    Special menu
    Christia D.

    Very homey vibes here. We ate both the specials that were available and we were not disappointed. Sweet potato omelet and seasonably fruit French toast Both delicious and highly recommended. Food came out very quick as there wasn't a rush Local Baltimore business that deserves the support ! Bring your cash for a small discount ! Would return to again for a good Meal Lots of veggies and vegetarian selection here. Certain items can be made vegan as well I would say if it is well priced as well

    Walk in , watch your step it's many dark wall areas decorations, very dark steps so if you're handicap, please do watch out and might need to get some help. I feel that you get to be seated at the table of your choice. The menu options are very clear, but also the same time there's not that many that I feel that are very healthy to pick from and a very actually disappointing that some of the paper is really wrinkle as you're looking at the menu and Vegan selection is not a very bright or a wild factor and I had a salad and I was on a disappointing site. Actually, the salad dressing options can and I'm not even from that state and I feel that the stirfry can be improved. It was very bland no flavor not much texture. It was very boring. Customer service was OK. It wasn't great. The decorations were just all the same theme and it made me feel a little uncomfortable almost to the point where I had to cut my meal off shortly I had to ask for it to go box.

    CRISPY TOFU AND TRIPLE P CURRY
    Sarah S.

    i'm always on the hunt for more vegan restaurants, so i was excited to find one world cafe. you have to use the side entrance and it's not immediately obvious where to go. the inside is mostly cute, but i was seated at a table across from the bar which wasn't very cozy. i ordered the triple p curry, which was pretty good! the flavor was definitely good, but it's advertised as crispy tofu and it's definitely not crispy. i also think the curry:rice ratio is a little too high, more rice would balance it out more. the rice is advertised as basmati, but it seemed like it was a different kind of rice. the portion sizes are large enough to take leftovers home. the staff was cordial but not very friendly while i was there, but i wanted to sit and eat with minimal interruptions so that was fine. i've heard their sandwiches are good, and if i go back i will order something else.

    ORGANIC TOFU CLUB

    Delicious. Will be back. Fun secret alcohol menu that is only delivered via word of mouth from waitress.

    One World is the vegan casual stand-by in Baltimore - for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They have a full coffee bar and a full bar. I have been coming here since 2003, and this place is consistent. If you are vegan/veg or are entertaining guests who are, this place should be at the top of your list. This review focuses on their vegan food, but they have a great vegetarian menu that I just haven't sampled in years. Beverages: They have lots of options. I like their soy lattes (see pic). They also have an extensive tea list. You can get lots of good juice, love getting the carrot juice. I haven't really tested out the bar, but by the consistency of its occupancy at all hours, including the AM, I imagine that it's great. Breakfast: Tofu scrambler is a favorite of mine. I suggest adding their salsa which us great. They have great sweet vegan breakfast options (try the vegan French toast!), too, but I am more of a savory breakfast person. Lunch: They have a daily fresh vegan burger that is always awesome - made from scratch. I'll reiterate, the vegan lunch menu is huge. You can get delicious chili, a Philly steakless, quesadilla, nachos, and the list goes on. Don't miss out on the chickn salad when it's on the menu! Dinner: You can get all of the lunch items, and they have a great and varied choice of vegan entrees suitable for date night. I love the enchiladas, and they have great specials - love the sloppy Joe's and vegan stroganoff, to name a few. Dessert: Their vegan desserts are to die for! Robin is their vegan baker, and her cakes are always on point. Do not miss out on the coconut or vanilla cakes (often made with some fruit filling)! The moistness of these cakes will bring a tear to your eye. Service/atmosphere: It's got a laid back college vibe, but the dining room sets the tone for a casual date night. The servers are great, and the food comes out fast and hot (I'm always shocked at how fast). Kelly will treat you like family as do the owners, Cindy and Sue. They accommodate any special request with a smile. Just the staff, service and the vibe are worth coming back here for again and again. And, DO NOT MISS their vegan Thanksgiving! Always in my top 5 meals of the year. All in all, you need to put OWC in your vegan/veg rotation. Enjoy!

    Caramel Iced Coffe with Almond Milk
    Jordan B.

    One World Cafe is a quaint little bakery and breakfast spot located right outside of the Doubletree at John Hopkins University. I recently stopped in with some friends on the way back to Hampton Roads from Baltimore. They specialize in vegan/vegetarian options, so the most meat you'll find in one of their entrées is fish (for those that are pescatarian.) I ordered a smoked salmon omelet with cheddar cheese home fries, wheat toast, and a caramel iced coffee with coconut milk. The food could've used a tad bit more seasoning; however, I left feeling, full, satisfied, and energized for the road trip back home. Service was great too, our waitress was helpful and made sure my friends and I were accommodated throughout our meal. There was virtually no wait time for us to be seated and our food came out very shortly after we ordered. All in all, I would have to recommend One World Cafe for anyone looking for a good filling brunch and good fast service. I can't wait to go back and try some of their vegan desserts. They looked yummy.

