“ My first experience at 4:30 on a Wednesday afternoon was confusion, the place is very clean and they have a lot of choices but if you don't recognize everything there are no signs on the serving trays to help with your selections . The food is good. I will go back again for healthy vegan food with a Jamaican touch. As soon as you enter order your freshly made juice its delicious!! They do have a menu for the juice , but there was only one guy and he was totally overwhelmed, but he handled all the orders and remembered everything he's amazing!! But a bigger juice area is needed! Street Parking is difficult next time I will go at a less crowded time, but it's local and worth a try! ”
“ Five stars for Veggie Castle! Hands down the best vegan food I've ever had--seasoned so well you'd swear the 'meat' was real. Whether you're craving oxtail, curry goat, or General Tso's, they've got it, and the portions are huge! Super friendly staff, tons of options, and even vegan beef patties. Heads up, the line can go down the block, but it moves fast since it's buffet-style (though they ration it). And their Sea Moss drinks? Massive, delicious, and worth every sip. Perfect for anyone trying to lose weight... or avoid meat with cravings! ”
“ This place is the spot for great vegan food, everything is delicious, so can't go wrong from the health happy smoothies, fresh baked sweets, amazing patties, and one of my favorite thing to get is there ginger chicken, it's amazing. The service is good, I've been there countless times. The only issue I have is the location is very busy & crowded, it's hard to find a parking outside and the inside is tight also. But overall a great hidden gem, and highly recommend it. My go to spot when I'm in nyc. ”

“ Love vegan and Caribbean cuisine? Best of both worlds here at veggie castle 2 in South Richmond, Queens, NYC. Guyanese neighborhood This is a take out restaurant and always has a line. Want a made to order drink? They've got dozens of choices here. All vegan No dairy or honey. I got the Ital Jockey as it was their top seller. It was good, but not great. I'll avoid anything with protein powder going forward and stick to mostly fruit as that's what I prefer. Next, you get to order from a menu or prepared dishes behind the glass that they'll serve to you. All vegan. I got the large: 3 sides and 2 proteins. Got mac and cheese, acorn squash, rice and peas with seiten and plantains as my sides. Proteins: faux ox tail and lollipop chicken. Faux ox tail is spiced, a bit spicy sweet and savory at the same time. Very complex. Don't eat the large spices like cinnamon sticks, etc. Chicken lollipop doesn't taste like chicken. It is slightly sweet with a great mouth feel on a wooden stick and easy to chew. Really enjoyed the dishes. A large will suffice for 4 meals for me. So tasty and filling! At the register, they've got vegan desserts. They do have a narrow place to eat inside, but very limited seating, and they've got a restroom. Took me about 15 minutes to go through the line with 5 people ahead of me having much larger orders. ”
