I gave them a second chance on a whim being that they were the only vegan option still open. The biggest issue with Toad Style is that don't season their food! It is so danggone bland! If you don't use some seasoning then throw in some flavorful produce. I like that they are not based with a bunch of soy and processed ingredients, but man there are better options out there especially for the price. My first order I tried their mock gyro and though the texture was right it didn't have any flavor. I also tried their chili fries... don't do it! They were soggy and guess what also bland. Tonight I had there sunshine burger which was better than what I tried before, but the patty has that sinking mush texture which is made worse by the fact it had no taste. I also had fried pickles, which were not made well as the batter was soggy and not crisp like you'd expect, the worst fried pickles I've had. I'm done and I mean it, with this place. read more

I ordered the Cheeseburger, Chili & Chips, Spinach Artichoke Dip & Chips, and Potato Salad. Fast service, the patty was a little tender for my liking, and the spinach & artichoke has that vegan taste, it's not an exact replica of the real thing, but Overall I am impressed by this business. Chili was my fav, then the burger and the rest followed. If you're Vegan! EAT HERE! read more

The staff was very helpful and patient! It was such a laidback vibe. The buffalo cauliflower was tasty, I would've loved it a bit more spicy. The cheese fries were excellent, very tasty and I'm so happy no faux cheeses out of a bag were involved. The cowboy burger- big pictured was my favorite. We had it cut in half and I'm glad because it was messy and we ate on a park bench because the eat in area is closed! The rainbow cookie is great if sweets are your thing. My kids loved it! read more

Very cute toad logo/sign. The kung fu theme was interesting, if a bit curious. Also it seemed like they used to have a bunch of good sides but don't anymore (fries, cauliflower, etc.) so it can be hard to get a full meal. I personally prefer beyond meat over black bean burgers but for what it was it was really good! read more

Toad Style - Sunshine Burger (front), Cowgirl Burger - Vegan Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

What a cool name - so I had to stop by. The two workers I saw were friendly and inviting. The interior is small with high top bench seating for a few people and a waiting area with a bench in the front. I ordered two items, the California burger and the Greek salad. The bun on the burger was soft and fresh, the patty was a unique blend unlike any plant based burger I've ever eaten - EXTRAORDINARY! I wish I lived closer because this burger was phenomenal. The. Avocado and sweet mustardy sauce with a slight kick of spiciness finished off the masterpiece of this burger. The Greek salad was good. It has lettuce, kale, olives, cherry tomatoes, red peppers, and it is topped with a crumble. The crumble on top lacked the acidic bite one gets from feta cheese, and just seemed lacking something, possible a pinch of salt? Overall I am satisfied with my meal and very happy to have taken a chance with this place. The burger alone is worth the trip. read more

When it's good it's GOOD, but the food is really hit or miss depending on who's working/cooking. Looooved TS when they first opened but now it feels like there's minimal quality control. Things often aren't made consistently, either with different ratios of ingredients, leaving out an ingredient or two, or just totally sloppy composition. For the price it's kind of a risk. Sometimes the fried cauliflower is bombbbb, other times they're cut way too big, difficult to eat and way under-fried with goopy batter in the center. Wanted to love their new buffalo cauli but made the mistake of getting delivery, and they came without dipping sauce, soggy and borderline inedible until I rebaked them in the oven the next day. 90% of the food here is way over-salted for me, but the last time it tasted like they forgot salt completely. Also, the super friendly dude who used to always work the counter (I think a co-owner?) has been replaced by staff that seem annoyed at the presence of other people and are way too snarky for even my vibe. Where'd ya go, friendly dude? Miss u. read more

SO GOOD. I am blessed to be a repeat customer here. They have valid prices, quick service, and most of all, scrumptious vegan food. I always go for the Jackfruit pulled pork sandwich and i devour it. Always takeout, as they don't have seating inside. The team is always so nice and they seem cool like most vegans. The only tiny gripe i have is that their menu doesn't include fries. Luckily most delis around have pretty solid fries, or you can get vegan mac and cheese on the side instead. Pull up in Toad Style. read more

Be warned - Caesar Salad is sad. Lettuce, a side of less than amazing dressing and a cup of seeds. Disappointing. read more

