Dishes range from BBQ seitan enchiladas, to rosemary tofu skewers, to rice tempura tofu cakes.
We are a progressive establishment committed to living in harmony with the planet. One important aspect of this commitment is to raise consciousness relating to the hemp plant. Industrial hemp is a highly nutritious food and a practical source of fiber, paper pulp, board and cloth.

Galaxy Global Eatery is a cool veg-friendly joint in Union Square with an eye on the planet... the food is creative and yummy. I enjoyed the ceasar salad, the yucca fries, and the hempnut veggie burger.
I was very impressed with this place. This place serves meat, but they had so many more interesting vegan dishes than I've seen at most veg restaurants!
We started with the yuca fries (pretty good, but could have been cut thinner and cooked longer) and the red quinoa coated soy drumsticks (the quinoa coating was pretty tough, but it was a worthwhile shot).
For an entree, I had the vegan Caeser Salad (and I am NOT a salad person) and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It had avocado, vegan hemp caseser dressing, lotus crostini, caper blossoms, and cornmeal crusted tofu. Delish! I sampled my friend's rosemary tofu skewers with grilled papaya and it was amazing. The skewers were actual rosemary twigs and the flavor was completely infused in the tofu.
