“This was my first time and NuVegan Cafe and it was a pleasant experience. Elijah was very sweet and professional and the food was amazing. I had the crab cakes, a chicken drummie, Mac and cheese and yams. There were a lot of photos of famous people that have supported the restaurant along the walls and that was really dope.“

“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.“

“The food here is always great. I've been going for years, and not once been disappointed. They also have a great bar, where you can have a cocktail while you wait! I highly recommend their fish dishes.Vegetarian options: They offer a veggie plate.“

“True to description, it's a cafeteria in a church basement served by nice ladies. The portions are beyond generous for the price. I got a ribs meal for 15 bucks that's a good two BIG meals for me.Ribs were so good, meat just falling off the bone. Enjoyed the yams and the greens too. Didn't have a line when I went there at 11:30 on a weekday.Recommend for soul food on the area.“

“If you’re seeking a dining experience that blends impeccable service, exquisite cuisine, and a dash of Southern charm, look no further than Ms. Toya’s Creole Seafood in Silver Spring. From the moment we stepped into Ms. Toya's, it was clear that we were in for a treat. Our server, Felicia, went above and beyond to ensure that my husband's 60th birthday celebration was nothing short of extraordinary.The table was adorned with charming birthday decorations, setting the stage for a memorable evening.Felicia's knowledge of the menu was impressive, and she patiently guided us through our selections, making recommendations and explaining each dish with enthusiasm.The whole red snapper fish, cooked to perfection, stole the show. Paired with broccoli and asparagus, it was a symphony of flavors that left us craving more. My husband's gumbo was rich and flavorful, while the bayou and surf 'n turf rolls were a delightful addition to our meal.After dinner, Felicia surprised us with warm beignets and vanilla ice cream, accompanied by a heartfelt rendition of "Happy Birthday." Her warmth and charm truly elevated our dining experience.If I may offer one suggestion, it would be to consider providing wet naps or warm towels along with a bib for messier dishes like the gumbo. Despite my husband's best efforts to avoid spills, it was a humorous moment that added to the charm of the evening.In summary, Ms. Toya's Creole Seafood exceeded our expectations in every way. With impeccable service, delicious cuisine, and a welcoming atmosphere, it's a dining destination we'll be returning to again and again.Parking: Convenient parking is always a plus, and Ms. Toya's Creole Seafood doesn't disappoint in that department either. We parked in Town Square Garage, the large parking lot across the street, with its multiple levels and clear signage indicating available spaces, ensures a hassle-free experience from the moment you arrive. Using the ParkMobile app to pay for parking adds to the convenience, allowing you to focus on enjoying your dining experience without worrying about parking meters or finding spare change. Plus, the well-lit surroundings and ample signage make navigating the parking lot a breeze, ensuring a stress-free start to your evening at Ms. Toya's.mKid-friendliness: While Ms. Toya's Creole Seafood may not be the ideal spot for children with shorter attention spans, it certainly caters to adults seeking a relaxed dining experience with excellent food and drinks. The atmosphere is more suited for adults looking to unwind and enjoy their meal without distractions. However, they do provide high chairs and have a friendly staff willing to accommodate families with young children. So, if you're in the mood for fantastic food and drinks and can keep your little one entertained, Ms. Toya's is still a great option.“

“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! ☺️“

“FIRST TIME GOING: I tried the jerk wings with the jasmine rice and a side of greens.The wing meat falls off the bone. The rice picks up the jerk flavoring beautifully and is light and not starchy. The wings were nicely proportioned and meaty too. You won't feel that you are not getting enough.The greens (their "mamas greens") are really done well ?. Nicely flavored in a beautiful brown pot liquor (that you will want to drink -- like I did -- after you finish the greens). The greens have just the correct texture with no hard stems. They melt in your mouth but are not mushy at all... You won't find a better bowl of collards.Overall the food I had was packed with flavors, filling and not swimming in fat or overly greasy. I'm glad I tried this place and will return to try other menu options. I'm impressed ??“

“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 :)“

“Was in the mood for fish and found this one my Google search. Pleasant service, giving a mom and pop vibe. I ordered a whiting sandwich with a side of fries and cabbage. Food was amazing. Fish was made fresh to order, without the long wait. Ate half in the car and tried to save the rest for when I got home.“

“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.“

“Imagine this: You just won a hard basketball game. You step outside the gym and it hits you: an overwhelming hunger for fried chicken. You scour Google for places, and a humble local chicken spot catches your eye. You call them and order a box of chicken drumsticks. You drive a short distance to the place, and are promptly given your food after paying an almost criminally low price. Still skeptical, you walk back to the car and set the still warm box on your lap. You open it to see its golden contents: fried, crispy chicken wings and french fries coated in a mysterious seasoning. You take a bite of the chicken, and an explosion of flavor occurs in your mouth. The seasoning, the crispy breading, the warm, moist chicken combine to create a sense of awe and wonder. This is Hip Hop Fish and Chicken, your new favorite chicken spot.“

“Absolutely incredible food. Went here on a friend's recommendation, best meal we've had in the US. Grits and shrimp, mac n cheese, peach cobbler - all incredible. Solid vegetarian options. Staff were super friendly and helpful.Only thing to note is that the U street address is takeaway only.Vegetarian options: Many sides are veg friendly, enough for a feast.“

“Love the food and music here! My favorites are the Seafood Mac and cheese, General Tso’s Cauliflower, Fried oyster mushrooms, Fried fish sandwich, and Sweet potato cake. The potato salad is not bad, just a bit runny and needed some paprika. Highly recommend trying this place out“

“Customer service is nonexistent, I don’t know if the male that waited on me is neurodivergent, but I kept saying thank you while ordering and when he gave me my food. He just looked at me. I was the ONLY one in the establishment so a greeting, “hi, how are you” or a wave from the kitchen staff would go a long way. However, they just look mean with no emotions. But hey, at least the food is good.. ??♀️?“

“Welcome welcome welcome... Food is always on point. It's a must every time I visit the DC area. Smothered pork chops & creole baked fish were delicious. Two sides came with each order. We got cabbage, mac & cheese, greens, sweet potatoes & some black eyed peas. Cornbread is amazing.“
“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.“

“Delicious African food! First time trying fufu and it was so amazing. Definitely will be coming back to try other foods. I got the goat egusi with fufu. So flavorful and a bit spicy. Strong goat flavor which added so much depth to the dish. The fufu is a nice base/carb to eat with the thick stew like dish! Definitely would recommend the dish:) Small store in College Park Plaza with limited seating. Not busy so you can definitely enjoy your food there if you'd like!“