This is the only vegan place where I felt like the "cheese" didn't have a strange slimy texture!!! I had the BBQ jackfruit which I loved. The BBQ sauce is delicious and the pickles do not overpower the sandwich. I did think the bun was a little thicker than I would have wanted! All in all I would have this again, it was such a big serving that I couldn't finish the whole thing. My fiancé had the gyro. She said it was spectacular but definitely good. I tried it and it was a little spicy and sour. It was good but not better than the jackfruit. The star of the show were the animal fries! THEY WERE TO DIE FOR! I forgot I had a sandwich in front of me because of the fries. They had tons of flavor and were cooked really nice. The sauce used was a bit sweet and went perfectly with the "cheese" and onions! These were a must have ! read more

The food here is simply DELICIOUS!! If you have a soy allergy then this is the place for you!! It's hard to find vegan food that's soy free. So when I found this place on yelp I had to check it out..... and it food is so freaking good!! The place is small & takeout orders take awhile so it's best to order ahead. But I swear I hope they never change a thing!! So so so F-omg good! Update I think I come here too much. Lol I order online for pickup for the first time. I order 2 burgers and they new exactly which one was mine. lol cause they put my name on it. read more

I love this place and after ordering delivery many times, I finally went in for a delicious Friday night meal. After braving an intermittent rain shower, we walked in to the cozy warmth of vegan delights. I opted for my favorite, the banh mi and my brother for the philly with fries to split. I was torn between that and the sunshine which is a true culinary delight in its own right as is the cheeseburger. After about 10 minutes, our food arrived and we chowed down. The food here is always hot and fresh and the fresh cut fries are made from Yukon Gold goodness and are the substance of my fry dreams. As for the banh mi: what it lacks for in pork it makes up for in freshness. As always, the bread had that characteristic signature Vietnamese baguette texture: The ultimate balance the perfect chewiness and crunch. The toppings are crunchy crisp and the mushrooms are perfectly seasoned and fried to perfection. The aioli is the perfect finish to this veganized Vietnamese mainstay. Love this place. Good food and food vibes. read more

Amazing food. Would recommend to someone who want to test out some highly creative vegan meals.

This is one of my go to spots for sure, I'm glad to live close by to this place. It's a gem Foreal. Cozy, chill spot. Everything is so tasty and reasonably priced, the staff is super friendly, and they are always playing some amazing music, too. I generally try to avoid bread so I was always coming in for soups and salads, but I recently realized that you can turn any of their Sandwiches into Tacos or a Salad! love it! Very recently I had the BBQ Jackfruit Salad w/ some Avocado and a dope soup, with lentils, beans and some other veggies. They also offer some sweets as well! Check it out! #plantbasedgawd read more

I'd give this place 10 stars if I could! I loved everything from the quaint inside to the atmosphere to the customer service and don't even get me started on the food!!! I've actually never tried fried cauliflower so I decided to give it a shot here and I am so glad this place was my first experience! It was ridiculously delicious! In fact, it was so good that I wanted to turn right back around and get another order of it!!! The customer service was awesome and the environment was very laid back. Not sure if there were any public restrooms since we didn't need to use the bathroom at the time of our visit. I will for sure be back next time I'm in town!! read more

Review from a meat eater POV: Never realized Vegan food could taste so good. I'm a 100% bonafide carnivore, but tried this out in the attempt of a "healthier option" after a week of being so fat I was starting to smell like bacon when I ran. First up, the place is tiny and kinda looks like any old crappy deli from the outside, but on the inside it's decorated with memorabilia from loads of old kung-fu movies which is kinda cool. Seats about 10 people on the inside. Menu wise, this place is great. I love how it's a low barrier for entry for meat lovers such as my self. For example, the plant/nut based chemistry that is meant to resemble a cheeseburger, is still called a cheeseburger on the menu. That way I know exactly what kind of taste this concoction is meant to have, and therefore I know if I will like it. Don't nobody know what a "pulverized hemp & lentil disk topped with curdled almond excrement" is meant to be, but call it a cheeseburger; and I'm there. Anyway, I had the Bahn Mi and my girlfriend had the Pulled Pork. Bahn mi - very tasty indeeed. All the usual ingredients of a bahn mi, but swap the meat and pate out for coconut crusted oyster mushrooms and a shiitake, nut blended pate. The oyster mushrooms had so much crisp to their coating, and a good amount of bite on the inside, I honestly didn't notice the lack of meat. Top it all with whatever goes into vegan aioli and a spicy sauce and we were into a winner! Pulled pork sandwich - served with all your usual pickles and onions and what not, as well as the aforementioned fermented almond excrement (otherwise known as 'cheese'); except here the pulled pork is made with Jack fruit. That's right! Some kind of stringy fibers fruit, loaded with BBQ sauce. Flavor-wise it was great. Texture wise you could tell it wasn't pork - it was a little mushy and lacked the resistance of our good old piggy friend, but still - very tasty indeed. All in all the Bahn Mi was the winner here for me, but I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu! read more

