Restaurants in Washington

“I love this place! The food is phenomenal! I can’t get over the tempeh burger!!!”

“Amazing! The staff was welcoming from the moment you walk in the door!! And the..Food was globally inspired with a twist, and beautifully displayed. Truly felt like a gift to stumble upon this establishment!!”

“I enjoyed the green zone, it had me flying high. Flying high when I tried their coffee drink. There was so much in it I don’t even know what to call it, but look at the picture, it looks delicious. I payed a pretty penny for it too, but pennies I got. This place cost a lot of green so bring your wallet, credit card too. Have fun, it’s good (at least their coffee drink is).”

“A thoughtful shared plates experience. We followed the wise recommendations of our server and were rewarded. Nice spot. Excellent yet not pretentious.”

“Must have the Mochi fantastic”

“Our waiter, Caleb, was attentive and knowledgeable. The food was delicious and the dishes were interesting and unique. We were a party of 7, sat outside and really enjoyed ourselves. The pacing of all the dishes coming out was perfect. The only downside was that there was a man with a really large dog seated right next to us and the dog barked and whined (so loudly we could not hear each other) and it smacked into our chairs repeatedly. Once the man left things improved and we had a great experience.”

“The food is wonderful. We always eat here when we come up from Richmond, VA. The staff is great as well.”

“This is the best restaurant in DC and michael rafidi is the best chef there is! The food is always excellent, the service is exceptional and it is our go to restaurant when we have friends or family in town. Highly recommend!”

“Fun night for two out of towners! Food was amazing and the staff were incredibly friendly, even though we’re two or three times their ages and not cool at all! ;)”

“Delicious brunch and excellent service!”

“Great food and excellent service. John was fantastic. 100% recommend”

“Exquisite food paired with excellent service. To start, our server Monique was phenomenal, radiant and one of the best servers I have encountered in my dining experience. What a blessing for Moon Rabbit to have such a phenomenal service/front of house team!

We sampled quite a few different courses on a very well crafted and diverse menu. “From the Earth” we tried the Crispy Mountain salad which was flavorful and refreshing in between our heavier courses, “From the Sea” we had the sweet potato & crab as well as the Mochi Beignet which brought unique flavors with bold combinations. The options “From the Land” we had both the rabbit and the pork - both which were rich but not overly heavy, a very well curated combination of flavors that worked well together in each dish. The deserts were divine, I usually do not like sweets as I lack a sweet tooth however the deserts at Moon Rabbit are light and refreshing! We had both the Curry and Apple deserts - I’d highly recommend both!

I also had the best mocktails I have ever had in my life - I highly recommend the Jade to anyone seeking a slightly tart, mildly sweet, well balanced non alcoholic beverage to pair with these divine courses.

Of course a huge thank you to Moon Rabbit for curating a unique and affordable dining experience!”

“Great food great service!”

“I stopped in with friends before a event Sunday evening. The staff was warm and welcoming. I had the lentil sambusas and a peanut-infused coffee at the staff’s recommendation. The food was fast and delicious- the sambusas were warm and spicy, and the peanut coffee was delicious! In a kind gesture, the chef sent over a sampling of sushi to our table. Fresh and refreshing, the sushi was a nice complement to my sambusas and hot beverage. I’m not on this side of town often, but now I have a reason to come back.”

“Such a fun experience during our trip to DC. All the items we choose were outstanding and different . It was the highlight of our rainy day .”

“Hands down the BEST bar in DC!! I’ve seen great reviews online, but the experience was even better than imagined. The place is cozy and intimate. When you walk in you immediately feel like you’re being welcomed into someone’s home. The aesthetic, the playlists 1110/10. The staff are all beyond kind and friendly. Danny immediately made us feel at home as he explained the personal story and flavors behind each drink. I cannot say enough about how great the ambience, service and drinks 110000/10. The baked Alaska is a MUST TRY. I’ve never had anything like it before and cannot describe how priceless of an experience it was. Also, you can ask for a little gato on your drink and take it home for a small adoption fee!! Can’t wait to go back again!!”

