    - A few customers during the Monday afternoon lunch period; small establishment with assembly-line style food prep, and the space is tight, with only a couple of small tables available for dine-in - Service was very speedy - Offers a selection of Mexican entrées with plenty of ingredients to choose from when building a custom bowl - Food was good but not great: I went with a custom al pastor burrito bowl--the yellow rice had some dry, hardened grains; both types of beans were very watery, which made the whole dish soggy; the other toppings didn't have much flavor, though the al pastor itself was nicely seasoned - Portion size is fair for the price, but overall the dish lacked flavor - Complimentary mini carrot muffin came with the meal, which was surprisingly moist and tasty

    Stumbled into this spot and glad I did. The girl at the counter is so attentive and a sweetheart, great aura. Requested to have a little rice into my taco salad and it was no problem. Small little place but they are pretty busy with takeout and delivery orders, I can see why! Thanks guys!

    Falafel Hummus wrap

    Dropped by to grab takeout for dinner; we got the Mexican chipotle plate and falafel hummus wrap; food was ready in less than 10 minutes after ordering; staff were friendly. Excellent portions for the price, food was delicious.

    I'd have to go back n try some of their real menu but based on today's cinco de Mayo celebration menu I'd say they were probably pretty solid at a decent price; Grubhub had a place called "cinco de Mayo and when I rolled up to pick up, I looked up... and down and around until I realized Natureworks was one in the same serving up tacos, enchiladas, and quesadillas. I splurged, Grubhub issued a 40% off coupon for the menu so I couldn't resist- $21 for four tacos and enchiladas- all were pretty decent and a nice size.

    Turkey Burger Pizza Style Sandwich
    Julie Ying X.

    I came here for lunch since I work nearby. I'm always looking for a healthy place for lunch. My friend recommended this place for salads and smoothies. I ordered the turkey burger pizza style since it sounded interesting? I was tired of eating salads (I eat a salad at least once a week). The turkey burger was larger than I expected. The turkey was not dry and pretty juicy. However, the pizza marinara sauce was a bit bland. There was a lot of cheese though. I did like that it was in a pita bread instead of a hamburger bun since it's healthier. The staff were friendly and fast. I would come back and try their smoothies. I saw a lot of people ordering juices and smoothies.

    Not the best pic but two sides of grilled chicken, my fav!

    This is long overdue but Natureworks is awesome and feeds me multiple times per month. When you're trying to eat healthy without breaking the bank and want a variety to choose from, this is your place. I honestly have never had a bad dish from here. Plus, their food is always hot and is ready quickly when I pick up my orders and delivered quickly when I opt for delivery. My go-to is simply getting a side (or 2) of grilled chicken to bring home and eat with my own veggies and sweet potato. Their grilled chicken is incredible and is not loaded with oil and salt (or at least it doesn't taste like it is). Other favorites include the: #64 Lean and Ripped Plate #68 The Ultimate Plate (w/ pasta) #26 Turkey Burger Pizza Style #72 Chicken Coop (w/ pasta + w/ out soy sauce) #41 Grilled Chicken Breast Over Steamed Spinach Other things I have tried and loved are the #67 Tony's Plate (the sauce is actually delicious and not too salty) and the #80 English Breakfast. Also, all plates come with a free whole wheat pita. These are delicious but they do go stale quickly so you should it eat on day one. Overall I would definitely recommend Natureworks for whatever you're craving!

    side of baked falafel ($3.05)
    Syd R.

    Good lunch spot for hearty, healthy meals. I've gotten a wrap and bowl here before, this time I just got a side of falafel ($3). Falafel is REALLY good and not dry at all. good portion too. Loved that its baked, rather than fried. Love the combinations they come up with for their bowls, burritos, and wraps! They also serve breakfast all day.. win! They are also on ritual and your first order is 50% off up to $5 It's a small little place, I think there were two tables to sit at? Mostly seems like a to-go place. The people working there were very friendly also.

    Not so much a restaurant but really a great little hole in the wall place that dishes out healthy food options at affordable prices. A lot of the time healthy eating equates to bland eating, but not here. I can see myself hitting this place up more and more as I get my training in gear. The food was actually quite flavorful. Really big menu of food options from sandwiches in whole wheat pitas, burritos, salads, pizza, all-day breakfast, high energy protein plates, energy and protein shakes, soups, and snacks. This place has it all. There are monthly breakfast and lunch specials. For month of June there are discounts on breakfast and free sides with lunch sandwiches. I ordered the Ultimate Plate which consists of grilled chicken breast, brown rice, mixed steamed veggies, hummus, and a pita on the side. It is $10 but you get a lot of food here! Plus, it tasted pretty good and the chicken was not dry at all. Veggies were fresh and hummus was decent. Washed it down with a raspberry crystal light drink which is a pretty large cup for $1.99 - yum! So glad this place is only a few blocks from my office. Guys who work there were nice and the food was prepared quickly. Dining area is small and consists of a few high tables and chairs, and some counter space along the wall. Mainly I saw a lot of take out and delivery going on. Two women next to me were eating the pita sandwiches and they looked good. As one who likes to eat healthy, or try to, I will definitely go back for more healthy meals here.

