    I had a very good first experience here. The service was good, and the young lady was very helpful in assisting us with picking our first dish to try. The food was delicious! We will definitely be back soon to try more entrees.

    When you want high-vibrational and living (non dead body cemetery) soul food, which is soul food that heals and does not kill, there's only one choice. Enjoyed the Mac and cheese and fried shrooms the most. Greens got a nice kick. Boudin balls can be a return. Greetz from the Mile HIGH city, Denver.

    Hands down, the BEST vegan soul food I’ve ever had. I only had a few hours on my layover so I’m glad this was my main destination. Highly recommend checking it out. I got the platter that comes with fried mushrooms, dirty rice, mac n’ cheese, collard greens. I asked for it to be spicy and it was sooo delicious!

    Wow, all I can say about this place is that the food is plant based, but super delicious. Both my nieces had a burger, Mac n cheese, and I, shrimp scampi. The service was excellent. Beautiful decorations. Nice setting. Good abd beautiful people behind the counter. Please, you gotta try this place if you are vegan. I recommend this place.
