My Mamas Vegan is an excellent Black Owned/Woman Owned/vegan restaurant located in Baltimore…read more I pre-ordered the Super Bowl Slider Platter from My Mamas Vegan. Pre order was easy, I did it all via my phone a couple of weeks in advance. Pickup was also super easy, I found parking right on the street, went in, and had my food all in my hands in less than ten minutes. The slider tray consisted of 10 Sliders. There were two each of Meatball Parm, French Onion Melt, Cheeseburger Cheesesteak, BBQ Jackfruit and Oyster Chick'n. All of them were well done, held up in transit and tasted good as leftovers. That being said, the BBQ Jackfruit were my favorite. If you ever have the chance to get your hands on her BBQ Jackfruit, definitely do it! The sliders came with three sides: a container of Bourbon Baked Beans, Traditional Mac Salad and Chips and Chili Queso These were also well done. Price wise, My Mamas Vegan seemed comparable to other vegan places in the area. I think the slider tray cost about 40 dollars and I, eating everything myself, had leftovers for days. The menu is constantly rotating. Follow their Instagram page where they list their weekly menu as well as specials and pop ups that are running or will be coming up.

I ordered the crab egg rolls. I've never had vegan crab. The egg rolls were shockingly delicious…read more The sauce and the texture of the vegan crab were perfect. Portion was large. Wish I could have purchased half the size and added another food item because I wanted to try more, but you know how those vegan prices are... Street parking is available. The cashier was nice, helpful and patient. I asked alot of questions. I will definitely return to try other items. It was great to see vegan dessert is offered and meal prep grab n go items were available too. This is a carryout place, not a sit down and eat restaurant. Inside is small and basic

The food is always dished up by the owner and chef. She has a warm, serious, and quiet spirit that exudes confidence in what she's serving up. The ambience is actually quite nice and spacious. It's somewhere you could sit and eat, laugh, and relax with some friends over a great meal! - Tracey

Diasporan Soul is a small family-owned restaurant in the Hamilton neighborhood offering a variety…read moreof plant-based and traditional Jamaican American fusion. In my opinion, finding good Jamaican food in the area has been a challenge. Often too sweet and not packing enough flavor. But Diasporan Soul has put that opinion to bed. When you walk into Diasporan Soul they have a very nice Afro-centric dining area as well as a sort of apothecary selection for patrons to browse and buy when the dining room is open. However, the night I stopped by they seemed to be doing only carry out, which you order in the back of the restaurant. My go-to order is always jerk chicken with cabbage, rice & peas, and a beef patty. And Diasporan Soul did not disappoint. The jerk chicken was smoky, seasoned well, and fall off the bone tender. However, next time I'll ask to have my chicken topped with some sauce because that would've definitely taken it over the top. The cabbage was buttery and cooked perfectly and the rice was delicious. The beef patty was actually one of the better beef patties I've had here in the area, with a decent amount of filling. If you're in the area or looking for a new Jamaican restaurant to try, then you have to give Diasporan Soul a try. The service was pleasant, and the food was delicious and plentiful. I can't wait for my next visit.

Came here twice over the past few months, once for brunch and once for dinner. So impressed to have…read morethis quality of food at a purely plant-based restaurant. I think it's excellent in general, not just compared to other vegan restaurants. I give Great Sage 5 stars, meaning everything was tasty and I was impressed. Well balanced flavor in all the dishes. Cheese didn't feel oily or fake, just nice and creamy. Staff is great. Space feels clean and open. Wish it was a little cheaper so I could come more often. However FYI - happy hour on M-F 3-6pm where tapas are $6 instead of $9 and appetizers are $12 instead of $18. Definitely makes it more doable!

Hey friends! This is an unfortunate review. So, the first time I visited Great Sage, I felt the…read moresense that I wasn't welcomed. More particularly, because of my race. I didn't comment nor react to that feeling as I didn't have hard evidence as the staff did not blatantly do/say anything to me. Fast forward, to a year later at my next visit. That feeling was confirmed. Both times I visited with my godmother, who is Caucasian. My issue is with the hostess and NOT the entire staff. It started when we entered and my godmother was greeted warmly and I got a side eye. Hmmm. When we were leaving, I was walking in front of my godmother, she was about two feet behind me. The hostess say absolutely nothing me as I walk by but says "have a great night" to my godmother. To me, these were blatant acts telling me that I was not welcomed. This is unacceptable and unfortunate. Everyone should be allowed and feel welcomed in any establishment regardless of race. This behavior from the hostess was disappointing. I will not be returning to Great Sage.

