort goes into prepping the food to get to the table. It's done in a way that really destroys your ability to enjoy eating it. - Rude staff all around.

Beautiful vegetarian restaurant by Chef Jean-Georges. The dishes were unique and yummy, but we didn't quite think they were good enough for the fine dining price and portions. Still, a great place to splurge for special occasions especially if you have strictly vegetarian friends!! They recommend family style and ordering 2-3 dishes per person, with each dish being around $30. **old review from summer 2023** read more

Favorite dish was the walnut bolognese or the purple yam. Dosa - it is unstuffed and pretty basic, better to get it at an authentic indian place instead. Beets - this time they were a fibrous and less flavorful. Chickpea hummus - kind of bland, wish we had gotten a different starter. Beluga lentils - not worth it. We only tried it because they were out of the cauliflower. read more

abcV is an incredible intimate dining experience for anyone who appreciates vegetables at their peak flavor. The small plates sharing format means we got to try several dishes and portion sizes were great where 4 was enough for two people. My favorite dish was actually the green hummus. They also had a few off menu specials including this special grain that is harvested by burning. Decor is beautiful and the ambience is romantic and calming with the light hues and quiet chatter. Service was top notch. Note the entrance can be tricky to find as there is no signage outsid . read more

I knew before going here that abcV was vegetarian, not vegan. However, it was advised that vegan options were available and I could ask for them, yay! My very short experience here was disappointing. I went for breakfast on a weekday. Upon arrival I asked if they had a separate vegan menu, they do not, so I asked which menu items were vegan. I was told the ones with eggs were not vegan, but everything else was. I pointed out the menu item with cheddar, confirming that it was vegan cheddar. The waiter then said something like oh yeah, that is not vegan either. I continued asking questions about other menu items because one had honey and bee pollen (also not vegan). As I continued asking about menu items and then being told that oh yeah those weren't vegan either, I lost any confidence in being able to eat something vegan here as the waiter didn't seem to know what was or wasn't vegan, so I left. Such a bummer. I don't recommend this place for vegans. read more

Hmmm... I have many thoughts on vegan/vegetarian places like this and I am debating whether or not to spew them here. I think I will hold off. Ehhhh.... okay fine I will summarize quickly: $32 for a head of cauliflower is wwiiiiiiiiilllldddddddd. It's probably like 300 calories total lmao. If I'm spending that much I at least want to walk out feeling satiated you know? Again, this is not a knock on abcV, it's just the whole vegan-fine dining industry as a whole. Rant over. On the other end of the $32 coin, that head of cauliflower was ODE*! I don't even know how cauliflower could be that delicious. I would have lost a lot of money if we had a bet that I would say "oh my goddddd this is unreal..." about some cauliflower lol. Thankfully, I'm not a betting man. Unless it's on myself, then I completely double down. The dosa and mushroom walnut bolognese were also unbelievable. A similar out of body experience that I had with the cauliflower. I still don't even know what dosa is but it was HITTIN! The interior of this place had me feeling like I am in Greece. But not one of those places that you can feel they try super hard to get the Greece feel. I don't know how to articulate what I am trying to say, but yeah. When I walked in here I felt like I could take a clean breath. A very calming space. I feel like they must have a crazy air purifier in here or something ahahaa. In terms of pure taste of food, this was the best vegan restaurant I have ever been to, and I've probably been to like 9 at this point, just for context. IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov__ *ode (O-Dee) = At this point it is almost entirely context based, can really mean whatever you want it to mean: alot, really good, too much, etc..

I'm by no means a vegetarian, but I prefer abcv to abc. We had a reservation for a Friday around 6pm. It wasn't too full but most of the tables were taken. I appreciated how much space there was in btw tables. There was a prefixes menu on the table but the entire table has to agree. We opted for ordering a few plates from the menu. Surprisingly my favorite dish was the avocado lettuce cups. It had a surprising kick. Otherwise the other dishes were good, but not memorable. They were the focaccia, green hummus, the shiitake mushrooms, the spaghetti and the potato dumplings. We then split two desserts. A watermelon one with a sorbet frozen on a skin of the watermelon and a piece of chocolate cake. The watermelon one was def very interesting and surprisingly very good! read more

Came here on a Tuesday evening for an early dinner before a show. We arrived for our reservation as the restaurant was opening and were taken straight to our table. The dining space is airy, light and bright. Our waiter was very friendly and helpful with walking us through popular menu items. For dinner we shared the dosa with chutneys, crisp cabbage, off menu hen of the woods special and the spinach spaghetti. While we enjoyed every single dish, we both agreed that the spinach spaghetti was the best bite we ate on our entire trip to NYC. It was perfectly al dente with just the right amount of brightness and Parmesan. I cannot recommend it enough. Will for sure be back! read more

