David Brahler: Get the brisket, lamb belly, sticky ribs, collard greens, Mac and cheese, and beans.
Cliktrips (Jen Amadio): Try the brisket sandwich, corn, collard greens and beans. They also have pitchers of beer.
Kash Guha: Everything is good here, I particularly liked the ribs, brisket, and collard greens. Their sauce is amazing!
Evan: Ribs, FTW! Hella good collards, too. If you're staying, order the brisket, but 86 it if you're doing a takeout operation. Brisket doesn't travel well, no matter how you slice it.

Noah Zerkin: Go to Choice and get the lamb sandwich, an order of collard greens, and/or a beet salad.
Sydney Silvera: Blt petty much lives up to the hype. They don't skimp on the b which is the most important quality of a good blt for me. curry sweet potato soup and vegetarian collards were both pretty lack luster.
Kimberly Hogg: The salmon sandwich w the mango salsa is delicious. The vegan collard greens and the green beans are also really good.
Serious Eats: The Veg Combo piles include beets, red lentils, yellow split peas, cabbage, gomen (collards cooked with garlic and onion) and shiro (ground and spiced chickpeas) sitting atop injera (flatbread).
Ashley Zeldin: The special kitfo (ground steak tartare in seasoned butter) really is special, mixed w jalapeño = extra kick. Recommend missir (red lentils) & gomen (collard greens). Milka was delightful & attentive.
Kelley O. Williams: Great food, but super stingy on the injera! What's that about?
