Best Vegan Restaurants in Hudson Heights

We had a bday dinner for a friend. Our reservation was originally for 6. But we arrived at 715 and only waited about 20 minutes for a seat to become available. The ladies at the door were all really nice and attentive. They offered for us to check our coats and wait at the lounge area until the table was ready. The lounge area was beautiful. The seats were so soft! We ordered shots and took a few pictures and it was time to be seated. Our server was Kaylee. She was a 10 all across the board. Pleasant. Attentive. Engaged. Anyone would be lucky to have her as their server. Before going, we were told by a few different friends that they didn’t care too much for the food. However, it wasn’t our experience. We all loved our food. The serving size was just right. Not huge like some restaurants. But enough to be satisfied and maybe take a little home (if you ha appetizers). The one thing I would say needed a little extra was the bday song/celebration that they do for the bday person. It lacked energy and the fake cake and sparkles they come to the table with was very underwhelming. Not that we needed a Broadway show. But it wasn’t even worth capturing on video.

We have dined here many times and the food is usually excellent. This time was not the case. I had to return my burger as it was definitely overcooked. My friend ordered the cob salad and the chicken was also overcooked and the salad overdressed. Since this is an unusual occurrence, I would return with the thought this was a one off. The service was excellent as usual and when my burger was replaced it was excellent.

On the evening of Thursday, December 26, 2024 we dined at Red Rooster & it was a lovely experience. We are a totally blind couple & the staff could not have been more accommodating. Our waitress, Autumn could not have been nicer and more attentive. Each time she put down an item, she told us where she put the item & what each thing was. She made drink recommendations & they were spot on. The food was delicious & we asked if they could cut up our stakes & they did so, willingly and without any hesitation. It was the best dining experience we have ever had. We were honored that the Chef came out & spoke to us about the food. He re-assured us that each time we were there the service would be at the same standards, top notch. The security guard was so nice to escort us to our cab. We highly recommend the Red Rooster for a fabulous dining experience.

Food was outstanding and the atmosphere was wonderful!!!

Food was great service was a bit on the slower side
