I've been a regular at Main Essentials for years, and after stopping by again recently, I finally decided to write a review. This place has consistently been outstanding in every aspect: the owners and staff are some of the friendliest and kindest people you'll ever meet, and the food is absolutely divine. It's one of the few places in Rockland where you can enjoy truly delicious, flavor-packed, home-cooked, and affordable all-vegan meals. I really missed it during the height of COVID and am thrilled they're back open (though still offering take-out only).

I visited this vegan restaurant on a rainy day since it was the closest option to the highway, and I was pleasantly surprised! The food is perfectly seasoned, and the seitan is incredibly juicy. I’m usually sensitive to spicy foods, but I had no issues here. I will definitely return to this place and highly recommend the rib empanada!

This restaurant is amazing! The vegan Caribbean food is the best I've ever tasted, far exceeding anything else in the city. The staff is consistently friendly, and the place is impeccably clean.
I truly adore this restaurant! The food is not only tasty but also healthy. The staff is amazing, and you definitely need to try the fresh natural juices and the empanadas!

The food was amazing, the prices were great, and the atmosphere was fantastic. It's definitely a place worth checking out!
We regularly make the drive from Midtown Manhattan just for the vegan beef patties and Dominican/Caribbean cuisine.