Food was nuts! The beets were a perfect balance between fresh, earthy, and sweet! The dosa was so hearty and crispy, which was nice for a vegetarian restaurant. Plus, the cocktail was a top 5 espresso martini for me with the nice balance of bite and sweet. The interior of the restaurant was super welcoming and the music was on point. Also, I liked that you could look into the kitchen. The only reason I took off one star was because out of the two servers one of them rushed us and was quite short on there answers, which felt rude. We hadn't even finished every dish on the table and they cleaned up the whole table around the dish, which felt like they were pushing us out. read more

Beautiful decor and innovative dishes, and service was absolutely wonderful as well. However, I personally didn't love any of the dishes we got - felt that they generally lacked flavour. Still such a beautiful restaurant though! read more

Really delicious meal! The flavors were amazing, I did see them on worth it and always wanted to try. My favorites were the beets, lettuce cups, cauliflower and mushroom dishes! It is pretty pricey but felt it was just right amount of food. I kept getting the ginger tonic which was refreshing but it was too hot and humid for us to be seated outside, it was about 95 out at the time. Wasn't really comfortable and got bit by mosquitoes. Next time hopefully can get a table indoors. read more

We came to ABCV, Jean Georges plant based restaurant. Inside it was warm and welcoming. Our waiter was fantastic in that he was friendly, attentive and made great recommendations on the menu.

We had: - Cabbage Salad: excellent fancy coleslaw - Crispy Smoked Chicken of the Woods Mushroom - excellent , very good - Dosa - good but i've had better - Whole Roasted Cauliflower- amazing - Matsutake Mushrooms in Yuzu Broth - very good - Mushroom Walnut Bolognese- sooooo good - Seared Tofu - good, loved the vegetables inside more than the tofu - Dessert: Tart (amazing), Chocolate Cake (dry) It's expensive and some of the dishes weren't amazing but overall loved this place and will be back. read more

AbcV was on our list for a long time and it was an overall great experience! We were seated in the back so we lost out on some of the ambiance of being seated in the middle of then restaurant and our server was a little slow to take out order. However our meal started out with a bang as the spring dosa was the highlight of our meal - it was refreshing and excellent take on a dosa opting for avocado and spring greens over potatoes and sambar. We ordered two pasta dishes the lemon one was a bit too lemony for our taste but the mushroom bolognese was excellent. It's definitely a pricey restaurant so unsure if I'll be back soon but the rest of the menu does seem appetizing. read more

They get points for creativity with the food but the service was atrocious. It took us literally an entire hour to get any food and even then, it was just a small thing of bread. Needless to say, we were starving. Drinks also took forever - both the first and second (like 20-30 min). For food, I was impressed I left fairly full given the lack of meat and was also impressed by the creativity of the dishes but sadly, none were particularly good to me. The best was the whole roasted cauliflower and the texture of the dosa (warning the chutneys are spicy), but everything else was blah, including the mushroom bolognese that people seem to rave about and the homemade tofu. Given the terrible service, lackluster food, and high prices, sadly would not recommend. read more

Wow! I just wrapped up a lovely dinner at abcV. Everything from the moment we sat down until the moment we left was a special experience. The service was top notch, we weren't rushed at all (we dined for three hours) and our server offered helpful guidance to help craft a delicious meal. Although they were offering a Restaurant Week menu, we opted to select items off the regular menu and I'm glad we did. Ordered: California dates ($17): Yes, spending $17 on four dates was a lot, but do I regret ordering this dish? Nope. I wouldn't have combined these ingredients on my own but I have to say that it worked. The creamy coconut yogurt, delicious sesame flavor from the tahini, crunch from the pistachios and sea salt and fresh mint and lemon all sitting on top of the fudgy dates-- yum! Market beets ($22): While I enjoyed this dish- it was kind of like beet tartare, I didn't think it was super special. It was enjoyable but I probably would skip it on my next visit. Tomato and stone fruit salad ($24): The tomato was super good and ripe and the Sherry dressing was a nice compliment to the sweet fruit, but I wished there was more fruit and also a larger portion for $24. Grilled oakwood shiitake mushroom ($30): The mushrooms were tasty and the presentation was really beautiful! The grilled onion and green goodness dressing were the perfect complement to these tasty mushrooms. It was pretty filling. Whole roasted cauliflower ($32): This was very nice! The flavors worked well. I liked the sweet pomegranate seeds, they added a juicy burst of flavor. The seasoning was also good. I think the price was a little high to be honest, but it is what it is. Chocolate rye cookie a la mode ($12): Such a great way to wrap up a lovely meal! The cookie was oozy and the ice cream melted and was so good. The one negative was that I added a note to my reservation that we were celebrating a birthday and they didn't acknowledge this. That was disappointing but not enough so to dock a star. I recommend you visit abcV, regardless of if you're a vegetarian or a meat eater. You won't be disappointed. read more
