The service was good but we got a Mediterranean melt (good), a spicy Thai chicken wrap (not spicy in the least, had no flavor and the chicken was dry), and "homemade seasoned fries" (we were told it would take 10-15 minutes, which it did so it arrived about 10 minutes after the rest of our food, which is totally fine if you're making fresh fries; however, when the fries came out they were cold and had no seasoning, not even salt -- they were similar in shape to McDonald's fries but way worse). The place itself is kind of cute but the food is what really made me give this place a 2/5. read more

what do you MEAN the yogurt parfait bowl is $8 for something that you could get at the airport for more yogurt? The granola was soggy and ruined the experience of the parfait. The fruit was fresh, so I'm not completely upset at it. I was also confused by the rip-off of Jamba Juice names, unsure if intentional or they happened to come up with several similar sounding names. The Razzmatazz was mostly unremarkable and had a lot of random seeds interfering while drinking it. The inside of the cafe is cute with bright pastel colors, but the beauty of the place ends there. read more

I work close by and this is my go-to breakfast spot. Their service is very quick, the inside is always kind of remarkably clean, and the interior gives great study vibes. If I were in school, this would be my go-to eat & study spot. As a vegetarian too, they have LOTS of meat-free (and I think, Vegan) options to choose from, just right off the menu. I've also heard that most, if not all, of their sauces are made in-house which I love. read more

First time here came on a Saturday afternoon wasn't too busy. I order the kale Caesar salad with added avocado. I thought it was pretty average. The ingredients were fresh but the chicken was very dry so it was a good thing I got the pink lemonade/ginger drink. The salad didn't really wow me so I didn't think it was worth the price. The drink was homemade with real ingredients which I enjoyed. I liked the vibe on the inside. I am curious about some of the other menu items and I like the concept so I think I would come back and give it another chance. read more

B-Natural is one of my default ordering spots. The variety of healthy and sustainable foods have never let me down. I've become a creature of habit when ordering due to my deep rooted love of the Wild Alaskan Salmon Bowl....total swoon Thank God for friend dates! We sat there enjoying our time and their space for multiple bourse. The peaceful energy absolutely kept us there longer than we anticipated. Everyone ordered something different and the sampling did not let me down. Now, I have ordered other things before I became a loyalist and they were all realllyyyy good...I just love that freakin salmon bowl lol. When getting a salad I often get the goat cheese and apple salad since I'm a fan of fruit on salad. They have a great selection of smoothies that are so fresh. When ordering you have the option to build your own bowl, salad, smoothies, etc. and it's echoed in their store set-up. This was my first time being in the physical space (and it certainly won't be my last). What a warm, calm, and inviting space to be found in the middle of downtown New Haven. It is located across the street from the Shubert, so there is easy garage parking and green parking. I love this place. The people are equally kind and helpful. Don't think twice, this is a must stop for a great quick serve meal. read more

Came here for breakfast. Cute open space, limited seating but a lot of natural light from outdoors. The staff here were super friendly and accommodating. Mostly occupied by students studying so it's slightly quiet. Overall wonderful experience from a Chicagoan. read more

B-Natural Kitchen - Ordered a avocado chicken wrap! (No avocado, they were out), paired with a healthy sunrise drink) - New American Near Me - New Haven, Connecticut

I appreciate that the establishment uses mostly organic and grass-fed ingredients, which is why we chose to dine there. They advertise air-fried fries as a healthier option; however, the fries had an unpleasant plastic-like odor. The service was exceptionally slow, taking 23 minutes to deliver two burgers and a burrito. It seemed as though our order was forgotten. The burgers were dry and overcooked, with buns that were stale, hard, and disproportionately large for the patties. The burrito, despite the long wait, arrived cold and bland. Given the location in a college town, the quality of the food met low expectations. I had higher hopes for this restaurant but ultimately left feeling dissatisfied and disappointed. My hopes that this review is taken seriously by the management and proper steps are taken to make their business more successful in the future, as I would love nothing more than for these type of restaurants to thrive read more

This place is amazing! I was in town (New Haven, CT) and was in the mood to try on a new juice shop in the area that I've never been to before. I go to Google and randomly selected Bnatural Kitchen on college street. Now I've been to College Music Hall, Elm City Social and Insomnia Cookies which are all on the same street but I was always there at night time so I ALWAYS walked by this building. I was surprised to discover that this restaurant was here for a couple years. So I walk in and see people eating full meals here and my appetite suddenly had a change of heart and I decided to order some food with my smoothie. I ordered the mac & steak bowl which comes with brown rice, greens and a bnatural sauce. It was amazing but I'm interested to see how it would taste without the sauce so next time I'll exclude the sauce in my order. I also didn't forget my smoothie as I ordered the Green Protein which contains pineapple, kale, spinach, banana and almond milk. I can't wait to come back and I highly recommend visiting this place to see for yourselves. I won't steer you wrong! read more

