Deserving of their stellar reputation - Edit
There's a good reason that vegans smile when you mention Good Karma. The food is fabulous.

My favorite vegan spot! - Edit
Amazing food. Have never had anything from here and have been disappointed. I even do the takeout a lot and it still tastes just as good as eating in. The only sad part is that it’s so small inside good karma itself and sometimes has a long wait but it is always worth it to me. Would highly recommend this place. to anyone.

First time in area, from Flemington. Had the tempeh Reuben, messy deliciousness. Kind staff. Wish I was closer.

The Best - Edit
The cheesesteak and the buffalo wrap are my two favorites. They also do great specials all the time. And the peanut butter brownies are amazing. Highly recommend.

One of my favorites - Edit
They do some dishes better than others, but what they do well they do really well. My favorites are the Buffalo Soldier Wrap & the Indian Plate. Chimichuri seitan skewers is also good and Hawaii five-O smoothie is a favorite.
Pros: Good food, Generous portions , fairly priced
Cons: some dishes are duds, teeny tiny inside

Catering is excellent - Edit
A large group of vegans enjoyed an excellent Thanksgiving meal at Skylands Sanctuary, Wantage Twp., NJ catered by Good Karma Cafe. Highly recommended.

Great food and atmosphere! - Edit
I absolutely love the food, ciders, staff and atmosphere here. Yes, it can be a little snug, but I've always been able to find seating.
I noticed one review that said the menu is too big and not focused on perfecting a few dishes. I strongly disagree. I've tried everything on the menu, and each dish is clearly well thought out and prepared amazingly. A smaller menu would feel limiting.

killer vegan grub - Edit
Good Karma is just the best around. I've been a customer for years at this point. It's just a shame that they don't have a bigger venue. The tight, cramped atmosphere can be offputting, but delicious vegan food can go a long way toward making up for any inconvenience. Their take-out business is booming. i'm there picking up dinner every Saturday night!

Absolutely Fantastic! - Edit
I took my family for a nice breakfast and we were very pleased with our meal. I recommend this place. The Belgian Waffles were incredible.

Meh - Edit
Ideas are good, but the product just doesn't deliver. Menu is too big, imo they should make it smaller & focus on making those dishes stars.

AMAZING FOOD - Edit
Ive been to a handful of vegan restaurants since becoming vegan, and I have to tell you, this one beats em all by a long shot. I've tried 3 different entrées as well as 2 appetizers and the cheesecake for dessert. It was all flawless, the kind of food you scrape the bottom of your plate for to ensure you've devoured every last bit of flavor and crumb.
I Highly recommend this joint, and will definitely return again. Happy Cow Approved :)

deceptively good - Edit
Definitely the old timer amongst the surrounding areas vegan restaurants. Not as trendy or fancy but BY FAR the tastiest vegan fare around ❤️❤️❤️
Pros: flavorful food, extensive menu, gluten free options
Cons: small, tight space , servers can be grouchy

Beat Seitan in NJ - Edit
A tiny cafe that offers a large and broad menu meeting the needs of all types of vegans. Mostly a sandwich and salad stop, it has worldly number of different types of choices.
The setian bowl is my favorite, but they run daily specials all the time. A bit pricey, but the food is great. The sandwiches suffer from way too much bread and too little in between.
One of, if not the best vegan cafe in NJ.
Pros: numerous types of choices, great taste, daily specials
Cons: desserts are forgettable , cookies and snacks are on the old/dry side, very limited seating

Nirvana Near the Navesink - Edit
I've eaten here for years. It is one of the best vegetarian/vegan/deli restaurants in New Jersey, The quality of the food is excellent. The menu offers lots of items (including gluten free and raw). They offer some impressive desserts. There are also a bunch of different baked items for sale. The staff is always friendly and it is located right near the center of town.
Pros: Food quality, menu breadth, very clean, cool bathr
Cons: moderately priced

wow! - Edit
Ordered the buffalo tempeh wings and they were spicy and delicious. A little on the salty side, but once dipping them in the vegan ranch sauce it goes away ;)
Would definitely return to try other items on the list.

the best - Edit
Vegan crack. But high-quality crack. Gotta check out the Crunch Wrap breakfast burrito. Everything here is phenomenal, and because it's crack we keep coming back. Addicted.
Delila is the best waitress!

Tacos?!?!?!?!??!!!??!!! - Edit
Pros:
-the juice & twinkies were great
Cons:
-the tacos*** Were slices of mildly warm tofu on cabbage. Did not look like a slight resemblance of a taco.
-the lasagna has something sour/pungent inside and was therefore inedible. When I told them this they replied "have you had it before?"
-the buffalo tenders were almost ok, if they weren't cold.
-they forgot to give me my soup & Twinkie.
-they did not offer utensils or napkins.

Awesome food! - Edit
My friend and I are not from this area but we decided to stop by to grab some lunch since we were nearby. This was our first time at Good Karma and it definitely exceeded our expectations. We shared a slice of their krusty krab pizza and it was amazing! She ordered a southwestern bowl and I had the kimchee bowl and they were both delicious. We will definitely be making the 1 hr and a half trip again to try some more items off the menu.

Favorite Vegan place in New Jersey - Edit
This is by far my favorite place in New Jersey for vegan food! So far everything I have gotten from there has been amazing. I've stopped by for some shakes too after a workout at the local crossfit gym, and it was glorious! I've tried a few of the baked goods, awesome, some of the unbaked goods, awesome. I've also tried their raw and baked entrees. Perfect!
Only downside is that everyone knows this place rocks, so it can get crowded fast and super busy. So I would recommend coming during off hours or ordering for pick up. Maybe one day they will move to a bigger location.
Pros: Excellent Food
Cons: Super small, very popular/busy

Cons: small dining area, very busy whenever i am there

Great - Edit
The food was great especially the black bean soup. I had the Vegan lasagna and it was light and loved the cream they used in it, as well as the Parmesan crisps. The live lemonade was amazing. Great place for vegan food.