I am plant based vegan and always get skeptical when I travel and try to find true plant based vegan options. The raw juice I had was a 12 oz and it was The Chill which had spinach, mint, apples and oranges. It was really good but could have been a bit more chilled. The food options on the menu I would definitely eat but I had already eaten prior and just wanted a green juice.

Notably, this place was open into the evening, despite the name. I found the perfect occasion to try it, but what I got wasn't quite what I was looking for. While they definitely have the luxury of fresh ingredients and are all vegetarian I think, their interpretation of a kale caesar had more grains than greens. It seems weird being in the position of wishing there was more kale in my kale salad. The hearts of palm were interesting, and while I was critical for a moment of the staff having a conversation about not knowing what hearts of palm are, admittedly I wasn't quite sure myself (it pretty much is what it sounds like). However, the amount of parmesan they were cooked in was heavier and saltier than I was expecting for a salad. I'm not saying it didn't taste good, but again, though it was a full box of freshly made food, it just was not really what I was looking for. Maybe some of the other items are different.

    As a lover of Greek food, I was so excited to try their menu for Baltimore Winter Restaurant week…read more They were offering unlimited mezzedes (small plates) for $45. My experience was very underwhelming. The positives: I liked that there is a parking lot across the street specifically for the restaurant because street parking is very limited. We were greeted and seated right away. Our server was nice and tried her best to be attentive even though the kitchen was so backed up and moving at a snails pace. The pita bread was delicious. The desserts were great. My favorites were the baklava and loukoumades. Really the only dessert I didn't care for was the chocolate rum and roses cake because I'm not a big rose fan because it has the tendency of overpowering the other flavors in certain treats. The negatives: The kitchen was very slow at getting things out, even though the restaurant wasn't packed. Aside from the desserts, I didn't care for the food. The biggest issue was everything was lukewarm by the time we received it at our table. The hummus was just ok. The bread was great alone. The Greek village salad had way more feta than anything else and needed more oil and vinegar. The spanakopita was ok but some batches came out burnt but they were never hot. The Cyprus meatballs were so burnt that we couldn't even eat them. The lamb and beef dip was too salty. The stuffed grapes leaves were just ok. The macaronia tou fournou had the potential to be really good but it was not warm enough. I want to believe it was just a bad night and maybe their food is better outside of restaurant week but I'm afraid to try again and be disappointed. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be returning.

    Cypriana was quite a treat. We had a reservation and were immediately seated. There are two…read moredifferent seating areas. One is more of an expected dining room, and the other is a table space near the bar. We were seated in the latter section. I will say this was my only minor complaint. It seems like they want to be an upscale dining experience, but the presence of TVs playing sports is killing the vibe. However, the service and food by far compensated for that. Carolyn (I believe was her name) was our server, and she was just fantastic. She was pleasant and attentive. My daughter and I split four of the mezzedes, and I ordered the mushroom soup and she ordered a side of lemon potatoes. My favorite dish was the wood-fired olives. Simple, but so very good. She loved the halloumi so much, we got a second order (it is a super small serving). The spanikopita, on the other hand, was quite large and meant for sharing. We're vegetarian and found the options both bountiful and delectable. While it is a bit on the pricey end of the spectrum, I'd say it's worth it.

This is Puerto Rican pitorro, also known as ron cañita, made with care and intention rather than gimmickry. Many local liquor stores now carry the brand, and it is well worth picking up a bottle, but visiting the distillery is an experience in itself. The founder is a fellow Puerto Rican born retired military member, a background I share, and like me, he has put down roots in Maryland. That story is reflected clearly in the brand's own framing, "Puerto Rican born, Maryland made." The space feels grounded and unpretentious, and that sensibility carries through to the hospitality. We arrived late on a Saturday and were still welcomed warmly, never rushed. We were taken care of by the founder's daughter, who was exceptionally kind, attentive, and knowledgeable. She guided us through a flight that included the traditional pitorro, almond, pineapple, coffee, coconut chai, and several seasonal offerings. The flavors were thoughtful and well balanced; even the infused expressions retained a clear rum backbone rather than drifting into novelty. We enjoyed them enough to leave with several bottles. This is artisanal pitorro done right, rooted in Puerto Rican tradition and confidently made in Maryland. Buying it locally is convenient, but going to the distillery is where the people, the story, and the spirit fully come together.
