I was a little disappointed with my experience . So I ordered online and the person who was suppose to drop it off called to tell me he had to leave and someone else would drop off my order. By that time it's been about 35 min already. He said they told him they ran out of lamb chops and had to make some more. The driver couldn't wait because he had another delivery to make. I finally get my food. SIDE NOTE: Why do these delivery people continue to put your food on the ground after you specify them to knock or call. Even when you leave a tip? But anyway... I can tell that they ran out of prepared lamb chops because the ones I received were not seasoned at all. It seemed they tried to slap some sauce on it and grill it but all I tasted was grill char and bland borderline tough meat. The Mac and cheese saved my tastebuds. A little loose but at least I tasted sharp cheddar. The yams were okay nothing too special. I wanted to really like my food but I didn't and was very disappointed. Maybe this is a place you have to sit and dine in for. But I won't be in a rush to do. read more

Celestial Cafe - Lamb Chops , Mac & Cheese & Candied Yams - American Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

I wanted to love this place, but maybe it just wasn't meant to be. I'd heard so many great things about the food. Went on a Saturday and ordered through GrubHub for pickup. I live about 30-40 min away, so imagine my surprise when I was told my order wasn't ready AND that they didn't know what I ordered because their GrubHub wasn't working. Ugh. The lady was nice, but I felt they could've called and let me know before I got there. I got the collard green egg rolls, crab egg rolls, lamb chop dinner (with Mac and cheese and green beans) and catfish tenders with fries. The food was okay. The flavor was good, but nothing unique. The portions were small considering the price, and overall I was just disappointed with my experience. read more

First they added gratuity to the to go orders... Now they add two lines of gratuity to your bill and can't explain why smdh I will never return because I don't like businesses that try to get over on customers. I have tried to return to this place several times and each time I return I end up taking away a star smh look at my other reviews starting from 7 months ago and you will see ... so today was the last visit read more

This cozy little neighborhood soul food restaurant is full of charm and flavor. Let's talk about the unique apps. Has anyone ever heard of a collard greens egg rolls What about a Everything egg roll Me either Let's talk about the deliciousness of the collard green egg roll that takes the classically cooked greens and puts them in egg roll form with and amazing sauce that's slightly sweet with a little heat. Talk about kicking up a notch Then the Everything egg roll was like having Thanksgiving all in 1 roll. Collards, macaroni & cheese, and candied yams plus the dipping sauce. What stop the madness!! We also had the perfectly fried catfish nuggets starter which is served with the most amazingly seasoned fresh cut fries and an aïoli dipping sauce. Btw, these apps were made for sharing. The egg rolls come in 4's. I opted to the fried whiting entree with macaroni and cheese, and collard greens This was a good choice and in fact I had to take some home . I was totally full from apps. Let me also mention that this is a black owned family restaurant. The owner Phil is out on the floor helping to serve and adding a welcomed personal touch Our server Noel was amazing. Her personality is infectious and she added to the enjoyment my group had this evening. If you're in the area or even if you're not it's worth the trip. read more

Celestial Cafe - Fried Whiting Fillet, macaroni and cheese, Collard Greens - American Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

Was visiting from out of town and I found this place on Instagram. Food is amazing and the presentation is A+. The only reason they didn't get five stars was because they didn't have yams or collared ready. Definitely try the crab eggrolls. read more

Celestial Cafe - Lamb chops - American Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

I can't review the food because every time I try to order they wait an hour and cancel my order. Just unprofessional and really annoying.

Food is excellent but disappointed that they are charging 15% gratuity on a carry out order!! How is that possible when you order thru DoorDash and Grubhub , no charge! Would have given 5 stars! read more

The food is delicious and they so accommodating. They have a variety of food options that are well priced and worth every penny. I will be going back!!! read more

Food tasted oily and old. Extremely disappointed given the prices and the hype. The food looked nothing like that on their social media site. $65 down the drain read more

I never leave reviews but this place was not it. The service was terrible, the person at the host stand was also the same person running the floor and taking orders. Brunch menu is not brunch food, only breakfast so I'm not even sure why it's called brunch. There's not even appetizers on the brunch menu to order from. The service was so slow, we have been waiting 50 minutes and still have not recieved our order. All we ordered was shrimp and grits. We asked the hostess/waiter/receptionist how long our food would take and she said she does not know as she is not the judge of that. Why is there 1 person running the floor, Where are the rest of the waiters?? Black owned businesses want support and business but it's always over priced food with terrible service. Never fails. My husband and I found this place through an Instagram blogger - CharmCityTable. Wouldn't recommend this place and definitely won't be returning. read more

I haven't posted a review in awhile, but I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. The egg rolls with greens are so good, it made me reconsider my brief plant-based stint. The lamb was amazing and the freshly ground pepper set it off. The sweet potatoes tasted just like my mom's. I've found a new spot on the east side. No pictures to share because we dug in. read more