This place had the best healthy food in all of New Haven. The wraps were delicious. And the drinks, doubly so. While the ambience feels a little bit cheap, and that the chairs are not very comfortable, it really doesn't matter. Because when you sit down and have a bite of the food, your transported out of this pizza-obsessed city, straight to an LA hipster health-conscious restaurant. read more

The food was very tasteful, I did a build my own bowl and my mouth was watering just from the looks of it. The taste of the fresh ingredients was amazing and the service was very kind, friendly and attentive. read more

great quality food service and menu. Would definitely recommend to anyone who is interested in health and wellness.

In town for the weekend for my sons baseball tournament and searched for 'vegan near me'. B-Natural Kitchen is in downtown New Haven on a block with other restaurants and has outdoor seating although parking is metered Monday-Saturday and the area can be a bit busy. The food selection was wonderful including warm bowls, salads, smoothies, coffee and bakery items. The service was friendly and helpful considering it was my first time there, and the ambiance felt very cafe-ish :). Exactly what I was looking for. IHighly recommend. read more

Got lunch from BNatural and It was delicious! They have a ton of healthy options to choose from including smoothies, fruit and yogurt bowls, breakfast options and acai bowls! Located in New Haven on College st. The restaurant is big and beautiful inside. A nice place to sit, relax and eat. I ordered the Wild Alaskan Salmon bowl which was so hearty and delicious; warm rice, quinoa, roasted veggies, sweet potatoes, savory salmon!! I will definitely order from here again! read more

I generally like the food here but tonight I made the mistake of ordering something new on the menu: a burger and air-fryer french fries. The burger bun was burned, slathered too thickly with some sort of sauce that was a surprise (and another bowl of same with the fries) and the patty was so over-done as to be almost inedible-rubbery and tasteless. I think I should have taken the hint when the person preparing it told me she was a vegetarian. Stick with the regular menu of bowls, they are quite good. read more

Another Black owned establishment that I welcome to New Haven. We stopped by for lunch during summer Saturdays and got the $20 meal deal. Although they messed up on my order (I made my own), they were so apologetic and made up for it. Sitting outside and eating was super quaint too and allowed for ample people watching. Please come support them during these times. The food is worth it!! read more

This was my first time visiting B-Natural kitchen. They are adjacent to Elm City Social, I can't believe I never stopped in. B-Natural keeps it fresh and healthy by sourcing in-season ingredients locally. You are able to build your own bowl or you can pick one from the menu. They also offer salads, wraps, and breakfast too. The staff was very friendly and helpful. My friend and I went during dinner time, it was quiet with only few patrons dining. My friend went with the build your own bowl which included sautéed kale, quinoa and brown rice mix, salmon, sweet potatoes, cucumber, mushrooms, onions, and added a vinaigrette dressing. It was delicious, savory with a little sweetness from the sweet potatoes. I went with the Wild Alaskan Bowl. The bowl included sautéed kale with quinoa and brown rice, parmesan, roasted sweet potatoes, roasted maple brussel sprouts, cabbage & carrots, mushrooms, grilled salmon, sesame seeds, bnatural sauce and a splash of lime cilantro dressing. My bowl was very good too. Also, mostly savory with a little sweetness. If you are looking for a fast casual, but healthy option check it out. The interior is nicely decorated; I would characterize it as modern boho-chic. There is plenty of seating available. read more

I had the Chickadoo Bowl, which features doro wat flavored chicken in cubes of white meat. Doro Wat is an Ethiopian spicy chicken stew. One of the owners is from Ethiopia, I believe, so I figured I'd try this offering with an Ethiopian influence. It was very delicious. It was spicy and flavorful. If you've never had doro wat I would describe it as similar in taste to something you might eat at an Indian restaurant, but better because it's a little different. It also came with some cooked cabbage with turmeric flavor and roasted beets over some quinoa, brown rice and kale. There was also half a hard boiled egg, which I think is a typical feature of doro wat stew. All of it was very good. It was a hearty portion, but not too big so I did not over eat, for a very reasonable price. The interior is very clean and nice like a trendy coffee shop. You order at the counter and they bring the food to you. I noticed they also have coffee and tea as well as some wine and local beer offerings, so it is a good place to meet for coffee during the day or a glass of wine in the evening. I will have to start going here more often. read more

The food is very ok and extremely overpriced. Everything tastes very healthy. Even the smoothie wasn't that good. read more

Amazing ambiance and extremely friendly staff! Absolutely incredible service, truly a well run family business. As for the food, delicious, fresh, and tasty. I was impressed by the pristine cleanliness of the dining area as well as the open kitchen format. This is a MUST VISIT restaurant and truly pleased with my experience!! read more

