If you want to taste some authentic spicy indian food , this is not the place. But if you wanna look at some funny weird guy’s (sri chinmoy) pictures lifting ridiculous weights( not in kilos but tons😬) go for it.

The food was a little bland for my taste, as Im more used to spicy Indian food. But its not too say it wasnt good. They had a variety of dishes available. We started out with the mixed appetizer which was really good I then tried the veggie burger with fries.. My wife had palak paneer (spinich and Indian cheese). The mango lassi was oh so good. Id definitely go there again and try other stuff.

#vegan #samosa #dosa #veganveggiecurry #pappadam #darkbelgianchocolatecakeMy first time trying dosa and pappadam :) I like dosa more than pappadam, didn’t realize pappadam so crispy like chips πŸ˜†I was like what’s this flavor on pappadam so familiar?! The first moment I thought it’s rosemary then I realized it’s cumin :)Dipali means row of light πŸ’‘ thank you 😊 for letting me know people like you exist :) I see your cute πŸ₯° spirit :) you bring back a lot good memories I had in Oz thank you 😊

Awesome. Lovely atmosphere, yummy food. Low prices! An oasis of good vibes.Its really a nice family place. A great way to celebrate a birthday or significant event. If you let them know, the staff joins in to make it a really special time. And they care about your needs. If you have any dietary issues Ive watched them go out of their way to make the menu work.Its a soothing place to have some time alone and a fun place to share with others. Love it.

Service is nice, even though it is delicious the portions are so small so that you end up with hunger after eating the most highest pricest pick on the menu. This place is for tourist targeted obviously.

Amazing food!! The best we ever had in a restaurant.. The taste was so homemade and gave us immense satisfaction and content!!! Love it.. The place looks so beautiful.. Great for people who want to have vegetarian food in Jamaica.. We were dropping our family at JFK and were searching for a pure vegetarian Indian food.. and we hit a jackpot..

One of my favorite restaurants in the city, Annam Brahma offers an array of vegetarian Indian inspired cuisine, with freshness and quality in mind, at a reasonable price point. The atmosphere is very casual. and although the staff is pleasant, they arent overly concerned with overselling the experience. They also offer daily specials of vegetarian food from other cultures on varying days of the week, such as Italian day. Theyre vegan cocoa cake is absolutely incredible. Highly recommend!

For vegetarians and for seekers of fresh, healthy food this is restaurant is a gem. We had lunch here on a week day. The food was fresh (salad vegetables were as fresh as fresh can be), cooked right, accompanied with the right sides (the appetizers came with delectable chutneys) and the food was delicious. The service was courteous and efficient. Lots of choices for food and for drinks. Prices are very reasonable. We highly recommend this place.

The best of the best. This place looks so unique in its design while posing a calm and a relaxing atmosphere.Thats not the reasons why they take the cake. The food is always tasting like it was made by angels. So tasty and filling and even with the simplest dish.Its like they pray and chant special energy into the foods while cooking.Youll be pleased with how magical this place feels.Disney can take notes.

Let me start by saying. I’ve been going to this restaurant about 20 years. This was one of my first experiences eating vegetarian. From the first day I loved this place. The Dahl soup , Soy meatball hero, Neatloaf with mushroom gravy, all the salads and dressing are amazing. The ladies are so helpful and always smiling. If you’re looking for some good vegetarian food this is definitely the place don’t hesitate try

I have been dining at Annam Brahma for nearly 40 years. The food is always very fresh and perfectly prepared. Theyve maintained an admirable consistency over the years, thus never disappointing their customers.There are numerous vegetarian items on the menu as well as a variety of soups, salads, omelets and veggie burgers (which are pretty good). I recommend the Chapatti Roll-Up. Its delicious.The restaurant is dedicated to the late Sri Chimnoy. His philosophical influence can be observed throughout the restaurant.The staff is always very friendly and helpful and the pricing is reasonable. Parking can be difficult.I highly recommend Annam Brahma.

Awful! I should have been concerned when there were no Indian people working in the restaurant, instead white women dressed in Indian attire. Also when I called my order in, I asked for Cauliflower and potatoes I was told it there would be some chick peas in the dish. However when I got my dish there was absolutely no cauliflower or potatoes in the dish. Last, my nana was not made fresh but was warmed up instead. By the time I drove 15 mins home, it was hard a rock. They got me good:(

People need to understand that eggs do not contain chicken embryo. A chicken drop an egg every month like how girls get their period. These eggs are not fertilized. You are not killing a baby chicken by eating eggs
