I ordered a latte and some beignets for the road with white chocolate sauce, and OMG - so so yummy! I loved my little piece of NOLA in MD. & my next time in the area, I will for sure be returning. This location is super fitting too, with a lot of customers coming with their laptop or workbooks to not only eat and be served, but to use the space for their own personal development.

This review is about service and class and who I will and will not trust to prepare what I consume…read more I ordered a Velvet ice with oat milk. The woman taking my order added "no whip" because she assumed I didn't want dairy at all. When I asked for the whip they, with a nasty attitude, told me I had to pay extra. That didn't make sense to me considering the photo shows whip cream included. They started having a conversation in the back about me for making this simple request pointing out what their menu shows. I then pulled up the menu, waited in line again, and I showed them the menu and the mobile app which both show whip included and which you actually have to deselect it and neither has an additional fee. The woman preparing my order acknowledged that she deselected it on my behalf since I asked for oat milk. At this point - this is absolutely not about the whip cream or the upcharge, it is the abhorrent service, the aggressive demeanor, and the unexplained disdain I was shown when I treated both women with nothing but respect from the moment I walked in to the moment I walked out of the establishment. ATP the woman who took my order saw the issue and was going to resolve it by, of course, adding the included whip cream! However, the manager, DJ returned and interfered refusing to allow her to do so & going on a rant directed at me when I was not at all in communication with her. Then, as she was returning my order (which included a tip btw!!) she proceeded to attempt to insult me by saying, "if you don't have 70 cents to pay for this, just say so." For the record, the tip I left was more than the 70 cents so that obviously did not land well. Throughout this dumbfounding experience, I was standing there, my voice calm, not raised, in a store full of my customers (after I patiently waited in line a second time) at 10 months pregnant. We all have bad days, but on so many levels, this cannot be acceptable at any point. To insult someone to try to win a "debate" over a non-issue in an industry where some of us remember "the customer is always right," is despicable at best. I hope someone finds a training opportunity in this, but I will not return to ever find out.

What a beautiful place of worship and fellowship! Here is the largest mosque in the US.

The restaurant is open to the public as well as the campus, for tours. There is plenty of ample parking and people are very welcoming. If you are considering visiting, be advised when in the courtyard to enter the mosque, shoes need to be removed and hair covered if a female. There are cubbies for shoes and if you don't have a shawl or scarf you can purchase one in the gift shop. The restaurant is open to the public with Turkish cuisine. You'd be hard pressed to find authentic food like this elsewhere in the area. I walked away with a belly full, tears of gratitude, wonderful fragrance and a new friends. Look forward to returning.

The coffee roasted in house here is so smooth and flavorful. The G.O.A.T Bagel with tomato, goat cheese, avocado, and Old Bay seasoning is delicious, as are the açaí bowls! The open area is a great place to work if you like a bustling environment that smells like roasting coffee! There is often limited seating available as it is a popular place for people to sit, chat, and work. For parking longer than 15 minutes, there is a paid lot just up Gallatin street next to the post office. I love the garage door entrance when the weather is nice. Feels like a nice, welcoming, community space.

I've heard good things about the honey cinnamon latte / coffee in general! I tried the chai latte w/ oat milk (no up-charge for milk alternatives, which is much appreciated), but was surprised to find out it's very, very gingery. It was good, just a bit too much for me personally, as I was looking for a standard/regular chai, but if you like ginger check that out! I would come back to try other drinks. Our barista was nice.

AunTea Boba's drinks are so good for not having to drive to either college park, dc, or Annapolis for a boba drink. I recommend the Mango Marble with Star Jelly if you are craving something sweet. The Taro flavor is also a solid choice. The ambiance could be better since it's a little strange that it shares the space with a barbecue shop. However, the service is always kind.

The owner has stated he will not update the price increase on the menu until people complain which is so weird, so here I am. I go to AunTea Boba often and every time I've been, the brown sugar boba/pearls are almost never completely soft. I have to spit out hard pearls after every sip.

Three must-tries here at this El Salvadoran and Mexican neighborhood bakery go-to:…read more 1.) Get the breakfast platter with plantains, scrambled eggs, chorizo (sausage), refried beans, crema (similar to a milder, sweeter sour cream) and queso fresco (dry, salty squares of cheese). There are 3 variations on this breakfast platter, served all day here. You did not visit Flor Blanca until you eat one of their breakfast platters, shown in photos on the special breakfast menu. And, the rich coffee - to go with it - is definitely a thing here. 2.) Get the soft banana pudding bread (I don't know what they call it but it's the only dessert with a golden top that looks like a square slice of bread pudding.) Heat it up at home. It's tender and mild. Don't pour rum on top of this bread pudding because you may not be the same, afterward. And you will end up wanting more. 3.) Get the plain tamales and make sure to buy extra crema. You cannot find homemade tamales just anywhere outside of holidays. These tamales are so good. Meow meow meow meow. Listen, there is a lot of good food here. I love the plain white rice as it is seasoned well. So when it is served with an entree I sometimes get another side order to take home. The horchata drink was an early afternoon ritual for me, at times, along with the heated banana bread pudding. (If anyone knows what this is called I'll update the description.) People live to go in-and-out just to pick up a red tray and fill it up with pastries to go. Tempting! The cakes are moist and the cake pops are delicious. I love the mango tres leches cake here. And you can get a large, professional cake baked. There is a whole catalog of special event cake designs to choose from. Even though they close at 8pm, most people eat here much earlier, as I've seen and seem to finish before 7. I used to come here when no English was spoken at the counter. You could say the food names by navigating and pointing to the menu photos. It was like you were in a completely different country. Now, a few years later, all of the staff can speak to you. Either way, they were patient with me and my broken Spanglish. I really like the team, here. We have been here en la noche (night) - eating late and enjoying the food - and they have always been gracious and helpful. Just ask them what the most popular dish for that time of day you are there. I'm learning that we need to come earlier and take our food to go if it's after 7ish because otherwise we are sitting alone. There are so many menu items I didn't touch on which I've enjoyed, but do not miss the first 3! #localtastebyjenny

The only major shock that I had was buying hot food and bringing it at home. The sticker shock on my food had me frozen and stalled for a moment then I got passed it. They have everything in the store just a variety is varieties of produce and cheese and meat which I don't eat. The breads are beautiful; I've spent more time standing in the aisle than I should have just looking over stuff. Do not go to the grocery store hungry that's a general statement for all grocery stores, but particularly Wegmans. I was walking down the aisles planning in my head how big a sandwich I can make or should I go to the deli bar and have them make the sandwich. There's so many products to choose from such as bread, condiments, cheese produce, and a vegetable even my faux meats. Wegmans has their own brand of plant base meats. I can take all of the ingredients home and build it as big as I want and as sloppy as I want. It was just too much to consider but I'm glad I encountered Wegmans. I'm gonna miss it when I go back to the West Coast. My suitcase will be full of Wegmans food instead of souvenirs from the various sites of the area.‍‍
