Wow to Little Beet for actually awesome lunch. For what it is.. fast and easy take out or relaxed cafeteria style sit down.. it had a number of super healthy options for lunch. Slugging along not able to decide on any place nearby.. I stepped into Little Beet more out of curiosity than any intent to try it. I looked up at their rear of store wall that showed options for lunch and a counter that held all the options for lunch. As interesting as it was I was happy to nod and start to leave. Then as walking out I noticed someone with a nicely cooked salmon on what looked like a fun plate of various ingredients. So slowed down and thought.. ok maybe try it. Wow.... Yum! Once committed I was ordering beets, couscous, lettuce, sunflower seeds, sesame coated avocado halves, pickled onions, fresh ginger slices and more. After all the fun healthy flavors had me add a to go order of the same things to bring back for someone to try. They Liked it not loved it.. something about knowing they don't like beets. What? That was the best part of what was on that plate. Some little dark things in with the beets were just awesome. Try for yourself. read more

Love a Little Beet but this isn't a midtown high turnover well-oiled Little Beet. Great service, but the ingredients and presentation was a bit sad. Didn't taste as fresh as usual. Went later in the day though. read more

Wow I really enjoyed this. I made my own bowl of chicken, salad, guacamole, tzatziki, rice, cucumber salad,and broccoli. Eating whole food has been troublesome bc I'm not sure what to pair my veggies with. But this was delicious! read more

Wish it was less expensive but they have so many great options here. The establishment is clean and has lots of open seating, and the staff is nice and very quick with making your order. I come here often to get a quick meal that is gluten free and healthy. read more

I've been staying for a week in the area visiting family in the hospital nearby & discovered Little Beet while looking for healthy lunch options. I tried 3 different bowls so far and each one was delicious & high quality. The falafel bowl is my favorite so far but loved the chicken esquite too. The staff is nice & the place is clean and modern. Great value for the healthy options ($14-16) Recommend it! read more

I had stopped into Little Beet when it had first opened in the Flatiron area and had been unenthusiastic about my lunch. However, that had been years ago, and I happened to be near the Upper East Side location, so I thought it would be worth giving it another try. I arrived at the awkward time of 2:45 pm, so I was between the lunch and dinner rush, which was great in the sense that there was no crowd, but also meant that the ingredients were not as fresh. The woman at the counter was very nice and helpful, guiding me to her favorite toppings, as I was building my own bowl. I started my plate with field greens. I next had to choose two vegetable dishes. The way that these items had been laid out in the display case, I was led to believe that some of the options that I had planned on selecting had already sold out; however, they were just further down the lane. Because of that, I wound up selecting the Shaved Brussels Sprouts and Roasted Beets & Lentils before seeing the Sweet Potatoes, which I had to then add as a third vegetable for an added fee. Then came a protein and a sauce, and I went with the Sweet and Spicy Tofu plus the Beet Hummus. I skipped the garnishes, but ordered a can of Strawberry Lemonade Spindrift from their vast drink selection. I then grabbed a seat at the counter by the front door, so that I could look out the window, rather than just gaze at other tables in the dining area. As I ate, I had mixed feelings about my bowl. The lettuce was fresh, and the pink hummus was sweet and smoky. The cold beet and lentil dish was delicious, but did not have the horseradish kick it was supposed to. The tofu was similarly fine, but bland and devoid of any sweet or spicy seasoning, as had been promised. The sweet potatoes were fine, but the brussels sprout salad with pecorino cheese and cranberries had a very funky flavor. The cheese was really strong and stinky, and I wound up with quite a stomachache after consuming it. With Dig, Just Salad, Sweetgreen, and other fast casual lunch spots within a block or two, I would probably not choose to return to Little Beet if I was again in that section of the Upper East Side. read more

3 roaches in my delivery order. I managed to capture one, see pictures. Never eating here again. read more

