    Needing a quick salad since my last entry had meat on it. Saw the restaurant name many times but never stopped in. But they had a sweet or garlicky kale salad and price was right. They gave out free sample, I was hooked . Garlicky kale and the chickpea cold salad was a packed takeout container of both. Especially even I'm about to jump on an 16hr flight, have something to nibble on. Service was easy and helpful, lot of soy ingredients in most of their protein dishes, I avoid. But the salad were great. Something vegan Mediterranean, that wasn't bad and has ability to move into more pea plant based proteins for better nutrition value. But the ambience and space usage is brilliantly orchestrated

    1st time visiting !!

    Great visit! Great service! Amazing options! I visited w a gggf after my Yelp Community manager (Anna) raved about their Garlic Kale Salad. Let's just say... SHE WAS RIGHT!! This place was absolutely delish !! Easy to locate from Charles Street. Plenty of metered street parking. Entrée, side and dessert options galore!! It took my gf and I at least 25 minutes to select, sample and discuss choices. We decided on Peppersteak, Man N' Cheese, General Tso's Cauliflower, Garlic Kale Salad, Cabbage, and Fresh Ginger Lemonade. Everything was so so yum!! I think the gentleman who assisted us name was ... Dre? I hope that's it. He was so patient, kind, and made great recommendations. My gf and I are certainly looking forward to returning back asap!! I have a list of folks to return here w to capture this great vegan experience!!

    Vegan Drummies

    Dodah's offers a flavorful take on vegan cuisine, delivering a variety of plant-based alternatives to classic comfort foods. The seasoning and textures of the vegan ribs and drummies were okay. I have ordered them on two different days over the spring break and I could tell that the drummies weren't cooked fresh. The collard greens had a rich, savory taste especially when you add the hot sauce to them. However, the presentation of the meal could use some refinement. The juices from the collard greens spilled over onto the other items, affecting the balance of flavors, saturating the drummies, and overall appeal of the dish. A little more attention to plating and separation would elevate the dining experience. That said, if you're looking for hearty, soulful vegan eats, Dodah's can still deliver...

    This is my second time here, walking in, it's quiet and nice to sit and eat in. The service was very nice although the gentleman who helped me had trouble understanding me - do to a language barrier. I got plantain chips and fried oysters. The food tasted so bland. The plantain tasted like the "oysters" and vice versa. Zero flavor. The oysters came with no dipping sauce.. the best thing was the Colada Moss juice I got. The restaurant is super expensive compared to other vegan places that actually have good food. I spent abt $30. The juice alone was 11! I won't be back. Idk how these reviews are what they are in terms of taste with this place. Save your money. Sorry I threw away the oysters but just picture the darker than the plantains.

    Fried chicken , rice and peas, collards

    Omg this place is so good. Vegan food done just right! I'll definitely be back to try more

    So chill and relaxed

    My friends told me about this place, so came here for lunch one day. As soon as you walk in, you enter an amazing vibe. The space is gorgeous with great decor and ambience. All the food is already made, so you don't have to wait for your food. Super fast! You can see all the options available and then place your order. The food was unreal! Everything is vegan, but like the chicken drumsticks and BBQ ribs tastes so realistic. It's actually mind blowing. My only "complaint" is that the day I went, the music was blasting. It was hard to have a conversation with others in the table. I know they're going for an awesome vibe, but it says something when the staff can't even hear me when placing my order. Just needs the volume decreased a little bit.

    Lemon cupcake - some icing came off in the packaging
    Anna S.

    Oh, Miss. Dodah! How I have missed your cooking. I was craving something healthy yet filling for lunch and Dodah's Kitchen did not disappoint. I ordered my normal entree with two sides and chose garlic kale salad, sweet potato fries, and "chicken" drummies for my selections. What I got was a beautiful heaping pile of fresh kale, gorgeously crispy sweet potatoes of an equally generous serving size, and three thick and crispy fried "chicken" drummies. I also ordered the lemon cake which surprisingly came in cupcake form this time around! It was a little awkward to eat because this cupcake was so dang plump, especially with the layer of thick icing on top, but I was still very very happy with it. Vegans, non-vegans, whoever you are and whatever you like - try Dodah's. You will not regret it!

    Rice and beans , garlic kale and General Tso's Cauliflower
    Melody M.

    Visited for lunch today. Service was very pleasant and space beautiful. Only one person in when I visited. Waited about 10 minutes for fresh Gen Tso's Cauliflower and got rice and beans and garlic kale to go with it. Garlic kale is AMAZING. Beans and rice ok. Not really any taste to it. The cauliflower was good and kinda crispy. Could have had more sauce. Everything all together was verrrry good. The portions were large enough for lunch and dinner and then some. I would def revisit but ask for crispier cauliflower with more sauce. The place is set up as a buffet so you can see everything prior to ordering. They had a lot of offerings but it was not clear what anything was except the kale because it wasn't labeled. Menu large and displayed overhead and ginger lemonade was amazing. Def worth a revisit.

