I already knew Williamsburg has an embarrassment of riches when it comes to dining choices, but it was the first time Jamie W. and I walked on Bedford Avenue. We were tempted by several choices after crossing the Williamsburg Bridge and traipsing through Domino Park. This pan-Asian vegan restaurant is actually on North 10th Street a half-block away from Bedford. A local vlogger in Brooklyn recommended it, and well, we wanted to have a healthy lunch since we had been gluttons on our vacation. Overall our choices were OK but definitely not outstanding. We shared an order of the $8.50 Seitan Skewers with Satay Sauce (photo: https://yelp.to/LzNm8onMVD). Shaped into spheres like meatballs, the consistency was "meaty" and the sauce helped heighten the flavor. Neither of us cared much for the $7.50 BBQ Vegan Ribs which were slices of soy protein covered in a too-sweet citrus sauce (photo: https://yelp.to/K5ZEpY0Hhr). The $10.50 Avocado Salad was pretty decent with vegan cheese, cucumber, and a carrot ginger dressing (photo: https://yelp.to/dHuxlnduVc). The $3.50 Miso Mushroom Soup was satisfying (photo: https://yelp.to/ohErzvD2dH), though we just found our overall meal less than memorable. FOOD - 3 stars...rather unmemorable vegan fare though not for lack of trying AMBIANCE - 3.5 stars...spacious enough SERVICE - 3.5 stars...on the quiet side TOTAL - 3 stars...need to be choosier about which vloggers I can trust RELATED - Exploring Brooklyn? Here's a collection of places I've visited and reviewed: https://bit.ly/2V51pX7

Soy nuggets
Denise S.

Honestly, I'm very mad at the reviews on this place. I was confident when I looked at peoples pictures and I read reviews and it seemed like everyone was very satisfied with this place. Me and my husband decided to give this place a try and it was horrible. I ordered the soy nuggets and a mixed green salad. Those were the worst nuggets I have ever experienced. They were soggy and weird and too soft in the middle, then they had big pieces of edamame in it. The sauce that came with the nuggets were also just yucky. I was not that mad at that, I was like OK just not for me so let me just get a big green salad. He said they had a very good mango dressing to go with it. When he brought that salad out it looked beautiful with the variety of all types of greens but that sauce tasted horrible! It was like they just took mango juice and just poured it all over the salad. My husband ordered the basil soy and a spring roll with a ginger tea. He can eat anything but he couldn't finish this. The spring rolls was just full of cold thick cut vegetables. He also offered basil soy ,the vegetables was not fresh. It looked like it was some leftover vegetables they threw together. I would never go back here again and I suggest no one else does because I don't know what happened that day, but it was horrible.

Bedford Ave location.

Super Live bar next door. Outdoor seating and Pan-Asian Vegan. It in a neighborly block that's really quiet but there are a few other food location ma around

Crispy M23. Crispy Soy Protein
Sandra L.

I really enjoyed the food here. The mushroom dish was really cool and unlike anything I've had before. The soy protein dish was good but I personally found the sauce to be overwhelming but the texture of the soy was great. Not pictured was the miso soup and brown rice it came with, both of which were great. I would come back here. 2 entrees was about $41

M7. Basil Soy Protein
Irene S.

Finding good vegan food that has both clean ingredients and amazing taste is difficult in my opinion so when I saw the reviews on wild ginger I had to experience it for myself. For starters we had tom yum soup, crispy soy protein nuggets and the bbq vegan ribs. For our main dish we ordered Thai basil fried rice along with Malaysian Curry Stew and basil soy protein. Then ended with the pumpkin cheesecake and peanut butter bomb. My favorites were the crispy so protein nuggets cause it literally almost tasted just like a chicken nugget and the sauce that came with it was delicious. Basil soy protein which has so much flavor and just the right amount of veggies to so protein and the peanut butter bomb. I am big into dessert and the peanut butter bomb was just the perfect touch to satisfy my sweet tooth. Now the rest of the food was just as equally amazing and to top it off the service was impeccable. We were greeted with a friendly smile and the waiter was very helpful in helping us decide what was the best dishes in the menu. The food portion was plenty and the price affordable. The food came out in a timely fashion and the atmosphere was calming and inviting. Overall we had an amazing time and will definitely be back again.

A9. Vegetable Dumplings and S1. Miso Mushroom Soup
Elijah B.

This is an all vegan restaurant with tons of options on its expansive menu. The orange seitan is an absolutely delicious option that tastes just like its chicken-based counterpart. The sauce is sweet and spicy, comes with rice and soup. The inside is standard, it's seems like a lot of locals in Williamsburg order takeaway from here.

Wonton Soup
Jessie H.

