Reviews for Guevara's in Brooklyn, NY
This woman & trans owned cafe/plant shop/grocery store is 100% vegan with cute vibes. ???? Torta milanesa: crispy eggplant,... refried black beans, purple cabbage slaw, avocado, cherry peppers and guac - omg this is the best vegan sandwich I?ve had inNYC! Its loaded, every flavor is distinct and the bread is soft. Yes it?s messy but that?s why you eat at home when no one iswatching ???? I would love to try their breakfast torta next time. Definitely a cool spot worth checking out in the area. ???? Read more
I stopped in for a quick drink to ease the 90+ degrees outside. This place is a pink garden with a shop! I enjoyed a margarita... and a pink ???? pineapple in one cocktail while chatting with the staff about drag race and events in the city. Read more
Came here w/friends last night for the first time. Cool vibe and lovely people staffing this place. Great cocktails. I got the... guacamole w/plantain chips ($16). The serving size of the guacamole was maybe 4 tablespoons (no more than one small avocado). Ialmost sent it back thinking maybe they made a mistake. Plantain Chips were tasty. The Jalepeno popper had a good spicy sauce,albeit two bite sized portions ($14). I would not pay those kinds of prices for such small food portions again. You can buy agenerous meal for $30. This is a good spot for cocktails. Read more
I really liked this place. The decor was nice, there was cool merchandise & the food was really good! I would say, however, that... the place was not very hygienic. I could see the cooks touching their faces/mouth with their gloves when they were cooking.Leaning over the prep workspace and resting their heads on their gloves. Not a good practice when handling food. Read more
Really great place for brunch. Got the Frozen Saturn cocktail which was perfect on a hot day. Chilaquiles were flavorful and... yummy, and the breakfast torta is incredible. To top it all off, the guava and cheese empanada is outstanding! Will be back,everything was delicious and light. Read more
Second time there. It?s such a beautiful place! Love the plants and love the vibe. The staff is super friendly and everything it... nicely kept up. Got the torta Milanesa, BEC, and also a dish called ?plantain Picadillo? Would recommend going there forpastries, coffee drinks, the plants and ambience. But the food was lacking in flavor from the first time I went a few monthsago. The BEC and torta were okay. The most disappointing was the plantain dish, the plantain was hard and sooo over cooked thatit turned into rubber unable to eat really. yucca chips with the black bean spread was good but wasn?t worth the price. Overall3.5 stars Read more
Went to Guevara?s to try out their much praised vegan Torta Milanesa (Mexican sandwich) which is loaded with black beans, purple... cabbage, tomato, avocado, peppers and breaded eggplant. It definitely was a satisfying sandwich (not cheap though at $14 plustax & tip) but I found the bread to be a bit stale. It?s a great addition to the vegan cafe scene in Brooklyn and I?lldefinitely be back to try their sweet pastries (donuts, croissants) and empanadas. Also want to add that the decor of the shopis beautiful - in addition to food & coffee, you can buy plants and a few other things here. Great outdoor space during thewarmer months. Read more
Went for a late breakfast and this is one of the yummiest vegan places I have been to. The food is flavored so beautifully and... the blends of tastes are amazing. We ordered the picadillo y plátanos and the picadillo empanadas with mole mayo and hibiscustea, with a cinnamon roll for dessert and I highly recommend this place and the food. There are also many different types ofplaces to sit and eat. Very nice vibes! Read more
