    This restaurant is definitely a good addition to the south Jamaica queens neighborhood. With some really great healthy food options. Just a few days ago me and my wife picked up some food from the real veggie cafe. We ordered a small plate of peas & rice.mac & cheese, collard greens, plantains, and crispy cauliflower with sweet chili sauce. There barbecue sauce, jerk sauce,chili sauce is spicy but not to spicy. It's just right on your meal.The crispy cauliflower, was made really good.The taste gives you the whole vibe ,like you were eating chicken.The mac & cheese was tasty, so were the collard greens & plantains. So if you are vegan or just trying to eat a little more healthy and love soul food at the same time. This is definitely the restaurant for you. The staff was great over there, very friendly and the prices were really reasonable. This is definitely a top notch vegan restaurant on the south side of jamaica. Because there are not that many healthy restaurants in the community,I would definitely go back there in the future.

    FOOD WAS EXCELLENT!!! The chief didn't appear to want to be there. Food a 10. Hospitality a 4. I ordered the large bowl. The cauliflower wings were to die for. Seasoned to perfection. I was excited to be there for the first time and I wanted the staff to be excited that I was there. I didn't get that feeling. The young woman who took our order was pleasant. The chief was at the counter when we I came in. I greeted him and I didn't receive a smile or any words. He just turned around and went into the back. I'm just happy that the food didn't treat me the same way. Thank you all for being in my neighborhood. I hope you stay forever.

    "simply delicious, healthy, inexpensive, and authentic Caribbean vegan food. Took awhile to prepare, but then I realized each plate was made fresh to order. I guess you can't rush perfection."

    If you drive to fast you will miss it. Quaint family style setting. The food is Absolutely delicious. I have had BBQ chicken, kale salad and of course Rasta Pasta. All Vegan meat. I usually call ahead about 20-30 minutes food done and ready to go. My only issue and the reason I gave them 3 stars. Is the hours of operation are not consistent as advertised but, in all fairness I did mention this to the owner and he said they have it figured out now. I hope so because his food is WORTH the wait and drive!

    It is wonderful, to have a vegan restaurant and in our community. One day that caterers to those who are trying to conformed to a more healthy way of life. It was so good, (nutritional and tasty). I shared some with my kids, and I had to go back and purchase more. Thanks for providing that experience, to my family and I. Keep up the excellent work, and God bless!

    Food is fresh, spiced to perfection, and left me feeling close to satisfied. The prices are a little up there, but that's to be expected of dishes that are all made in house. The owner/waiter was super friendly, funny, and attentive. Pictured is the curry goat and the tofu chicken salad.

    The food was incredible. Lentil tasted savory and smooth and exactly how a soup should taste. Tried out the vegan goat entree and it was cooked very nicely. Appreciate the attention and care in the cooking. The family/owners were super nice, welcoming, and comforting. Will be back for sure, once again.

    DELICIOUS food - none of it made it back to my house as I ate all of it in/on the way to the car because it smelled so good I couldn’t resist. Coconut cake is perfection. Plantains are perfectly cooked and not too oily like they do in a lot of restaurants. Only thing was I wish the BBQ jackfruit sandwich was bigger (it’s a perfect size really - but I just didn’t want it to end!!!!)

    A little hidden gem!!! Super clean cozy place with DELICIOUS vegan Jamaican dishes. Family owned on a peaceful looking street. There is a young boy helping at the counter and taking the orders who is a well-mannered pleasant surprise. Everything from veggies to the rice was very fresh and I’m a VERY particular foodie who grew up going to top restaurants in Manhattan so I highly recommend this no frills restaurant for fresh vegan Jamaican food-you won’t miss any meat if you are not a vegan, trust me.

    I visited the restaurant on Friday, 7/16/21. The cashier was very polite and welcoming. My order consist of The Mushroom bowl. Rice and pea, plantains, Cabbage, and kale/Spinach. The food was seasoned good. It was delicious. I would go there again because the atmosphere was so warm and friendly.

    Delicious food and friendly staff. Came here right from JFK on our way upstate and super glad it was on the way. The jerk sauce is the best I've had. Will definitely come back when I'm in town again.

    Came here yesterday for.a pick up order with my children for dinner. The menu had so many great choices. I had the Jerk Chicken it was so well prepared and tasty. The dessert the coconut almond cake was so amazing. Met the owners, they are so friendly and welcoming. The establishment is new and dining in is possible. For the price the portions are more then enough and worth the price. Should check if they Cater we the good is very delightful and would wow the plait.
