    I love going here for the seitan au poivre, and it met my expectations! Our cocktails and appetizers were all great, but my boyfriend’s entrée wasn’t either of our favorite. Solid vegan food, definitely on the expensive side.

    I’ve been at this location twice. Finally getting around to writing a review posting pics. The first time I had their French toast on a weekend. A great spot for vegan brunch btw, I just wish they offered brunch on holidays. I went again today and was looking forward to having French toast again which was unique and tasty. Will need to come back again on a weekend. On a major holiday like Memorial Day, today, I thought they would’ve had all day brunch. I tried their nachos which was good. It’s enough to share. The truffle fries weren’t bad, but I wish there was more truffle oil in it. It was good with their ketchup. I’ll be back to try their other items on the menu especially brunch. This location seemed little less busier than the Chelsea location.

    Blossom is so delicious!! Located on Columbus Avenue on the Upper West Side, this vegan restaurant is such a gem - the atmosphere is so lovely & the staff are so kind! The food is really good, too. We tried the Nachos, Seitan Piccata (with fries), and the Chocolate Ganache for dessert. Everything was so yummy, I highly recommend this spot!

    Great service and delicious food. We dined outside. I haven't had a grilled cheese (regular or vegan) THAT good in many years. The tiramisu was really good as well. Highly recommend! Please support cruelty-free Earth friendly restaurants like this one!

    Awesome vegan food that looks as good as it tastes. The service was super friendly and very helpful in deciding what to order. The sweet potato gnocchi on cashew sauce was one of the best gnocchi I have had. I thought cashew sauce would spoil the dish but whatever they did it enhanced it. The tacos were very flavorful too.

    Outstanding vegan menu. Full bar with tasty craft beers. Really nice nice atmosphere and staff. Can't wait to go back and try some more plant based quizien.

    Good vegan restaurant! The shiitake bacon was delish and truffle fries always hit the spot. I ordered their pumpkin margarita which was pretty good, I’d ask to get some type of salt or spicy salt cause the spice on the rim was dry and pasty if you drank on that side of the rim. The servers are very nice and quick to attend to you and bring out your food.

    We are here and thought it was good decent vegan food. Not out of this world but nothing bad about it at all. We had the sweet potato gnocchi, blossom burger, and fig and beet salad. Service was friendly. Environment was nice. Prices reasonable for this part of NYC.

    Great ambiance and awesome vegan options! Currently among my favorite vegan restaurants in NYC and where I chose to go recently again for my own birthday dinner. My favorites where the Buffalo Arancini, tofu BLT, kale Caesar salad, and chocolate ganache! 🔥

    Nice vegan restaurant on the UWS. Large dining room and the service was attentive. We got the lasagne which was creamy and full of flavour. We also got the pumpkin ravioli but that was a bit dry. The pumpkin cheesecake was outstanding, super creamy and fluffy.

    Ordered the lasagna which was terrific. I have to come back and try everything else! Nice decor and lunch service was really fast. The staff is very friendly. What more could you want?

    The food was delicious. I ordered the country style breakfast and was not disappointed. The lady of my life ordered the nachos and they did not disappoint either. All and all the food was splendid. I would return for sure. Not to crazy about the servers but that didn’t and won’t stop the food from being so appetizing

    Ooooo I love! First of all, this place is GORGEOUS (see pics)! Second of all, the food is fantastic! The grilled cheese is maybe the best I’ve ever had and I’m not a committed vegan so this includes regular cheese and butter ones. The bread was particularly excellent; it makes no sense why it’s that good. I normally wouldn’t eat onions on a grilled cheese but they really made this work! The fries taste like you’re eating a whole potato so you know it’s real. The nachos were good as well, no complaints there. And the mushroom pizza, although it wasn’t cut all the way through, was very good! Drowning in arugula and mushrooms! Third of all, the service was so so good! It’s been a while since I have been able to say that and it’s not a freebie for showing up to my table and being cordial. They are fast, attentive, funny, just great! Can’t wait to go back!

    This was our last dinner in NYC to celebrate our daughter's birthday. The ambiance was lovely, as was our waitress. We ordered an appetizer, entrees, and dessert - it was all superb. We love supporting fully vegan restaurants. If you go, definitely order the tiramisu!

    Best vegan brunch ever! Right by the museum so we popped in and we’re blown away by the food and service. Our waitress was awesome in pointing us in the right direction on what to order, great location and overall an ideal dining experience. Will return.

    I came for birthday brunch. I ordered the classic and it was perfect because I couldn’t decide whether I wanted or sweet and this dish satiates both. The French toast is some of the best French toast I have had. I was elated to see they offered NA cocktails, beer and wine. I had the tiramisu for dessert and it was delectable. It is way better than vegan treats.The staff were super friendly and the atmosphere was very cute and festive. I will be back to try out dinner!

    OH MY GOSH!!!! We are from NW Arkansas so of course we never get great selections of vegan meals and this was our first time at Blossom and I was blown away !!! I’d been wishing for a cheeseburger and this bacon cheeseburger was OUT OF THIS WORLD!!! Our waiter was amazing and the atmosphere was just beautiful- my husband had the mushroom risotto and it was fantastic and we finished off the night with Apple strudel which was perfect! We tried several vegan restaurants while in town to see the Met exhibit and this was by far my favorite!

  • 5/5 Jignasha A. 7 months ago on Google
    I think I made the perfect choose when I ordered grilled cheese and soup. It was actually really filling and the “cheese” in it really hit the spot. I still think of the sandwich and soup. It was pure comfort food and so well made!

  • 3/5 Janis E. 8 months ago on Google
    Berries and basil cocktail was great. Food was mediocre. Had the seitan piccata which was tough, missing the capers and drowning in lemon. Server only said everyone loves it though noted my dish didn’t look right. As a traveler that only reviews vegan restaurants I can list 10 NYC restaurants that far exceed this spot. Not terrible, but for the price I won’t come back.