“Best Ramen I've ever eaten”

“Great ambiance, food and vibe”

“Amazing! The sushi tasting menu was exceptional and filling! Delicious and whimsical cocktails. Bar in the back, very hip and chic workout being pretentious. Wagyu beef skewers from the bar was one of the best things I’ve ever had. All the skewers were amazing and the fried chicken and other bar snacks are classic bar foods, but way elevated- can not wait for the rest of the space to open!”

“Overall five stars for the service. We made a mistake with the original reservation and they were so kind in accommodating us. Generally, everyone was so professional and kind.

We did the tasting menu along with the sake pairing. Overall, the food was solid but it seemed a little pricey for the quality we got. A few dishes did blow us away: the fish and chips with the vinegar sauce, the shabu shabu, the gizzard chad, and the fish cake. The sake pairing generally worked, but the one that came with the nigiri seemed more like a palette cleanser than a pairing.

Also, shoutout to Alan our server who was kind, thoughtful, and even ran after us when we left something. We really appreciated his knowledge about the food and his service. All the service made our night exceptional and memorable - hence the five stars overall.”

“Hubby took me here to celebrate our anniversary. The service, food and atmosphere was great. It was so good I didn't get a picture of our main dish lol. Will definitely visit again.”

“The Tacos and clam chowder was really good. The frozen Rose’ was good as well. Great service”

“Have eaten here 4 of 5 days visiting DC. Fantastic food and great service. Highly recommend!”

“All of my experiences at L’Ardente have been phenomenal. The food, the atmosphere, and the service are all top notch!!!”

“From the cocktails to the service…our experience was top notch all around! Highly recommend!”

“I had an amazing experience hosting a large party at El Techo. The owner and team were great! As were the food, drinks, ambiance and service. 10/10, I would recommend this place to anyone”

“Friendly staff and excellent techniques. One of the experiences I’ve had. Great to come here. Feeling relax. Highly recommend. Very grateful. Tasty food”

“I think Old Ebbitt Grill are one of the best grill joints around Washington and they got the most warmed atmosphere and I also enjoyed their service a lot. Their waitress and waiters are well trained with great sense of humor and they always smile to their customers/buyers.. You all can give it a try and thank me later hehe 😜”

“Always a DC favorite for hosting and client dinners — your team consistently creates a great experience.”

“Brunch is amazing. Bottomless margaritas and the churros are excellent!”

“Highly recommend,… great food and fun atmosphere.”

“It’s a nice place to have some comfort food it all hours of the day and night”

“RUN, DON'T WALK to Just AJs Veenies. They're at pretty much all the DC farmers markets, and they're absolutely delicious. They are DC's best kept secret, and these shouldn't be a secret. Their food is honestly the best in town, next to Fancy Radish. Vegan or nonvegan, AJs Veenies are a must eat.”

“It was great! Friendly staff and great food ! This will be a stop EVERY time we come back to DC! 10 out of 10 recommended”

“I really appreciate this location service my meal was correct portion specifically mini chalupa with fajitas vegetables taste really good and I would like to come back again, impressive customer service whenever I come here I got good service if though very busy store but I like co me enjoy my food here. Yummy yummy food.”

“Dennis was our server, and he was engaging and very professional. I had the over 55 breakfast which consisted of cheddar scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, and 2 pancakes. Hot and tasty. And the 70's music was great.”

“love there pizza and you cant get unlimited toppings”

“This particular store has been in the neighborhood for a long time so this store will need to upgrade the heating system the cooling system maybe it just like I said it needs to be gutted out and remodeled and maybe bigger and better parking lot for them as well because I see cars getting scraped up and everything like that when I'm and I'm coming out the parking lot”

“Absolutely amazing experience at this Subway! The staff is always friendly, the restaurant is clean, and their attention to detail really stands out. Customer service is top tier — they even know me and my child by name, which makes every visit feel welcoming and personal. Truly appreciate the kindness and consistency every time we come in! Alam and all the staff are the best!”

