Dig Inn on 4th

I didn't like this location. Tables were filthy and the guy making my food gave me very small portions. He took out one chicken breast and cut it into half then into thin slices. Never again. Both of the gentlemen at the front seemed tired of working there. Mean, short and uninterested in the customers.

Order delivery from this place. The delivery guy was nice, but the food I give two stars. Everything is really salty, especially the herb rice. It tastes like some medication. Advertising as healthy food, then you shouldn’t put tons of salt in it. Besides of that, I didn’t get my yogurt. Will not order again.

Great place for a quick bite if you are around the Union square area. Line moves fast and it literally takes less than 5 minutes from the time you entered the restaurant to the time you are already eating. We tried the fried chicken on faro with carrots and cauliflower as sides and it was pretty good. And here is the best part - one of the employees shared his recommendation for the sauce: mix aioli and sriracha ( employees call it srioili). You will thank me later after trying this sauce combo.

First time here and love this cute, small and quick place to eat. Prices are in my opinion really good, except for the orange juice…. Chicken is delicious and avocado is perfect. Will have to come back! Maybe not to this location bc it’s far but for sure another one.

One of the workers was so rude I was shocked by the way she was speaking to people (on shift Sunday 6/15 at 3pm). I love the food here and the restaurant is clean. However, this one server spoke to me in a way not even my friends or family address me, let alone a stranger and was honestly I bit taken aback. I will not be returning to this location

Staff are always so friendly and chill here! Always makes me excited to walk in there, knowing I’ll be greeted like an old friend. As a vegan, this place is great to find a quick and nutritionally-dense meal that fills you up. Lots of yummy options to build a bowl. The tofu is a little too oily, but it’s tasty—the sriracha sauce helps cut through it. Bonus, I can pay with my student dining dollars as a broke college student. But yeah, the pricing is a little high, and depending on who’s serving you, you might get a lighter hand so it feels like you’re not getting your money’s worth. The layout of this store is a little confusing—there isn’t a menu in the front, you have to walk to the side, so I think it’s confusing for newcomers.

Ordered for a business meeting. Food (various bowls) was great, fast service and delivery. I will definitely eat again in DIG(s) for quality food.

Stopped by just to grab a dessert from them. They had something not on the menu which was carrot cake. As a chained, health place, their carrot cake was delicious than a lot of other brands. Not too heavy but sweet enough for you need. I would recommend for people who are around, have no dessert idea but want one quick.

Dig Inn exceeded all expectations with both its service and the quality of the food. From the moment I walked in, the staff was incredibly friendly and engaged, making the whole experience enjoyable. They took the time to explain the menu and offer suggestions, ensuring I got the perfect combination for my bowl. The atmosphere was casual & welcoming, relaxing and savory which almost sounds ridiculous for me to say given the casual nature of the place. Lol. The food was awesome even compared to other spots around the city. The crispy tofu was perfectly seasoned and had just the right amount of crunch, while the mac & cheese was creamy and comforting. The farro salad added a refreshing, earthy balance to the dish, and the fresh ingredients really made the flavors pop. Every bite was packed with taste and texture, making Dig Inn a standout in the world of fresh, fast-casual dining.

This DIG location is amazing! The service is great. The employees are very willing to help and clarify any questions you may have. This location has seating inside, and it's usually not too hard to get a spot. It's in a convenient location as well! Lastly, I got the Classic DIG and loved it! The charred broccoli with lemon always hits the spot! Overall, I highly recommend it if you haven't tried DIG!

I like this location because of the interior layout. Nice open window view of 4th Ave. I ordered the glazed tofu, Brussel sprout, sweet potato, kale salad as a base (+$1.99), focaccia bread($3) and carrot cake. The staff were nice and social, however the Brussel sprout side dish was too salty. Needs to have a proper salt management. Tofu was over cooked or under the heat lamp too long however everything was still tasty. The focaccia was greatly oiled with herbs visible and slightly taste it. I have yet to eat the carrot cake, update later. There is a water closet available in the back of dining hall. If you're wanting something wholesome and quick in union square area, dig inn! Now knows as dig.

Dig on 4th is always a hit Good quality food Decent portions Nice staff Not crazy expensive Ambiance is ok for what it is I don't know if it would make it for a first date night, but it's not terrible :)

Ordered for lunch on a weekday through DoorDash for pick-up. Waited a few minutes even though the app said the food was ready but I didn't mind since I saw them making the chicken fresh. Got the custom with protein (charred chicken, brown rice, brussels sprout, avocado, sweet potato side with balsamic dressing and hot honey sauce). Overall very filling, however the brussels sprout and chicken were a little salty so the sauces really helped balance that out. I was surprised avocado was a free topping usually there is an extra charge. Price-wise it isn't cheap, $22 for this one meal, definitely can't be having this everyday!

