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 this place during the height of the COVID pandemic, and I'm thrilled that it's back open again, even if it’s still take-out only. Located in the heart of downtown Nyack, it’s just a short walk to the beach, where you can sit at outdoor tables and enjoy your meal with a beautiful view.
Whenever I visit, I always opt for their hot bar items served in a bowl, which change daily and have been fantastic every single time. The pictures I’ve included show two generous bowls filled with hot bar items for just $15—you can’t beat that price for such incredible food. Their mock meats are packed with mouthwatering flavors and have a delightful texture. The vegetables are perfectly cooke...

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!
Vegetarian options: The barbecue and curry were both outstanding. As someone new to vegan cuisine, I was very satisfied and impressed. The food was perfectly seasoned. Rick was friendly and very knowledgeable about nutritional needs. Service: Takeout Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $30–50
They have been closed for renovations, and we check weekly to see if they've reopened. At this point, I'm starting to wonder if they ever will. I really miss some of the best and only authentic Caribbean vegetarian food in the Rockland area. Food: 5/5, Service: 5/5, Atmosphere: 5/5.
Vegetarian options: Excellent. Parking: Easy to find. Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is located on the first floor and is accessible for individuals with disabilities. Price range per person: $20–30.
