Best Vegetarian / Vegan Restaurants in Governors Island

We got the omnivore tasting menu. One of our party had a significant food allergy. The staff and kitchen were great, substituting from the vegan menu in the case of one item, and steering us clear of one choice. The food is creative and fun, not pretentious. Pig jowl on grits with red eye gravy and huckle berries was a particularly good course. A dessert made with cranberry beans and huckleberries was really tasty also. Fun vibe in the restaurant.

Truly one of the most memorable dining experiences I have had in recent memory. I have always loved French food and culture, but this is sometimes difficult to square with my vegetarian dietary restrictions. This is not a problem anymore! The menu at Delice & Sarrasin is astoundingly creative both in its conception and execution. It offers many flavorful plant-based choices that even the most carnivorous diners would call an outstanding meal and a true reflection of French "gastronomie". The selection of wines available and dessert menu also added a lot to our meal. The ambiance, service, and food are all top-tier, and I would recommend this restaurant in the strongest possible terms. We will be sure to return!

We had a great dinner on a Sunday night two days before NYE. It was busy, but the staff was attentive and our food was delicious. The back portion of the restaurant had tables that were very close together, which felt crowded with trying to handle our coats and items we had carried with us in the city. It was also a bit loud but expected given how busy it was. Overall I highly recommend Casa DAngelo for authentic Italian food in Little Italy!

Our waitress was so nice and the food was delicious. You have to try the Shakshuka

Yes, and yes. I'm by no means a food critic or influencer. As a matter of fact, I will say that trying this food has given my mouth a whole new level of happiness. We had the curry cauliflower in cashew sauce, along with the stir-fried vegetable platter, and they were both delicious. The creamy texture of the curry cauliflower and the way the flavors melted in my mouth were excellent. The staff was amazing and attentive. The dessert (Pecan chocolate chip) cookie was a hit for me with their Chai tea added to the experience. Great flavors and healthier for you. . .I will be back.
