Happy to have them in town! - Edit
I love having a choice of vegan local restaurants. The prices are a bit better here than the other Bmore spot and you get more food. However, I found that the food could have used a bit more seasoning. I did want to attend the Vegan Drinks that they hosted, but never received word back from the restaurant as to whether or not there was still space available. Staff is friendly, but a tad bit unresponsive.
Read moreUPDATE: Had to update this old review of mine. Firstly, the staff is awesome here! Secondly, the food is VERY flavorful. I’ve been back here a number of times since my original review but i just hadn’t updated this. Today was my first time trying the crab cakes in well over a year and they are now PERFECTION! Fried and seasoned like they should be the epitome of Maryland seafood for both veg*ns and omnivores.
Pros: great prices, good food, friendly staff
Cons: Street parking

Great Food - Quick Service - Edit
The BBQ ribs were very flavorful, and the curry chickun was also very good. The rice was spicy and the mac and cheese was great! Both the chocolate and pumpkin cakes were moist and delicious. The staff was very friendly and helpful as it was our first visit to the restaurant. I will definitely return when I'm in the area again!

Hit or Miss - Edit
Tried several things. Honestly, it was just okay. I wouldn't order any of it again, except for the ribs. Those were definitely as good as everyone says. But everything else was just meh. Guess it's not for me.
Read moreMy non-vegan husband, on the other hand, thought everything was very tasty, and has had their food several times now.

Loved the food but not the place :( - Edit
The food was amazing and the stuff was friendly and very pleasant. The place seemed dirty though. Sticky floors and dirty cutlery. Also placing a water canteen for customers to refill bottles would be nice! Minimize on plastic trash being created!
Read morePros: Crab cakes were amazing, Desserts are bomb, Quick service
Cons: Place was a bit dirty and grungy., Too much waste with to go containers , No accesible water for customers

Local Favorite: Vegan Soulfood - Edit
My wife and I eat at Land of Kush often and really enjoy the food. We tend to get food to go as we live nearby. If it's busy, (and it usually is) be prepared to wait 10-15 minutes for your food, but all the food is worth the wait.
Read moreI tend to get the Curry Chickun, mac and cheese and potato salad, but everything is good and my wife has her own favorites and always gets the collard greens.
They also have weekend specials on Friday-Sunday. They do tend to run out of the specials by Sunday afternoon, so be prepared with alternative coices if that's when you get to the restaurant.
If you're vegan and in Baltimore, this restaurant needs to be on your list to visit.

Can't wait to come back! - Edit
Love, love, love the selection of flavorful comfort foods. Menu isn't huge, but everything on it is great. You'll want to try a bit of everything! Also note that, while the restaurant is on the smaller side, they have done a good job of utilizing their space to fit plenty of people dining in without it feeling too crowded inside.

So good! - Edit
We got delivery on a Sunday. So good! I’m a Yankee so had never had collard greens and I loved them! Excellent potato salad, and loved the “ribs” too. Next time we will go to the restaurant 🥰

Get the ribs and the curry! - Edit
We ordered from this place using Uber Eats and weren’t disappointed. Everything was hot, fresh, and delicious. We especially liked the curry and the ribs. Their Mac and Cheese is a little bland, which might be a good choice for the less adventurous diner. But those ribs...I could have eaten three portions.

Ok food, dodgy neighbourhood - Edit
The range of food was great, and the staff were very friendly. I enjoyed the bbq faux ribs. The iced tea was super sweet - I wished I’d asked for straight tea as I did not understand that they would sweeten it so much. The walk from the convention centre was fairly daunting, in the middle of the day.

Ribs and collards go!! - Edit
Ribs not what you'd expect but are incredibly delicious. Collard greens the best I've ever had. Mac and cheese a bit dry and disappointing, but still 5* overall.

Good Crab Cakes - Edit
I was a little disappointed in The Land of Kush, but I will cut them some slack in that we arrived toward the end of the night and the cashier was helpful and tried to help us out.
Read moreWe ordered crab cakes, drummies, and curry chikun. We wanted some kind of rice or bread to go with the curry, but they were out of their rice sides. So they threw in lentil burgers for free, which was nice. I thought the crab cakes were really good, great texture and flavor, although it would have been nice if they were served with roumalade or something. The curry chikun was also good, even without rice (although it seems odd to me that it does not come with rice). The drummies were just vegan chicken tenders, and were very dry. They also did not come with a sauce. The lentil burgers were two patties, no bread or toppings, and came with gravy. Tasted okay, but overall not that great.
I would go back to Land of Cush for the crab cakes, but nothing else really jumped out at me. However, if I was regularly in Baltimore I would probably give them another go. The vegan eggplant parmasan sounds tasty but only served T-TH.
Pros: All vegan, Good crabcakes
Cons: Some items dry with no sauces, No rice for curry, bread for burgers
LandOfKush
Hey there Fondducoeur - we appreciate the feedback! We're so happy that you love our vegan crab cake! By the sound of your experience, a 3-star is definitely modest, however, we'd love to see you again for the full Land of Kush, VeganSoul experience! Anytime you're in Baltimore, we'd love to see you! Have a beautiful day!

Vegan crab cakes a must! - Edit
Don't let the space intimidate you. A bit unkempt, but staff friendly, food is good and served quickly and prices reasonable. The crab cakes were outstanding. The mac n cheese side mediocre, but the collard greens made up for it. Ribs entree was tasty, as were my friend's coconut cabbage side.

Awesome food - Edit
I was in the Baltimore area and checked on happy cow for vegan food and came across the little surprise. I purchased items for me & a coworker. We had the coconut curry cabbage, mac & cheese, collard greens, black bean & lentils dish. For dessert double chocolate cake and peach cobbler. Every thing was delicious, I would say the peach cobbler was ok, need more peaches, however it was still delicious. I will visit again next time in the area.

Food recently changed for the worse - Edit
We used to be obsessed with the Land of Kush, as a Vegan with a non-vegan partner who is allergic to shell fish, we especially enjoyed their award winning “crab” cakes. (And ribs and drummies and breakfast brunch and Mac n cheez, just EVERYTHING was delicious) We are so disappointed that they have changed the food ingredients, the crab cakes and curry “chicken” and Mac n cheese taste totally different and the textures are different as well. At first we thought maybe it was just an off day but we went back a few more times and it seems that the food is on a permanent downgrade from The yumminess that it once was. It seemed like before their food was made from fresher ingredients now it just tastes like mushy, overly processed TVP (textures vegetable protein) and flour. I would bet money that they will not be winning the annual crabcake competition with their new recipe. There really is no point in going there anymore and we are truly heartbroken over this. We find the staff to be Very busy, so not much time for small talk however they are very friendly and kind we have had one customer service problem. There was one employee a few years ago who was very rude to us fortunately another employee observe this apologized and comped our food. We have not seen that rude employee since then.

Wonderful Soul Food - Edit
Do yourself a favor. Get the ribs! They were the star of the show. That and the amazing sides. This was one of the best vegan places I have been. The inside is small, and the wait was a little long. But it was worth it. Staff were always moving, cooking, serving, and cleaning. They took a lot of pride in what they do. Super impressed!

Delicious - Edit
My boyfriend & I stopped in here after a day of hiking. We got the drumsticks, bbq ribs (which were’t really “rib” like, but still delicious), mac & cheese, collard greens and potato salad. Everything was to die for. I even ran back and grabbed a cookies & cream piece of cake. The service was quick and the atmosphere casual/friendly.
