In search of vegan dishes I searched Yelp in the Hawthorne NY area and it took me to Sleepy Hollow NY where I scored big time . Going inside Grass Roots Kitchen was a breath of fresh air. The aesthetics put me in the mind of earth day and such beautiful paintings on the wall and flowers and greenery throughout. Grass Roots Kitchen offers have high tops dining as well as, regular dining, and outside dining. The dining area is pretty large, length wise and beautifully attractive. I ordered the egg and cheese biscuit with the help of the cashier, I didn't get her name and it's on the receipt but I threw it out. Even though this was not a vegan dish, who could pass on a collosal cheese biscuit. The egg was a nice accompaniment to this cheese biscuit also. The lady that gave me the biscuits said, wow! That smells nice. I thought she was giving me a compliment on the order until I sniffed the bag. Normally I don't do well with my sense of smell but, boy oh boy! That was a gooooooood smelling biscuit. And the taste, it tastes so good, it makes you want to slap yo momma. (Don't do it, it just makes you want to slap her.) Needless to say, I really enjoyed this cheese biscuit. In hindsight I guess I could have grabbed a hot drink, maybe next time, and there will be a next time because I told the lady that this was my first time and at the restuarant and I'm new in the area. She said she's looking forward to seeing me again. I'm looking forward to more eats and treats or treats and eats. Whatever it is, just ... Inspire more, Yelp more! read more

This restaurant was bustling on a Saturday afternoon. They have about seven or eight tables indoors and a couple tables outside. There were also several picnic benches around the side of the building, but I wasn't clear if they belonged to the restaurant. You order at the register and they call out your name when your food is ready. They have a ton of vegan/vegetarian options, as well as a great breakfast/brunch menu. I ordered the egg and cheese biscuit. The cheddar jalapeño biscuit was delicious. It was buttery and dense. The flavors were mild, but the sandwich was the perfect portion size. I also got a side of the vegan bacon. It was rubbery and tough to chew. Would not recommend. My husband enjoyed the breakfast burrito. We also shared the buffalo cauliflower. The cauliflower pieces were well coated in buffalo sauce and very flavorful. I also got the Don't Kale Me juice. It was tangy, citrusy, and refreshing. The Deep Roots smoothie was also quite tasty. They have free self-serve water and the employees were quick to wipe down tables so they were clean for the next party. Looking forward to coming again! read more

This is my new favorite place! There were more vegan options than not at a very affordable place! I was overwhelmed with choices because they were all so delicious (and vegan!). I decided to try the Korean BBQ wrap, and it was absolutely flavorful and tasty. The ambiance of the place was cozy and inviting, with nicely set tables. The staff was incredibly kind and welcoming, making my dining experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this place! read more

WOW! To think we almost turned around to leave. From the pics on Yelp we thought it was more upscale but it's very casual! You place your order then find a table and they bring it to you! After reviewing the menu we decided to stay and give it a go! SO GLAD WE DID! I had the butternut squash soup and Oh My was it delicious! A very generous serving creamy thick and slightly sweet topped with a swirl of cream and toasted pumpkin seeds! You could taste the ginger but it was not offensive! I paired it with the Fried Oyster Po Boy - home run on taste again! Stacked high with lightly battered very well seasoned oyster mushrooms on a hearty bun topped with lettuce - house made pickles- lettuce- and spicy aioli - THIS SANDWICH WAS THE BOMB! My hubby enjoyed his Salmon Burger topped with a basil aioli along with other trimmings! I had a nice Strawberry Hibiscus Tea/Lemonade it was perfect by my taste as no added sugar which I prefer! We finished it off by sharing a butternut apple bread pudding with caramel sauce! Boy was it good. Again not sickly sweet just right - rich caramel and huge chunks of apple. The staff is very friendly even checking to ensure nothing had nuts due to my allergies and the place is organic feeling and they locally source. It's small with only 7-8 tables but it was not crowded at the time we arrived. Seems like they do a good book of carry out orders! read more

They offer great lunch specials during the week.my son and I tried the cheeseburger with a side of winter soup. Both were fantastic. They have such a great variety of healthy farm to table options that I will have to return to try. Conviently located place near the train station and next to another fast food establishment if you want a healthier option as a meal. read more

