I purchased a groupon for Kaya's Kitchen because I have heard a lot about it. I am not sure what all the talk is for...I was not impressed. I went with 3 other people and no one enjoyed it. I thought the chicken nuggets were stringy, but the barbecue sauce was tasty. The gluten steak was tough to chew. The... More

My boyfriend always tried to get me to go to this place. When I saw words like tofu and gluten I immediately ruled it out. One day I finally agreed to go. And that was a life changing day! Kaya's is now my absolute favorite restaurant and I frequent it often. Despite high prices and bad service (which has improved... More

Kaya's has a great selection of appetizers and entrees. The portions are plentiful and the prices are quite reasonable. You don't have to be a vegetarian to enjoy their tasty choices. The servers are friendly and helpful. In the summer, they sometimes have entertainment which adds to the overall experience. Kaya's is a great place to go for out-of-the-ordinary food.

Nice little place- byo- good food, and really decent prices. The entrees appear all made to order, and were very flavorful. The service was excellent. Unique menu, many options to choose from

First, the address changed. It's now 1000 Main St. Belmar A friend and I went last Sunday after the snow storm. On Sundays they only have a buffet, which is great. You could taste everything and see if you like it. Food was a little spicey for me, but it was very tasty. You weren't really sure that it wasn't... More

The food is very good at Kaya's Kitchen. My only complaint is that the service can be slow and the dining area is not that clean.

Kaya's Kitchen in Belmar, New Jersey was recommended to me by my sister and other vegan friends. When I first gave this restaurant a try, I absolutely loved it so much that I ended up returning the following day for lunch and brought my mom there. Their vegan nachos are absolutely delicious and they are served with guacamole, tomato salsa,... More

You get a lot of food for your money. I got mashed potatoes with garlic butter, Mac and cheese, and veggie protein drumsticks and it was all good (and vegan :) ). My fiancé got a cheesesteak and he really enjoyed it. You would never know the drumsticks were vegan. They were amazing. I really loved the mashed potatoes too.... More

I really, really wanted to like Kaya's more than we did. My husband and I had stopped by a couple years ago on a Sunday and the buffet looked sparse and not appetizing so we didn't go back. But, it was time to try again. We went on a Friday night and the place was packed. My husband and I... More
