Amazing
Best Vegan food in the city, highly recommend! The staff is wonderful, lots of options from sandwiches, wraps, burritos, toasts, salads, create your own meal, smoothies, teas, coffees, and baked goods! Beautiful environment too great for hanging out or working on the laptop. And before you eat go take a yoga class at Jivamukti Yoga School! It will change your life.

ADORE this place! Best in NYC!
I love Jivamuktea cafe!! I may eat here to much!! The staff is friendly and helpful, and the food is to die for!! I have no idea what they do to it but it is healthy and addictive!! The Yogis Choice with rosemary seitan, coleslaw, and quinoa is my absolute favorite thing to get.. That of course with one of their delicious Oatmeal Raisin Cookies and Green Coconut Tea.! I LOVE LOVE this place can't say enough great things about it.. EAT HERE!!

Unpleasantly Surprised
I'm really stunned by the reviews here. I ate here for the first time two days ago, and the service was great but the food was definitely below average. The people at the counter and the cook were very pleasant and helpful but the food was so basic and boring I could have just eaten at home. Honestly you can get a better vegan sandwich down the street at Le Pain Quotidien. Plus the red velvet cupcake tasted like it came out of a box. Non vegans, please don't judge all vegan food based on this place. The only reason to eat here is because you've just finished a yoga class and you're too tired to go somewhere else.

Food is great, not the staff
Too bad the staff is horrible, because the food is really good. Delays are long, but i make sure i have enough time when i go there. unfortunately, i never WANT to go there anymore because of the staff. you would expect different from a vegan cafe in a yoga studio, even if it is one of the most commercial ones in ny. someone needs to step in and oversee the hiring and realize that the staff there also reflects on the image of the studio.

Rude!
I don't know if it's possible for the staff at Jivamuktea to be any more rude. What's with these hostile yogis? Yeah, the food is cool, and can be quite tasty, and the environment pleasant for hanging out. But the people that work are bad enough for discourage me from going back.

Best food in NYC
Jivamuktea cafe is my favorite place to eat in NYC! The food is amazing, everything is fresh, organic and vegan. Try to yogi's choice with rosemary seitan and quinoa. All of their salads are to die for. I am addicted and cannot recommend it enough. Also take a yoga class before hand for the full experience.

mixed bag
Love the food but the service is often shockingly unfriendly, and/or spacey. They seem to expect tips for taking a counter order, which often takes forever. It's a shame, because otherwise I'd be there all the time as the food is really great.
