“I’m not vegan but I’d heard many positive things so I had to check it out. What a great surprise. No wonder the place was packed. I had a white pizza with leaks and smoked mushrooms. It was large enough to feed 2 especially if you get an appetizer.A little on the pricey side but the quality of the food and very friendly service are very worth the cost.“
“They do a great job of reflecting India's regional cuisines in authentic flavors. The service is excellent, and the desserts are delicious.For mains, loved the Coorgi Murg, the Chicken Malai, and the Fish Vendiam. For dessert, loved the Mango Shreekhand and the Kesari Rasmalai. Looking forward to trying the new mains and desserts on the menu!“
“Finding a place to eat gluten and dairy free is not easy. Especially one that tastes good. I love &pizza! Their topping options are also great. Lots of vegan things to choose from. The food is consistently amazing. I think I'm lucky to go in on the days Sterling works. He definitely cares about the customer experience. He delivers excellent service with a smile. I live between this location and Pike and Rose and choose this location because of the amazing service. Just a heads up, it's a smaller store and is takeout only.“
“My wife and I visited the Bethesda location. Our server was extremely helpful and kind. She explained basically they only cook with good oils. Everything is fresh and organic. The terminology today is clean food. My wife ordered a gin and pineapple martini and it was delicious.! They have an open kitchen concept and the cooks bring the food right to you after they prepare it! Which I thought was a great touch and would answer any questions you might have. I ordered the OG burger medium and it came out perfect so juicy and flavorful the grilled onions on the burger were fantastic and it came with a side of roasted baby red potatoes that were. Delicious. My wife ordered a salad with fresh grilled salmon and the salmon was prepared just the way she liked it not pink in the center and not overly done. Definitely a great concept and the food was extremely tasty. I would highly recommend it. They also have outside seating for a pretty spring evening.“
“The best vegan dining experience I’ve ever had, and “I’ve been around the block”. From the time I walked in the door and was greeted by the hostess, from the server, the sommelier, the food, ambiance- everything was perfect. The food was unique, and delicious. (even my non vegan friend loved it) however, the presentation and service is what put the cherry on top. Just a one of a kind dining experience that will be very hard to top.“
“In town visiting my daughter she made a reservation for us. Really cute decor. We arrived during happy hour had delicious potato skins, so flavorful. I enjoyed the jackfruit entree, big serving. Lots of unique choices with many gluten free options. I did not order a cocktail but they have a good variety. Service was excellent friendly, explained items on the menu, pointed out favorites etc. would definitely go back.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free items“

“Met friends here for lunch. With 6 of us, we had to be creative for seating. Indoors works for parties of 2, and outside are three tables for 4 people. Staff was super helpful making accommodations for an allergy in our group and personally delivering our food which provided confidence. I got a GF Breakfast Wrap, which was delicious and filling. Tasted the broccoli soup - love that the broccoli was whole - and sampled a muffin and energy ball. Everything was delicious. My friend got the burger, and was a little disappointed at the small size. But otherwise everyone was very happy. Nice outdoor seating area, tucked in the alley so it's a bit quieter. Bathroom was clean, and filtered water available at a self serve area. I'd be here all the time if I was a local! Really appreciate vegan food made from scratch that is healthy and not greasy.“
“Best vegan restaurant in Washington DC. I like spending my outing time there. It’s an amazing place the staff are nice and welcoming. I prefer eating mom’s tofu & brown rice with a mango smoothie when I go there. Please try that I am sure you will love it.“
“This was BY FAR the best dosas and Idli we have had in years! Chef Paul is amazing and he told me he doesn’t believe in catering or delivery because South Indian food is best served hot and fresh and I couldn’t agree more! The Idlis melted in my mouth. The dosas were just perfect - the masala and chutney and sambhar -10/10! Go - no run to this place!“
“This was my second time coming. The service is phenomenal and 90% of what I ate and drank was amazing. So far the only thing I haven't liked on the menu was the macaroni and cheese. Best braised short rib I've EVER had. And the scallops were awesome. My second visit was much better than my first time.“
“I recently had the pleasure of dining at elfegne Ethiopian restaurant in d.c and it was a delightful experience. The cozy ambiance and friendly service set the stage for a memorable meal. The Ethiopian dishes were full of flavor and authenticity. I especially loved the injera and tibs – they were cooked to perfection. The staff was attentive and knowledgeable, adding to the overall wonderful dining experience. I highly recommend elfegne Ethiopian restaurant for anyone looking to enjoy delicious Ethiopian cuisine in D.C“