“I cannot praise this place highly enough. Coming from out of state for college, I didn’t know what a Wawa was, but I absolutely love it now. Food is great and the people are greater, always going above and beyond to provide stellar service! Thanks, Wawa, for making the transition to DC a little easier!!!! As for the bad reviews, it’s just because it’s down the street from a high school, so of course it gets busy and chaotic during the start and end of the school day.”

“Love the breakfast sandwich. Bear claw is my favorite pastry.”

“There's a lot of bad reviews so I'm gonna offer my 2 cents: y'all it's Taco Bell. When it's late, they're on of the (if not only) place open. This is a terrible place to door dash. Just use the app and walk down. It has a street pick up window.

The employees can be rude bc it's fast food and customers are utterly ferrel. That's how this works.

To reiterate: it's just Taco Bell. If you are local and just want to pick up food, it works. If your expectations are higher, don't go to Taco Bell.”

“This subway is the best subway! The atmosphere is the very best and the gentleman here are amazingly friendly and funny 😄 and make it fun to come here. They work very hard and treat everyone kindly . So many people treat them horribly and talk to them any kind of way . This is not right! These men are only working hard like the rest of us . They have families and loved ones too that care and love them! So be kind to them! You never treat those badly who make your food ! Be respectful! Come here and enjoy the freshest food always ! Their produce is always so delicious and never soggy or expired! The place is very clean and well organized!!! Thank you gentleman for you hard work ! As a loyal customer I appreciate you so much and I know that you all will too 😍😘”

“I come here all the time a couple times a week. The staff is really friendly and the food is good and hot. I never have to wait long for my food at all.”

“I love this macdonald, I always come with my friends. The girl Ariana cleaned our table and was super nice and very cheerful, they need more staff like her! My 10 ⭐️⭐️”

“Nice wine pair with mussels. Reasonable pricing.”

“very tasty Ethiopian dishes and very good atmosphere also excellent services!!!!”

“Agora DC made my husband’s surprise birthday dinner party one to remember! From the superior customer service and professionalism of their special events management team, including Tsednia Abay, to the Michelin Star-worthy food and service, no detail was left untouched. Thank you to your entire team!😍”

“Had such a lovely dinner- Michael, our server, was an absolute gem. So kind, warm, fun, and knowledgeable. He gave us the perfect recommendations- we especially enjoyed the garlic knots and rigatoni. Our night was made so special at Reveler’s Hour!”

“Great waiter- delicious food, unique and cooked perfect! Music and vibes were very very fun!!!”

“7/17/26: After an awkward start with an unfriendly bartender, everything turned out great. I had the Old Saigon. The chicken was well-seasoned, moist, and tender. It was a very satisfying sandwich.”

“Finding a Filipino restaurant isn’t easy. So learning about Purple Patch thru Jo Koy—has ended this search! Literally, Filipino cuisine heaven! The restaurant is uniquely decorated, the staff were friendly, & the food hit that major comfort button for us! Thank you Zahara for being so sweet & a wonderful waitress. We can’t wait to come back for more!”

“An amazing dining experience!”

“Amazing dinner!! Every course was delicious!”

“Minibar went above and beyond our expectations. Due to health issues, we cannot drink alcohol and they curated special nonalcoholic drinks that paired perfectly with the exceptionally creative food!”

“Incredible experience. Will be returning.”

“Great evening at Anju with work colleagues. The food was exceptional , full of flavor and beautifully done. As chefs ourselves, we were all impressed. Service was warm and smooth throughout. Thanks to Chef for coming by and explaining his dishes ., A great personal touch. Highly recommend.”

“Massive selection of beers on tap including cask ales and the friendliest bar staff! Thanks 😊”

“Amazing dishes. Chive cakes, marigold, Laos wine, the butterfly and hummingbird were delicious. The presentation on the pla tong ma was almost as good as the flavor. Aim helped us choose our dishes and provided excellent service.”