I'm of the healthy lunch eating set who got into the habit of eating a convenient lunch at Dig Inn back when I went into the office for work. This habit started over a decade ago, and I actually thought the food at Dig Inn got better and better over the years, with a crescendo at their fine dining sit down concept, 232 Bleecker, which I think is fantastic. DIG on 4th marketed themselves as a happy medium between the casual quick serve outposts and their fine dining restaurant with this full- service restaurant. What I found was a slightly dressed up version of regular quick-serve DIG locations, except the food is served on real plates instead of disposable bowls. Dig on 4th is akin to Westville, with fewer options and smaller portions. If you read any of the press or the description on Dig on 4th's own website, you'll see the copy writer was working on overdrive. "Dig on 4th represents Dig's expansion into a third place- a public space that acts like an intimate one. We've designed the space to make it feel like you're going home." It doesn't look like any home I've ever been to, it looks like a lunch counter. You pay at the register, grab a table flag, and they bring out your dishes to your table. You then bus your own tables, so calling it a full service restaurant feels like a misnomer. Everything about the food and experience felt almost identical to their more casual concepts, which also serve wine and beer, so you can't even say that's the key difference. This menu has sandwiches, with regular Digs don't have, but that's about it. Roasted veggies and a substantive protein is a formula I can get behind, but I think they could've done without the flowery overtures and claims that this is anything different than what they had previously here.

I love the concept of this fast casual place which appears to be a mini-chain in NYC. I actually gave it a try because I happened to hear someone talking about it on a food podcast prior to my most recent visit. I was craving some simple, healthy food amid a trip full of bagels, pizza and Ukrainian pierogi. Other than what I heard on the podcast and one Eater article from 2019 about their name being shortened from Dig Inn to just Dig (a good branding choice since the store is modern, not down homey), there wasn't much info about them. Their menu had what I was looking for though so I placed an order online for pickup. I really like the ability to engineer your meal on their online menu. I chose a bowl with half farro, half greens, salmon, roasted carrots and broccoli . I choose the garlic aioli and a wedge of lemon as my yep condiments. The spouse got a combo crispy chicken sandwich and roasted carrots. We picked up at their clean, modern place on 4th Ave and the food was promptly ready. The spouse's chicken sandwich was abundant, busting with fried chicken and pickles (his favorite). The salmon and vegetables in my bowl were prepared really well. Fresh ingredients cooked to the proper consistency and all uniquely seasoned. The farro was awesome, and a surprise to see on a fast casual menu. The price was pretty great too. All of our food clocked in just under $30. The only inconsistency seemed to be the lack of greens in my bowl. There were some, but not what I imagined when I ordered half & half. I really wish more places like this would spread to Seattle...we are woefully low on healthy fast casual, which is weird because a place like Dig would be on brand. Are you listening Dig?!

Always a 5 star experience. Fresh food that's consistently made and always delicious!! Cooked and served with love. Also, Maurice is the shit! Great experience and ambiance every single time.

Came here for a healthy weeknight dinner and it was amazing!! We came in at 7 and there were a lot of pickup orders coming through, but not very many sitting down. The wait staff was incredibly friendly and kept refilling our water (even though it was self-serve). The flavors of everything was super flavorful and fresh. The kale Caesar salad had a nice crunch with the cashews. The corn was super creamy. The Mac and cheese had the perfect amount of cheese (wasn't too heavy) and the breadcrumbs were a nice add. The tomato and cucumbers were also really tasty and light! Great spot for a healthy, refreshing dinner!

The food was fresh and delicious. The employees were very nice and friendly and remembered my name. Very chill ambiance with good music playing and the place is very clean.

I think I've actually reviewed this Dig before (can we Yelp Yelp to comment on the user experience?) What I said (maybe last summer?) is still true: the food is salty, but the servers are sweet. Nice vibe. One of the big reasons I choose Dig over other fast casual options is the very friendly, attentive service. But now I have reason to wonder: When I leave an additional 18-20% for a tip, does that actually go to the server? I have asked the company through their app. Let's see if they reply.

I love this place. My go to lunch anytime I want something quick and healthy. And they also have dine in plate options?? It looks amazing and the staff is always friendly.

This location is always doing a great job of having your order ready on time and greeting you when you come through the door.

