Great food, steady poor service
I love Curly's! The food is comparable to taste and fare to Foodswings but with more for your money. However the service always is awful. The owner and cooks are always nice and polite but it seems to be a policy to hire only rude and lazy waitresses. I love it here but find myself going back less and less because of this.

Used to be better
Curly's used to be better. Now, a lot of the food is over spiced. Order a burrito- expect a big mush inside of it with hardly any good flavor. A lot of stuff is fried, too. Smoothies are good. Service is great (delivery guy and waitresses). But the owner will never remember your name, despite how regular of a customer you are.

salty food, cool atmosphere
Curly's is a fun place to eat/hang out with friends...I can't deny that the atmosphere is awesome. But my food--I ordered the vegetarian spicy chicken quesadillas--they were wet, which are the worst with quesadillas, and almost uneatably salty. Also, 80% cheese.

Tostadaaaaa
The Tostada salad = AMAZING! I'm not even a vegetarian but I LOVE this place! I was in the mood for a huge salad and this hit the spot :) I had my salad with the spicy chicken and it was extremely delicious. The garlicy kale & butternut squash burrito as well as the buffalo & bleu cheese burger were also at my table and everyone agreed that this food was to die for...go whether you are a veg-head or not!

THANK GOODNESS FOR CURLIES!
This is by far the best little hole in the wall I've discovered. It's cozy, cool and the food is to die for. I can eat the Santa barbarella over and over again. The sweet potato fries are amazing as well as the buffalo hot fries. The waitresses are cute and alternative most of the time so that's fun to look at and the art on the walls keep you mesmarized. They certainly have my business.

Curly's FOREVER
this place is the BEST. CURLY'S is one of the most incredible and HEALTHY DELICIOUS vegetarian food, made with love, served with respect, tasty, yummy, wholesome food. What more could anyone want from a fofu sloppy joe, vegan pancakes, and schmear, whatever that is, but its CURLY'S FOREVER

I love Curly's.
I cannot believe people are bashing my beloved Curly's. I live in Baltimore - not the friendliest place for vegetarian food...not the worst. There is one thing I always look forward to when I make the pilgrimage to NYC, and that's Curly's. I know I can get the tastiest and most reasonably priced homestyle veg food. I love the blue plates, especially the subs! Where else can you get a frothy Mexican chocolate shake .... that's vegan?! I've been a vegetarian for my ENTIRE life, I think I know what good veg food tastes like. I've been to my fair share of potlucks and had some of the crappiest lentils that could pass for baby-waste. Trust me, Curly's is the best!