“Excellent food and atmosphere. The bartenders were also super chill and make really creative drinks. Recommend the honey wine!”

“Elegant setting. Beautiful decor. Stellar service. Innovative and delectable cuisine. Bonus points for mocktail options.”

“It was fabulous! I loved how much thought went into the meal and the whole place showed the care and love behind the creations. The food and service were spectacular!”

“Exquisite food and drink!”

“One of the best sushi experiences we’ve had on the East Coast. The Omakase was exceptional and absolutely worth every penny. A must‑try is The Heaven sake — incredibly smooth, crisp, and perfectly paired with the meal.

We celebrated my brother’s birthday here, and the entire family is still talking about how amazing everything was. Highly recommend!”

“Superlative tasting menu, top notch wine parings, outstanding service, from a staff that outnumbers the clientele, what’s not to like? Yes it’s small, so leave the soccer team meetup for the pizza place. For Lutece, bring your favorite couple or 1 or 2 very special friends”

“Came here for a friend’s birthday.
Good food, nice service, and a beautiful space. It feels a little pretentious, though. I’ve been to Michelin-starred restaurants that took themselves less seriously. Still, overall good vibes and an enjoyable evening.”

“#AmazingRestaurant #LeSelRestaurant 🥰”

“5 stars isn't enough!! From the moment we walked in until the end of our night we were satisfied. The decorations, food, and service was amazing! They even offered me a quiet place to pray :). Give this place a try-trust me (portions may seem small, but it was very filling- we ordered the bowl of fries, which came with a delicious sauce, CROQUETTES, fish burger, beef burger, and gnocchi pomodoro. It felt like we were in nyc enjoy :)”

“Went to Kitchen +Kocktails for the first time last night. The decor was very nice, and the music was good and not obnoxious. Our server Ally was terrific! I’m not a drinker, so when I asked her if there were any cocktails that didn’t taste like alcohol, I thought she would look at me like I was crazy, but she didn’t! She seemed to know exactly what I was talking about and immediately had a couple of suggestions. I went with the mixed berry lemon drop and it was perfect for me. The crab cake appetizers and shrimp and grits with lobster tail entree were amazing. We had a great time and we’ll be back!”

“Best dogs and you will not meet a more pleasant and thoughtful person than Sami.”

“If you are coming here with a decent sized part of people, I would highly recommend going with something from the Chef's Menu so you can try a little of everything. You'd be happy you did, and you definitely won't leave hungry.
Myself and four others went here for dinner on a Sunday night and it was phenomenal!
Phoebe did a fantastic job answering our questions about the menu and providing recommendations. When we all decided to do The Classics on the Chef's Menu, Phoebe made sure our wants and needs were addressed, and her and the kitchen provided the most incredible selection of tapas. If my memory serves, we received about 5 or 6 different tapas and two paellas. Then, at the end, the churros were included in the cost.
Overall, the value, quality, and service were all superior and when we're in DC again, we will be back.”

“This place is MOST AWESOMENESS! A definite must come eat!”

“Had a great experience. I would definitely come back next time we are in DC.”

“Exceptional throughout from the rooms to dining to sophisticated and attentive staff - thank you for having us.”

“We had an early dinner before attending a performance at the Ford’s Theater. We made reservations through Open Table and were immediately seated upon arrival. The service was great. Our server recommended several dishes that we loved. There were abundant vegan and vegetarian options. Chilorio de Res tacos were mouthwatering as were the Hongos en Milto ones. In fact, every dish we ordered was delicious. One dish (chilaquiles) never arrived from the kitchen but we were pressed for time so we opted to have it taken off our bill instead of waiting for them to prepare it separately. Dessert, Cafe de Olla, was phenomenal. Pics are only some of the items we tried. Great atmosphere for date night and a milestone birthday celebration. Highly recommend.”

“These guys are stellar, love the concept and the commitment. I written previously about the “heaviness” you can get at a top-end set menu place. FINALLY got the opposite, light, daring, and genuinely surprising.

