Fantastic selection. I don’t think even bacon could have made the collard greens any better!

Love this place & its peaceful philosophy & all the great vegan food, Awesome vegan Ethiopian soup & vegan quesadillas last night. Was there for a peace talk with author & multiple time Nobel Peace Prize nominee, David Swanson. Totally psyched that this multi-location destination in the D.C. area has announced it's going ALL vegan. Can hardly wait. Hallelujah!!!
