My man and I decided to take an afternoon spin over to his old neighborhood in Dorchester to pick up Oasis VVP takeout yesterday to enjoy outside. He's been a vegetarian for nearly a year now, and I'm following close behind on that health journey. We ordered the Oshun wrap, African Pot bowl, plus the Mango Moon and Blueberry Bash juices. We devoured each of our halves of the wrap with gooey, vegan cheese, seasoned kale and curry chickpea stew. We couldn't finish the bowl, which filled an entire large square takeout container. The spice of the lentil stew was absolute perfection on top of the fluffy, yellow couscous mixed with more kale and red cabbage. Needless to say we polished off the leftovers today. We both preferred the mango moon juice, mainly because of the can't go wrong mixture of turmeric, cinnamon, and agave with more of the consistency of a smoothie. The blueberry and banana juice didn't go unnoticed either, if you're a fan of those flavors. There will no doubt be many return visits from us to try out the rest...
Read moreDecent tasting drink that was overpriced and that I also waited some time for. Not the most welcoming atmosphere. Seems small to none in regards to items offered on the menu. Although I did not order food, I witnessed a customer who placed an order arrive only for the business to tell the customer that they did not have what she ordered. The "peace" and "blessings" vibe that they want to display doesn't seem genuine with custumers, or particular customers. Seems to be a common theme with most Boston-based Caribbean establishments along with sloowwww and pricey service.
I don't usually write reviews, but my goal is to help businesses, especially Black-owned, take into consideration ways on improving in the urban community AND I also put hard earned money and time into supporting their business, so I feel privileged in sharing...
Read moreThe food is really good. The employees and business owners are very kind. This is not a fast food restaurant so be prepared to wait 10 to 15 minutes for your name to be called to grab your clean brown paper bag (with sturdy handles)😍. In my opinion, this small vegan parlor is a great addition to the updated Four Corners location. 👍 Truly. Oasis has such a good neighborhood/inviting community "get together" vibe due to the clientele that it tends to attract. It's always a friendly experience... Plus the music makes you want to dance your best afrobeat moves while waiting for your favorite vegan dish of the day... Tho there is likely to be a bit of a wait- I shall return to this place, soon. 😊 P.s. The coconut lentils are a must!...