Advice - do the juice paring. The apricot and chanterelle juice was something we kept talking about and was so perfect. This sets a new bar of excellence for us far beyond simple wine parings.

Really appreciate the details and our primary server, Jack, was wonderful. Local and very fresh celebration of ingredients. Marigold “butter” again, just bonkers and sets a new apotheosis for the kind of subtle innovation I really appreciate.”

“Loved our visit and such a dining experience! You have to try it!! Cheers y’all”

“Great food, wines and service.”

“Compliments to the Chef. The Michelin star is so deserved. The setting in pics seems strange but please trust the staff and the kitchen, EAT HERE. We Loved it. Try the Marrow starter and if you are from IRL or the UK the beans and pork belly is next level. BRAVO”

“A friend recommended this restaurant and the waiter was very helpful in choosing our appetizers and meals, and also provided excellent wine pairings. We even had a little chat with the other guests”

“Amazing meal. The food and service were top notch. Service friendly and professional. Beautiful restaurant. Excellent wine list. Host John insured that all went well. All 8 of us greatly enjoyed the experience!”

“Delicious neighborhood haunt.”

“Best sushi restaurant me and my family have ever been to. Our server, Jay made our experience even better with his service that went above expectations. They also gave complimentary matcha ice cream for our birthdays that was insanely good.”

“One of the best places in Dc and right on the water!”

“In my 50 yrs of living on this earth, and have traveled abroad and tried many different places…my experience at The Dabney has been by far the best I’ve experienced. Everyone from host to chefs made me feel like a star. The bar staff, servers, the atmosphere, and the chefs!!! Top tier and would highly recommend!!! Not only was the service excellent…talk about hospitality on a 100! But the FOOD!!! I mean I would’ve been a happy camper just on the drinks from the bar (gotta try the FORWARD drink!! Whew!) and the service alone, but the FOOD?! We were treated to a five course, and every single bite, morsel that I tasted sent every bit of my taste buds to heaven!! I consider myself a picky eater but none of that mattered. If you’re a connoisseur of fine dining…you CANNOT miss THE DABNEY! I salute the CHEFS!!”

“Unreal 5 star arrive and food . I agree Michelin for sure”

“I do not understand the reviews calling the food bland. It was PACKED with flavor and everything was cooked to perfection! Absolutely worth every penny. Highlights were the Duck Vindaloo, Muscles, Smoked Lentils, and Nargasi Kofta.”

“I recently visited this Japanese restaurant and had an absolutely amazing dining experience. The sushi was incredibly fresh, beautifully presented, and full of authentic flavor. I also tried the ramen and tempura, and both dishes were prepared perfectly with high-quality ingredients. The atmosphere was calm, elegant, and welcoming, making it a perfect place to relax and enjoy a meal. The staff members were attentive, polite, and provided excellent customer service throughout the visit.”

“We enjoyed our evening. It was raining and a Saturday in Memorial weekend and were able to get a reservation late afternoon for 7:30pm which usually unusual in DC. The cocktails were all superb including the mezcal cocktail, the gin cocktail, and the sangria. Definitely the best part. We did not order wine.
We ordered all vegetarian appetizers including the hummus(3/5 star), salad(4/5 star), carrots(4/5 star), tomatoe toast(4/5), Patatas bravas(5/5 star), entree roasted Cauliflower(4/5 star) and the vegetarian Paella(2/5 star as had too much beets and sweetness), flan(5/5 star), churros(4/5 star). It was a little dark and there were not many people this evening which was surprising. We enjoyed dinner for the five of us and was enjoyable. We parked in the Ritz colonial garage and received another ticket when leaving and parking was $10. Do not understand why they can’t comp us. It was pleasant but not out of world but I as enjoyable as healthy food with some good flavors. It was as about $90 a person total including tip reasonable for everyone who had a cocktail, apps, entrees and dessert in upscale DC restaurant. I would recommend a try as if ate fish or meat may be slightly better.”