This is a fast casual place for either breakfast or lunch. There is a parking lot. The portions are the same as Shake Shack and Bareburger. Prices are in the area of Chipotle, Shake Shack and Bareburger. Service is the same as any fast casual/fast food place. I tried the lentil burger, falafel burger, buckwheat pancakes, salted caramel brownie, fries, and tea. The tea is a rip off. It is $3 for a tiny cup. It is even smaller than Starbucks' small. The brownie is a standard brownie. The burgers are standard burgers. The buckwheat pancakes were nice. Their selling point is a vegan and a flexitarian can both eat here. read more

An absolutely unreal meal. Everything is fresh and tastes like real, thoughtful food. The Korean bbq wrap was unreal. My fav was definitely the buffalo cauliflower bowl! All of the elements were individually great. Get the root vegetable tots too! read more

Fantastic venue. I wish there was something like this in every city. Delicious offerings with excellent service. Grass Roots Kitchen in Tarrytown is a casual eatery associated with the Sweet Grass Grill and Tomatillo. You can go order at the front desk and then sit for your food. We had some amazing chocolate chia pudding, cookies, buckwheat pancakes (my favorite), and kombucha (terrible nutritional information suggesting that there are less carbs than sugar), and coconut chocolate bites. I highly recommend. Explore their website's menu. read more

Cute little cafe/restaurant located in Tarrytown, only a 5min walk from the Tarrytown metro north station. The vibe is warm, cozy & simple with a good amount of seating. The menu is very vegan-friendly! Not 100% vegan but tons of vegan options for breakfast & lunch. There are also vegan baked goods! I had the vegan tofu "egg", avocado and shiitake "bacon" breakfast sandwich- so good!! Super satisfying and exactly what I was craving. The tofu egg texture was so yummy and went so well with the avo and mushrooms. The bun they used was also really good- seemed like some sort of vegan brioche? I also had the ginger carrot soup which was tasty and perfect on a chilly fall day. Flavor was good and not too salty. For sweets- I tried the vegan banana bread which really hit the spot. I LOVE banana bread and always happy to see a vegan one. Great banana taste and sprinkled with walnuts. I also got the vegan gluten free pumpkin donut- this was baked not fried. I thought this was a bit dry and hard. The frosting was so good, but the donut part itself could be more moist. Service was friendly and fast. Overall I had a good experience. I was only in town for a day trip but would definitely come back if I lived closer, or if I make the trip there again. There were so many vegan items I wanted to try like the oyster mushroom po boy! Everything was delicious and the only thing I would not get again is the pumpkin donut (flavor is great, texture a bit hard). In summary- wonderful vegan-friendly spot with comforting delicious food! read more

Went for their weekday lunch special, a great deal if you are in the area for lunch, and I was especially surprised by their winter soup (root vegetable). So tasty! read more

Remembered this place was great so gave it another try while I was in the area. Was craving a cheese burger when I saw the menu. I also ordered a smoothie. The smoothie came out quickly, but the service for the food was very slow. Though my friend who ordered after me got his food quickly. I saw my cheese burger and assumed it was mine, waiting to be called out, but I saw the person at the counter keep looking at the tickets and food, and organizing it but not quite calling names. I should've just asked but didn't want to assume that it was mine. She did call out my name after 10 minutes. I was genuinely confused because she was standing there, looking at the tickets and saw my burger but didn't say my name earlier. I'd assume if orders are ready that you'd want to call them out shortly after they're done... read more

4.5, cute stop for breakfast or lunch with healthier and seasonal breakfast and lunch options This is a great spot for bikers because they have outdoor seating with plenty of room for bikes. A nice escape from the hustle of the Main Street area. While they have a decent number of vegan, vegetarian and gluten free options (salad, soup, breakfast), they also have grassfed beef burgers, chicken and fish. They also have smoothies and juices. I liked the veggie wrap, with the variety of filling. Not a cheap place but you also don't feel yucky after eating their foods. read more

