The quality of the food here has gone down hill. I prefer the salads as that is the freshest thing there. Most of the food is actually not made in store.
Ate here June 30, 2019
Well seasoned and cooked food (not over or under cooked). Prices are reasonable for vegan food. The drumettes are the main reason I went to this restaurant and they did not disappoint. My order included collard greens, black eye peas over rice, lemon herb drumettes and honey drumettes. I never pass up sorrel and it was very good as well. I will return the next time I’m in MD.
Always a pleasure to eat their delicious food.
They also have whole watermelons with seeds.
Great price extra sweet!
Amazing meal! I will be coming back again during my weekend visit in the area
10/10 passed out when I ate it
I had been struggling as to whether or not to make this post because I like this place so much. I always get asked, “why do you keep going if the customer service isn’t the greatest and you always have an issue when you go?” My response is, because the food is good. After the last visit, I’m paying a ton of money to not have good customer service along with good food. I always order over $50 of food, but the last time I also ordered a plain waffle. Once the waffle is handed to me, it’s handed to me with all of this sauce and fruit. I told him I wanted a plain waffle but I said it’s okay, because I didn’t feel like waiting again for the waffle which is made fresh.
I get to my destination and took the waffle out of the container to put it on plate. That’s when I realized why I was given a waffle with a bunch of stuff on it I didn’t ask for, it was burnt at the bottom. That to me was messed up, instead of saying we burnt your waffle do you mind waiting a little longer? Giving me a burnt waffle and covering up the fact that it was burnt was deception. I spoke very highly of this place to multiple people and even had them try some of the food I’ve purchased in the past. I think I will give this place a rest for a while, it’s unfortunate because their food is good. The customer service needs to be addressed too, act like you want to be there even if you don’t. The most pleasant people I’ve dealt with when going there were the Spanish servers and the guy that wears what I think is the kufi. But unfortunately, he was the one who passed off the burnt waffle.
It was nice to eat somewhere with so many vegan options! I would definitely get the breaded vegan chicken cutlets again and the biscuit was pretty good but I do not recommend either version of the mac and cheese because the mac is quite soft. I regret not choosing the grits over the mac because those looked great! Drink option are all bottled juices and smoothies and a few lemonades - no water, soda, or tea.
Love the gluten free soy free options.
Took BossLady to Everlasting Life for the first time. She absolutely loved it. She had the BBQ tofu cashew mac and sautéed broccoli. The lemonades were a bit sweet. I added coconut water to dilute, and it was very good.

The food is good and sometimes not good. You have to stick to what you know you like. They do a pretty good job, and I love the cakes they have. Please try them.
Vegetarian options: It's actually all Vegan and it's something you have to try for yourself. There is something for everyone's flavor profile and the menu changes from day to day.
Parking: Tons of parking, so that is never a problem

I’m not vegan, but wanted to try a new restaurant not knowing everything was vegan made.. the customer service and atmosphere is amazing! Again, I’m not vegan so the food was a surprise to me but it looks delicious so I didn’t think twice until I tasted the texture. I would highly recommend to vegans and plant based family!!