This is probably my favorite health food/salad chain store in NYC for a couple of reasons! 1. Tasty sides that are actually seasoned - compared to other places, I actually really like how they have both cold and hot veggie sides that are seasoned/well-prepared. My favorites include the shaved brussel sprout salad which is tossed with pecorino cheese and cranberries and the sauteed greens which include a citrus-y kale with chickpeas. Their sweet potatoes have consistently been very soft and never burnt. 2. Protein options - love how they have poke salmon as another option! Their beet falafel was also delicious! 3. Interesting sauces - I like how they have the tumeric tahini which gave me more curry vibes and the chimichurri sauces that are more unique. 4. Customization (more than other places!!) - I absolutely love the fact that the staff will automatically ask where you want the sauce (all over vs only on your protein for example). Plus they have options if you only want veggies without base or protein. Love the flexibility!!! Yes its another healthy food/salad place with great food so I'd normally give 4 stars but the staff's attention to customization made them a 5 in my books! Plus they give nearby hospital staff a 10% off so what more can you ask for? read more

The food is very good. I ordered the Beet Flalafel bowl. It was delicious and filling. The only downside was the sodium content. 98% of sodium for the day!! Unfortunately, I will not be ordering that again. read more

While looking for a new place to order from, I happen to come across this gem. I ordered the chefs soup bowl. It contained rice, chicken, greens, chick peas and seeds (I think pumpkin??). You also get a cup of butternut squash soup that you can pour over the contents of the bowl or eat by itself. It was so good.. very tasty and fresh ingredients. If you're looking for something healthy yet flavorful and satisfying.. definitely check this place out. And the staff were so friendly and welcoming.. I went back 3x in one week. read more

Little Beet - CHEF'S SOUP BOWL - Gluten-Free Near Me - New York, New York

One of the best meals I've had at a restaurant near work! In an area filled with mediocre and overpriced food options, the opening of Little Beet fills a void for hospital employees looking for a tasty and *affordable (at least for now...) lunch. *If you order online and enter the promo code "lenoxhill7" you get $7 off your order. Not sure when this promo ends... Ordering is Chipotle style: 1) Choose a base- I was looking for a lighter meal so decided to go for the field greens but they also have basmati rice and quinoa available 2) Choose 2 veggies- The spicy cold noodles were very good! While the sesame avocado was also good, you have to pay extra $$ for it and it doesn't really make or break your meal. My friend's avocado was unfortunately not ripe enough, making it very hard to eat. I would get the broccoli instead next time 3) Choose a protein- The roasted chicken was flavorful and not dry at all. Would like to try the tofu and pork next time 4) Pick a sauce- I really liked both the turmeric tahini and chimichurri sauces that I got 5) Pick a garnish- Really liked the pickle onions. Pickled ginger was good too (same as the ones they give you in sushi restaurants) One thing to note: Even though this kind of food looks healthy, I decided to take a gander at their nutrition menu just for kicks and was shocked to see that what I had ordered amounted to 900+ calories! Some of their calorie counts seem excessively high though but since I'm no nutrition expert, I'll take their word for it and advise the yelp community to be mindful of what they order here because it can really add up! If you stick with the simple chicken salad with a lighter dressing, it should be healthier. read more

Little Beet - Field greens, spicy cold noodles, sesame avocado, roasted chicken, turmeric tahini, chimichurri, pickled onions, pickled ginger - Gluten-Free Near Me - New York, New York

Don't let the name of this place fool you. I honestly thought it was just another salad or vegan spot, but they actually have a variety of protein and sides to choose from. Stopped by for lunch and ordered the salmon poké with shaved brussel sprouts, sweet potatoes and quinoa. The salmon poké was fresh and good, but I would definitely try a different kind of protein next time since I didn't think it mixed well with warm food. They also give you a hospital discount, which is a plus! read more

Just opened on UES! Fresh food and seems healthy. I got beet falafel bowl. It comes with baked beet falafel, basmati rice, charred broccoli, pickled onions and beet hummus dip sauce. It is warm and tasty. I've tried the other branches before and glad they opened an additional branch. More options along with Dig and Sweet Greens in the same area. There is seating available to eat inside, a few available tables. No line since it just opened. Moves quickly also as they just scoop it into a bowl. Checkout is fast. read more

