GO HERE - Edit
This restaurant is exactly what you pray it is - amazing French vegan food. Honestly, it was so hard to pick what to get. The waiter suggested Escargot and Coq Au Vin. Of course, he said he could only one favorite. It has been so long since I had proper French food. I could have cried. Come here!! 🥹❤️

Amazing French vegan - Edit
I have been so many times that I’ve tried almost everything on the menu. Best vegan cheese I’ve ever had, flavorful dishes, and have gotten to try French cuisine I never would have been able to otherwise. My favorites so far have been the escargot, brie fondant, duck, and steak tartare.

A vegan novelty dream come true - Edit
The French onion soup and creme brûlée were awesome. The crepes aren’t anything special though. Seems like some items are a lot better than others.

Disappointing but my friend loves it - Edit
Not sure if it’s my personal preference, but I just hated everything here. Besides the AMAZING escargot. Besides that, all the fake meat was terrible to me. My friend is obsessed with it and it’s her fav place in nyc. It’s preference I guess!

consistently good - Edit
i have eaten here several times. it's a reliable place, and i love taking non-vegan friends who are still on the "vegan = brown rice, tofu, and leaves; i'm gonna hate it" bandwagon. anyway, the crepes are always delicious and use really creative and fresh ingredients. i do not leave hungry. however, the place is SMALL! i do not love coming in wintertime because where does the sleepingbag coat go? also, service is so slow. i could have a birthday before i see the cheque...AND the yummy crepe is often congealed by the time it gets to the table. sacre bleu!

Cozy space and yummy French food - Edit
We ate there last night for a birthday dinner. An omnivore with us enjoyed the French onion soup as a starter and dove into the chicken coq au Vin. I had the escargot starter followed by the scallops, both of which were delicious. We shared a bottle of the vegan Bordeaux, which oddly was served in a carafe and not the bottle. It’s a very small place and rather loud as a result, but we had a great time.

Rich Tasting Vegan French Cuisine - Edit
🌱This place is a true vegan gem in the West Village of NYC. It is a quaint and cozy French restaurant that serves veganized versions of traditional French cuisine. They have everything on the menu from escargot made of oyster mushrooms, foie gras, brie made out of macadamia nuts, steak tartare, French onion soup, crepes, etc.
Read moreThe food is all rich and delicious. It's a truly unique vegan dining experience. The French onion soup was covered in a thick layer of vegan cheese and loaded with rich onions. The foie gras was good, but not spectacular. It came with fig jam and some bread. The steak tartare was served cold as it is supposed to be, along with some fries. The tartare had the rich flavor of truffles and was very delicious. The fries were thick cut, and I'd like to know if they are made in house or not. They could have used some mayo or other sauce for dipping, which was not provided. The savory crepe was huge and packed with delicious fillings. The consistency of the crepe was a bit thicker and softer than usual, but still very good. The dessert crepe was a nice treat, with vanilla ice cream, salted caramel, and baked apples. The coffee was good, but I think they used sweetened oatmilk in my latté which made the drink taste like it had sugar in it. It was a great dinner, but they should work on perfecting the finer details of the food.
Overall, this place is a great vegan dining experience and I will definitely be returning. Their menu is so extensive and I look forward to trying more of their offerings.🌱
Pros: Authentic style French food, Quaint Atmosphere, Interesting and extensive menu
Cons: Pricy

Better than the originals - Edit
Delicious French food reimagined as fully plant-based - the chef has achieved something remarkable here. The escargot and tartare were out of this world. As a vegan I never expected to be able to eat French food again. Wish I lived closer but I can’t wait to come back!

Hard to find vegan French food - Edit
Feels almost like being in an intimate Paris bistro except there's not as as much tasty vegan food there. Traditional French favorites reimagined vegan.

Great Crêpes - Edit
Delice and Sarrasin was so yummy. We got a sweet pear crepe as well as a Savory one. All vegan and a huge menu. Plus the French waiter was very handsome and had a cute accent.

Excited !! - Edit
Hi there,
Read moreMy name is Chris, I am the owner of D&S.
This is a family business, my mom Yvette Caron is your chef, and we are so excited to start offering vegan french dishes.
For those that traveled to France, you probably know how complicated and almost impossible to find vegan food... everything is egg or cream based...
We worked for 14 month, trying to recreate traditional french dishes, it took a lot of time and efforts but we are finally ready!
If you wondered what a boeuf bourguignon, a foie gras or coq au vin tastes like, now you can find it here!
We are very happy to finally make that big step, for us (vegan) and for the animals, the planet and the future...
Stop by, and let us know what you think. And hopefully, we cross fingers that you like it and will come back!

Delicious French Cuisine - Edit
It’s a fairly small space in a cool neighbourhood (seats about 22 tightly). And, oh the food!!!! I just had a main today since I foolishly had a late lunch but will certainly never make that mistake again. The ‘duck’ (seitan) with peas and carrots was absolutely delicious! All the plates around me looked equally delectable and I could only hear expressions of delight. The service was friendly and speedy.

Squeezed in! - Edit
Cheese board starter was one of the BEST things we had since arriving in NY. We had not booked (a Monday) but they squeezed us in, if we could eat fast, and we can! Menu a bit confusing to read titles in French which are fancy meat dishes. We had steak and a club sandwich for mains.

Nowhere else does this vegan menu! - Edit
There are some things that you can't easily find in vegan restaurants, and French cuisine is one of them. Delice & Sarrasin fills that void with creative and sometimes complex takes on these famed dishes.
Read moreThe highlight of our visit was the macademia nut brie. I have never tasted such an accurate recreation of cheese from taste to texture since going vegan! It was not only delicious but the potatoes and bread served with it were a great pairing for the cheese's flavour.
I had the duck confit and found the seitan slightly too tough, but overall it was pleasant.
Pros: Unique menu, Stellar fake cheese, Excellent atmosphere
Cons: Expensive

Wonderful place - Edit
Very French. Delicious food. Not-beef bourguinon excellent, veggie stew excellent, onion soup excellent, creme brulee as good as a non-dairy pudding could be (practically licked the bowl). Good Riesling. Place is very small and was full on a Thursday at 7:30 pm.

Pros: Excellent food, Nice ambiance
Cons: Maybe a bit salty, but certainly edible anyway.

Vegan French? Mais, oui!!! - Edit
Celebrated my birthday—and Bastille Day!—at the delicious and charming Délice & Sarrasin. I never thought I would find what seemed like an oxymoron—a French vegan restaurant—or that it would be so “formidable!” Biggest hits of our meal were the melt-in-your-mouth vegan Brie en croute, the boeuf Bourguignon, the Coq au vin and the sumptuous dessert crêpes: in a word, “YUM!” Our host was warm and helpful, suggesting dishes and giving us the history of how the restaurant came to be. This little restaurant packs in great flavor and is a real find. If you want authentic French cuisine that has been transformed into a vegan extravaganza, look no further than Délice & Sarrasin.

Fabulous Brie Fondant - Edit
This little French restaurant would be quite easy to miss, but is well worth a visit (or two)! Their cheeses are out of this world, particularly the Brie Fondant! The “poulet” casserole was delicious, and the crepe’s really light. The atmosphere is very cosy, and service very attentive. Will be back!
Read morePros: An amazing array of vegan cheeses, Cosy atmosphere , Great French-style cuisine
