“Had taste for some fried whiting tonight and decided to venture over to this new location and give them a try. The restaurant was clean and we were greeted by the host as we entered the restaurant. I just love the consistency with the details with the decor- such a lively and colorful atmosphere. The restaurant was busy which was expected but the line moved rather quickly. My fish was fresh. Nice and hot just the way I like it and seasoned very well. My cabbage, yams along with 2 additional sides of corn and potato salad were also delicious. While standing in the line we were offered to try the plant based options they offer, which were surprisingly tasty! The meatballs and the pepper steak were delicious. I would definitely opt for these on a future visit. My husband just ordered the fish basket with fries and also helped me with all my sides. There was plenty for two and even enough for some left overs. All in all we would definitely venture back for a future soul food cheat meal... Happy Yelping!“
“This was my first time and my friend and I really enjoyed it. Our waitress Maya was attentive and charming and very pretty. We went with her recommendations and it didn’t disappoint at all. I will definitely be coming back and asking for her. I can’t wait for y’all to come to Philly..“
“I hadn’t been here in years since they changed ownership. Looking at some of the reviews I was leery. Boy am I glad that I didn’t listen. Went here for dinner last night and everything was absolutely delicious. The fried chicken, fried catfish, lambs, crab cakes and sides of Mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, collards, potato salad, and corn bread were all superb. It definitely tasted like eating at your grandmothers. The potato salad was just like my Gma’s; finely diced with celery, celery seed, and a slight tang of mustard accompanied by a slight sweetness. The collards are vegan hence no meat but were still delicious, tender, and flavorful. The drinks were delicious as well. The portion sizes were quite large with everyone having leftovers except for the lamb chops they were so delicious that my friend ate all of them. Matter of fact when she accidentally attempted to cut them with the wrong side of the knife it still went through. Couldn’t recommend more supporting this black owned business.“
“The service was fantastic, and the atmosphere is cozy yet a little busy. The food is very good but fell short in a couple of areas, but only because our expectations were probably set a little high given the reviews and menu prices. The biggest improvement, in my opinion, can be made to the shrimp and grits. The flavors came off a little bland, and the texture was very wet, almost runny. It was close to being soup with how much sauce and oil was allowed to sit over and around the grits. I still think this is a great place to visit and recommend it if you haven't been yet.“
“Came here on a whim because I had a taste for some Caribbean food and lamb chops, and I was not disappointed. When I walked in, I was immediately greeted by the staff and the premises was nice and clean. I ordered the lamb chops, rice and peas, and greens and cabbage. I also ordered the deviled eggs with shrimp as an appetizer. Though the price was a bit high it was definitely worth it. They brought my appetizer out before the entree which I must say is important to me. The deviled eggs were amazing! I got 5 of them and good sized shrimp with jerk sauce. I could eat a dozen of these!! Next the lamb chops. They were okay, tons of flavors the only thing I can say is I wish they were cooked medium/medium rare but that may be on me for not asking. These were cooked closer to medium well, which wasn't bad but not my preference. But the rice and peas were great as was the greens and cabbage. The portion sizes are good (not too much and not too little) Overall, my meal was satisfying and I would return. The staff made sure I was good (also clean bathroom!) Check this place out!“
“I took a group from the Lehigh Valley in PA for a weekend trip to DC and we ate at Georgia Brown's last Saturday evening. I loved the atmosphere in the music, the decor was great, and the music just suited this place. I had a Kansas City Shuffle for a cocktail which was amazing, and had a delicious entree (Charleston Perlau) which I would recommend to everyone. I also split the fried tomatoes which were excellent. Definitely enjoyed my time there and would definitely go back!“
“My first time here. It's been a while since I had been out so for water me and my friends came here. The ambiance is cute. Very barrel like place. Especially if you are a whiskey drinker. The bottomless mimosas were a hit. Our waiter Mason was awesome. He assisted us with our many dietary restrictions lol. The manager even came over and chatted with us. I would definitely come back. Oh and we finished brunch off with a whiskey flight!!!! Yes a good time was had by ALL......“
“Not too welcoming in 2024, I applied there when they first came to the neighborhood . lot of white people, then I figured out why they didn't hire me you but you never know the Pearl and the oyster. I hope they change their practices. Expeditor could manage your time a little better especially when you got gumbo and salad, and then the barbecue comes out cold. It lessens the experience of having to take it home and warm it up. But those biscuits stop me in my tracks.“
“I've experienced catering at events, but this Saturday, Chef Donté catered a Sneaker's Ball for my Aunt's 60th Birthday, and let me tell you something! Ive never had SHRIMP AND GRITS like that before. Nothing dried out and the flavors was just Amazing. I missed out on the 2nd spread, but everyone was saying the Salmon tasted was just Incredible!!!“
“Situated in a buzzing food hall, this place still manages to stand out.The staff are just great; so friendlyandhelpful. They allowed me to sample everything before deciding what to have. But even then, it was so difficult because everything was delicious.“