Just visited again on Saturday for the first time in such a long time. Everything was fresh and delicious. I love that everything is 100% Vegan. I really hope they evolve, and add more items to their menu. The Vegan scene is constantly changing, it would be wonderful to see new items on the menu, new desserts on the menu also. We got the Red curry Seitan, It was delicious , but it was missing the vegetables eggplant, cauliflower , just FYI. General Tso's Soy Protein , amazing! and crispy soy protein nuggets w/ plum sauce, also a Wonton soup. everything was fresh, and tasty. We will be back again soon!!!!! Ps. everything is served in plastic containers, due to Covid19, the staff, cleans and sanitizes after each customer. Thank you

Omg! I've been trying to go this place for months but since it's out of my way (reside in Queens)…read moreand it's located in Bushwick, BK, I never had the chance. Until Sunday 9/20/26, I happened to be around the area and was carving some good food so stumbled upon this place. That's when I remembered bookmarking this place on Yelp and I'm so glad I got to try this place with my friends bc every one of them enjoyed their food! I love that it's Asian fusion and learned that owners are Chinese and Bangladeshi. It felt like I was back home! What makes it better is that it has Halal options which def worked to my advantage. Every single item ordered was delicious (my least favorite was the lamb chops as it was a bit dry for my taste). Our host/waiter Kat was amazing and very patient. She answered all of our questions and made great suggestions. The place was a bit noisy but it is NYC after all! I also loved the modern decor; had a nice touch to it. Overall, I would highly recommend this place and I can't wait to return and try other items from the menu.

Today was my first time here. The place is small but nice. Very confusing on where to enter the…read morerestaurant. The staff are friendly and answered several questions and the menu. Now to the food......I ordered the crab fried rice for $24 and I received just rice with crab I could barely find. Waste of money. I also ordered the crispy garlic fried chicken. It was okay. Lightly fried chicken with soy sauce on the plate to dip I guess. I also tried the general Tao's shrimp. It was good but very spicy. I also ordered food to go for my husband. Again with the crab fried rice no crab. FYI when I ordered I told the waitress to make sure they add the crab so I don't just pay for rice. For a pint it was $17 just for rice. I packed up the chicken for him because I didn't love it and he wanted to try it. My daughter ordered the crab fried rice which had a very very very small piece of shredded crab. She liked the ribs and her general Tao's shrimp because she likes spicy. They charge for sauce but she did not tell me until I saw it on the bill. 20% gratuity and a fee for credit card use. And on the bill they have the nerve to put suggested additional tip. I don't think so. Overall this was a restaurant that I tried but would definitely not return.

Food Karaage- Juicy and flavorful and perfectly crispy. Tuna Tempura- not crispy as all.Flavor was good though. Yuzu Lamb chops- 3 basic but perfectly cooked chops.i did not taste any yuzu or miso as described.The soy sauce probably overpowered the flavors. The edamame mash potatoes served on the side were amazing,creamy with an umami flavor. Saki Miso Bronzino- Well cooked and mild miso flavor. Fried rice-Good flavor and was able to get it with a side of chicken. Chipotle Teriyaki chicken- Well cooked and flavorful. Did not get the chipotle flavors. Drinks Sakura-Perfect balance of fruity and floral,refreshing for the summer. Lit-chee sangria- Good but barely any lychee flavor.No seasonal fruit was served with it, as mentioned on the menu.

Since my friends and I all live in Manhattan, it was an adventure for us. A rooftop restaurant with an outdoor terrace yes please. Decor was gorgeous and sleek. Although the bar was small, it was lighted and eye-catching. A huge Nutcracker greets you as soon as you walk inside. The space was loft style with seating upstairs as well as an outdoor terrace. (Terrace was closed due to winter). There was a DJ booth upstairs as well which led me to believe the place might turn into a club/lounge. Lots of seating everywhere. The crowd was mild when we arrived with a few birthdays observed. As the day went on the crowd was a bit more lively. The food looked quite delicious as my friends ordered steak and eggs and an English Muffin dish with poached eggs and fries. Good sized portions for the price. However, my French Toast was less than desired. Three sad little pieces of a faux brioche bread that was served cold. No salad on the plate as you can see from the picture. This was my meal for the day and not satisfying at all. Our waitress was very nice and did her due diligence EXCEPT for our water service. We ordered water and she did not specify that there was a charge for it. When our bill came and we asked about it, she stated that we "asked for flat water not tap water". I did not recall her stating there was a charge. She assumed we wanted flat BOTTLED water and charged us for it. Not good service since she was not being transparent. Bathrooms were clean. The place is definitely a vibe. If you are looking for views of the city and overpricing in Queens, this is your place. I would have to weigh my options prior to a second visit as I can't say it would be my first choice.

I asked what sort of salt they used and was told regular salt - no my table salt at home does not have this flavor, fine keep your secrets! Sesame "Beef" - great savory flavor and not your sugary flavor from your local takeout! Good texture and chew as well. Garlic and Olive Oil Kale - this came out piping hot and all steamy but was definitely double-salted. We could not eat much of this but aside from the salt, it was flavored well. Great surprise ending was our bill was really low and I even asked if they charged us correctly (whats wrong with me you may ask)? We were told lunch items were half price on weekdays - woo! 5 star worthy if not for the kale!