“Mita is a really wonderful small course vegan restaurant. The courses were varied and interesting and all excellent. I'm having a hard time picking my favorite but the various breads and dipping sauces were amazing. A really fun place to go for special occasions.”

“I'm from Texas and have been dying to find a breakfast taco spot. I might as well have been in my mom's kitchen, eating tacos on a Sunday morning. that's how amazing La Tejana tacos are!”

“This my first time here and it was probably one of the best experience I’ve ever had at a bar in DC . I’ll definitely be back for my birthday next week. Love the atmosphere”

“Go. Now. If it’s closed, just wait outside til it opens and thank me later. I CANNOT recommend them higher. The food was absolutely phenomenal. Portion sizes that can feed 2-3 people. Ridiculously delicious food. Great prices… and most outstanding THE SERVICE! The lady running the place was quite simply one of the kindest sweetest souls you’ll ever meet, took care of us like we were part of the family and honestly was just incredible.”

“Absolutely incredible food. Our Lyft driver recommended we try it, now I'm sad we live 4 hours away from some of the best pizza I've ever had.”

“great food and service nice spot”

“Great place. Wish they would open a 2nd place at Liberty Exchange in Sykesville - 2 units still open for a nice coffee place (that isn’t Starbucks!) one is right next to Basta Pasta!!”

“This place SLAPS!!! Burgers are beyond amazing, fry portions are HUGE and the house suace is out of this fricken world. Friendly employees and the simple atmosphere was perfect. Don't pass this place up!!”

“I ordered pizza from Georgetown location by uber and bottom of pizza was burnt. I had to throw away. Today, I just picked up 2 pies and asked Dell make sure bottom is not burnt. Kiara was so friendly and checked both pizzas make sure it’s not burnt. DELL AND KIARA WERE SO FRIENDLY!!! Definitely coming back to this location!!”

“Incredible vibes!
Bartender was an absolute chief throughout the night, and the karaoke hostess (kj) kept the energy up!

We absolutely loved the concept of costumed karaoke, it adds another layer of slumber party chaos to the night. People were very friendly and participated actively in the spectacle.

We will be back on Thursdays and Saturdays!!”

“Incredible food, made me feel like I was back in Africa! Maybe the best Ethiopian food I’ve had in America! Excellent prices too! I recommend the quanta firfir which is a very rare find in Ethiopian restaurants here in the states.”

“We had a great lunch! Highly recommended! 😋😋😋”

“I love this place with all my heart.”

“Love to join them again”

“No other bakery like Seylou. We travel in to the city every weekend to eat here. The staff is so kind and feels like an extension of our family. They’ve taken my child behind the scenes and shown him how grains are killed and bread is baked. I could not ask for a better community and diet staple.”

“Phenomenal. The blueberry lemonade is the best flavored lemonade I’ve had in DC in my 4
years of living here. Got two empanadas for $10 and both were really good.”

“I spent a couple hours here because my flight was delayed. The staff was very friendly and helpful. My Cosmos were perfectly pink. (If they’re clear and red they’re not made correctly) and only $6 during Happy Hour. I’m not a big fan of Mexican food, Cosmos I ordered the Bora Bora marinated chicken without the tortilla over rice. It was delicious! The chicken was so tender and tasty and all the flavors were wonderful. I also enjoyed watching the surfers on TV,. The waves relaxed me instead being stressed out over a delayed flight. Definitely recommend this place for its casual atmosphere and good food. Even if you don’t like Mexican!”

“Never thought to stop in until now--after five years in Woodley Park, we've found our spot for weekend brunch/buffet!”

“Our experience at the Occidental last night was nothing short of extraordinary. From start to finish, every detail was executed with perfection. The menu showcased incredible range and creativity — the twin lobster tails were tender and sweet, the steak tartare was beautifully balanced, and the smoked pheasant under glass was a showstopper both in flavor and presentation. Each dish felt carefully crafted and elevated, yet approachable. The wine list was equally impressive — clearly curated with thought and depth, offering the perfect pairings to complement the meal without ever feeling overwhelming. Service was another highlight. Warm, attentive, and genuinely inviting, the staff struck that rare balance of professionalism without a hint of stuffiness, making us feel truly welcome. Though we couldn’t save room for dessert, it simply gives us the perfect excuse to return soon. The Occidental delivers a dining experience that lingers in memory — refined, flavorful, and utterly satisfying. Highly recommended!”

