Simply the best. I love this place so much. The staff is kind. The selection offers classic and inventive sandwiches that are always delicious! Their labor of love is the perfect cure for a hangover… or just a regular empty stomach.

The three special sandwiches I got from here were the blood moon, red riding hood, and cease her. All three exceeded my expectations on price, quality, size of sandwich, and taste. The veggies in the sandwich were fresh and balanced the seitan and each sandwich was unique/tasty in its own way. The blood moon was my favorite because it the unique components of the sandwich tasted so good together. Will be back to try other specials as well as their consistent sandwiches.

I've been going to Seitan's Helper probably since 2021/2022. They have consistently made fantastic sandwiches, and they are always so sweet every time I go. I do not live too close so I go when I can and have never had an unpleasant experience even once. I hope they will continue to do well and be able to expand their menu once again. The restaurant business is so hard and I've seen many great places close their doors over the years that eventually become a chain restaurant that is not nearly as good. Support this business. My non-vegan mom eats from there every time I pick up food.

This place is fantastic! We tried a little bit of everything. Ordered three different sandwiches and a wrap. Also ordered two sides and everything was excellent. It's been a long time since I had a good deli sandwich. Just go it's worth it!

Amazing sandwich shop! They make all their seitan by hand to use in unique sandwich combos. Everything is vegan and delicious! The Muffy is incredible and so filling. They have a great variety of breakfast sandwiches as well. Be sure to checkout their specials each day as they put together some great combos. You must stop here if you're in Bushwick!

I accidentally stumbled into this amazing all-vegan deli—and if I had known what a treat awaited me, I would’ve planned my whole trip around it. Incredible, handcrafted sandwiches made with top-quality vegan ingredients and served by an incredibly friendly staff.

The Triple Threat is one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had! The bread alone is amazing but then the mix of flavors from the seitan meats and extras was excellent!!

Seitan’s Helper is a phenomenal vegan deli! The Zombie Bride sandwich is quite possibly the tastiest vegan sandwich I’ve ever had. The combination of buffalo tofu, pickles, slaw, and avocado is absolutely perfect. Amanda’s customer service was also superb, making the entire experience even better. Highly recommend!

A must go!! Delicious food, kind staff, and clean and chill spot. Tried Sunday special: presto pesto and a classic: sexy devil with minor ingredient changes. Definitely would return. Go!!

This review was long overdue. I’ve been coming here for years even though I don’t live nearby. Seitan’s helper has the best vegan sandwiches in NYC. I travel to the city specifically for seitan’s helper, it is worth the two hour trip plus traffic. Everything on the menu is amazing. I recommend EVERYTHING! Every time I make the trip, I make sure to stock up. i usually get the triple threat which is one of my favorites. If you’re unsure what to get an If you’re unsure what to get i recommend building your own sandwich.All the seitan, breads , sauce's and etc are all made from scratch. You can tell a lot of love goes into what they do. Not only is their food amazing but so is their customer service. They are so welcoming and accommodating. I wanted to purchase something for my toddler daughter to eat so I asked if they had a kids menu. They don't have a kids menu but without hesitation made a grilled cheese just for my daughter. I would eat here everyday if I could.

Hands down the best vegan sandwich I had. I am visiting from Chicago, which still doesn’t have a huge variety of vegan restaurants yet, so food was everything in this trip!! This place was amazing. Sweet staff and amazing sandwiches. I wish it was open tomorrow, I would have gone back for more. Definitely will be back when I’m back in NYC

This place is one of the best in NYC. There are many combinations for vegan sandwiches and a rotating specials menu. The workers are super friendly and the food is delicious. Definitely recommend the spicy seitan turkey or seitan pepperoni sandwiches!!

So happy to finally have a vegan cafe near me! I love the cakes, focaccia is to die for, and the vegan croissants are perfect beyond words. I finally began trying all of the sandwiches offered and oh my god they are delicious as well! The go to is the italian type sandwich but all of them are worth a try! I'm still making my way down the menu. The cold brew is also delicious if you're curious about their coffee too. Give it a try! Definitely some of the best i've had in this area and my time in New York.

Absolutely delicious vegan pastries and sandwiches! The vegan croissant was delicious and so fluffy. I really want their recipe for getting that perfect rise. I also got a Hammy sandwich, which is a tofu scramble with seitan and it was delightful and delicious. It felt like such a luxury to eat. On the day we went, they sold out by 2:30pm on a Thursday. So if you’re making a trip here then be sure to plan for it accordingly and have a backup if needed! It might’ve been because they just came back from a break and so demand surged but we we’re definitely surprised to be getting the last croissant so early in the afternoon.