    Lean and Ripped plate
    Jackie S.

    Okay, so my original review of this place (from a few months back) read: I am ashamed to say that I've lived across the street from Natureworks for almost a year now and being the health freak that I am, never walked in...until today. After having beasted it out at the gym while also feeling a little under the weather, I was in desperate need of immediate fuel, but was too lazy to cook like I usually do. Then came my epiphany AHA moment...NATUREWORKS! Lets try it! Pulling up my handy dandy Seamless app, I went order crazy. I got the vegetarian chili, an order of hummus, and the "Lean and Ripped" high energy protein plate. All that for a measly $13! Not to shabby for a New York City dinner! Now for the food breakdown: Lean and Ripped plate- [Foodies, you can stop reading now. Health nuts, proceed.] This is your standard "clean eating" dish. If you're expecting over-the-top flavors and your tastebuds dancing and singing, it's not going to happen. What you get is white meat chicken pieces over a bed of steamed veggies (broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, and zucchini). It's plain tasting, but very filling. I'd order it again. Vegetarian Chili- If you've read any of my previous reviews, I'm extremely hesitant with vegetarian food items. I am a carnivore through and through but for some reason this menu item spoke to me. I ordered a size small and it was very filling and not overly salty like many soups are. It's more of a bean soup with that southern smokey taste to it, pretty solid. Hummus- The star of the meal. Seriously. Some of the BEST HUMMUS I've ever had. I was shocked. It tasted like they put insane amounts of tahini in it. Personally, I can eat tahini by the bucket, so having that much flavor of it in my hummus made its way straight from my tastebuds, to my heart, then finally to my stomach. YES YES YES. In addition to all this, they put THREE PITA BREADS in my bag. THREE. Dear lord, if you're trying to cut carbs...BEWARE they give it away like Oprah gives out humpback whales (Dane Cook joke, y'all). If you're looking for a good, inexpensive, filling, and HEALTHY meal, this is your place. Their menu is massive and caters to all dietary needs for all meals: breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks! It's such a hole-in-the-wall that it can be missed in a second but it's almost as if its a 31st Street secret. Shh! NOW FOR THE UPDATE: I have upped Natureworks Restaurant's stars from four to five because I have ingested it so many times it is now a piece of my soul. Though I haven't reordered the Lean and Ripped plate, my go-to is OPEN SESAME! It is by far one of the more delicious healthy weeknight dinners I treat myself to every week or so. It's so meaty, so tahini-y (copyrighting my use of that word...one day), and good for you. And even though a large size is massive, I devour the entire thing every single time, with a side of steamed spinach because apparently I'm trying to win the title of Iron Woman. But seriously though...the service is good, Seamless orders are speedy, and this place is also on HealthyOut for those of you who hoard smartphone apps.

    $6.60 All alkaline shake yum!
    Lisa H.

    I always swing by and grab a green shake! Very reasonably priced and tastes good too. Got the All alkaline shake for $6.60 and it was so filling. Definitely worth it. I've heard food is good here too but I only got a vegetable chicken rice dish (I forgot the name) but it was healthy in that there were no sauce so it tasted bland.

    Store front to NaturesWorks. Small might miss it in the evening time.

    Standard Mexican slot bowl spot. Nothing crazy. Service was very pleasant though. That made me give a 3 star instead of a 2 star.

The front of house "girls" said a table would be available 1-2 hours but a seat at the upstairs bar was immediately available...tired and hungry we agreed. The kicker was: the upstairs tables were *completely unoccupied* and remained so for the hour or so it took to serve us a couple of drinks and eat a meal while seated at the bar. While the food and bar service was great, we expressed out disappointment of not being allowed to sit at a table in the *entirely vacant* upper level (BTW, it was wonderfully quiet up there, compared to downstairs). Excuses ranged from "short staffed" (despite three young women at front of house being deep in conversation with themselves) to "no server upstairs" , both clearly BS as someone clearly served us, but they were apparently "runners" not "servers". WTF? Seriously?! Heaven forbid two people sit at a table in an otherwise totally empty upper level. OK, I'm still tired and cranky, but suggest whoever owns this gem on 45th St give their management some Faulty Towers management training: "Manuel, let me explain something to you...." Food: excellent. Prices. Very reasonable. Bar staff: wonderful: Management/front of house: rather clueless
