Outside
Sabrina M.

I love this quick bite very fulfilling. The burger is probably one of the best vegan burgers I've ever had. The waffle fries were delicious and crunchy. This is located outside, but they do have some seats where you can sit.

Straight off the plane and this was the first place I wanted to try in NY. Vegan burger, fries, and a milkshake... oh yea. That burger was delicious, I should've gotten a double, seriously (or another burger)! I'm a fry kinda girl and these were cooked to perfection and they were waffle fries! Also got a chocolate milkshake made with oat milk, so so good! This walk up was very effective with service and had a few seating to enjoy your food. Cute and fast with getting the order out. Can't wait to go back!

We were staying at a nearby hotel- and stumbled upon this spot in the wee hours of the morning. This location had been vacant for a few years, so we were surprised to see a bright yellow building with people sitting at tables. We ordered burgers and fries. Everything was piping hot when we got back to our room. These were hands down- THE BEST impossible burgers that we have ever eaten. The waffle fries were perfect. Next time we'll splurge on shakes. If you're looking for a late night vegetarian option- highly recommend checking them out. Service was fast and friendly.

Chili and waffle fries
Kenn M.

Amazing vegan place. A "smash burger " with crispy edges and fantastic taste. Chili fries are good too. And a real bargain!

Jr burger was still a great size!
Elizabeth B.

Popped in here for a quick bite. Their soft serve machine was down (it's giving McDonald's lol) so I just ordered a jr burger and fries. Both came out piping hot and tasted fresh! Fries were perfectly seasoned, and the burger was perfect. The guys working had such a good vibe that was appreciated!

Unexpected find! Was craving a burger but cutting back on beef recently. Stumbled upon this place online and figured I'd give it a try, not expecting much. Honestly, so many plant-based burger joints are either mediocre or just all taste the same. This was a really solid burger. I got their standard (OG Betr) with everything (lettuce, tomatoes, grilled onions, vegan cheese). Honestly, if you weren't paying attention you could be fooled into thinking this was just a decent regular burger from a fast food joint. Two smashed patties, great flavor. I was a little concerned about the cheese, but it really worked. If you're a veggie or vegan, or if you just are limiting meat--or just curious--it's worth a visit. No great seating, though some outdoor countertops, so maybe avoid if the weather is crappy.

Lil' BETR BRGR Loaded Chili Fries Cookies N Cream
Jeffrey G.

This was my first time trying Jerrell's. This is a solid vegan burger. I've had a couple vegan burgers and this one is just right. The flavor is there and the textures are on point. The loaded chili fries were pretty good. The flavor of the chili was moderate but it compliments the fries and has a subtle sweet taste to it. The cookies and cream milkshake was good. It was smooth and balanced. For a spot with limited seating and spacing the service is pretty good. They accommodate for the space really well.

Stand at Lincoln Center
Marie Y.

Looking for a quick dinner option as I waited for the Summer in the City event to start, I decided to try a Lil' Betr burger at a stand located at Lincoln Center. The price was reasonable, and if I hadn't known that the burger was Impossible meat, I would have not been able to tell the difference. The burger was delicious and juicy. I also appreciated the ingenious burger wrapping -- I was able to enjoy my burger cleanly without having to touch it with my likely dirty hands. Based on this positive experience, I plan to stop by the actual location to try another burger, as well as their sides and dessert, the next time I am in Soho!

I was excited to try Jerrell's vegan burgers following an after party that had sliders and fries but no vegan option for myself. The shop is small with a few outdoor tables to dine. Definitely a grab-and-go kind of vibe. Let's talk about the burger itself. It's an impossible burger with vegan cheese you can get at the grocery store, but the way they prepare it together gave me that charred taste that I enjoyed growing up. For $14, it's a pricy burger but it did taste good and hit the junk food cravings. The Chili Cheese Waffle Fries however came in the smallest container ever. For nearly $10, I was expecting at least double the amount of fries for a rather small amount of vegan cheese and chili on top. We also tried a Cookies N' Cream Oat Milkshake, and that was a good treat. Overall, the meal was good but a bit pricy for the amount of food that we ended up getting. I'd come back for the burger if I was really wanting one but would skip the loaded fries.

