The dairy free Caesar changed my life. Best quality and priced lunch deal in downtown NY.

I was on Hudson looking for lunch and found this take out place Ready To Eat. The food was excellent. No joke. I ordered fresh ham and a second dish of chicken. Both came with a side. I chose the Brussel sprouts and a pasta salad. I brought them home and they were delicious. We have enjoyed each dish we have tried so far. We are delighted to have them near by.Their food is very very good.

A charming, top-quality gem in the West Village. It’s rare to find such careful attention to every dish given the variety on offer. A must-visit.

Ready to Eat in the west village on Hudson Street by w10th Street, has very healthy cooked dishes of vegetables and grains and meats, and like good restaurants, sources many of their fresh produce from local farms from CSAs or the local farmer's markets, which tend to be low or no-spray and fresh. There are no preservatives and no additives, unlike many grocery stores. The steamed vegetable dish with broccoli, brussels sprouts, carrots, and shiitake mushrooms was very fresh, and the eggplant dish had a very flavorful sauce, and I could conveniently carry the dishes home in my own stainless steel restaurant containers to avoid wasteful packaging.

Grab and go spot with a rotating daily menu that includes tasty proteins and salads. Always feel satisfied with the options here - just wish they could allow mixing two half portion of mains !

Genuinely one of my favorite spots in the city (which is crazy because there are so many incredible options)! They put so much care and love into everything they make and make meals that have you feeling amazing all day long. Couldn’t recommend enough!

Ready To Eat is a real gem. Everything tastes homemade but sharp in flavor fresh, balanced, and done with care. You feel they’ve been perfecting this for years. Fast, reliable, and the best hidden NYC spot. Highly recommend.

Got the caponata and one of the most delicious salads I had in the west village. Simply real food! If you manage to meet Rami, you ll probably end up eating there every day.

A friend of mine and I have been to “Ready to Eat” several times. Each time we’ve stopped in for lunch, we’ve been really impressed. We’re impressed with the quality of both the customer service and the delicious food. Let me break this down! First of all, it’s a charming eatery, with old-school West Village vibes, reminding us of the days when the crowd here was more artsy and less corporate. And it exists on an unassuming block, on Hudson Street. One could almost walk by without even noticing it, which is largely why I’m writing this complimentary review. (We gotta publicize this great place!) The woman who has always served at the counter there (around 1 PM on weekdays), is: friendly, efficient, patient and welcoming. She always brings a smile to our faces. And the man who serves in the kitchen area seems quite warm, too, even though I haven’t spoken with him as much. The food has always been fresh, plentiful and tasteful. Bravo! The last time I was there, I ordered the turkey burgers paired with the lemon potatoes. So awesome! Another time, I ordered the Greek/Israeli salad, which was also really awesome. I also had a kale-based salad there once, which was equally awesome. With that, I highly recommend this lovely eatery, replete with good food and good people. Happy Holidays, everyone! My Best, Katherine “Kat” PS I gave “atmosphere” four stars - not five - above simply because there’s no indoor seating…it’s solely a “grab and go” place. Yet, for what it is, it’s fantastic! : )
