What People Are Saying About Blossom Vegan Restaurant

Citysearch
This is one of the city's few upscale, all-vegan haute cuisine restaurants. The meatless, dairy-free menu focuses on seasonal ingredients and everything--including the beer and wine--is 100 percent organic. The eclectic offerings span a dizzying ethnic range of Indian, Mexican, Thai, and Italian flavors, including a burrito and "burger" for lunch and handmade pumpkin gnocchi, seitan cutlets and tofu fra diablo for dinner. Warm wood tones and spartan decor means the food takes center stage.
Hire a cook

Tofu Scramble...a greasy mash up.
I eat tofu all the time. I know how to cook.
You don't just chuck it all together in a pan
with oil and fry everything to death.
The salid (which was fresh) was covered in oil-based
dressing. The veggies in the tofu tasted off.
OK, thought I must have ordered the wrong thing.
So tried my buddies burger. You know, running
to a store and buying a frozen patty and throwing some
soy cheese on it is neither creative nor appealing.
The bun was store bought. Bland and tasteless.
Could be we had a bad day (place was empty)
Fries were good.
Music was bad.
I found my dish unedable and left without eating
more than a few fork fulls. I had not eaten since
yesterday. Cervantes says that hunger makes
a great sauce, but I preferred to go hungry.
- Pros: Yes, it is vegetarian
- Cons: They ruin food by cooking it badly
A late-'90s attitude.....
by michaelmusicnyc
Since I dine solo a lot, how I'm treated as a "table for one" is the real test of a restaurant for me. Blossom failed miserably. Quickly: I was ignored at the door after a couple ahead of me was cheerfully greeted and seated; though the restaurant was 3/4 empty, I was told there were no tables; an obnoxious greeter thought it would be more interesting to check his texts than answer a couple of questions. I used to encounter a lot of this in the late '90s; Blossom, unfortunately, still feels like that kind of cliche.
delicious vegetarian

I've been to blossom a couple of times for brunch. The food is excellent- i've even taken a skeptical non-vegetarian, and he was completely satisfied with his meal. Definitely more flavor than one would normally expect from a vegetarian restaurant.