“Every time I go I always have a great time and know I am getting good quality, tasty food and drinks.The owner Greg sincerely enjoys bringing fresh flavors and products to the community. He is welcoming to all and will answer any question you may have to help and make your experience a positive one.Solid spot for vegan, gluten free, and dairy free food. The flavors are new and exciting, definitely worth a try!Dietary restrictions: If you have a dietary restriction of any kind Cane and Coconut has you covered with plenty of delicious options.“
“Stayed at a hotel nearby and found the Hive Bar as we walked the neighborhood. We were looking for something fast and tasty and the pizza did not disappoint!! They were trying out a new menu (for the Super Bowl) so we snacked on popcorn chicken and tatters as well. Tatters are a favorite!!“The” Old Fashioned cocktail was amazing!! Our bartender was an expert and made this delicious drink delicious every time!The bar is accessible, with a bar and tables on the first floor, and an elevator to the rooftop bar. The pizza/food is delivered from &Pizza which is attached to the hotel.Street parking was easy on the weekend.“
“First off- the service here is great! The Monday evening manager was one of the friendliest people I've met at a pizza joint and he was very accommodating! I love that they have vegan and veggie options. My kids didn't come with me this evening, but when they do come, the staff has always been so friendly and open to listening to their crazy pizza toppings ideas! Kiddos to the staff who work here!“
“The food tastes very good. I was surprised there weren't more people dining in here, but whatever. it made service very quick. Falafel tastes really good, and I really like how they package up their sandwiches. I do wish the pita was warmed (it seemed cold), but everything else was great. The fries have a unique spice on them which gave it a flavor I never had (in a good way).“
“I try to come here every weekend or every other weekend! The food is amazing, fresh and made with love. I always get the Caribbean Bowl, I replace the corn with extra arugula, and my heart melts each time. The jerk mushrooms does it for me ever. Single. Time. I love It here!“
“I was highly satisfied, I usually don’t ask for my pizza to be ran through twice but since it had chicken on it I asked for it to be ran through twice just so it could have that well done texture to it. They perfectly re ran it, it didn’t taste burnt at all. The flavor was amazing, friendly staff & clean restaurant. I highly recommend this &pizza location!“
“All vibes. Esthetics were dope..especially for us hoop heads! Wings with the house sauce are a must order. All staff were very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed. Service was fast considering the amount of orders while we were there. Would definitely return again and would recommend to anyone looking for a good meal in the DC area.“
“It's been so exciting to see an entirely plant-based concept be so successful and expanding so rapidly and now that I have visited I absolutely see why. This was one of the best meals I've had in a while. My friend and I had been dying to try their plant-based sushi and not only did it blow us away but the other dishes we tried were equally as incredible. Here's what we got for two people. We were quite full and took some leftovers: - ahi watermelon nigiri (2 pieces) x 2: If you didnt know this was made of watermelon you could absolutely mistake it for the real thing. The texture is mind blowing and the flavor is on point. Amazing way to start the meal (and end it because we ended up ordering another round to finish our meal) - unagi eggplant nigiri (2 pieces) x 2: So delicious. Definitely must order. The eggplant is super tender, just like eel. - spicy tuna roll: we ordered the hand roll but I think the server misheard so we ended up with the maki but it wasn't a big deal and i wasn't upset to get to try their take on maki rolls. I think their rice could use some work but this was still tasty! - Dan Dan noodles: incredible. Our server advised us to get the Dan Dan noodles over the Singapore noodles entirely because of the saucy-ness of this dish and he did not steer us wrong. These noodles are drowning in sauce (in the best way) Even though it's a peanut sauce it was perfectly balanced and creamy. The noodles themselves had a great chew and the use of kamut (a grain) in the dish as a substitute for the traditional ground pork was inspired. - bang bang broccoli: broccoli has never tasted this good. I mean it, not only is the broccoli is shockingly crispy while being perfectly cooked through the center, but the broccoli itself tasted so creamy and delicious unlike any broccoli I have had before. And the bang bang sauce is bangin too. All this being said, if you are trying to be choosy and try the most unique dishes, I would probably skip this dish in favor of more sushi. Overall, this was an incredible, unique, and innovative meal and I can't wait to go back to try more of the menu. This is how vegetables could and should taste, if only we put as much love into them as we do with meat. At least the chefs at Planta are listening.“
