Google Nice little Iskcon presence at a quiet locality. Ample of street parking available (No parking meter). The drive is beautiful.4 stars
Google It’s a simple, peaceful temple with continuous chant going on. Nice place. Sunday evening celebration is brilliant, starts at 4 pm with chants followed by aarthi at 6 and vegetarian healthy feast(prasadam) after that till 9 pm5 stars
Yelp This temple holds a special place in my heart because it is the first Hare Krishna (Gaudiya Vaishnava) temple I ever stepped foot in my life (fifteen years ago). The management has changed since then, but this has become my favorite temple in the New York metropolitan area.I first became Gaudiya Vaishnava approximately fifteen years ago, and since then I made friends all around the world, and did a pilgrimage to India. What's very important to Hare Krishna is association, or a congregation. I am very hesitant to join a congregation, but I found all the people here to be very nice. Prasadam (food offered to Krishna) is very important to the faith, and you can have a vegetarian dinner with the congregants every Sunday. It's very good indeed.I highly recommend the books sold at this temple. If you'd like to read up more and buy a Bhagavad Gita, this is the only New York area congregation that I am aware of which sells reprints of the 1972 edition of the Bhagavad Gita As It Is by Srila A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada (the guru who brought Hare Krishna outside of India). As many devotees are aware, subsequent reprints of the Gita have extensive and controversial edits. During high festivals such as Janmastami, they have a nice outdoor setup in the backyard. Very nice atmosphere.Whether you're a newcomer, curious, or someone like me who is from another mission (Hare Krishna is not from one single organization but many), you may visit and feel very welcome.5 Stars
