I ordered Pork fried rice and it was literally disgusting. The rice tasted burnt, the food was bland and the pork bits were too big. I also asked for utensils and duck sauce and none was provided. Will never buy from this restaurant again! Beware!

The worst Asian food ever. I don’t think homeless would even eat things like this. And it’s totally overpriced.

I was almost misled by the rating. . . When I first watched it, it only scored 4.2 points, so I didn’t have any hope at all. As a result, every dish is extremely authentic, and the taste is unparalleled anywhere else in China. Twice-cooked pork, spicy beef noodles, hot and sour soup, every dish we ordered was impeccable

The crab rangoons were decent, but the general tso's wasn't my favorite.

Love, love, love this place. Best tofu I've had in DC, period. I always get the General Tso's crispy tofu and my husband always orders sesame tofu. There's not a lot of seating as most people seem to order takeout, but the service is great.

This is the best downtown DC Chinese food I have found. Mapo Toufu really has that authentic taste here. Also their eggplant and spicy chicken dish is authentic too.

Great food, good value for money. The black bean chicken, hot and sour soup, and dry hot pepper shrimp or chicken are delicious!

Little hole in the wall that is easily accessible along 14th Street, either walking distance from the nearby hotels or off the bus lines near Logan Circle and 14th St.Although there is a dining area they only do take out now. There is one chair to wait for your food, but it's easy to just wait outside for the 10 minutes it takes to make the dishes.Really delicious, super hot, and large portions. Great selection. I got the mapo tofu, it was on the spicier side than I normally find most mapo can be, but really tasty. The garlic eggplant was really saucy. Crispy noodles were my favorite part, but not easy to eat. They put the noodles in foil and the gravy in a soup container, so heading back to a hotel meant having to come up with a makeshift boat out of the foil.Easily two days of food for less than $50 is astounding coming from Maui!

For that after the bar snack (or meal for some), 14th Cafe is your place. Great customer service, well made and tasting food.

I typically order to go but dined in for the first time. The food is always consistent in quality & the value is great for their portions. The service is extremely quick & friendly.

Amazing Chinese takeout. I don’t think there was dine-in but I ordered and paid over phone and picked it up in 10 minutes piping hot. Very vegan friendly; the mapo tofu (I made sure to ask for it vegan with no pork), dry fried Szechuan style green beans, and garlic eggplant were all authentic and flavorful and just oh so yummy!!! The mapo tofu could’ve been spicier. It didn’t numb my tongue much as it’s supposed to. They warned me it would be spicy on phone a couple of times and I assured them it was okay but maybe because I am white and sounded white they dialed it back hehe but it was scrumptious and great deal because the portions are huge and it came with tons of rice. The beautiful ladies working there are also very sweet. Can’t wait to eat my bountiful leftovers tomorrow!