“So authentic and tasty. yummy and feels like herby spicy. thank you”

“Great evening at Anju with work colleagues. The food was exceptional , full of flavor and beautifully done. As chefs ourselves, we were all impressed. Service was warm and smooth throughout. Thanks to Chef for coming by and explaining his dishes ., A great personal touch. Highly recommend.”

“Some of the best soul food that you can get, I am a Native Chicagoan that relocated to D.C. from Mississippi. I wish I would have visited this place when I first relocated. I visit 3 times a week (yes 3 times a week).”

“I’ve loved coming in and seeing the staff make the fresh coffee on Sunday from the pot. Such a refreshing aroma. I like their espresso coffee with steam milk .”

“Ma and Eam are the best people u ever want to meet they showed nothing but respect and a lot of. Love in there food 5 stars sis”

“the food was good and my uncle owns the place very cool and we get the food for free”

“Sent a review and meant to give 5 Stars for all ratings: 5-Overall 5-Food 5-Service 5-Atmosphere”

“A very inviting corner restaurant, great for people watching and cocktails. The drinks were nice and the atmosphere was lux. We went on a Saturday and it just felt like they needed a manager around. Felt like they were really understaffed and not ready for the crowds. There were some people who had worked there longer and were directing others, and the food did come out of the kitchen timely. But there wasn't a sense of table service really, you just catch them when you can, know the candle won't get lit even after you asked and teach the server how to swipe the card. I wish they had someone tending to things, but maybe when it's slower it will be better. The pizza was good, and lots of pepperoni. I wished it wasn't quite as soggy in the middle but it tasted good. And the burrata had no flavor, no nice olive oil or pepper, very bland, but it was a hearty portion. Can't complain about the drinks. I can sense when there's no service concept so I hope they get it together.”

“The food was delicious and Alejandro was a great server! He was very personable and prompt! We had the salmon cakes, banzino fish, w/greens, red beans & rice. The only thing that needed a smidge more seasoning was the fried green tomatoes. The first time I ordered them they were seasoned perfectly. I also thoroughly enjoyed the nicely cooked breakfast potatoes! This is my 3rd trip here, and I will be back!”

“great good great cook great service keep me coming back.”

“I enjoyed the most decorative meals full of nutrients and I would love to visit them ones again when I get less busy one day😊💕”

“Amazing food and exceptional service! My friends and I ate at the Georgetown Waterfront location literally every evening - such a great place.”

“Haley was absolutely fabulous. Her personality was so pleasant and she was extremely professional. She checked on us just the right amount of times and was very knowledgeable about the restaurant, even though she was relatively new. She's a true keeper. Oh yes, the food was out of this world. I know we'll be back and I've recommended it to my friends that either live in K of P or who I know visit there. it was just a lovely experience Laurie Edson”

“The octopus, sea scallops and the dish with the kale and butter beans were amazing! Every visit is an adventure for me. I also love the decor and the service”

“An excellent spot for casual meetings. They offer great service, a welcoming atmosphere, and delicious food.”

“The short rib with the mashed potatoes was delicious. Definitely a must get.”

“Carlos was our waiter. He was exceptional. Food and drinks exceptional. Hope to come and dine again in the future. It's a 5”

“The hard rock in this area was packed on the 4th of july weekend. We had a 45 min wait but was able to drink beer while we waited. Food was great and server was nice and fast with the beverages during the 104 degree day”

“Thanks you so much #psychiczabaza”

“The food is A-M-A-zing! Everything we had was so delicious. We tried the deviled eggs, fried green tomatoes salad, chicken and waffles, shrimp and grits - everything amazing. The service was excellent. Beautiful location.”

