Editorial Description by Citysearch
This is one of the city's few upscale, all-vegan haute cuisine restaurants. The meatless, dairy-free menu focuses on seasonal ingredients and everything--including the beer and wine--is 100 percent organic. The eclectic offerings span a dizzying ethnic range of Indian, Mexican, Thai, and Italian flavors, including a burrito and "burger" for lunch and handmade pumpkin gnocchi, seitan cutlets and tofu fra diablo for dinner. Warm wood tones and spartan decor means the food takes center stage.

Luv it..  4 Star Rating - Very good

By Jesse W. | insider_expert Insider Expert | Rank: 7,770

Had one of the best vegan meals...great service. Good atmosphere for that special occasion. Dessert..not that good. But worth the investment, especially if you are Vegan, good safe pick.

Outstanding Gourmet Vegan Food  4 Star Rating - Very good

By Sharyn G. | insider_guru Insider Guru | Rank: 390

Right in midtown this vegan gourmet spot really impressed me. Lovely atmosphere, very cozy lighting and funky decor. I had an amazing seitan dish and an incredibly rich chocolaty dessert. Salad was also great. Great special occasion restaurant.

Hire a cook 1 Star Rating - Unsatisfactory

By sickbadfood

Tofu Scramble...a greasy mash up.
I eat tofu all the time. I know how to cook.
You don't just chuck it all together in a pan
with oil and fry everything to death.

The salid (which was fresh) was covered in oil-based
dressing. The veggies in the tofu tasted off.

OK, thought I must have ordered the wrong thing.
So tried my buddies burger. You know, running
to a store and buying a frozen patty and throwing some
soy cheese on it is neither creative nor appealing.
The bun was store bought. Bland and tasteless.

Could be we had a bad day (place was empty)
Fries were good.
Music was bad.

I found my dish unedable and left without eating
more than a few fork fulls. I had not eaten since
yesterday. Cervantes says that hunger makes
a great sauce, but I preferred to go hungry.

Pros: Yes, it is vegetarian
Cons: They ruin food by cooking it badly

A late-'90s attitude..... 1 Star Rating - Unsatisfactory

By michaelmusicnyc

Since I dine solo a lot, how I'm treated as a "table for one" is the real test of a restaurant for me. Blossom failed miserably. Quickly: I was ignored at the door after a couple ahead of me was cheerfully greeted and seated; though the restaurant was 3/4 empty, I was told there were no tables; an obnoxious greeter thought it would be more interesting to check his texts than answer a couple of questions. I used to encounter a lot of this in the late '90s; Blossom, unfortunately, still feels like that kind of cliche.

delicious vegetarian 4 Star Rating - Very good

By NicoleNewYork

I've been to blossom a couple of times for brunch. The food is excellent- i've even taken a skeptical non-vegetarian, and he was completely satisfied with his meal. Definitely more flavor than one would normally expect from a vegetarian restaurant.

Excellent food! Excellent experience! 5 Star Rating - World class

By Shelleyab

This was our first trip to New York we went to celebrate our daughter?s birthday. She is vegan so Blossoms sounded like the perfect place to celebrate her birthday. We have very few vegan restaurants where we live, and none compare to the quality and taste we found here. The rest of the family wasn?t sure what to expect as it was our first vegan meal experience. The food, the service the entire experience was perfect! We started with Ravioli with Cashew Cream and Champinones Medley. Unbelievable! Exceptional flavor! The Chili, Feijoadinha, Phyllo Roulade were incredible, full of flavor, with excellent taste. The desserts were absolutely delicious, sinful just as they should be. All the dishes we tried were superb. We did not find the prices unreasonable at all, the portions were very generous, even took home a doggy bag. Well worth the visit, will defiantly return to Blossoms our next visit to New York!

Fabulous 5 Star Rating - World class

By fkt322921

I am not a vegan or vegetarian but my sister is. I took her to Blossom for her birthday and I was sure that even if I liked the food I would miss meat. I was so wrong. This restaurant is one of the best I have ever eaten at. Everything was very tasty. The reviews below that suggest small portions are inaccurate. My sister and I split two appetizers and could barely finish them. We each had to bring a portion of our entrees home because we were so full. I had it the next day for lunch and was reminded of why I enjoyed myself so much the night before.

Pros: Extemely tasty food, large portions, staff, quiet, and comfortable
Cons: None
