I don’t know what happened to this place they really changed for the worse the food doesn’t even taste the same anymore … the guy who served me don’t even know the difference between the drummies & claim that the ones he gave me were Maple Drummies when they wasn’t…. I told him I was just there yesterday & it didn’t taste the same AT ALL! Plus it was a bit Burnt! This the second time ‘my order was messed up & had to turn around. This used to be my favorite place now it’s just not the same what happened to The Old Team? NuVegan is a bit more but I’ll just be going to them when I want some Vegan Soul Food. ELife in Capitol Heights is Better than this one smh too… Also it’s like they don’t season the food here.

Although the food was tasty, the presentation wasn’t good. I drove about 45 minutes to check this place out and got there around 6:30pm. When we saw the hot bar everything looked like it had been sitting out all day and pretty dry. I, being a shy and polite person, mustered up the boldness to ask how long it had been sitting out and found out it had been sitting out since 11:30am. Since I drove so far, I went ahead and ordered. My suggestion would then be to have a manager monitoring the hot bar regularly and replacing the dishes out with fresh food.

Came on a Friday and enjoyed maple honey drumettes, cashew mac and cheese, and collard greens a lot. The buffalo cauliflower was too vinegary-y for my taste. No frills, well made food with a rotating menu. 🙏🏾 to all the vegan options!

Amazing vegan food that changes from day to day. Everything is very flavorful and well seasoned. We always get the wings with taste really close to real chicken and alway hit. The greens are always tender, and the vegan mac is something special. It's hard to make good cheese substitute but they nail it. Always friendly staff to chat with. Really good vegan deserts as well. We come back every few months.
