“Had taste for some fried whiting tonight and decided to venture over to this new location and give them a try. The restaurant was clean and we were greeted by the host as we entered the restaurant. I just love the consistency with the details with the decor- such a lively and colorful atmosphere. The restaurant was busy which was expected but the line moved rather quickly. My fish was fresh. Nice and hot just the way I like it and seasoned very well. My cabbage, yams along with 2 additional sides of corn and potato salad were also delicious. While standing in the line we were offered to try the plant based options they offer, which were surprisingly tasty! The meatballs and the pepper steak were delicious. I would definitely opt for these on a future visit. My husband just ordered the fish basket with fries and also helped me with all my sides. There was plenty for two and even enough for some left overs. All in all we would definitely venture back for a future soul food cheat meal... Happy Yelping!“
“The ABSOLUTE BEST EXPERIENCE I HAVE HAD IN A LONG TIMEEEE! Thanks to our bartender Ashley she made my visit here literally the best. Her recommendations and the drinks were awesome and the food was overall the best! The service was 10/10 thank you Ashley for making this the best experience. If you come to Kitchen & Kocktails you must ask for Ashley!“
“Beautiful room, fantastic service and excellent food. Only knock is that it is a touch noisy because of the acoustics of the room, but overall would highly recommend.Dietary restrictions: Friend dining with me has a list of allergies (carries an EpiPen), and staff was very considerate in providing options.“
“I hadn’t been here in years since they changed ownership. Looking at some of the reviews I was leery. Boy am I glad that I didn’t listen. Went here for dinner last night and everything was absolutely delicious. The fried chicken, fried catfish, lambs, crab cakes and sides of Mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, collards, potato salad, and corn bread were all superb. It definitely tasted like eating at your grandmothers. The potato salad was just like my Gma’s; finely diced with celery, celery seed, and a slight tang of mustard accompanied by a slight sweetness. The collards are vegan hence no meat but were still delicious, tender, and flavorful. The drinks were delicious as well. The portion sizes were quite large with everyone having leftovers except for the lamb chops they were so delicious that my friend ate all of them. Matter of fact when she accidentally attempted to cut them with the wrong side of the knife it still went through. Couldn’t recommend more supporting this black owned business.“
“Came here on a whim because I had a taste for some Caribbean food and lamb chops, and I was not disappointed. When I walked in, I was immediately greeted by the staff and the premises was nice and clean. I ordered the lamb chops, rice and peas, and greens and cabbage. I also ordered the deviled eggs with shrimp as an appetizer. Though the price was a bit high it was definitely worth it. They brought my appetizer out before the entree which I must say is important to me. The deviled eggs were amazing! I got 5 of them and good sized shrimp with jerk sauce. I could eat a dozen of these!! Next the lamb chops. They were okay, tons of flavors the only thing I can say is I wish they were cooked medium/medium rare but that may be on me for not asking. These were cooked closer to medium well, which wasn't bad but not my preference. But the rice and peas were great as was the greens and cabbage. The portion sizes are good (not too much and not too little) Overall, my meal was satisfying and I would return. The staff made sure I was good (also clean bathroom!) Check this place out!“
“I had such a memorable night a Georgia Brown. Very welcoming place, awesome peach martinis to put our table in the right mood. Very kind staff, extremely generous portion, full of flavor. I was not able to finish the guambo which never happened to me before. Phenomenal, no question on why Georgia Brown is a local institution.“
“My first time here. It's been a while since I had been out so for water me and my friends came here. The ambiance is cute. Very barrel like place. Especially if you are a whiskey drinker. The bottomless mimosas were a hit. Our waiter Mason was awesome. He assisted us with our many dietary restrictions lol. The manager even came over and chatted with us. I would definitely come back. Oh and we finished brunch off with a whiskey flight!!!! Yes a good time was had by ALL......“
“Not too welcoming in 2024, I applied there when they first came to the neighborhood . lot of white people, then I figured out why they didn't hire me you but you never know the Pearl and the oyster. I hope they change their practices. Expeditor could manage your time a little better especially when you got gumbo and salad, and then the barbecue comes out cold. It lessens the experience of having to take it home and warm it up. But those biscuits stop me in my tracks.“
“This food is so good!!! Working out of a very small kitchen in Sycamore & Oak, with quality of the food that is better than most sit down DC restaurants. Husband got the Jerk Chicken sandwich and I got the shrimp tacos and they were both delicious!“
“Situated in a buzzing food hall, this place still manages to stand out.The staff are just great; so friendlyandhelpful. They allowed me to sample everything before deciding what to have. But even then, it was so difficult because everything was delicious.“