I found a maggot in my soup. So the few times i had Toad Style i thought it was just okay. I continued to go back and one day i went and ordered the Hominy soup and as i was eating it i noticed something in my spoon that didn't look like soup. It was a maggot, i brought it back to the restaurant and they confirmed it was a maggot probably from unwashed corn ? they just gave me a refund, but i also found a piece of paper in my breakfast sandwich and the sandwich itself ended up hurting my stomach so .... do what you want with that information lmao ! read more

Finally back in the city for a few days and knew I had to come back. Still delicious and a fun place but bummed that they were out of a few items on a Saturday including cauliflower (no fried cauliflower)! We did get the great cheesy broc and fried pickles to share. The cheese sauce was pretty much amazing. Two of us got the bahn mi and felt like there was an acid note missing. Another got the sunshine burger and though tasty, perhaps a little on the sweet side. read more

So I must say .... this is quite the beginning for a long term relationship with vegan cheesy comfort food goodness. This place will make you believe in the possibilities of life after dairy ... until a customer brought her medium sized dog into the restaurant with wrapped in her right arm after picking him up from walking on a leash outside. She and 'Fluffy' walked past my table and a my once lovely meal... 'Fluff' was between us therefore he was uncomfortably close to my food. She ordered her food to go with 'Fluff' in her arms and put him down on the floor to pay. I fought with myself to leave my cheesy goodness on the table, mention something to her, or mention something to the staff. I didn't have the words .... this required written reflection ... So she and Fluff walked past me with Fluff using his fours to the floor. An ounce of grace cake over me with Fluff further from my cheesy goodness until ..... Fluff decided to shake the rainwater off his body ... yep ... that happened in real true life. I believe my agitation was apparent as I glared at Fluff until was COMPLETELY dry and pushed my cheesy goodness away because she apologized with, 'sorry.' Again I fought with myself, but the words were quite there to replace my shock for the utter disregard. In response she picked up Fluff and sat him in her lap with 2.5 arms length away. Once the to-go order was complete she and Fluff picked up the order with Fluff away from me and closer to the counter. Besides the wet dog, wet dog owner, and my allergies acting up, the potentially contaminated meal was great. read more

I've been vegetarian for almost 2 years now, and shied away from vegan measl because dairy cheese is LIFE. But Toad Style has definitely open my eyes, and gave me reason to believe that veganism isn't all that bad. Although very cute inside, this is definitely a pick up and take out spot. The seating is limited and very tight. I went on a late Friday night, so there was seating available, but knowing what I know now if I'm ever just in the area I'll be taking out. NOW-- about the food. I came here with my boyfriend who's a proud carnivore, staying as close to his roots as possible-- of course he order the "cheese"burger. Now as I said before CHEESE is LIFE. So the thought of almond cheese made me depressed. But after trying his burger i most say, it wasn't all that bad. Now the burger itself was amazing. Not sure what the Pattie was made of, probably a mix of quinoa, mushroom and herbs. But it was delicious. I probably would've tore it up with out the cheese. Now my meal was amazing all the way around. I had the BBQ jackfruit. That's probably the closest I've gotten to eaten meat in years. The texture was almost like tuna, But the taste was amazing. The BBQ sauce was sweet and tangy. The roll was light and crispy, all in all a satisfying meal, I'll definitely be back. read more

I'm praying. Yes praying that they will deliver to my house. I ordered for the first time today and I'm super loving them!! Got the Bahn Mi made with coconut battered oyster mushrooms. OMG so good! I made several IG stories about this one place! I seek a certain satisfaction and they delivered! I can't wait to try the pulled "pork" sandwich. If it's even close to what I'm eating now then they are moving to the very top of my MUST HAVES list. read more