Had a top notch experience at this location of the Little Beet. Service was excellent, food was delicious (salmon with green beans, lettuce, and zucchini), and prices were reasonable. Definitely like this location more than Flatiron or Grand Central...I'll return if in the area for sure. read more

pretty disappointing for the price. not impressed. soggy handful of poke and shrimp for 24 bucks is pretty gross

This place is fantastic!! I was really craving a light meal, low in carbs. I had the salmon on mix greens. The lemon dressing was amazing. This is a really great healthy option for vegan or low carb eating read more

This fast-casual, plant-based food chain recently opened near the hospital and is a great place to pick up a healthy lunch. You can order online for pick-up or design your own bowl in the store, Chipotle-style. I ordered baked beet falafel as my protein and was pleased with the taste. My friend tried to order roasted beets and lentils, but was told they had sold out and had to substitute something else instead. Overall, we had a positive experience and would come back for the customizability and vegetarian options! read more

I have nothing but good things to say of this place. The healthy bowl options are tasty, fresh and a good lunch option when time is of the essence. The staff are happy to accommodate and go out of their way to please. I enjoy giving them my business and enjoying their dishes at lunch. read more

Happy to see this place finally open! It's a little over priced for what you get but compared to dig in, just salad and sweet green who are also a block away, it's fairly more reasonable and this will be our new go to for fast casual dining. We got the keto bowl and the poke bowl. Very tasty and filling. The salmon was actually cooked pretty well for fast casual and not over cooked like most places nearby. I want to try to the beet falafel next. read more

Got lunch here two days in a row. Love that's it's a new healthy option on the UES. We opted for the make your own platter but each component we chose was delicious. The chicken, pork, and poke were all good choices. The veggies were all cooked and seasoned well. Love the sesame noodles and basmati rice. Will probably keep ordering from here again when needing something convenient and healthy. read more

Food was surprisingly delicious and high quality. Would totally make this a regular destination if I lived in NYC.

The store is dirty and the food is sloppy thrown together. It's one of the restaurants that post great pictures of food but serve garbage. A complete waste of money, you're better off burning it. read more

The perfect healthy but delicious lunch spot. I'm usually not a pork person but the braised pork was cooked so well and sriracha sauce complimented it perfectly. I also love how the menu changes for the season. read more

Great meal. I loved pouring the squash soup over the chicken, vegetable and rice bowl. Mmmm

Was looking for a healthy quick dinner near Sloan Kettering. Could not be happier. I got the Beet Falafel Bowl with baked beet falafel, basmati rice, black beans & corn, charred broccoli, beet hummus, turmeric tahini and pickled onions. I think I will be craving these flavors tomorrow. Also got a side of shaved brussels sprouts to try and loved the flavors. Nice place, clean, good service. Might be back for lunch tomorrow. read more

A very unassuming place that is actually quite filling! There are a decent amount of variety to add to your own bowl or you can order a bowl from the menu. Hearty and fulfilling. The spicy aioli packs a punch! The only downside is they don't sell any beverages, at least not that I saw read more

I have walked past this place so many times and finally decided to order online. Now I am puzzled as to why so many people go to Dig or Sweetgreen for lunch! To all who work at NYP, look no further for lunch options. Little Beet is fast, fresh, tasty, and slightly cheaper than the other typical lunch places nearby! The interior is modern and minimalist and the atmosphere is calming which makes for a nice contrast from the busy 1st avenue outside read more

Delicious food and good healthy choices. The Pork is my favorite. The staff is very helpful, especially manager Justin.

I am so grateful to all the super nice people who work here. I have a lot of allergies and food restrictions. Whenever I call after placing an order, and speak to someone to make sure my food is prepared carefully, the person who takes the call is ALWAYS so very kind. It means a lot to me, because I've had a lot of bad experiences at other restaurants with people who would rather not deal with my food issues. So thank you to Little Beet at 1291 1st Ave NYC! Cheers to you and please know how much everyone who works there is appreciated! read more

I went to the UES location and loved it! The quality is definitely better than sweet green, which is just down the block and you won't have to wait in a crazy long line. I got the beet falafel bowl and would highly recommend it! read more

Great new spot for fast-casual healthy (but still tasty) food. Poke bowl was good, will definitely be back