Delicious, vegan, walk-up to order burger spot. Waffle fries, Cookies and Cream Milkshakes, what more do you need?

Ayana A.

I tried out the oat milk soft serve, and it was pretty decent! You can get free toppings including sprinkles or cookie crumbles. I got both. Refreshing little treat on a nice day. They do have some seating inside or outside. It is smaller tables. They also have standing tables on the side for larger crowds.

Double burger and waffle fries
Jim M.

This has to be the best vegan burger that I've ever had! I had the double which tasted amazing, very hot and freshly made. When I was a little kid, I always wanted a Big Mac, like my dad got. But he said I was too little to finish one. The first time that he said OK and let me get one, it was the best thing ever, though I was stuffed. This burger actually brought back that memory, except it's not beef this time.

Cookies and cream shake food
Karina B.

Order a single fries and cookie and cream shake food was good. The special sauce was a nice flavor not sure what it's made of.

The bartender Carlos makes you feel welcome as soon as you step in and gives you a thorough and honest walk through of the menu - Ambiance good for a semi casual meal - Not very crowded on a weekday lunch MENU - Global inspired shareable small plates and larger entrees - All vegetarian/vegan - Slightly pricey but portions are generous FOOD - Zaatar cauliflower (8/10): grilled cauliflower steak on a bed of tomato chickpea stew topped with a generous dollop of kale pesto and tahini. This dish sounded simple yet each component added a significant flavor and textural element. The cauliflower is tender enough to break with a fork with a crispy exterior from the grilled crust. The chickpea tomato stew is comforting and slightly spicy yet stays light and fresh. The kale pesto is earthy and bright and pairs well with the generous pour of tahini. The portion is good for one person as a lighter entree or can be shared as part of a larger spread. - Mexican brownie sundae (9/10): brownie topped with vanilla ice cream, chocolate fudge, balsamic cherry reduction, and bananas. I was not planning to order dessert but I am so glad that I did. This dessert was the perfect blend of sweet, bitter, and acidic. The brownie is soft and fudgy and melts in your mouth as you take a bite. The ice cream is rich and lightly stuffed with vanilla flecks. The cherries add a strong tartness which contrasts the rich chocolate and sweet vanilla. Highly recommend getting a dessert at the end of your meal. WOULD I GO BACK? As much as I would want to, this place is sadly closing at the end of September 2026

I also had the chocolate peanut butter bliss for dessert. It was one of the best desserts I've had. It's a double layer ganache and peanut butter mousse, topped with caramel sauce and strawberries served with cranberry sauce candied peanuts Candle still continues to stand the test of time. The original Candle 79 closed almost over a decade ago. A few years ago I discovered that Candle Cafe had still kept its doors open I've visited a few times for brunch and finally came back for lunch; I haven't made it for dinner yet and would gladly return.

If you didn't know, this is a Mexican restaurant with a full vegan menu. We shared a plate of plantain that came on a delicious later of black bean puree. We also got chips and mango salsa ... That's really a great salsa! For the main course, I decided to get the pescado and al pastor chicken tacos. I have never had the al pastor profile with 'chicken' before, so that was interesting. I enjoyed both tacos, and I think the al pastor was my favorite. I got the churros for the dessert, and the presentation was so cool, but I have to admit I did not love them. They tasted way too fried, if that makes sense. My sister got the chocolate chili tart ... It had stunning presentation, and ... It really was delicious! That would be my first choice next time. This place does brunch and has great cocktails as well. They are more on the expensive side and I would reserve them for special occasions, but I overall enjoyed everything. Highly recommend!

The service was also very good, and the staff was friendly and attentive. The only downside is the atmosphere. The crowd is an odd mix of runners, grungy-looking people, and some rather rough-around-the-edges characters, which gives the place a slightly uncomfortable and uninviting vibe. The restaurant itself is extremely small, and the outdoor seating extends directly onto the street, making you feel as though you're sitting in the middle of traffic. Unfortunately, it also feels a bit dirty and takes away from what could otherwise be a lovely brunch experience. Overall, the food and service are excellent, but the atmosphere and seating leave a lot to be desired. I would definitely return for the food, but only if I could get a table inside!