This is some very hard-core vegan and regular food. They are very friendly and welcoming there. I've enjoyed my mushroom sandwich very much. It was delicious! Then I went another time and had their Philly cheese steak burrito and it was gross. The fake meat was too chewy and didn't have any flavor there. I I also had some of their banana bread, but it was just way too thick and not enough seasoning. I haven't tried everything there, but I will say the mushroom is the best. The overall restaurant is very comfortable and a great place to sit to eat. read more

Grass Roots Kitchen - Korean bbq wrap - New American Near Me - Tarrytown, New York

I've been here a few times and I always leave wanting to love this place so much more than I do. It has great potential and intention, but it's just ~okay~. I appreciate that they have so many gluten free and vegan options. Today I got the GF blueberry muffin, 1 fried egg and an iced coffee (that was mostly ice + oat milk). It set me back a whopping $14 and change! The muffin had a great texture but was lacking flavor. The egg was good. The iced coffee?... I ended up leaving it there then going to coffee labs in town. With some small recipe tweaks, this place could really soar. I'm rooting for them!! read more

We used to come here often on the weekend, always enjoyed the interesting take on lunch, but today is disappointing. First, there are no napkins in the takeout bag. I didn't see any near the pickup counter so just assumed there would be. Second, there is no beet ketchup in with the unappetizing root tater tots. Third, the only flavor in the banana kale peanut butter oat milk smoothie is the oat milk. Fourth, the root smash burger is dry and uninteresting. On the plus side, the salmon on a roll and can you dig it pressed juice are as expected. read more

If there was ever a place that would convince me to adopt a vegan lifestyle, it would 100% be this place. One of my friends chose this place for lunch as she is vegan. Walking in, I didn't know what to order, but after carefully examining the menu, I choose the vegan "Philly cheesesteak" burrito. (The burrito was made of Seitan instead of actual beef.) HOLY MOLY. The flavor was amazing. I never knew how delish vegan food could be and this place certainly introduced me to new foods and flavors in such a great way. The staff was also incredibly kind and eager to accommodate any special diets or allergies ... which is super hard to find these days in a restaurant. My only wish is that there had been an an option for bottled water. Maybe there was and I just completely missed it. All the drink options that I had never heard of was a tad much. Bottom line: whether you're vegan or not, let this place tickle your taste buds with amazing vegan food! Definitely worth the visit. read more

Delicious food. Great zucchini or banana breads and salmon sandwich. Healthy food and quite delicious. Long wait for food but it's very fresh and delicious at this popular place. They need more tables as they are often crowded when outside is not an option. read more

Excellent ambience and delicious food. My salmon bowl with cauliflower and rice was excellent and my husband's chicken and biscuit sandwich was also great. The root tater tots felt healthier than french fries and we enjoyed them. The mellow yellow smoothie my husband had was fresh and delicious. They serve coffee labs coffee, and my cup was tasty. The servers were very friendly and nice. read more

Everyone here is always so friendly. I love the buckwheat pancakes, and the smoothies are phenomenal. It's cute and clean inside too.

So. So. So Good! Stopped here for lunch for one week straight and worked my way through their menu. Not a vegan but am plant based and this spot doesn't make me miss meat at all! The philly "cheesesteak" is my favorite. Love it with a side of their root fries. It's a strange experience to feel like you're overindulging in fast food but it's all veggies! Even their "ketchup" is unique! Parking is plentiful and they have outdoor seating in the summer. I would take my food to go and be grateful with every bite that healthy delicious food is so accessible and affordable with the hudson river as a backdrop. read more

I just had the best experience here! First time and I ordered the grain free bread sunflower grilled cheese. I cannot get over how amazing this simple sandwich tasted. Each bite had me exclaiming in exclamations! I couldn't stop myself. What an absolute delight to eat something so tasty and so nourishing! I don't love close but will go out of my way to return soon. I would shout my love of this sandwich from all the rooftops in Westchester if i I could. :) Rarely do I leave an establishment and NEED to immediately write a reciew. It's also clean and bright and service was fast and friendly. I also ordered a chocolate muffin. Will update this review once it's consumed. read more

Grass Roots Kitchen - Fried chicken biscuit and roots Root Fries - New American Near Me - Tarrytown, New York

