Ahimsa Garden is leaving the East Village

Ahimsa Garden is leaving the East Village for Midtown East. 

Signs up at the Indian restaurant that serves vegetarian food at 265 E. 10th St. between Avenue A and First Avenue shows an upcoming move to East 38th Street. Per the sign: "Thank you for all your support. We are blessed with such an awesome community."

AG, an offshoot of the Thompson Street location at the time, opened here in August 2017.

  1. Best of luck Ahimsa. We enjoyed your excellent dosa, baigan bartha, that cauliflower appetizer and other fare, and your kind service.

  2. I feel like Kava Sutra and their clientele are driving potential customers away from surrounding businesses.

  3. The clientele of Kavasutra are an interesting lot. Near continuous double-parking leads to trucks blaring their horns for long periods.

  4. Oh no!

    Do we have a date this will happen? Or has it already happened?

  6. Re 11:25 and 4:58, agreed. I live right above Kava, and can attest to the negative impact that that bar has brought to my block. Sigh. It’s not hard for me to imagine why ahimsa garden is moving.
    These (among others) led me to my decision to move, and I’m so heartbroken because I will miss my home.
