Customer Reviews
Really enjoyed the food here. Lots of vegetarian options. Food prices are good. Most dishes were well seasoned and flavorful. They do have many 3rd party vendors. Did find a hair in my banana pudding but that was from a 3rd party so I will not penalized the restaurant. Will come back but avoid the dessert. Staff is so nice and attentive.
I really dislike writing negative reviews, but I want to share my experience so others know what to expect before ordering. I recently tried New Deal Cafe and unfortunately the meal was extremely disappointing. Here’s what I ordered: Jackfruit Tacos: Almost no flavor at all. Very bland and lacked seasoning. Black Beans and Rice: Also had no flavor. The beans tasted like they came straight out of a can and the rice seemed completely unseasoned. Honey-Glazed Salmon: There was no noticeable honey flavor, and it was served with plain yellow rice that was also unseasoned. Mixed Vegetables: Carrots, broccoli, and cauliflower that were very hard and tasted like frozen vegetables that weren’t prepared properly. I was actually interested in returning to try their breakfast options, but after
I am happy we got to head to this delicious place! I have been a handful of times but hadn't really had the chance to sit and enjoy the space or the live music! It was great. This place has my fave TOP 3 pasta and it's my go-to whenever I'm in the area now. I love how authentic the people, music, crowd, and ambiance is. Old school Greenbelt is really comforting, hippieville, and lots of nostalgia that anyone can get to love. Nothing beats that! Cheers to my bestie who came to catch up and celebrate and we both had gifts 🎁 to give! I'm super happy she decided to catch up and celebrate my belated birthday. This was super fun 🥹👏🏾💯! If you love laughs, authentic food, having a good time, and all in Greenbelt supporting the community you'll love this restaurant. Stop by, rate, and repeat 😎.
Loved visiting for the live music with Low Rent Quartet!! The band is amazing!! They should be there much more often, not just once a month. Awesome venue! Great atmosphere!
Plenty of character. Worth a visit before the movie! 09/12/25 Update A return visit 7 years later! Good attentive service, but please cheer up folks! My wife and I both had pasta. Salmon and Chicken versions. Both very good and seemed freshly cooked. My chicken seemed to me to be a nice mild Cajun style with sun dried tomato. Chicken may have been marinated? Not hot or spicy. Recommended.
