Margaret McInroe

Love the vegan buffalo strips ! Also great are the tortilla salad and banana bread . One of the owners is a comedian and hosts a comedy show at the East Village location. Viva V Spot!

Talia Imbrescia

Kale tostadas and a green juice are delicious, and perfect for assuaging Sunday morning what-did-I-do-to-my-liver-last-night guilt

Van St-Louis

A unique Vegan Latin joint. Being latin myself I have great appreciation for everything in their menu. Try my fav., the Bandeja Paisa a true latin dish. South American trip for your taste buds.

N. S.

I’m not usually a big fan of vegan food , but the fare at V Spot is very tasty! Really great flavors. Also serves nice cocktails . A good brunch spot .

Carol

The food is good and the happy hour deal includes the option of +$2 for an empanada . Unfortunately the VSPOT burrito did not settle well and made me feel sick.

Caroline

Empanada appetizer & Chicken Parm Hero entree were deelish! Tasted the BLT club and sweet potato fries , too, and they were also winning. Looking forward to pumpkin cheesecake , which we got to-go. Yum!

Lina Alfonso

Great veggie Latin American spot! The lentil soup and the Colombian empanadas are delicious!

Margot Mazur

Listen. The food is amazing, but expensive . Get the bean empanadas (two per order) and a beer , and take it easy.

Anna M

Kale tostadas are tasty! Also the tempeh bacon is impressively bacony - good option for meat enthusiasts.

Brad Klein

Solid empanadas ! Corn elote my fav but shroom n chz surprisingly delicious

Victoria

Great vegan Latin American food . Tons of options to choose from.

Michelle Wendy

Comedy show is lacking-one time started late & an occasional performer w/ one too many anti-gay & racist jokes is quite offensive, once caused a couple to leave. Empanadas w/o fresh bite, ok filling.

Amy Shackelford

Delicious buffalo strips and lasagna was AMAZING. Vegan food at its finest.

Jhonn Thomassen

$10 unlimited mimosas at brunch is a great deal, but they can be VERY slow to refill your drink. You may have to politely ask your server to do so from time to time.

Bobbie

Customer service is great! Gluten-free foods...can't go wrong. Going back for the FREE comedy show on Thursday nights!!

Will Garré

Great monthly comedy show! I had a vegan cupcake here, and it was quite toothsome.

Meg Lewis

Latin inspired vegan food . Get the nachos . Their homemade chips (and salsa ) are the best.

Margaret Schnipper

Excellent empanadas . Kale & chickpea side was good. French fries were soggy and undercooked. Service was pleasant, but not at all attentive.

Adrienne M

Suuuuuper yum empanadas . The Philly cheese one actually tastes like the real deal, inside fried pastry . Ambient music is not so... ambient.

Allie Mahler

Delicious salads . Add tempeh . Get the Ginger Squeeze juice if you have a cold.

Amy Surgan

Here's your menu- Colombian empanada , buffalo "chicken " skewers , and jerk "chicken " wrap ! Cash only !

Uber NYC

Offering one free Philly Cheese or Columbian empanada during Uber NYC's #BKLOVESuberX, 8/23-25/13.

Lily

Save some room and get the peanut butter bomb cake !

Talisa Grossman

Chipotle wrap was amazing so goooooooood

Trent Morrison

Any of the burritos are definitely a great choice!!

Karina Ruzinov

Amazing chocolate milkshake , definitely a must have, even just to go.

Justin Wohlstadter

The portobello salad with tempeh bacon is amazing.

Andre K.

The Buffalo 'wings ' are really good here a must try along with any of the wraps .

Showtime Network

Hands down the best vegan restaurant to satisfy your hunger…likely to sway any staunch meat eater into thinking vegetarian meals lack sustenance. - Whitney

John John

The restaurant doesn't have artificial sweeteners. If you want to use Splenda or Sweet'N Low in your drinks, make sure to bring it with you.

M Gonzalez

Try the nachos or kale tempeh salad

NY Mets Katie ❤️⚾️✈️

Their Sunday Brunch cannot be beat! $10 all you can drink Mimosas and Tofu Scramble !

Vanessa Peña

GF nachos were delicious. Just an FYI, this place is cash only .

Red Fraggle

Definitely try the BLT. Leave room for their desserts ! SOOO good!!

Lindsey Smith

Come for the food, stay for the artwork - great local pieces!

Lina Trifon

The food was nice, though a bit fat. The service wasn't so good as the waitress took my plate while I was still eating.

Dave V

The vegan chicken burrito is one of the best burritos I have had.

Christina Liew

Everything!

Michele Rubin

Everything

Jacob Anderson Cooper

Jamaican wrap is very tasty, spicy and filling.

Guestlist.com

I still can't believe none of this is meat!! Don't forget to try the empanadas .

Patty S

Food was amazingly fresh and fulfilling =-)

Chuck Monsanto

The chicken cutlet is scary good. I had to double check it was vegan , that's how good it is.

Leah Kopperman

Love the vegan buffalo wings and beautiful backyard . Happy hour 2-for-1 drinks until 8 on weeknights!

Charles Rockhill

The "chicken " burrito is awesome...especially if followed by the brownie cheesecake .

Joe Gruchacz