We were delighted with this restaurant! Not a lot of places near our hotel open for breakfast on New Years Eve so we took a chance on a healthy spot. I got the garden bowl with eggs, mushrooms, kale, and fresh tomato salsa -- among other yummies including their amazing fir-fir & B-Natural sauce which slapped me in the face with the realization that this is Ethiopian cuisine. My guy had the frittata, which wasn't what I would call a frittata, but was a delicious combo of scrambled eggs, spinach, mushroom, sweet potato, sautéed onions - and again with the fir-fir! The interior is bright and peaceful - it was quiet here this morning so I implore you to keep these people going - you owe it to yourself to have something far better than pancakes and bacon for breakfast! read more

This local eatery has a good variety of salads, wraps, build-your-own savory bowls, healthy bowls, and smoothies at reasonable prices! The place is clean and aesthetically pleasing and comfortable ambience for studying and hanging out with friends. All the workers are friendly and genuinely happy to serve the customers. Overlooked by students because the eatery doesn't seem to give any discounts on their food - something I think the management should consider doing to attract students! read more

I am an avid salad lover and I am obsessed with B Natural kitchen!!! This is the only high quality salad place in New Haven.

The Alaskan salmon bowl was phenomenal! Great variety of veggies and the fish was perfectly cooked. If I lived in New Haven i would eat at this place all the time! read more

Lovely, airy space with indoor and outdoor seating. We got breakfast burritos, and I got kale instead of rice in mine and added a tasty hot sauce. Very fresh ingredients, interesting menu. Looking forward to coming back to try açaí bowl and to make a custom bowl. Lots of veggie options, steak, chicken, and wild salmon. Yum! Kombucha on tap too! read more

OMG. This place rocks. Brussels sprouts, green beans, turmeric cabbage, beets and carrots, sweet potatoes, roasted portabellas, stir-fried broccoli etc, all over a healthy base of fir-fur, or quinoa & natural grain rice, or fresh kale. Add chicken or salmon or tofu or Ethiopian doro wat (spicy chicken) on top! Enjoyed a great fresh Kombucha! read more

Well, we'll never order from this sad excuse for an eatery. Ordered food for delivery. It was all fine with the exception of the chicken covering my wife's salad. She's a vegetarian, so in the garbage it goes. When I called to let them know they had made a mistake, I was told that I was wrong and Angel had made the salads just as ordered. When I asked to get the owners name since Angel was the manager, I was told he would t give me any information. Save your money and spend it some place that appreciates it. read more

Ordered the Thai wrap and the vegan bowl - wrap was basically plain chicken and rice. The bowl was cold, soggy, and flavorless. I wanted to give this place a shot, but for what we paid, it was disappointing. read more

This review is not about food but about the absolute rudeness of the individual I spoke with over the phone. I ordered a chai latte with oatmilk and what I received in my uber eats order was a regular latte with oat milk. I've been drinking chai since I was a child and is part of my culture. When I called to talk about this, the person I spoke with kept insisting that the issue I'm having is that I dont like the chai that he made. He spoke in an absolutely condescending tone, explaining to me that there are different types of chai and that he has a business to run. Even when I tried to say that perhaps my drink was switched with someone else's or the driver picked the wrong drink (to absolve him of responsibility even if he did make a mistake), he kept insisting that I did not know what chai was and he made the right drink. Please also note that I've ordered a chai latte 3x from this place and I've always received a chai latte although once a mistake was made with the milk (I ordered oatmilk and they used organic dairy). I don't care who you are but you are an incredibly rude individual and I want the world to know what to expect if a mistake is made with an order. What a shame because I actually like the food here. read more

It's actually pretty cheap and I'm dangerously obsessed with the vegan bowl- as a true vegan I can say it's safe and gluten free (and there are other similar options). read more

Ordered a spicy Thai chicken and grain bowl and it was tasty and had a lovely presentation. Service was quick and pleasant.

There are not enough stars for this meal. I am blown away! This is absolutely the most delicious! I got the Wild Alaskan Salmon bowl and it was sooooo good! Would eat here every day if I could! 10/10! read more

Stopped by on a Tuesday morning. No other customers should have been my first clue. Took a few minutes for an employee to acknowledge me. Paper menu at the register was nasty and covered in food splatters. Should have just walked out. Ordered the "Smokey Bagel" aka bagel and lox. Disappointing. Was on a plain bagel, not everything as is traditional. I think the person making it has never seen one before. It was pretty flat, VERY little salmon, like 2 little shreds. Just wasn't a good experience. read more

Great healthy bowls. Many options, including gluten free. Delicious. A go-to for takeout.