“This is a restaurant that had great ambiance. You can eat outside by a fire pit, or inside and still enjoy your meal. The food was really good but it is southern style food with Asian influences. So be aware of this when ordering or going. I would suggest looking at the menu before going to make sure you'd be interested in the meals.Parking: You can park near the parking garage at the the end if the strip and just walk down to the restaurant.“
“Ordered breakfast here this morning On a whim. Didn't see the atmosphere so thats why the lack of stars. Never been here before or know anyone who has. Plenty of menu options along with many ways for you to customize your item. We were happily surprised at how good the food was and the good portions. I'll def order breakfast here again. Will have to check out lunch/dinner too.Vegetarian options: Plenty of veggie options.“
“Well worth the drive!! While visiting the Great Wolf Lodge in Perryville, Maryland I was in the mood for some soul food. I googled a few place by looking at the pictures, so Henry’s soul cafe in Washington DC caught my eye, Plus I was going to be in the area. Food looked good but I had to wait till I got back to my room to eat because I didn’t go to the one with a seating area, No problem though lol but I was hungry. All the sides were delicious, i got the rib plate it was good and tender. My wife got the fried pork chop plate and she loved it. So much food we was eating off each other plate.“
“Delicious and very friendly service! I had jerk chicken (spicy) which came with rice & beans, cabbage, plus I ordered a side of plantains and a bottle of sorrel (hibiscus/ginger drink). All were excellent. I was going to try a seafood dish but those are made fresh to order and take about 20 min whereas the other dishes come out immediately. Next time I'll have to order ahead for fish! btw I accidentally dropped a tip in a coffee mug and Andrene was very gracious about it! ☺️“
“I am so happy this place is still open. ❤️ I used to work in the area. Whenever time would allow, my go-to order was the "Royale": BLT with fried egg, american cheese, and hot sauce. Just a mess of a sammich....BUT SOOOO FRIKKIN GOOD!!! Their fried chicken is good, so are the mashed potatoes. I wouldn't stray away from those options, but have heard good things about the pork chops.The very best thing about this place is THE PEOPLE WHO WORK THERE!!! I could always count on service with a smile, sometimes a good joke or two.“
“This place never misses.If cornbread was a food group baby I’ll be big as a HOUSE!Food always fresh… Did I mention the CORNBREAD?!?Sweet and soft like cake just like my grandma used to make. If you’ve given up your summer body, treat yourself?“
“I visited this restaurant while here from out of town, and I happen to go on a night they were closed. I luckily saw the owner and he said he was expecting guest so he would accommodate us as an exception. The food was absolutely delicious! Service was exceptional. You can tell the owner is really into what he serves to the customers. He knows his stuff and you can tell by the end result; great food. I would highly recommend this place. Go open minded and you’ll come out happily experienced!“
“Loved this restaurant. It's about 0.6 of mile away from the very busy main street area of Alexandria. There is plenty of street parking nearby and on side streets with a parking garage somewhere nearby too.Great place to grab brunch. Delicious food and we tried the Bellini which was good too! Would recommend!“
“Jennifer was AMAZING!!! The food was great and the service was outstanding! The wings and macaroni and cheese are a must try! The pretty as a peach was one of the best lemon drops I’ve had.Check this place out and ask for Jennifer’s section!“
“I ordered through grubhub & the food was soooo fresh & the container was wrapped in plastic which kept everything hot. I enjoyed the love that went into the fish being as tho I'm pescatarian. I would recommend this place for the fish“
“I can only rate this place as average because I haven't tried the food. I pass this place often so I thought I'd drop in one day. I wasn't impressed with the menu nor the prices so I decided to leave and MAYBE try them on another day...“
“I work close to YOUNG'S!! IT'S literally the best fried chicken breast I've ever had it's so good! I live in Baltimore so I've eaten from several chicken spots! But this chicken is on another level of goodness! If they were open on weekends I would drive an hour to get it that's how good it is!Parking: Enough parking“
“Food is out of this world, great!!! I don't know how they create such great tasting food without animal products, but they do it, and they do it well. Service is "good," but would be so much better if the servers would pep-up, smile, and get excited about the fact that they are providing what so many people in the county have been looking for. Healthy food choices. Many restaurants come and go in the county, and I believe that the ones that don't make it are those that have not stressed the importance of the "customer experience" to their staff. I LOVE the food at this establishment, but if I continually feel like the staff is only tolerating me, for a check; or they're not invested in the owner's success, I know that I won't continue making the trip. The first time I came, there was a young lady who took me through all the food and offered samples. She's the kind of person that belongs out front. But in more recent experiences, some staff barely look you in the eyes, and they're speaking so low that when you ask a question, you hardly hear the answer. I STILL rate this restaurant HIGHLY!!!! Getting the staff onboard to be as excited about the customer's experience as the customer is about the food would make this establishment #1 in the Prince George's County vegan restaurant space. And possibly #1 in the DMV and beyond.“
