Amazing on all counts. No matter your cuisine preferences, you shouldn’t miss this restaurant in Manhattan on the Upper East Side. You’ll have a very serene feel with Buddhist vibe, and the best food of ever, with a wide variety. Highly recommend Candle 79.

I had an amazing gluten-free vegan dinner. Everything was excellent, but I can never go back and not order the Wild Mushroom Crepe. I highly recommend this restaurant & the crepe is a must. Oh. So. Good.