“Very well decorated definitely New Orleans vibe lively and crowded ,service was fine not over the top but met the requirements I ordered the mac n cheese it was good, collard greens were good but didn't have the kick I expected the cornbread I didn't like. The presentation is awesome but it is my preference to have a softer fluffier texture however if you like what is probably the original texture of cornbread you may like it. The portions are healthy.“
“Ordered breakfast here this morning On a whim. Didn't see the atmosphere so thats why the lack of stars. Never been here before or know anyone who has. Plenty of menu options along with many ways for you to customize your item. We were happily surprised at how good the food was and the good portions. I'll def order breakfast here again. Will have to check out lunch/dinner too.Vegetarian options: Plenty of veggie options.“
“Well worth the drive!! While visiting the Great Wolf Lodge in Perryville, Maryland I was in the mood for some soul food. I googled a few place by looking at the pictures, so Henry’s soul cafe in Washington DC caught my eye, Plus I was going to be in the area. Food looked good but I had to wait till I got back to my room to eat because I didn’t go to the one with a seating area, No problem though lol but I was hungry. All the sides were delicious, i got the rib plate it was good and tender. My wife got the fried pork chop plate and she loved it. So much food we was eating off each other plate.“
“Delicious and very friendly service! I had jerk chicken (spicy) which came with rice & beans, cabbage, plus I ordered a side of plantains and a bottle of sorrel (hibiscus/ginger drink). All were excellent. I was going to try a seafood dish but those are made fresh to order and take about 20 min whereas the other dishes come out immediately. Next time I'll have to order ahead for fish! btw I accidentally dropped a tip in a coffee mug and Andrene was very gracious about it! ☺️“
“Was in from Detroit and stopped in to catch the Wings and Capitals game. Service and food was phenomenal. Pedro made the atmosphere awesome and even though the Wings lost the Capital fans were gracious with us being there. Went back the next night for dinner and it didn’t disappoint! Highly recommended!!“
“I am so happy this place is still open. ❤️ I used to work in the area. Whenever time would allow, my go-to order was the "Royale": BLT with fried egg, american cheese, and hot sauce. Just a mess of a sammich....BUT SOOOO FRIKKIN GOOD!!! Their fried chicken is good, so are the mashed potatoes. I wouldn't stray away from those options, but have heard good things about the pork chops.The very best thing about this place is THE PEOPLE WHO WORK THERE!!! I could always count on service with a smile, sometimes a good joke or two.“
“This place never misses.If cornbread was a food group baby I’ll be big as a HOUSE!Food always fresh… Did I mention the CORNBREAD?!?Sweet and soft like cake just like my grandma used to make. If you’ve given up your summer body, treat yourself?“
“I visited this restaurant while here from out of town, and I happen to go on a night they were closed. I luckily saw the owner and he said he was expecting guest so he would accommodate us as an exception. The food was absolutely delicious! Service was exceptional. You can tell the owner is really into what he serves to the customers. He knows his stuff and you can tell by the end result; great food. I would highly recommend this place. Go open minded and you’ll come out happily experienced!“
“Jennifer was AMAZING!!! The food was great and the service was outstanding! The wings and macaroni and cheese are a must try! The pretty as a peach was one of the best lemon drops I’ve had.Check this place out and ask for Jennifer’s section!“
“I ordered through grubhub & the food was soooo fresh & the container was wrapped in plastic which kept everything hot. I enjoyed the love that went into the fish being as tho I'm pescatarian. I would recommend this place for the fish“
“I can only rate this place as average because I haven't tried the food. I pass this place often so I thought I'd drop in one day. I wasn't impressed with the menu nor the prices so I decided to leave and MAYBE try them on another day...“
“I work close to YOUNG'S!! IT'S literally the best fried chicken breast I've ever had it's so good! I live in Baltimore so I've eaten from several chicken spots! But this chicken is on another level of goodness! If they were open on weekends I would drive an hour to get it that's how good it is!Parking: Enough parking“
“Food is out of this world, great!!! I don't know how they create such great tasting food without animal products, but they do it, and they do it well. Service is "good," but would be so much better if the servers would pep-up, smile, and get excited about the fact that they are providing what so many people in the county have been looking for. Healthy food choices. Many restaurants come and go in the county, and I believe that the ones that don't make it are those that have not stressed the importance of the "customer experience" to their staff. I LOVE the food at this establishment, but if I continually feel like the staff is only tolerating me, for a check; or they're not invested in the owner's success, I know that I won't continue making the trip. The first time I came, there was a young lady who took me through all the food and offered samples. She's the kind of person that belongs out front. But in more recent experiences, some staff barely look you in the eyes, and they're speaking so low that when you ask a question, you hardly hear the answer. I STILL rate this restaurant HIGHLY!!!! Getting the staff onboard to be as excited about the customer's experience as the customer is about the food would make this establishment #1 in the Prince George's County vegan restaurant space. And possibly #1 in the DMV and beyond.“
