The original one I wanted was the lychee but they ran out of the ingredients at 5pm. Anyway I tried the Lilac cocktail was pretty good. We had an array of things ... spicy crab hand roll, steamed edamame dumplings, zucchini chips, tofu and avocado The star of the happy hour menu was the spicy tuna maki roll . My favorite thing . I didn't even taste watermelon lol . Vegan sushi roll for the win. My friend has the kebabs and I had the beef and broccoli which was good. Spent like $100 pp I would come back and have that sushi roll again and try other things

We wanted to chill at Bryant Park while each of us grabbed whatever we felt like eating, and La Botaniste--right across from the park--was the perfect grab-and-go option for me. The colorful Dutch ovens filled with fresh, vibrant dishes and amazing aromas made it so hard to choose. I'm still kicking myself for not taking pictures because everything looked so mouthwatering. I finally went with the Botanical Salad, and it was AMAZING. Fresh, flavorful, satisfying, and exactly what I was hoping for. Everything on the menu looked comforting and delicious while still being plant-based and health-conscious. Even though the line was busy, the staff was genuinely friendly. They took the time to answer questions, explain the dishes, and make recommendations without making us feel rushed.

I didn't realize I had already bookmarked P.S. Kitchen as a vegan spot to try in New York City, but…read moresince I was staying near Times Square, I stopped in for a quick meal after a long morning. I arrived at an off-hour, between 2:00 and 3:00 p.m., so it was fairly empty. The space was immaculate, with clean, crisp colors and plenty of open seating. I ordered the Buffalo maitake sandwich to go. It came with breaded maitake mushrooms, lettuce, tomato, red onion, and house blue cheese dressing on a pretzel bun. It was neatly wrapped in aluminum foil and traveled well back to my hotel. There was plenty of sauce to complement the Buffalo-style mushrooms, and while the breading had a nice texture, I would have preferred it a little crispier. Overall, it was a tasty and filling sandwich. I expected the pretzel bun to be larger, but the smaller size worked well. I enjoyed the meal and would definitely return to dine-in on a future trip to NYC!

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!

We both opted for the $19 Lunch Special (choose two items from Sushi, Dumplings, or Sides): My Pick: Salmon Avocado Roll (white rice, salmon, avocado, seaweed caviar) & Ginger Beef Dumplings. Goddaughter's Pick: Charred Avocado Roll (white rice, crab, cucumber, charred avocado, black caviar) & Spicy Eggplant. The culinary creativity here is next level. Everything from the aroma & presentation to the very first bite was incredibly impressive. The service was top-tier as well. Our main server was warm & attentive, & two other team members checked in throughout our meal to ensure we had everything we needed. Value-wise, you can't beat it, our lunches plus two glasses of Prosecco came out to just $60 total. Whether you're plant-based or a full-on omnivore, Beyond Sushi is a must-try. You will not be disappointed. To note, post lunch, I received a thank you email from the restaurant. Fabulous experience across the table.
