Semi-pricey, black owned vegan restaurant. Quality food, great selection and laid back. People come for soul food faves like mac & cheese, greens, and ribs/wings. But there's a lot more to taste!

This place was a revelation to me. I'd never had Southern, let alone vegan Southern food before. The collared greens, mac n cheese and bbq "ribs" were amazing. Great prices too.

Pair a hearty portion of the macaroni and "cheese" with the restaurant's sweet vinaigrette kale salad and fried "chick'n" sandwich for a true soul food-inspired meal. Read more

THE MAC AND CHEESE IS INCREDIBLE. Everyone here is so friendly. I'm from NYC and would consider coming back to DC *JUST* to eat here again. There's nothing like this place anywhere else.

Don't leave this vegan restaurant leave without the macaroni and "cheese," a pasta so garlicky and addictive it could satisfy any vegan's jones for the real thing (tofu helps give it its creaminess). Read more

This is the best vegan restaurant I've ever been to. I recommend trying the mac n cheese, lasagna, crab cakes, chicken drumsticks, chicken salad. However, the curry tofu was bland. Friendly service.

Fantastic vegan restaurant. Great low key place for a date night. Guilt free! Some of the entrees are on the sweet side so make sure to try a free sample before you dig in.

For the mac and cheese, Woodlands chef Chef Mickiyah Woodland emulsifies fresh soy milk with olive oil, garlic and nutritional yeast, which turns it into a heavenly cream with a cheesy flavor. Read more

1st time going I had vegan crab cake. Definitely recommend getting it in a sandwich. Mac & cheese was good as well. Nice sitting area, couches by window.

Went there to try their Mac and cheese and “ Fried chicken “. I was not disappointed, also had their carrot cream smoothie with almond milk .. so yummy

Everything I tried is great! The BBQ sauce, the Mac n Cheese, Brussels sprouts, choc chip cookie, … looking forward to a dining in oppty.

It was like rainbows and butterflies on a plate. The mac'n cheese is outta this world and greens were awesome! Did I mention the raw fruit bar?! If this is immortality sign me up!

Friendly service and lots of delicious choices. If you're there for food, walk all the way back past the cash registers. Sample before committing to their sides because it's really hard to choose.

Omg! I am crazy about this place! It is so tasty! I have just discovered it, and will be back ASAP!

Get some of the meat substitutes. (i.e. Vegan fried chicken) They're always good. Very unique menu, excellent service, friendly staff. #iRecommend

Amazing food. Had the bbq tofu, the mac and cheese and an assortment of side dishes. Will go back again in a heartbeat.

Maryland is quickly building a reputation for having incredible vegan Soul Food and Woodlands is one of the very best of the best here or anywhere.

Shepherd's Pie & Mac n Cheese were amazing! The collard greens & green beans were also well seasoned! Yum!

I love their tuna Mac, red wine kale, n their vegan cheeseburger! Plus their fruit smoothies are amazing

Always a favorite for innovative and filling vegan salads in a warm and welcoming environment.

Try the Vegan Mac N' Cheese, and the Vegan fried Chicken Sandwich. Not very healthy, but very tasty and unique

VEGAN. BUFFALO. WINGS. OH MY GOD. If I could I'd probably eat at Woodlands for every meal for the rest of my life.

A must try for an vegan. Do not miss the mac and cheese or the corn bread.

I was presently suprise. This may have been the best vegan crab sandwich I ever had!

The fish sandwich, my friends, is where it's at. And the steak and cheese is easily the best bang for your buck.
A VickieOctober 11, 2016
Veggie burgers are great. The black bean burger in a wrap with the BBQ sauce is delicious!
Monica BApril 2, 2013
They could DEFINITELY stand a decor upgrade/freshen up but, the raw juices are very good and the staff very friendly!!
Laurenellen McCannDecember 22, 2011
There's a learning curve for your first trip, but the payoff in food quality, variety, and serving sizes makes this 100% worth it (and a return visit).

Vegan mac n cheese, and vegan drumsticks were wonderful.
Lamar McClainMarch 27, 2019
Vegan Crab Cake; best in DC.
Lyndon LevettOctober 13, 2017
Have the curried tofu, really good... if you can try and fit in a cake
Lyndon LevettOctober 13, 2017
Soon as you go in, go to the back where the exit sign is that's where you get the food from.

Get "2 cold sides" but do 4 halves so you can sample a bunch of stuff!

Mix hot & cold bar items for the most delicious options!
Rick ServossJanuary 18, 2016
Good if you're in the area. Not worth travelling to. Once you get there, head straight to the back kitchen to order. There are no waiters.
LaurenNovember 10, 2012
The smoothies are excellent. Small side portions are quite large by my standards.
Gabriel FelixJune 26, 2016
their sweet kale salad and black bean burgers
megan dunnJune 4, 2013
Macaroni salad is delicious and the cinnamon roll is unmatched!

The Garvey Burger is to die for.

Not a place for conservative, hard-of-hearing parents - all others should love it :)