The carpaccio. Omg. Tiffany our server was so awesome and nice and prompt and really really sweet we liked her a LOT. Tableside Martini was unlike any i had before. Cantelope to spain cocktail was a hit. Would def go back. Super cute on the inside with super comfortable chairs and not too loud or too quiet. I was really really happy”

“I was reuniting with an old friend that was visiting DC, and we chose Casamara - it was a great choice. The bartender, Tashawn, made us feel so at home and at the same time like we were celebrating! He was the key to a great night.”

“We celebrated my boyfriend's birthday here this past weekend and couldn't be happier. Food, service and atmosphere were all 10/10. Shoutout to Tiago and Solomon. They were so hospitable! Even after being there over 3 hours we didn't want to leave!”

“Finally found decent Thai/Lao spot in DC! Red curry with pork belly, Papaya salad(can select Lao/Thai), and drunken noodle! Spicy information is right for American, not much spicy for me but it’s good.💋 open to revisit!”

“I’ve been to Alfreda multiple times now and just recently had the welcome party for my wedding here and it was phenomenal from start to finish. The food was perfect thanks to Chef Russell and the team took great care of my family and me. Highly recommend Alfreda!”

“GO TO LIZ!!! She was absolutely amazing and such a delight to have around, my first experience here and it was superb because of her. Such good energy and a vibe. Very good explanation and great recommendations. Will be coming again and will be seeing her! ❤❤”

“Candace is Superstar! I’m visiting in town with friends from all over, and my Ugandan friend after one taste, “this reminds me of home”. If you looking for quick bite, and/or dine in. This is the spot to go to for authentic African food and genuine connection. We definitely will be back while in town!”

“My experience at Kayu was lovely. Chef Paolo does an amazing job of sharing his culture through his food. The menu was very approachable and interesting. Each dish felt nostalgic somehow even though it isn’t my own culture. The service was attentive and our waitress was able to match me up with the perfect cocktail for my mood and it was beautiful.

The steak was a standout dish to me- the sourdough bread dipped in the sauce was perfect. All three desserts we tried were delicious.

It was a fantastic evening and we will definitely be coming back!”

“Meti and sky were wonderful. They helped me get all my drinks quickly and made me feel welcome and part of the crowd. This is definitely a place to check out if you're here.”

“Hottest new seafood restaurant near DuPont Circle. Best Lobster Risotto I’ve had in my life! The Lobster Bisque was very creamy with large chunks of fresh meat. Topped it off with Key Lime Pie in a cup. The owners are very friendly and the service was excellent. Definitely a 5-star place!”

“We were a party of 6 and used 2 F1 simulators. We all raced the Rookie level to get our bearings. Then the competition was on. Had loads of fun and plan to return with much more people. A great place for large gatherings. The cost for 90-minutes of racing is $31.00. Food variety was good and very flavorful. Recommend.”

“The food was incredible. The wood burning oven added so much flavor and the menu has a great mix of land and sea. Our favorite items were the charred maitake mushrooms, the pork chop and the half chicken. Don’t sleep on the half chicken. The wine list was well curated and reasonably priced. Highly recommend.”

“The service was amazing and Diana was my waitress she was so nice”

“Really enjoyed our anniversary dinner here and the bubbly they poured for us. Great service and beautifully decorated. Wine list has many French and natural/biodynamic wines; waiters/somms have solid recommendations and walk you through the beverage/food menu.

Standout dishes included the tuna tartare amuse bouche, brioche stuffed chicken, morel tart, and clam pasta, although they change their menu every few weeks.

It’s a compact space, but with the carpeted floors and drapes they have it doesn’t get overwhelmingly loud so that you can’t hear other people.

All checks include a 20% service charge, which they fully disclose on the menu and say when giving you your check, which I appreciated!”

“We ordered the meat platter, hummus and knafeh. Everything was delicious. Our waiter Weselin was great! He recommended the meat platter and we were glad we went with it.”