“This place is a definite vibe. From the books to the welcoming smile you get from the host when we walked in, the waiter was super chill. The very handsome gentleman with locs who brought out our food to the table....The food was excellent by the way lol, and I love the fact that they had plenty of true vegan options. And not just the vegan label but with animal by products in them. I wish I was here longer. I would have definitely attended the poetry to GoGo competition. But I will be back!Dietary restrictions: There are plenty of true vegan options.“
“Vegetarian options: The entire menu is vegan and the things we ate were very (!) tasty.(We were here 2 nights on vacation, we got the K-Town BBQ Chicken, Crispy Lemon Chicken, Chimi Chimi Pow Pow, Dan Dan Carbonara and the Fried Cashew Mozzarella.)“
“We ordered vegan takeout from this restaurant. They had a fun deal on Ubereats where you could get two slices of vegan cake for the price of one. We were astounded when the food arrived. It's all delicious, high quality and generous portions!We had a vegan pizza with lots of toppings (they offer numerous vegan meats!), chicken parm and spaghetti and meatballs. All was delicious!I HIGHLY recommend getting food here if you're vegan!Dietary restrictions: Vegan“
“Been ordering food here for a few years and it’s always good. Tried the app and it worked great. The staff are always attentive and polite. I love that &pizza has delicious vegan options - vegetables, plant based sausage and chicken, cheese. I always support restaurants that support vegans!“
“Excellent! We picked up some items and the flavors are amazing. The cauliflower bites were good and perfectly paired with he sauce. Then the bahmi with pho broth was delicious. They don't use meat alternatives and make everything from scratch. Definitely somewhere to go even for those not necessarily vegetarian/vegan.Parking: Shopping center with dedicated parking, whoever during peak times it can be hard to find a spot.“
“Vegan reviewer here! It was my first time to Yuan Fu Vegetarian and based on the reviews I was really excited to try them out. I went on a Friday night around 8 PM. From the outside it's nothing spectacular which is a great sign of authenticity. Right when you enter there's booths and tables with the counter at the back. They were about 1/4 occupied. I decided to seat myself in a booth and was greeted right away and handed a menu and was asked what I wanted to drink. I ended up deciding on the pecking duck which was the most recommended menu item and the vegetable chow foon since that dish is one of my favorites to order at any Asian restaurant. The both dishes came out about 10 minutes later. I had never had real pecking duck but wow this was delicious. The plum sauce really complimented the dish. Definitely order this dish. The chow foon was alright. Rice noodles really soak up any sauce you put on it so I was disappointed when there wasn't much flavor. The noodles were also pretty soft and I like them to have a bit of a bite. I asked for chili oil and soy sauce to jazz it up and it did the trick. I have a big appetite but had to ask for boxes. The service and food were great overall and I definitely plan on coming back and trying other dishes. One thing I will say is I asked for an itemized receipt and they had to handwrite it since they don't have a digital system. Both dishes came out to just under $35. Can't wait to come back!“
“I went in to order food to go and it was so fast, maybe 10 mins tops before I got my food and was headed on my way. A few other reviews said the people working here have limited English, but the woman who took my order had no problem chatting with me while I waited - she was super nice and welcoming! The menu has an English side and a Vietnamese side that match up, so you can just show them the number of what you want if you ever run into anyone with limited English. I'm not familiar with many Vietnamese dishes, so I'm excited to come back and keep trying more since the tofu dish I got was SO good!Dietary restrictions: The whole menu is vegan“
“This place is a community. Come in the morning and observe local Ethiopians getting together for coffee and meals. What a place!Staff is friendly. Barista serve flavorful coffee using Ethiopian beans and in high volume. When they offer to coat it bombolino in sugar, take it. Prices are affordable as well!Next visit I'll have to try their food. Only had enough time for coffee and sweets today.“
“Having plant based burgers, fries and shakes at your disposal, especially if you're craving it, is so rare. I love knowing that I can come to this joint and satisfy my craving with their plant based burgers, and so many different versions of it! I haven't tried everything but have enjoyed their "beef" burgers with the toppings of your choice (and they have a ton of them) cheese my favorite. I appreciate the the "chicken" they use by meati, and I do like their carne asadas, BUT the "Impossible" chicken is more my type as a Chicken burger. It's so savory and juicy with the perfect crust when cooked right. (I use an air fryer mostly) As a former meat eater, I really enjoyed the chicken sandwiches from burger king and McDonald's sweet baby back ribs sandwiches when in season.The closest I could find to those ribs were from morningstar but they discontinued them a while ago, unfortunately. I really miss it.Yummy, delicious and thick shakes!Crispy, fried potatoes wedges with creamy yummy dipping sauces, all assortments!Vegetarian options: It's ALL vegan.Dietary restrictions: When you know it's a vegan establishment, there aren't many questions to ask (imo)Kid-friendliness: They have kids meals available!“