The pricing structure is a bit odd but for $21 including tip I got a kale Caesar salad with a pice of grilled wild salmon, so I can't complain too much. The loud party music is kind of annoying and the floor could use a good cleaning but the salad is tasty and the service is friendly and quick. I be like that I could see the area where the food is prepared and gage for myself how clean it is. (It looks clean.). The salmon was a bit over cooked but tasted fresh.

the food is always delicious. service is fast and the dining area is always clean! I especially like that they have multiple vegetarian options. It's like having a gourmet chef meal in the middle of the day without the wait.

I love Dig Inn. Unfortunately, I recently got violently ill from one of their veg only bowls. Cause: food poisoning. It was not a pretty nor fun night. Hesitant to go back to this location.

Love this place! It's nice to get something relatively fast AND healthy. As someone obsessed with breakfast, I ordered the AVO egg sandwich, and it did not disappoint. It took about 6mins from order to the hand over. It's served on (house-made, they say) focaccia and that definitely adds to the experience with pickled peppers to lighten the palette. ...I would have loved a bit more avo though - the amount wasn't giving main character energy at all. It was more avo paste. In all it was $8 and some change - not bad at all IMO. If you're dining in, there is more of a restaurant-feel with stainless steel cutlery (and not just disposables - yay!). This location has quite a bit of space too.

Food is always fresh, clean, delicious, and such a pleasure to eat and share. The service is consistently polite and friendly, the ambiance is warm and welcoming. I love eating here and always feel great afterwards. I cannot recommend DIG highly enough!! In fact, I'm a health care provider who works with people with eating disorders, usually obesity, and I recommend DIG to them as a healthy and delicious place to eat out. I love it, thank you!

Great customer service. Great food - tasty, healthy, and affordable. I'm ready to dig in again!

Got a BYOB (Build Your Own Bowl) as takeout and my order was Charred Chicken, Brown Rice, Brussels, and Caulifower Parmesan. Don't think you can go wrong here as long as you know what ingredients you like. The charred chicken were well-seasoned tender chicken thigh pieces. There wasn't much rice or maybe I just went through it so quickly with all these main/sides. Brussels does have a bit of kick from the spice as you keep eating. There aren't as many brussel sprouts (small) as I was hoping or maybe it's hidden under all the other mixed greens. The cauliflower does have that hint of parmesan, not bad. I also requested a lemon wedge and garlic aioli sauce on the side not that it was needed. The sauce is a nice addition! My brother got farro for his bowl which I took a nibble of and would totally get that as the base next time if I remember (Brown rice is yummy too). It has a nice chewy texture!

Poor (no) service. I saw the person making the bowl sneeze on the bowl that was being made for an online order. I left without placing an order.

love this place and the friendly counter guys. love the tofu in things and plain focaccia

I lol start off by saying my experiences at Dig are for the most part good . It's never great because it's not mind blowing food but almost always good . This location is different than most of the others. You place your order and if you're dining in you sit down and the food is brought to you . From then on you become your own waiter . You're asked to bust the table after your meal and should you want so extra sauce on that food you get up and fetch it yourself . It's kinda a weird experience to be honest, especially when there are several idle workers behind the counter that can assist and possibly earn tips . In any event , my chicken was kinda dry and would've been an unpleasant experience had it not been for the sauces . The broccoli also had too much of whatever it was tossed in. The meal was just ok and sometimes ok is enough when you're looking for a quick and healthy meal .

Stopped by here during NYU move in dorm week for a quick bite . Staff is super friendly. Food is super fresh and vegan friendly. I made my own market bowl with heirloom tomatoes, roasted carrots, grilled tofu w spicy sauce and greens. I felt great after eating it..it's the kinda food I make for myself and definitely hit the spot. Just for fun, I ordered the banana pudding and it was pure heaven .

Big shoutout to Henry and the crew! Always hospitable and the food oh so freshhhh. 5/5

Good quality wholesome food. Reasonable prices. Healthy. Wonderful seasonal dishes and great online ordering system. I get lunch from here regularly and it never misses a beat.

Was impressed comfortable to sit eat with a real plate and silverware, my Mac and veg was very good and although I do not eat much during the day I finished everything! I'll be back !

fast service, thoughtful enough to ask if I wanted more dressing, calm environment, good food!

