I got a raw food collard green wrap, and a cold-pressed unpasteurized green juice. I also later got multiple e3 live algae shot and purchased a raw cacao raw chocolate bar from my friends at Fine & Raw Chocolate.

I love this place. The design is so clean, the food is good, the marketing is clear (LOVE), the product is high quality, and the staff are so friendly and helpful.

Green juice is all over New York City, and Organic Avenue is a winner when it comes to serving the “Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability” (LOHAS) market.