I'm new to the "Meatless" lifestyle and I seen this spot from another reviewer. The fried cauliflower caught my eye, so I wanted to try. Once ordered, the wait begins. I waited for about 30 mins! But it was cool, I was scrolling though Instagram. Once the food was ready, I wasn't going to wait until I got home, I indulged after I put the seat belt on. The Fried Califlower......... is A-mazing!! The Batter meshes with with dips, and it's not oily at all. Definitely worth the wait. I'll definitely will be coming back. Whoa. read more

I'm not a vegan/vegetarian and NEVER will be. Like NEVER. I will however be a Toadstyle-ian for as long as this place is around! :) I've had this place bookmarked for as long as I've been in Brooklyn (9 months) and even though it's literally a 7 min walk from my house and my job, you know, life gets in the way and I just never made it out there. This place is a little on the pricey side, but well worth what I spent and the $4.99 in delivery on GrubHub, which by the way, was on time. I ordered the grilled cheese with the homemade almond cheese, heirloom tomatoes and I added avocado slices for an extra buck. I loved this sandwich. The bread was nice and crispy and chewy at the same time. The almond cheese had a runny consistency, at first I thought it was because the sandwich was still very warm when I got it, but even as it cooled down it kinda remained runny. No biggie for me because it still tasted great and I really liked the fact that is was homemade. Also, the tomatoes seemed to be marinated in like a lemony sauce or they might have added the homemade horseradish to it. The avocado was nice too, no dark spots and they were't stingy with it either. Overall, the grilled cheese was just plain good! If I would've known the fried pickles were so good, I think I might've gotten two orders! Even though I placed my order through GrubHub and I had to have it delivered, it showed and was still wonderfully crispy! I don't know what breading they use, but its so good! The horseradish sauce is also homemade and comes with the pickles, but I didn't really taste horseradish so much, I actually thought it was very lemony. Don't get me wrong, I still thought it was the BOMB! One last note, although the Pilot Kombucha is $7.00 a bottle, you should try one at least once. TREAT YO' SELF! I had the Lavender Peach and wowie, it was phenomenal! Please go! You won't regret it! read more

On a Saturday night when you are feeling down and bored with life, order a cow girl and cheesy fries instead of that 6 pack and camel blues - small changes - the tiniest shifts in your decisions create ripple effects - toad style is there for those moments - to remind you that the changes you make that are better for yourself, (like eating a delicious vegan burger instead of a meat based one) carry powerful charges for the future. It's a magical place and I am so blessed to have met dia my old roommate who introduced me to them. Thank you. read more

I'd rate this more in the 3.5 star range - for a spot that we stopped by without knowing about it beforehand, we didn't have too many expectations. The restaurant is very small and seems to be more of a takeout place as there were a lot of calls coming in. There isn't any AC so it was a little hot sitting in and eating but there was a fan going and free water inside so it wasn't too bad. My friend and I ordered a BBQ Pulled Pork and Cheeseburger respectively, and they were both decent! Definitely tasty and filling especially considering it's vegan and gluten-free, although I noted that the "beef" patty (mushroom and lentil) was pretty thick and could have been a little smaller with more lettuce/other veggies on the bun and that the BBQ pork was too heavy on the BBQ sauce which overpowered the other flavors in the burger. However, I can definitely see how this is a popular spot especially for vegans craving some good sized burgers. Price wise it wasn't cheap ($9 for cheeseburger, $11 for bbq pork) but it wasn't expensive considering it's New York lol. I'd say it's worth a try if you're in the area! read more

Yes, it was cramped, dark and noisy with people. There were weird stuffed animals and old toys on shelves in the back. However, the smell was amazing. And the guys behind the counter were under pressure but kept their cool. The menu was so exciting - I wanted to try it all. I got the sunshine burger and my dad got their gyro with a ginger soda. We agree that both are amazing!! I have had a lot of vegan food in my life, but Toad Style is something else. The slightly spicy patty paired with the cashew cheese and avocado and spring greens on a pretzel bun. Wow. I am even more intrigued by some of the other menu items that I've never had before. I'm hoping they'll get more business so they can up their interior design game. But sometimes, delicious food is all you need (and I noticed their A rating from the health department- good enough for me :). Great place. read more

The tofu scramble ($11) here is amazing! I loved the chickpea, and the hollandaise sauce was a little mustard-y, which I thought was great. It's in patty format, and I actually preferred the texture over other tofu scrambles I've had (which are made to look more like scrambled eggs). I wasn't as much of a fan of the mac and cheese ($8); both the taste and texture were a little off to me. COVID NOTE: None of the staff wear masks. read more