Yato is confused about this place. Is it good? Is it trash? Yato doesn't know. One day the egg and cheese is perfect. Next day Yato rather eat at the McDonald's next door. One day the bacon is cooked right. Next day Yato is chewing on a rock. Need new teeth after breakfast. What is this place? Some weird science experiment. Just how much hope will Yato hold here. Roll the dice. Yato isn't a gambler, so he stopped coming because the price is a little high for what might be a good breakfast or a train wreck. Yato is being kind here, gives it a 3, because although there are times Yato rather eat actual grass roots then the food here, it can sometimes go right. read more

Once every few months, I go to Tarrytown for work and I never know what to eat. I randomly stumbled upon this place on my way to work one day and will definitely be coming back. The restaurant is situated in a plaza so parking is readily available. The restaurant is spacious and has indoor and outdoor seating. I ordered an iced black tea and cilantro lime salmon bowl. The salmon bowl was delicious! Presentation was good, the portion size was big (I was super full afterwards), and there were two sauces. read more

What do you do if a vegan, a pescetarian, and a carnivore want to do lunch? Grass Roots Kitchen to the rescue. The vegan loved the pulled "pork" (jackfruit) sandwich and fries. The pescetarian loved the oyster mushroom po boy. The carnivore loved the cheeseburger with bacon. But the hit of the meal were the drinks....the mellow yellow mango smoothie was light and tasty; the signature deep roots was extraordinary...mango, blueberry, orange, and beet was tart and tangy. The vegan loved the cola and snuck back in for more after we left. Fun space with outdoor seating. Future trip will include the baked goods. read more

How do you ascribe a 1 to 5-star rating to an establishment based on a multilayered review? By having the overall rating based on an aggregate of the entire experience while capturing the details in the narrative. The three stars are my personal overall experience. However, within the narrative, there are portions that exceed the overall rating. The Staff (5 stars): They were not only accommodating with our questions, but they were also kind in their individual demeanors. They all wore a mask and handled their positions with a careful and relaxed attitude. The establishment (4 stars): The entire place was orderly and clean. The bathrooms were not disgusting but they could use a little attention Inside the establishment limited seating is available but, if that runs out, they do have seating outside. The Food (2 stars): This is where the review gets personally subjective. There are two things in a restaurant that simply I do not like: small portions and expensive ala cart food items. My family and I ordered two smoothies (very grainy and watery), two orders of fries (tasty), a chicken salad sandwich (zero flavor), a cheeseburger (very thin patty), a beet burger (very thin and mushy), and a chicken grain bowl (small and void of taste), all for a grand total of $75. The issue with this was that the price is extremely high for such small portions of mediocre food. We had to order fries because they did not come with the burgers or sandwiches (this is what I mean by expensive ala cart food items). Truly, the food was not bad, but it did have zero flavor and the cost was outrageous. If you are a vegan at heart, you will probably enjoy this place, and that's ok. However, if you are not and you are looking to try something new or different, save your money...you will leave frustrated and disappointed. read more

Came in for the first time while visiting sleepy hollow and we were looking for gluten free and vegan options but there wasn't much except grass roots. We actually used to go to a place called Grass Roots in Jacksonville FL a few years ago which was a natural market and juice bar tho. We were pleasantly surprised to find this establishment had so many organic options, many of which could be made gluten free or already were gf and/or vegan. We didn't have to stress which we usually do when we go out to lunch. We were so happy with our food! We had a cheese burger with gf roll which the roll was one of the best gf bread/rolls we ever had periodT! The chocolate chip gf vegan cookies were delicious too and right texture-- I'm super picky about a lot of gf foods and everything here was sooooo good! The service was excellent and smiley too, the lovely girls who took our order and served us were so patient and understanding of our allergen needs and that we hadn't been there before. The prices weren't astronomical either like so many organic and vegan spots tend to be these days. I expected to pay a lot more bc an hour north in Poughkeepsie this meal would've cost me well over $60 and I spent less than $40 here. 10/10 would return in a Heartbeat. And the artwork is so lovely throughout, the bathroom was very clean and there was plenty of seating and space which is harder to get in restaurants around here and I'm very much an introvert and empath so being around energy in tight spaces is anxiety inducing for me. Thank you! read more
