Highly recommend! The staff are always so helpful and patient. The food is amazing! Especially the original macaroni and the lasagna! They offer some specialty drinks and smoothies that are very fresh and soo delicious!

Drove all the way from Leesburg,VA and they didn't really have much of a selection. It looked good online but in person, there weren't many food options. It also was dark and dingy, along with the cashier not really seeming like they wanted to be there. He was nice, though. The place needs a little decor and some lighting so we can see the food. Because of the appearance, I chose not to buy any food. I'm sure the food is good but the appearance of the atmosphere is off-putting. I was willing so spend an easy $100 here. I would like to return if this place gets some lighting and more food options!

Every item I ordered was fresh and delicious. I came for the collard greens and black eyed peas, they always hit and never miss. I also purchased the red cabbage which was prepared with sesame oil. The orange "chicken" and the carrot side dish are yummy also. I sampled a few dishes before buying. An on sight Baker is coming soon.

I just went in ELife about 15 minutes ago to get a dinner and I know it was close to closing time but they have plenty of food still left on the front line. The young lady has such a attitude I just told her I was good and turned around and left even though I came from across the bridge say get their food when I could have went anywhere on the other side of the bridge. I will patronize them again my hope she's not at work that day

I had the fish, Mac and cheese, zucchini, jambalaya and all of it tasted great! The service was pleasant too. Only issue was lack of parking and i had to circle the block a time or two.I definitely wanna go back but the parking may keep me away.

Food was hot and ready but no staff were there.

They need better advertising and signage. Being inside the center, alllll the way in the back, does them no favors. The menu is paired down even further on the weekends. Food is great, tasty as always. But, this is like a hidden jem. Even though the HQ is much livelier.

Vegetarian options: All of it is great. They have versions of almost everything they don't use certain ingredients.

Out all 3 locations this is the worst. You can’t have expectations from this location, I’ve been hoping since 2018 and I am always disappointed.

Hubby and I attended an event at Elife Restaurant on this past Saturday Dec10th and this was our first visit and we're from NC it definitely will not be our last, the food was Amazing, cooked to perfection, We had collard greens, spinach casserole, cabbages, mac n' cheese and those desserts that pumpkin spice cake slice and I purchased a bean pie to bring home and wish I would have purchased more. Very nice clean and pleasant environment, love the energy there. Can't wait to return to the new location!