I've lived in a lot of states and eaten a lot of vegan food but I consistently go back for the food at toadstyle. Some of my favorite options are the Bhan mi, the bbq jackfruit sandwich, the Greek kale salad, cheesy broccoli, and the pizza fries and California burrito when they are on the seasonal menu. This is vegan greasy spoon cuisine which was made popular during the beginning of the food not bombs anarchist punk movement that aimed to feed the homeless. I'm unsure if this is because of how often I visit or if this is always the case but the staff calls me by my name and depending on busy they are will stop and shoot the sh*t. It can get busy so if you have a large group you may want to call ahead to see if its slammed. The music ranges from hip hop to rock mostly but I've enjoyed a meal or two to some cole porter and enjoyed a movie in the summer when they have their screen down(though not sure if they do this still). The vibe is neighborhoody and young people in their 20's-30's tend to congregate here. While I enjoy the space it is a small space and when busy can feel intimidating to sit elbow to elbow as I pelican down my food like a bad mannered socially questionable human. sometimes I just call and get my order for pick up to enjoy it at my place. Pro tip: I check their Instagram to see what their special is since their website doesn't list It. read more

Well for starters, I'm not a Vegan, just a lover of good food. The foods here is quite amazing, however, I do believe prices are a bit steep for the area, but the demographics are slowly changing here in Bedstuy so I get it. My favorite items are the Bahn Mi, and the fried cauliflower. My only complaint is that I feel unwelcome every time I walk in to order my food. This is brooklyn, "you gotta spread love, its the Brooklyn way" RIP Biggie. The personnel behind the counter could be more enthusiastic and more welcoming. Ordered again 3/15/17 this time the Beet Ruben pictures included. It's uniquely flavored however it's not my favorite. read more

Vegan comfort food in a punk meets martial arts themed restaurant in Brooklyn. While this might not sound shocking to you the food will shock you with its piquant, sweet, and savory dishes! Food**** When people hear the phrase "comfort food" they tend to associate it w/ unhealthy--Toad Style is only half that (fries and other fried foods). There is a good amount of healthy, superfoods on this menu. We ordered the Sunshine burger, which features Toad Style's own house made patty (refreshing in the age of BEYOND and IMPOSSIBLE), arugula, cashew dill cheese (amazing), avocado, sweet chili mustard, and served on a pretzel bun and a side of fries--definitely a winner (Side note: ketchup is house made and very good but you must request this as they do not have it out and we accidentally dumped some hot sauce on our burger). Additionally, we tried the Tofu Scramble from their brunch menu (served until 4pm daily!)--made with Burmese tofu and topped w/ Hollandaise sauce and veggies. The scramble was light yet creamy and delicious! At the end we ordered the raw peanut butter cup by Culiraw. It was much smaller than we expected (not their fault--ours) but very delicious. Service**** Counter service and you bus your own tables and dependent on your beliefs you may like or dislike that but I like how I feel when I help the restaurant. Not five stars, not three-4! Atmosphere*** Appropriate for all--couples, families, LGBTQIA+, straights, and everyone in between! Price$ Great food at an excellent price! read more

Toad Style use to be a 7 star rating. Hands down. I had been coming here since 2016-ish. About 2-3 years ago things began to change. First the Bahn Mi with oyster mushrooms (my fav) disappeared. Then the regular and buffalo cauliflower was removed from the menu in due time. Then "gluten free" options began to take over. Eventually no fried food. Phone off the hook for hours. Flavors gone. It's just been sad. I don't bother to even look at the menu anymore. And I know other previous long term loyal customers feel the same way. read more

I never write reviews but I had a great delivery meal from this spot. I'm on a vegan diet and stay away from coconut oil so options are very limited and I tend to mostly cook for myself. it's hard to find a spot with nut based cheese, but the cashew dill cheese I had on my burger was really good. I got the sunshine burger and a slice of raw blueberry cheesecake and everything was delicious and the burger was still hot. All in all a great vegan burger that didn't feel like gross deep fried fast food but still very comforting. I appreciate how much detail they provide about ingredients on their site. I was pretty much tied to the idea that delivery options just aren't there for me but this place proved me wrong! read more