So good always hits the spot great easy dinner or quick lunch spot!! Floor is extremely sticky is a downside

This location is unlike any Dig you've experienced. I'm blown away. I have been going to Dig for years (when it was still Dig Inn!) and this has really impressed me! The staff is so nice and the menu is fully made for you, unlike most Dig locations where you have the option to make you own. I was very impressed by the options and had a difficult time choosing since they all sounded so good. I ended up getting the kale Caesar with herb chicken. The chicken was so flavorful I was shocked it came from a fast casual place. It also came on a real plate since I was dining in (great if you're low waste!). It was so good!! Im excited to come back and try the rest of the menu!

clean atmosphere, good food. Solid lunch option near a lot of office buildings. Always return!

Great food and plants what's not more to like. Always a solid place for lunch in the city. Def on the heartier side

Always look forward to splitting a hot honey chicken and a kale salad with my wife. Since we found out about this gem a couple of years ago it's our go to when we're in New York.

My fav healthy dinner in the city. Everything is seasoned well and the staff is super friendly

I had great food, great service and the people working there were nice. I will be coming back and recommend it for anyone looking a quick bite.

Delivery service has improved over the last month or so. Orders have been accurate and delivery has been reasonably quick and issue free.

Fantastic DIG! One of the few places for a healthy and tasty bowl where the portions are great for the price.

Strikes a balance between comfort food and healthy. Consistently great and ready on time.

Excellent service and delicious food!! Love dig for lunch and dinner. Always healthy and fresh.

Looking for healthy options for lunch in the Union Square area, Dig on 4th has the right stuff for you. Indoor seating is available but may be limited during lunch. I come here once a week to try something different on their menu. Their menu consist of bowls, vegan options, and market sides such as charred broccoli and mac and cheese. I haven't tired any of their desserts yet.

The food is great here and the people working here are pretty friendly. I just can't stand how the menu boards are so basic. I know it's to try to get their staff to engage with customers and for customers to ask about menu items but like, no one wants to do that. I ordered the Kale Caesar but no where does it say it comes with tomatoes and avocado.

Friendly staff and have had a great meal every time! Also I love how this location is a fun diner vibe with drinks and unlimited coffee!

the food tasted great! I was very impressed. the service was good too! will definitely be coming back !!!!

Great customer service. Ample portions. Good quality ingredients. Not cheap, but you get what you pay for.

Fire veggies. I get the kale base and cauliflower every time. Mix it up from there. So good.

food is really good! and for New York, the prices are reasonable. lots of vegan options.

Unique was the most friendly and helpful person I've met in quite some time. She was so happy to give us the chocolate chip cookie. I'd love to stop by again.

The food is delicious ! Every item had flavor in it . Almost nothing I tried was an afterthought. They say they like to cook and it must be true. Reasonable prices too. Also the atmosphere is super chill with natural wood and dim lighting - it's a nice spot to chill for a bit. I had the market plate with tofu and roasted carrots and Mac and cheese with farro as a base . The farro had butternut squash in it with pieces of celery to be crunchy but also had a flavor, so it wasn't just bland. I ate all of it . The Mac and cheese was a big portion and really good. I recommend everything I had including the tofu. You can ask for a side of sauce too. I got a very green tasting pesto herb sauce. There's Sriracha in the fridge, you help yourself. I had the red wine , it's like $7.50 for a little carafe. Pretty good for the price. They have a couple beers too. My friend had the steak chef special and enjoyed all of that too .They had a daily focaccia special with butternut squash and garlic confit that was awesome especially with a bit of pesto or Sriracha on top ! Get that. I'd skip the banana pudding though - it just seemed like vanilla pudding on top of cake pieces. Try the home baked cookie if you want something sweet. Other than that everything was excellent. Good spot for single diners too. On corner of 4th avenue and 13th Street.

New location opens to public for regular service on Thursday, November 21, 2019. Today and the following few days they are offering complimentary lunch and dinner to the lucky few who managed to RSVP in time to score a ticket before they were all gone. I succeeded and utilized my ticket for lunch today. I grabbed a bowl to go. Your choices for the Fall are: 1 base- farm greens w/mint organic main farro classic brown w/ parsley 2 sides- chatted broccoli w/ lemon roasted sweet potatoes apple salad sheet tray carrots three beet salad cashew kale caesar autumn potato salad jasper hill mac & cheese cauliflower w/ garlic and parmesan charred brussels w/ honey-chili oil 1 main- grilled organic tofu meatballs w/ tomato ragu charred chicken (thigh) herb roasted chicken (breast) wild Alaskan salmon Your choice of main determines the price of your bowl. The staff was extremely pleasant and helpful as they practiced to get rid of those nervous jitters before the official opening. Another good fast-casual spot to check out. Just A Note: You can add 1/2 an avocado to your bowl for an extra $2. If you taking your bowl to go all necessities... ie: bags, utensils, and napkins are self service.
