Le Botaniste

Beautiful little spot with great food! I had the "spicy" chili sin carne (not very hot but lots of flavorful spices). I really enjoyed it, and the service was great. They let me sample the sauces and pick my favorite. Prices were fair, too.

Overall great experience! Wish they had seats with backs, but that's a minor thing. Really liked it, wish I lived here to come back!

DELICIOUS vegan food! Incredible selection and mouth watering chef creations! You must try their avocado slices that are covered in seeds, it’s SO GOOD! Definitely would recommend it, 10/10! Great for vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, allergy conscious, health conscious, delicious food! Even got some yummy fresh pressed juice with my meal!

This place is fast, casual, and delicious. Been here a couple times and I believe everything is reported to be 100% organic. This most recent visit I got the pasta bolognese, which was incredibly filling and comforting. Its not going to taste parallel to meat, but there is substance there and would appeal to those who are moving towards a plant focused eating lifestyle. The staff is always happy to answer any questions you may have.

Really good miso soup and curry. Great atmosphere, and so much space in the back!

One of my favorite vegetarian restaurants. I visit it every time I travel to NYC. My teen boys who like meat also love this place. Healthy and tasty food tasted like homemade, fresh ingredients and full of flavors. Tibetan Mama and Vegetable Tajine are our favorites. They have several locations in Manhattan.

Wow. I’m a carnivore was incredibly impressed with my first lunch bowl at Le Botaniste. The flavors were expertly crafted. Beautiful setting as well to enjoy lunch or even a casual dinner.

Walked into this place on a rainy Tuesday afternoon for lunch. I didn’t have many expectations, aside from maybe that they’d have plenty of vegan options. Once inside, I notice that the interior is very relaxed, light and casual, and it took little less than 5 minutes to order. We both got the Tibetan mama bowl with a cup o’ coffee, and they make it right in front of your eyes with fresh ingredients in quaint ceramic bowls. We took our trays to the covered and clean outdoor seating section, and ate by the busy road. I was wow’ed by the bowl! Delicious combination of flavors, including curry, brown rice, fresh veg and.. kimchi of all things - an interesting spicy fermented bite.. Not sure what kimchi has to do with Tibet, but I don’t care it was tasty. Once returning our trays, we noticed the line nearly went out the door - so better to get here for an earlier lunch rather than a later. Even so, the line should go relatively fast. Would definitely come back regularly for a quick, healthy bite to eat that leaves you feeling satisfied but not grossly full, and isn’t extraordinarily expensive.

Beautiful plant based eatery right on 3rd Ave next to Wells Fargo.. got the Tibetan Mama.. ie coconut curry bowl w/ brown rice.. veggies.. and spicy harissa sauce on top.. was flavorful and tasty! Nicely decorated interior.. ideal spot to hang out, maybe get some work done.. or spend time with friends. Cool option to add $3 to bill to plant a tree in Peru or Armenia

Love the food !! Been to different locations but the food standard is consistently amazing. Have tried Tibetan mama, chili, make your own version, sushi rolls and the veggie balls.

Recommend each of those items and their tonics !!

I have recently been diagnosed with a large number of food allergies which has made eating out virtually impossible. Today we discovered Le Botaniste; the staff member taking our order was extremely kind and helpful and knowledgeable. It was nice to have a sense of normalcy in this new world of mine. Thank you!!!

Absolutely love this place and it’s my favorite healthy option in the city for takeout and dining in their beautiful restaurant!

My only note if I could pass to their management: the portion sizes vary way too much (often way too small) and they could be more generous with the bowl sizes!

Wow wow wow! Been looking at this spot everyday for the past 4 months and wondering about it. Perhaps the cleanest amd healthiest restaurant in Murray hill. Beautifully decorated & super friendly and helpful staff. Everything, absolutely everything looks, smells & so far tastes delicious! Cannot wait to be back & try the rests of the meals and amazing desserts. Vegan heaven, never tasted better!

Finding a plant-based diet restaurant where the food is delicious can be tough. Le Botaniste was exactly what I ordered and the food was beyond my expectations. Great wine selection of you are a wine drinker. Beautiful atmosphere and great dining

I loved this place and so did my non vegan friends! They had a curry (tibetian bowl) and I can just recommend everything! It looks and tastes amazing! The price is too

Happy to find a healthy, budget-friendly option and with beautiful atmosphere and seating spots for lunch in midtown! Highly recommend and will be coming back!

Although I've only been a vegetarian for about a year, Le Botaniste stands out as one of the finest vegan restaurants I've had the pleasure of dining in so far. I was immediately charmed by the ambience and the friendliness of the staff. Though it was hard to decide to what to try, I ultimately decided on the Chili Sin Carne. It was wonderfully spiced and seasoned, and the portion size was more than ample.

Vegan tasty healthy food 🥘 bowls 🔝

Great Vegan Food! I went here during lunch while working with a co-worker. Its almost like going to a restaraunt, but super fast! The quality is amazing. Check it out!

Great spot for healthy food in the Midtown East area. My favorite is the Tibetan Mama bowl. It’s not cheap, but you get only good quality ingredients and a nice place to sit down and enjoy your food.

Delicious Vegan food! And I’m not even vegan.

I have visited as often as I could just to enjoy the flavor and the bonus heathy feeling after. The Pasta Bolo (a vegan bolognese) is an amazing start for any first time visits.

I can’t say enough just how much I genuinely enjoy their options. It’s a quick service style where you can use a reusable bowl or take out one of their compostable bowls.
