In the morning: love toast and breakfast tacos. At night: burrata with charred greens and spring salad with pickled salmon.

Caila QuinnJanuary 12, 2017Trendy hipster breakfast spot with great light ✨ The pancakes were delicious! Little too much peanut butter in the acai bowl, but still fresh. I'd come back
This is my favorite brunch place in New York--the food is fantastic and fresh. Their BLT blows my mind every time with a generous heaping of bacon. Always get a seasonal salad
Diego 🇨🇴 PulidoJuly 2, 2022Great place —however: beware of ordering “the juice of the day”. This SHOT GLASS of a juice is $7. I never leave tips here, but THIS I had to share. Absolute none sense.

carob açai bowl and breakfast sammie = perfect start to the day. try the iced tea latte too!
Healthy and delicious California style food. You can't go wrong with the egg sandwich or one o their breakfast bowls. Long lines so be prepared to wait or come early.
mango pitaya bowl or any other acai bowl is yummy. matcha rolls are divine. great vibes and nice atmosphere. no reservations, so come willing to wait a bit.
New York PostSeptember 14, 2014Charming Chinatown eatery serves healthy breakfast fare like $9 açai bowls with bee pollen and hemp until 4 p.m. Look for their homemade, Opening Ceremony-approved beauty products on-site. Read more
Tiger BeerSeptember 14, 2016Treat yourself to a $3 Tiger Beer at Dimes as you explore the LES' 100 GATES Project, an open-art exhibition comprised of 100 street murals painted by notable artists on exterior gates. Read more
Get the breakfast with 2 eggs any style. All the ingredients are simple but so fresh and perfect. Great fresh juices and kale salad. Good acai bowls too.
Ivona HrnciarovaMay 13, 2018Colorful space and healthy bowls (black beans + rice, kale, avocado, pumpkin seeds, alfa alfa sprouts and spicy salsa verde 🖤)
Hippest healthy spot in Chinatown founded by two girls. The food is tasty, and they make their own hot sauce which you can buy at Dimes market across the street. However, their coffee sucks!
- Simran JaisingDecember 10, 2014LA style cuisine in NYC. And sometime the girl from ugly Betty hangs here. Harissa salmon is on point. You can't go wrong with anything.
Max KesslerAugust 21, 2014Perfect brunch. Split the Acai berry bowl with granola, banana and strawberries. Also had the Croissant egg sandwich. The homemade hot sauce should have a special name - maybe gods sauce?!
PaulaDecember 14, 2015So good! The kedgeree, the fall hash and the milk river drink are so tasty! You wont be disappointed. Oh and prepare yourself to wait, always packed w people but worth it!- Ashley MowreyJuly 26, 2017Amazing. The food here is just amazing. Good portions with good prices. The wIne selection is small and even smaller if you just want it by the glass.
JeffreyJuly 20, 2014Dimes is an actual restaurant in juice-bar guise with fresh, vibrant, not entirely vegetarian food, from a summer salad with blackberries, cantaloupe, and feta. Packed at brunch. Mellow at dinner.
Ashley ChanNovember 27, 2016The acai bowls here are pretty solid. The best part is the granola. I really like the coffee shop branch of Dimes because it serves food all day and is more peaceful.
Healthy food in the LES/Chinatown area....awesome new spot! Add the chicken to the big salad! It was delicious!!! The barley salad was perfect! The juice flavors were great!!
Michael OrellOctober 27, 2013The amazing breakfast more than makes up for the squirrelly and skittish demeanor of the staff. Frail and cautious, but cool yo. Acai, juice. Leave your luggage at home.- Ni MuSeptember 11, 2014The blueberry lavender acai bowl is achingly delicious. Also really beautiful.
Kim PhamMay 22, 2016Simple, cosy little spot with tons of healthy options. The breakfast sandwich is 👌🏽
MarcJanuary 4, 2016TimeOut Top Chinatown Rest: SoCal-inspired cafe, the lineup can change weekly. Expect colorful plates with equal parts Japanese, South American and Mediterranean influences.
Christina ChinSeptember 10, 2015Cute date spot, limited menu but fresh seasonal dishes. Got pulled pork, was delish. Their lemonades are carbonated
refinery29August 3, 2014Jump from Japan to Greece on the menu, with dishes such as a scrambled egg sandwich with avocado and pickled cherry peppers. Read more
Jeff SavageOctober 14, 2016yum yum yum and healthy! so much better since they moved to the new location. most of the menu is seasonal so keep coming back 💁🏽♂️
Angeline BryantFebruary 3, 2017Dos tacos 🌮 loved there scrambled eggs. I think the way they steel tea is cute too
Rick NijhuisOctober 2, 2015Trendy new spot in Chinatown. Acai bowl was good but the spicy BLT with jalapeños was the highlight!
Kimmie OhhAugust 14, 2020Get the carob açaí bowl for breakfast. It has banana, dates, cinnamon coconut milk, almond butter, hemp & walnut granola.- If you're here for dinner and want something on the heartier side, the chicken is a very solid choice. I'd recommend going elsewhere for dessert though—or at least avoiding the cheesecake.
Tracy SpetkaMarch 27, 2017A favorite breakfast sandwich and acai bowl, as long as you're early enough to avoid the crowds.
- Kimmie OhhAugust 14, 2020Get the bar steak for dinner! It’s grassfed flank steak with Meyer lemon salsa, wasabi avocado tamari fingerlings & mustard greens.
Kathy MatthiesenDecember 29, 2017Brunch food that doesn't make you feel awful! Great for your veggie or health conscious friends. Menu also includes good coffee and cocktails
Tyler ElliottJanuary 9, 2014The breakfast sandwich with eggs, avocado, house-made hot sauce, and pickled red pepper is incredible.
A great breakfast spot with delicious food and nice atmosphere. Beware: the spicy peppers on the breakfast sandwich will melt your face off.
Miju CFebruary 11, 2016My blueberry, lavender, and banana açai bowl was soooo bland. I had to request a side of fruit to add some sweetness, but it never arrived before I was handed the check! Please don't get it
- Ranu RajkarnikarApril 1, 2015Black rice bowl was tasty and filling, with kale gomae, eggplant and jicama. Tiny place but fast friendly service.!
Dan SwensonFebruary 22, 2015The people suck and the wait can be long, but man is the brunch awesome. Huge tasty breakfast sandwich and great acai bowls.
Super different and delicious tastes. Really interesting, clean interior design + cool ceramics.
SparkieAugust 29, 2014California-style spot. Options range from acai bowls to a "killer breakfast sandwich," with scrambled eggs, cheddar, and pickled jalapenos.
HolidayJanuary 7, 2016Good healthy food but in a terrible space, cramped, minuscule cafe with no heating in January! Find a new roomy space to move into please, crowdsource - I'll contribute!
Tessa DomzalskiNovember 24, 2015Best thing about this place is the aesthetic. The food is average but beautiful. I did enjoy the tahini love toast, but it needed more honey. Chia pudding was okay. Atrocious service.
Jen KatanMarch 28, 2016I had a ridiculously healthy beetroot mimosa with a carob-salmon-wrap. A place you would eat at every day if you could
