Eatsa, the futuristic fast-food chain based in San Francisco, is expanding to New York City.

The vegetarian restaurant, which specializes in quinoa bowls that cost about $7, uses technology to automate the ordering and pick-up processes. Customers can dine in or out without interacting with a single human. It's a little scary.

According to Time Out New York, the popular breakfast and lunch spot will open in midtown in the fall.
