DeWayne AlstonApril 16, 2017My wife ordered freshly pressed Apple juice. I had some freshly pressed OJ. I didn't know juice could be THAT good. The food is that good. This is just a good place to eat. You should go.
m. hameedMarch 8, 2015Best vegan and vegetarian food in Takoma and Sliver Spring. Worth the train ride from D.C. if your living that sexy.
Only had the black bean burger & radish kimchi so far, but very solid! Overwhelmingly good menu (for sometimes vegetarians in particular), and the wait staff was very sweet. Excited to return!!!
Have been coming here since I was 3. Mark is like my uncle. Get the dumplings (mondu) and ribs (Galbi) 😋❤️
Amanda NouhanAugust 21, 2017Your dollar won't go far! Stay away from the five dollar fruit side. Great place if you're trying to start a diet. But staff is great and Mark makes a point to meet all customers, awesome dude.
JavienDecember 18, 2016A variety of gluten free options. Not much of a wait but does get crowded during early breakfast hours. Great place to chat sense the space is tightly packed.
RyanFebruary 15, 2015A diner with a Takoma Park twist. Sit away from the door if you're worried about being cold in winter. Ginger anything is great.
Elvis MontenegroAugust 23, 2020Their menu is extensive, many American and Korean dishes to choose from. Jap Chae and burger were amazing.
DeniseDecember 14, 2010So good! Vegan, vegetarian, and "normal" food... something for everyone. Mark is super-nice! Food is great! It's not a big joint but definitely worth it if you have to wait for a table.
Ryan OlivettMay 5, 2016There are so many options here. I get the bulgogi every time but other things look great too!
MylineisredJuly 7, 2013Fresh fruit smoothies are delicious. Blueberry pancakes from scratch with 2 eggs sunny side up hit the spot.
Drew MoberleyMay 11, 2012Try the veggie club. Its not only delicious but also very colorful. The plum sauce really makes it something special.
Charlie SannerApril 2, 2012Try the spinach tofu cakes even if you aren't a vegetarian! The spicy grilled tofu is also delicious...- NOM NOM BorisDecember 23, 2011You must try Korean Been & Kimchi Omelette. One of the best dishes in the area. More tips @ nomnomboris.com
The buckwheat and ginger pancakes are terrific. The are sweet enough to order for dessert.
Celia A.June 5, 2011Try the grilled chicken-avacado- bacon club! Deeee-lish! Cheese burger with crab meat... not the best.
Jayson G.July 18, 2011Chesapeke Burger is great! Crab meat on top of a burger party w swiss cheese, mmm mmm good!

Lynn MillerMarch 10, 2010Loved the celery and apple juice w/lemon and the spinach tofu. Great vegan spot!
RandyDecember 6, 2012Chimchi egg roll cold in the middle, I guess things may not be as fresh as you expect, but at least the price is right.- Matthew KuzavaAugust 31, 2010Great food, Great prices, Great atmosphere and one of the nicest owners you will ever come across Read more
Scott CDecember 2, 2012Be prepared to wait a loooong time for bland tasteless food. They also screwed up the check and asked if we could come back and pay again on our way out. We did and they screwed it up again. Horrible!
LaMont PriceApril 8, 2010I could eat at this place everyday. My favorite restaurant, period! Read more
Matthew TretterMay 28, 2010Really tasty French Fries, but we're pretty sure they're putting not-Heinz in their Heinz bottles.
If you don't see Mark and it's crowded, think twice before going in. In his absence service can be spotty.

"Excellent selection of goods from the expected (and high quality) produce, to fresh breads, cheeses, and even bison jerky! Timing is everything, though, because it gets insanely crowded."

"Occasionally this Pharmacy is incredible. Pleasant, quick service--less than a minute, in and out!"
Bruce J - 8.3
"The pistachio is excellent. It's the flagship flavor. Get an espresso to thaw your mouth when you're done!"
