About Urban Vegan Roots

Urban Vegan Roots is the newest 100 percent plant based restaurant located on 31st in Astoria Queens . From the team that brought you Urban Vegan Kitchen and led by up and coming chef, James "Jimmy" Bardsley, the gorgeous space brings something new and refreshing to the borough. Their unique mix of savory seitan and veggie forward dishes will have every palette satisfied without leaving you with that feeling of missing out. More than just a restaurant, UVR is a cultural hub where entrepreneurs can rub elbows with artists and musicians alike. Creating a unique and true New York City vibe while offering a glimpse into the often misunderstood and misused culture of veganism, the restaurant offers a holistic approach to dining and a safe space for non vegans to experience plant based cuisine without feeling judged.
