AboveGround restaurant offers a unique dining experience with a focus on British cuisine. Their Shepherd's Pie is praised as the best ever had, though it carries a higher price tag of nearly $18 for a small serving. The Fish and Chips, a favorite among many, features a gigantic filet of whitefish that is well breaded and crispy, with some guests noting the fish is the size of their forearm. The fries are a little thicker than expected but offer a smooth, starchy chew. The combination of the sausage roll and fish and chips is described as perfect, with giant fish and triple-cooked chips. Diners are encouraged to add vinegar and enjoy the accompanying sauces, which enhance the meal. The restaurant also boasts a vodka gimlet on its menu. AboveGround has become a must-visit spot for those craving authentic British food in Washington, DC, thanks to its flawless flavor and execution.