Finally tried Cisu Vegan House after all the rave reviews and I can tell it will earn a place on my…read moreTop 10 list by the end of the year. I ordered the following items on Uber Eats: - Curry Puffs - Vegan Nuggets - Salt & Pepper Tofu - Black Pepper Ban Mein w/ Thick Noodles The portion sizes for the main dishes (Salt & Pepper Tofu and Ban Mein) were generous, about 2-3 servings and shareable. Which is pretty amazing considering the Ban Mein was $10 (on Uber Eats). I made sure to try a mix of dishes that both featured and didn't include meat substitutes...I was WOW'd by all of the food! As a meat eater, the vegan beef in the Ban Mein was very well seasoned and the flavor indiscernible from real meat. I was especially shocked by how much I enjoyed the vegan nuggets. They had a slightly nutty flavor (likely due to the oil) and a great texture. The salt & pepper tofu and curry puffs were standard, but good. Overall, the food at this restaurant runs a little spicier than usual American Chinese spots. Flavors like curry and five spice came through more, and two of the dishes I ordered used fresh peppers (instead of just pepper flakes). I loved it and will be ordering again!

No onion no garlic restaurant....always a stop from a trip up north …read more I ordered these dishes recently; C4 Mapo Tofu - best vegetarian mapo tofu in all dmv vegetarian restos C5 Salt and Pepper Tofu - best dish for the fried at heart peeps. You have to spread the toppings so when you bite into the tofu, there is some flavor. best eaten once the dish comes out of the kitchen S5 Taro balls - breaded mashed taro needs the sauce that comes with it. Taro is a root often used in Chinese dishes and a healthy carb. Fried may be a different matter so that should balance out lol S9 Fried Wonton - not bad but all carbs; ratio of filling to wrap is 1:6,. While I liked it I wish there were more filling S13 Curry Puff - curried mashed potato in pastry. I like the taste and pastry, though the mouth feel is a bit weird. Better if potatoes were diced then it's similar to a samosa. Have ordered Thai green curry in the past and I love that. Green beans are good as well. Every thing is served in take out boxes and they have seating if you want to eat there. While I'm not a fan of that they use paper containers and most likely compostable and I probably should find out. Happy we have this restaurant in the DMV.

One of the best meals I've had in Baltimore! And the service is exceptional!…read more Oleum is an upscale vegan restaurant with a large variety of menu options. Our server, Josie, went above and beyond to take care of us. She provided excellent recommendations and was super friendly and attentive! We ordered the Batata Harra, Saltat Marrakech, and the Stuffed Dates for apps. All of them were incredible, but the Saltat was so refreshing and the Dates truly stole the show. The creamy ricotta filling with red pepper sauce was to die for. For mains, we shared the Lasagna and did a half and half pizza of The Gabriel and the Toum Raider. The lasagna was super savory and very filling--perfect to share! I enjoyed both pizzas, but the Gabriel was my favorite. I loved the combo of the nutty pesto and spicy Calabrian chilis. Josie brought out a cupcake for dessert to celebrate my friend's birthday, and it was probably one of the best vegan treats I've ever had! Can't wait to come back next time I'm in town!

I had the pleasure of speaking to Tony who not only checked himself but spoke with the chef to confirm the menu was peanut free. * Note there are peanuts used in the cocktails * it was a true pleasure to have an allergy taken seriously and made us more confident to take our daughter there. The atmosphere of the restaurant was very personal and quaint, there was a high chair available for our daughter to use. All the servers were incredibly friendly and helpful. For the food we tried the stuffed dates, miso mushroom bucatini and the toum raider pizza. The stuffed dates were recommended by our waitress and they were delicious. They were both sweet, savory and a little spicy. The walnuts that topped it were a nice touch to add texture to the already soft dates, I enjoyed it a lot. The miso mushroom bucatini was also a favorite of ours as it didn't taste vegan at all to us. It was creamy and the pasta was cooked well. My daughter enjoyed this a lot. The pizza wasn't my favorite but I'm also not a huge fan of vegan cheese so that is my fault but the miso mushroom bucatini was truly so delicious. Overall I really enjoyed the experience, the service was impeccable and I would definitely visit here again!

I asked our server if I could have tofu in the sushi roll instead of the fake shrimp and he just simply said no. No explanation. Later I asked if I could have gluten free noodles in the lo mein and he also just said "no". My dad asked if they could lower the lights a bit and also - no. Zero accommodation. The food was not good, simply put. Waiter didn't bring out any birthday candle for me either. I was excited to try this place out and unfortunately it was not for me. I would look past the heat and the lack of accommodations if the food actually tasted good. Sorry :/

It seems every few years a new vegan casual chain is attempted and they all disappear because frankly they're just not good enough and this is no exception. The fries are decent, though I'd prefer them a little crispier and more seasoned. The chicken head sandwich is barely better than a Boca patty, which is really saying something (negative). The temporary item The big meat was okay but there was nowhere enough of the pulled "meat" it wasn't even as thick as one side of the bun, never mind both. The quality of food for $20 per item is frankly outrageous. I want vegan restaurants to succeed but this isn't going to be the way to do it and there is 0 chance we'll be returning.