“I honestly didn't expect that much from HipCityVeg, since I've never had a great experience with vegan fast food. But, wow, I was soooo wrong. Everything we got was so tasty. I loved my crispy chicken sandwich! Our non-vegan friend even went with us and thoroughly enjoyed her meal! She was impressed by the chicken nuggets. I was also pleasantly surprised that the food was organic!“
“Been to bubbies many times and it’s always so worth the trip! Really appreciate how often they send coupons, gives us the push to order and enjoy their food. We’ve also ordered it for delivery and never had any issues, it’s obviously no longer hot because of the distance but our order has always been correct! Highly recommend.“
“Absolutely amazing. Definitely would recommend :)! Kind people, atmosphere was relaxing, and the food was delicious. Great for vegans and non-vegans! We ordered the crab cake, steak and cheese, Mac and cheese, fries, and it was all so satisfying. There is also a co-op next door that is wonderful :)“
“We came in with a group of 8 (that grew to 10) and they were very polite and accommodating. Even with a big group, the waiter took the time to break down the menu because it was our first visitOur food came pretty quickly and everything was delicious.“
“Great customer service, great location, and even better pizzas! We visited for Pi Day and enjoyed the American Honey and a customized pizza. I highly recommend the American Honey!! The location is about a 10-min walk to the Kennedy Center. Stop by before a show!“
“Awesome food and great service. It took a while for us to get the food but the chef did an amazing job. Very fresh chili garlic naan and the lamb vindaloo was sweet and savory without being too spicy. The chef even personally packed our leftovers for us in those takeout boxes.On the menu, they have many vegetarian and vegan options too.Vegetarian options: Many vegetarian options on the menuParking: Free parking lot and there's parking enforcement (toll truck would come around and ask for people's cars)“
“This is hand down my favorite &pizza. I work down gallery so they have definitely proven themselves. Fee, Blu know my order by heart at this point. Pizza dough are made perfectly shaped with no odd shapes. This is the best &pizza in the “

“I always rely on True Food for its delicious yet healthy food options. We just had lunch there and loved the ambiance - the combination of wood tones and greenery created a relaxing and comfortable feel. The staff member who greeted us was welcoming and friendly, and our server provided attentive and speedy service. Our food arrived within minutes of placing our order.The food was exceptional, especially the edamame dumplings appetizer. They were perfectly seasoned with soy sauce, dashi, white truffle oil, and herbs. The True Blue Grass-Fed Burger was also a great choice. The Peruvian pepper sauce added a pleasant kick to the burger, while the caramelized onions provided a sweet contrast to the blue cheese. The Korean Noodle Bowl was similar to Japchae, made with sweet potato noodles and veggies. However, it had a subtle citrusy flavor with garlic. Our drinks, Kale Aid with Greek yogurt and Bright Eyes, were both healthy and delicious. Their vibrant colors made them a feast for the eyes.I'm looking forward to revisiting True Food soon to try some of their other tasty and healthy options.“
“Had a wonderful experience for the first time in a while at this location! Special s/o to Josh! He was very accommodating and had a very pleasant attitude. The cashier was also efficient and helpful; I didn't get her name, but she was very kind. 10/10!“
“Naked Lunch (located inside Mom's) is a local treasure, serving up amazing, fresh, healthy, vegetarian and vegan food with a ton of flavor. The staff are friendly and have great suggestions if you need one, too. Everything on the menu is great, but we have a particular fondness for the kale Caesar, which has a vegetarian dressing that's delicious on its own, but when combined with the Parmesan, kale, and balsamic roasted hearts of palm, is otherworldly. We get this at least once a week and it hits the spot every time.“
“Listen the price is steel but the juices are absolutely bomb. Great burgers. I love this place. It's also super vegan. Wish they'd stop clinging onto the optional cheese situation for really no reason. Edit: apparently the baked good are also not vegan. Slightly annoying. Updated from previous review on 2022-10-10“
