- Been here twice now...the environment is very bright and cheery and clean and the food is good. I'm somewhat sensitive to soy, so more soy-free options would bring it up to an excellent for me. However, I will say the service is super friendly (okay, I'll admit, I was the one who dropped their sandwich immediately after getting it and they made me another right away free of charge and didn't laugh at me too hard!) and the baked goods - brownie and cupcake so far - were delicious. And, the coffee! So good I had a cup at 11PM and it may have been worth the bouncing of the walls that ensued. Also, I have to say thank you for vegan options in Flatiron! Will be back!!

- I am vegan and like the Pizza here. They used to have a great slice called the "Marinara" but they have changed the recipe and taken the oil out of the pizza dough. They have a new vegan cheese on a slice called "The Nomaggio" (that's right, vegan, sans casien). I am alittle concerned because for the past two days they have been closed. (No signs/notices) I wonder if it is for renovation or maybe a citation from DOH. I hope they reopen soon

- I'm re-reviewing this place with a heavy heart. I was so into them when they first opened, and for a while after that, but they've really dropped the ball in recent months.
The food is now often luke warm when it comes out, the tempeh and grilled veggie fillings have both been blah when I've gotten them in tacos, and the service has been atrocious! Like, crazy frazzled waitstaff and occasionally surly to boot!
I think they did themselves a disservice when they doubled their space and expanded their hours. It seems the kitchen just can't keep up in terms of quality.
I've heard the original older sold Papacito's to new management, which could explain things. If I lived right in the neighborhood I'd probably still swing by every now and again, but it's no longer worth the effort for me to go out of my way to eat here.

- I went here for the first time last night. I loved the juices - I had Lady in Red (carrot, beet, pineapple) which was excellent. Also had grilled cheese sandwich and a donut - both very good.
It's great that you can substitute rice milk for soy in the drinks, but it would be good to see more non-soy items on the menu (seitan please!). Agree with the other reviews that more seating would be good. Loved the friendly attitude of the staff.

- My boyfriend and I have already been there twice and tried four different sandwiches and YUMMERS!!! The Chicken Ranch number is amazing. The meatball sub made me drool...it needed more sauce but now I know for next time. The Chick Pea Tuna Melt was great also...needed something more but yummy anyhow. The other Buffulo Chicken was great too...messy but yummy! Now the Peanut Butter Chocolate shake thing was super chocolately and you can request for rice mild instead of soy. Cupcakes and Ginseng Lemonade is even more of a reason to go. I think I need to go again for something else! Hehe...try this place for a quick and uber filling meal!!! I think the down fall is the chairs though...I am a short gal and I almost fell a bunch of times. Super friendly staff that is open for suggestions.

- i though san francisco had one-uped us on sandwiches, but no longer!
after a long day of political marches i was stuck in midtown and starving - a dire situation for any vegan. i remembered seeing this and decided to stop by. small menu but everything sounds fantastic. brownies that were out and cooling looked killer but on the cold night i opted for a meatball sub that comes on a panini with marinara and daiya. it was phenomenal - the best vegan sandwich i've had that was not made by my own two hands. not to mention clean, bright environment, amazingly friendly staff. only complaint would be that i wish there was more seating because it was quite busy when i went in and i had to hover a bit. i would even go out of my way to stop by again. foodswings needs to make a trip by to learn how it is done. looking forward to trying out some of their other options in the future!

- Everything is amazing and delicious. Particularly the pineapple jerk tofu sandwich, which is cosmically good. The guys who run it are super nice too. A welcome, welcome addition to the empty zone of veg lunch joints in Chelsea. It's seriously revolutionized my life.

- Wow. I stopped by today after reading about this place on SuperVegan's front page. Wow! I tried the bacon cheddar chicken ranch sandwich and it was wonderful. It really put Foodswing's version of that to shame. Plenty of ranch, the daiya cheese is amazing, and the bacon and chicken were very tasty. The butterfinger smoothie was also incredibly delicious. This place is a very welcome addition to the neighborhood, I just wish they had more seating!
