At that time, I was upset about what happened with George Floyd a week earlier; still in 2026, it was wrong what happened to Floyd (not to mention more recent news that happened in that city was horrible too). I hung out with a friend on that warm day having a beer outside his apartment in Takoma Park. He is a mega-leftist politically (I'm more independent), but said he wanted to support a black-owned business; I said that's a good idea; I might do that for dinner. He was doing his own thing for dinner, so I was on my own. So, I looked up on Yelp what was in the area, and I saw just across the border in DC, Oohh's & Aahh's. Staff was nice, and I got a fried chicken platter. As this was Covid times, there was no dine-in. So, I schlepped all the way straight up Georgia Ave 6 miles back to my home in Wheaton fairly quickly on that Sunday as I don't like my food getting cold. I think my food stayed pretty hot as it was well-wrapped, and if it had cooled off, I could always microwave at home. The fried chicken, mac n' cheese (my favorite vegetable...I know not really a veggie but a joke), etc. were all solid. If I was ever over here, I'd consider coming back; just so rare I go to DC these days.

This is a complaint about the food. This more a respect of customers…read more March 30, 2026 To the Owner, I am writing to address an experience my husband and I recently had at your establishment. We came in as paying customers to purchase food, as we have done on prior occasions. While placing our order, a comment was made telling us that we could "go down the street to a church to pick up our food." This statement was made loudly enough for others to hear, and it caused laughter among those present. We did not find this to be humorous. There is no such church nearby, and more importantly, we had not engaged in any conversation or behavior that would invite that kind of remark. Being singled out in that way felt disrespectful and unnecessary. I approached you calmly to ask why that comment was made. Instead of acknowledging it, the situation escalated. You became loud, refunded our money, and asked us to leave, even though we were willing to stay, receive our food, and move forward. As returning customers, we expected to be treated with a basic level of courtesy and respect. This experience did not reflect that. I am sharing this not to create conflict, but to bring awareness to how such interactions can impact customers. Respectful communication matters, and moments like this can determine whether customers choose to return. Sincerely, Mr. and Mrs Mahdi

They also had cider, which ended up being the highlight for me. That said, the food was underwhelming. The fries and mozzarella sticks tasted like the frozen kind that had simply been reheated, and the marinara sauce did not taste fresh. The shrimp tacos were plated nicely, but the shrimp had a gummy texture that missed the mark. The staff was definitely buzzing around, and the service felt a little rushed (they were not busy). Overall, it has a good atmosphere and potential as a casual neighborhood hangout, but the food did not quite deliver for me.

And somehow it was perfectly sticky, crispy, juicy, and flavorful all at the same time. Every bite had me staring into space reevaluating every other chicken place I've ever been to This is the kind of food that makes you immediately start calculating how often you can realistically come back without concern from your family and friends. Because honestly? I could eat here every single day and never get tired of it. Whoever is back there seasoning this chicken deserves financial compensation and a standing ovation

I've been sporadically dining here since 2022 and I'm happy to see that the business is still thriving. I came in recently on a Friday evening and almost all the seats were taken. That didn't stop them from providing great service. I ordered some chicken bites and fries to go and I'd say it took about 5 minutes before my order was ready. Very impressive. By the time I got home my order was still hot and tasted delicious. The crunch, the seasoning .. whatever sauce came with it was all sooo good. I'm definitely looking forward to paying them another visit soon and actually dining in. It feels like a dinner in there with booths and bar seating. Give the a try if you're ever in the Petworth area of DC! Also pictured below is an order that I got a couple of months back. It's their chicken sliders from the kids meal. Soooo good and a great price (like $8 or so)

I love the sweet breakfast options (I've had Ube French Toast and Pancakes in the past) and the savory egg platters that taste great without swimming in oil. I've also had crab torta(?) in the past, which I really enjoyed but haven't seen again since I first came like four years ago. Purple Patch is super popular, so if you don't have a reservation I'd recommend getting there right when it opens. Even about an hour after is okay. The earlier the better, though. I always have gone on a Saturday or Sunday and called beforehand to check if they had room.

Restaurant was bright and welcoming and our waitress was lovely! In order of preference, we got the: Octopus tacos - Outstanding!!! There's a nice smokey char that adds flavor, sauce was fresh, and octopus was easy to bite through. Never had octopus tacos before and these were awesome!! I want to go back for this and to try other things! Huaraches - Bean filled and fried corn underlayer with sautéed steak and cactus on top -- cactus had a sour flavor and a light crunch with just a bit of slime kind of like okra, some folks aren't as into this but I liked it! Scallop tacos - Good sauce and nicely sized scallops. Salmon tacos - Good but did not standout, I'd skip unless you want something safe and it's your go to

After walking in (take-out only), and seeing that there were six people waiting for their food, I was convinced, this place CAN be trusted. So, staff, really nice. Informative, hospitable, and accommodating. As indicated, exclusively "Take-out," so not much attention given to aesthetics. All those waiting raved about the food. People there have been patronizing the restaurant for decades. Again, very good sign. Ordered chitterlings, potato salad, and collard greens. Initially thought $30.00 was a bit much, given I'd NEVER eaten chitterlings "out," BUT, thought about what it actually requires, and quickly changed my mind. The price point is fine. Everything was delicious. Everything. Including the Cornbread. Given I know how to cook, there were obviously some things I would have done differently. That doesn't even matter, this place is my "Soul Food" "go-to." If they can do chitterlings well, they can do anything. I can't wait to try everything else on the menu. I highly recommend.
