At last, after years of seeing them place in the local top places to eat, I finally paid them a…read morevisit. They're usually closed the days that I'm in the Upper Marlboro area, but not this time! It's in the same Plaza as the Amish market, so there's plenty of parking. I stepped inside and there were a couple of chairs for waiting along the window. Otherwise, it's a small open space and there are desserts on display, I'm in you to read, and very polite staff behind the counter. I decided to get the blackened salmon and shrimp entree with collard greens and mac and cheese. I got their salts at caramel banana pudding for dessert. I decided to use my insulated bag and wait until I got to my friend's house to eat. I love the shrimp and the salmon. They were seasoned well, but not to a point of tasting too salty, which can happen at a lot of soul food restaurants for me. Unfortunately, despite the good flavor, this was the case with the collard greens, whew. Also, there is turkey in there, so don't get it as a vegetarian option! The mac and cheese was good... Not sure where I would put it in my rankings, but I enjoyed it. That banana pudding.... Whoa. It was the perfect dessert, and I would happily get it again. The salted caramel and banana balance surprisingly well. Their top rankings are well deserved, and I am looking forward to trying their wings and other items next time!

The fish was seasoned very well...my fried shrimp were tooooo salty...the mashed sweet potatoes were ok...greens bland, Mac & cheese-eehhh & the potato salad disgusting.

Oh & my hush puppies were ok...& that caramel banana pudding was tooooo freaking sweet for me... I was disappointed... was rooting for this spot! I remember when the owners were first beginning... not too many good local soul food spots that have good potato around here... & the customer service needs help! Happy Yelping!

Thanks to Chef Devanta, our holiday party today was a success! He delivered the (self-serve) taco…read morebar exactly at the time agreed (noon), curbside in front of our office on Constitution Ave, in spite of downtown D.C. traffic during the President Biden African summit. The food was in big warming bags to keep it warm. Food was tasty, not salty or fat-laden like fast food. Everyone (about 35 people) talked about how good it was and asked where it came from. Each (federal government) employee paid a suggested donation to cover the cost, so it was important to me that everyone enjoyed it. Chef Devanta was easy to work with. He offered options and worked with me to stay within budget. He made sure there were vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options AND he made my party-planning responsibility easy! We spoke by phone a few times before and after ordering, then he called 2 days before the party to confirm everything. We talked again this morning just to check in. I am so pleased and grateful! Easy ordering, tasty food, happy group, front-door delivery, friendly chef! I do believe he will be on our preferred business list for the next party! This is one happy party planner!

This is my first year purchasing a share from Calgett. I wasn't sure what to expect. I purchased a…read morehalf share (13 weeks) not knowing how much food I would receive or what kind of food I would receive. Farming is unpredictable, it's impossible to know these things in advance. Every week the produce has been great. The produce is organic, fresh, and delicious. I've received produce that honestly I've never seen before. I was also concerned that I wouldn't be creative enough to find use for everything. That has not been an issue. I've made some amazing food with my share each week. If you have ever thought about a CSA, sign up. If you're struggling with the cost of produce at the grocery store, sign up. My only regret is that I only signed up for 13 weeks, not the full 26 weeks. I'm also concerned now about the winter, what will I eat when Clagett stops delivering delicious goodies every week?

When you get inside, you will see a plethora of different stores inside. My favorite is the meat market in the back. They always have the best quality meats that you could only get from a butcher.

Warning: this specific store only takes cash I always bring people here when they come to visit us.