    Peppersteak w/ Collard Greens & Chickpea Salad + Cassava Coconut Cake
    Dana S.

    Vegan soul food! Soul food and especially vegetarian soul food is a little hard to find where I'm from so I was really excited to have the chance to try some in Baltimore and I feel like my eyes have been opened to how good this food can be! This is a no-frills operation: counter service and takeout containers only, with a small amount of seating if you want to dine in. The food was more expensive than I was expecting but also higher quality than I was expecting, and they do give you a generous serving. The guy working the front was super nice! I tried the peppersteak over rice with the collard greens and chickpea salad sides. I was pleasantly surprised by how flavourful everything was! The vegan "steak" had a really nice texture, and for me struck the right balance of being tender and having the right flavour for the dish but not so meat-like that you would mistake it for actual steak. The collard greens were simple but prepared well. I loved the hot peppers in the chickpea salad - the slight kick set it apart from other versions of chickpea salad I've tried. Even the rice and beans that accompanied the entree were really tasty. The fact that the food is ready-made doesn't take away from the quality since a lot of it is stuff that benefits from being allowed to sit to let flavour develop, and as a bonus this means service is very fast! They also have a wide selection of cakes, cupcakes, and (vegan) cheesecakes for dessert. I had a piece of cassava coconut cake. The texture of the cake was really nice with lots of big coconut shreds and I liked that it was flavourful but not super sweet. All in all this was a very good introduction to soul food!

    Fried shrimp, kale salad, seafood mac and cheese.
    Felicia S.

    This place is a vegan dream come true! I'm only in town for a couple days and everything looked good, so I was pleased they offer free samples of the prepared foods on the line. I loved the carrot tuna and the Kung pao cauliflower. The pepper steak had a taste and texture that surprised me by how much it's like beef. Ultimately I settled on the fried "shrimp" with two sides: seafood mac and cheese and the garlic kale salad. The shrimp were prepared fresh and were formed into shrimp-looking pieces, down to the little orange/pink band on natural shrimp. The texture was shockingly like shrimp. I got 3 sauces to dip into, all house-made: hot sauce, "honey" mustard (made with agave), and a sweet and spicy BBQ sauce. The seafood mac and cheese had a great flavor of seafood and a creamy, dreamy texture everyone loves in mac and cheese. For my second side I went with the kale salad at the suggestion of one of the employees even though I don't always love kale salad. This was prepared perfectly, with the kale not woody at all. The dressing had the perfect garlic bite to it, and although to my taste the dressing was a little on the oily side, I don't make my dressings with oil at home or in my cookbooks, so that's more of my personal preference. Finally I decided to buy a dessert and bring it back to my hotel to enjoy. As another employee told me, the restaurant started out as a bakery, so dessert was a must, right?! I went with the strawberry cheesecake, again at the suggestion of the staff. And WOW! Delicious! It was the perfect ending to a perfect vegan meal. I only wish I could visit this city more often to eat here again aha again!

It's within the Johns Hopkins college campus & a neighborhood, so parking is really horrible. I ended up parking in a non spot and putting my hazards on. It's a cute little, but spacious place located next to an airport building. It's on the corner and has a nice little outside seating area with about 5 tables. Inside is bigger than it looks and has a nice amount of seating as well. Since my time was limited, I didn't really get to explore the menu like I wanted, so I ordered a hazelnut latte and a ham & cheese croissant. Their croissants looked so good, I wanted one of each. They also had several toasts on their menu. I'll have to go back for sure! Th service was regular, you order, they tell you how much you owe and you pay. I got in my car and couldn't wait. My first bite was like a bite into heaven. Every bite was the same way, so delicious & delicate. I wish I had two. The latte was perfect, just the right amount of hazelnut. Kanom Cafe is a must try!

The vibe inside was relaxing. We were here for a few hours enjoying our coffee, tea and desserts and it was a nice place to pass the time on a cold, freezing day. The thing that dropped the review was basically the coffee and desserts. The coffee was fine, but just your standard coffee that you'd find at any gas station. The cannoli was overly sweet and the cookies we ordered felt stale. Interestingly, they charge more for sit down desserts vs. takeout. The servers were very sweet to share that we could order takeout and not have to pay the extra fee. Finally, not sure why, but there was not a lot of heating inside the restaurant. We ate with our jackets on, which was fine. But found that to be a little odd. Nobody seemed to know why they couldn't get the heat on. When it's below freezing, it would be nice to escape the chill. Overall, it was a nice stop. My kids loved it. But it was not without some quirks.

I asked if it could be sliced like the white bread loaf can but I was informed that the classic sourdough loaf is too large to fit in the slicer. I also love the fact that they offer a pay what you can program and a pay it forward option. And judging by their fundraising for important causes, this is a business I will continue to support. For $7, I thought it was a great deal for such a large and beautiful loaf. It froze and reheated very well too so none of it went bad.