  • 5/5 Josie A. 9 months ago on Google
    Best vegan food I have ever had. Mushroom scallops (special) and the Pistachio Dusted Tofu Dinner. I also had the kiwi gin drink. Highly recommend this restaurant!

  • 5/5 Bella C. 2 years ago on Google
    Really delicious food and excellent wait staff! I’ll definitely be coming back. The service was quick and it was a very pleasant dining experience. I had the tofu BLT and tiramisu and am craving it again already! Recommend visiting. I can’t wait to try their brunch options.

  • 4/5 Sierra C. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice atmosphere, waiter was very friendly and helpful with the menu, food was delicious. Prices are pretty high, the black eye pea cakes appetizer was $14 for 3 cakes, dinner for 2 was well over $100. But overall a good experience.

  • 5/5 Jeffrey U. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is pretty good.. really enjoyed that nacho cheese.. I had a classic grilled cheese with creamy tomato soup on.. the fried artichokes are pretty good too. The service is really excellent as well. A nice clean place and welcoming atmosphere... This plays 100% vegan.. the menu was pretty good.

  • 2/5 Helene 11 months ago on Google
    Their pasta dishes are a disappointment. I've tried pasta in the downtown location and it was mediocre as well. Overpriced vegan food. We got too many of them in NY. On the bright side the staff was nice and friendly.

  • 5/5 Chanelle C. 2 years ago on Google
    The food was absolutely delicious!! Completely vegan menu with gourmet quality! They have gluten free and nut free options available. Our server got some of the orders confused but he was quick to fix them and overall provided excellent service! Definitely will be returning!

  • 5/5 Rashad S. 1 year ago on Google
    Big fan of this place. Everything is how is should be. Wish the nachos could of been slightly warmer however it was good food. And the server could’ve checked on us more. Maybe it was just him. The other servers attended to their tables more. Fries were immaculate, so that made up for it!!!! I wish my stomach could hold more because I would have ordered way more food. Presentation 5/5 Taste 4/5 Speed of delivery 4/5 Price 3/5 Service 4/5

    Great food and service. All the dishes we had were very tasty and could barely tell they were vegan. They were especially attentive to my daughters tree nut allergy. I really enjoyed the lasagna and apple strudel

  • 5/5 Cameron 1 year ago on Google
    Just had a wonderful meal here at Blossom - very inviting atmosphere, friendly staff and interesting menu options. We decided to order the nachos, along with both the Seitan Picatta and the seitan in red wine sauce. The nachos were particularly good - gooey, melty vegan cheese (yes, that’s exists now!) with a lot of interesting flavors and textures and colors. Both the seitan dishes were beautifully presented and very tasty. Overall, wonderful dining experience here with what seems to be many options for people who have dietary restrictions as well, such as gluten intolerance. It’s a bit pricey, but it lives up to the price.

    A vegan PARADISE. I love coming here to try vegan takes on my favorite foods, and they do such an amazing job at it! I love their drink selection, the summer spritz is very fruity and unique! The tofu side was a little underwhelming but tofu is a difficult food to work with so there's tons of grace for that! I'd definitely recommend this place for a date!

  • 5/5 Nasrin Y. 2 years ago on Google
    Tasty vegan burgers with gluten free options! Fries were amazing price was not bad and friendly staff!

  • 5/5 Josh K. 1 year ago on Google
    Great little vegan brunch spot. I got the eggs Benedict. Seitan ham, grilled tofu, and a really good sauce. Came with grilled asparagus and roasted potatoes. Yum.

  • 5/5 Krystal C. 1 year ago on Google
    The crispy artichokes were excellent to start. We got the seitan piccata, benedict, and benedict florentine which were all tasty. The chocolate ganache was entirely made of ganache and was delightful with the berries and compote.

  • 5/5 Sharon H. 2 years ago on Google
    best vegan restaurant I’ve been to. as a non vegan it can be hard not to compare vegan food with meat, but I thought the flavors of each dish were amazing — I loved all the sauces (I got the savory seitan and also tried the salmon tofu and lasagna). at the end of the day the texture of seitan just got too repetitive for me. the artichokes and sweet potatoes were really good, though! so were the potatoes in my seitan dish. the service, decor, ambience, and price are all also amazing. definitely worth going to!

  • 5/5 Joshua De S. 2 years ago on Google
    We decided to try Blossom on a whim as we were walking past it partly because we saw the other location in the East Village à few days prior and weren’t able to try it out and partly because my fiancé wanted satisfy her sweet tooth. I ordered the nachos which we great, so much toppings that I actually ran out of tortilla chips before the toppings. My fiancé ordered the tiramisu which she loved. It was moist and of great quality. Excellent service and lovely ambiance.

    This was a find and if you eat Vegetarian then this restaurant is calling your name. And if you don’t eat vegetarian- this restaurant will make you wonder why not??! The food was fresh, well prepared and delicious. A diverse menu with many options The servings were generous, the wait staff attentive, the beer was cold- I highly recommend. The Jackfruit tacos were crazy good!!!

  • 5/5 Jordyn B. 2 years ago on Google
    This place was very good. The service was friendly and the piccata was absolutely great…10/10.

  • 4/5 sharanya c. 2 years ago on Google
    A very good restaurant with nice vegan/vegetarian options. We ordered Artichokes, Seitan Piccata and cashew icecream. Artichokes were super delicious. The portion size of piccata is generous and good for 2, apart from being a little tangy for me I loved the dish. Cashew icecream was perfect. We had a full meal. The location is very easy to spot, the staff is really good. 👍🏼👍🏼