“Nice bookstore slash restaurant Cafe. Plenty of space to work and eat or both. Strong wifi as well.The art decorations are amassing. It's almost like being in a gallery. Service is chill, mostly younger with a chill, friendly demeanor - I like it.I ordered the creole shrimp which was sad in terms of portion. It was $18 for a scoop of rice, several pieces of shrimp and vegetable tomato sauce. Want really good nor really bad just meh. I felt it was overpriced. Plus the shrimp could've been cooked more. But the presentation was beautiful.All in all it's a nice cafe. And I'd recommend coming here to read our but books, drink a coffee and work, but not the food. A bit overpriced for what you get.“
“I really enjoyed the sushi at this place. It was so cool to get sushi that was very authentic, but like vegan! I've never had vegan sushi like that before. My husband got the Bao Buns and they were fine, but he wasn't in love. But, he's never had Bao Buns before so he didn't have a frame of reference. The place is in an odd spot to get to, though there is street parking. And then it's in this cooperative restaurant type space except it doesn't have a stall. There's a sign to knock on the kitchen door and then the person brings you the order. It wasn't really inconvient- I just wasn't sure I was in the right place multiple times.“
“I ALWAYS choose this &pizza to get regular cheese pizza for my daughter who loves pizza so much, and vegan nots or a vegan cheese pizza for my 2 1/2 year old. This &pizza location is always welcoming and kind. They are all quick and great with service. I always receive satisfaction that leads me to leave a tip. My food outcome is on point most of the time if not it does get put on point. No problem. Because of this locations great serivce and welcoming spirit I choose &pizza 80% of the time when pizza is chosen for dinner. If the &pizza that is closer to me had this &pizza's service and welcoming spirit, I would always 100% go to and pizza for pizza. Here to you all at Eastern Market &pizza!!! You all are great, thank you for always making me and my children feel special on our visits, much love!“
“I had a wonderful experience at &pizza on H Street, thanks to the awesome and friendly manager, Wave! Wave's exceptional customer service and welcoming attitude truly made my visit memorable. The staff were attentive, the food was delicious, and the overall ambiance was fantastic. I highly recommend &pizza on H Street for a great dining experience, with a special shoutout to Wave for making it even better!“
“We were starving after the ill-fated attempt to Beat the Bomb (See review). Too tired to walk the mile or more for full restaurant fare that didn't require reservations, all the places nearby were just bar food. And though i don't mind bar food...we wanted something else Honestly: didn't even know MoMs had eat-in-store options. I'd only been to the one in White Marsh, and it doesn't Cutting through the store headed to the elevator to the parking garage, we saw "this": the Naked Lunch And thought. Hmmm. Quick. Healthy. Non-bar. Why not? All vegetarian, vegan, lots of raw, veggies,and legumes, grains, and fruit and vegetable juices! Sooo glad we did! 2/4 of us frequent the establishment so we followed their lead I got the moolah bowl and a friend got a juice made of all kinds of fresh stuff. She said it was THE best fresh juices juice she'd ever had. Unfortunately they were out of both avocado and mushrooms, so I subbed brown rice and black beans. LOVED IT They roast the veggies, and just totally mix the greens and toppings n veggies altogether and dump it in a brown box! DELISH AND HUMONGOUS. I literally am on my 3rd meal of it, today! I'm gonna write to the moms in white marsh and ask why "we" don't have the ear in option? Staff: two VERY hard working folk going at it, being patient with us first timers and totally apologetic about the items they were out of (as though it were their fault). A short line started to form behind us and a lady appeared from the rear to help them out. Good to see an establishment recognize a need to come to the aid of other workers to ensure customer satisfaction“
“I have been to many Ethiopian restaurants in the DMV. Rohobot is the most recommended by my Ethiopian friends. The food is sooo flavorful and the owner is nice too! I order the veggie platter (which is vegan). Enjoy a meal here, your tastebuds will thank you.“
“I love the BBQ tofu. Its a nice sweet BBQ sauce with a little bit of a nutty flavor (not sure if there's actually nuts). The Mac and cheese is okay. Sometimes the cheese texture is similar to the texture of glue. I think I'm used to a different style of vegan Mac and cheese like Nu vegan or E life has. The people who work here are always nice and there's an interesting small plant based grocery connected to the restaurant that you can look around while waiting for your food.“
“A favorite lunch spot with great deals texted right to your phone. Super fast with online ordering ,and always a parking space around back for a quick lunch run when you need it. Thanks for continuing to save me from the "hangrys" on a busy work day.“
“The food is light and refreshing. The price is extremely fair. Its great to eat right as it comes out and it also saves pretty well. The servers are kind--they'll even bring out the food to your car just to make things easier. The vibe is chill. This is a nice, local place that I will definitely be going to again.“
