About

This Smithsonian cafeteria serves regional African-American fare across separate food lines, with collard greens, sweet potatoes, and other sides forming the main vegan meal on many visits. A reviewer reported a satisfying tofu bowl, but selection can vary; prices can add up when trays are filled, and service and food quality have drawn mixed reviews.
