Astoria DC offers a variety of dishes, particularly known for their spicy options and Szechuan cuisine. The water boiled fish is a highlight, made with high-quality ingredients and authentic spices. Vegetarians and vegans can also enjoy a selection of dishes. The location has a cozy, speakeasy atmosphere with a charming vibe that is great for sharing dishes. It is a popular spot, often busy and requiring reservations, especially on weekends or during peak hours, with some outdoor seating and bar tables available for walk-ins. The menu is extensive, featuring notable dishes like braised pork belly, Little noodle (very spicy and a little soupy), Dan Dan noodle (dry with peanuts, less spicy), mapo tofu, lah-zi chicken, and the crab fried rice. The cocktail program is notable, offering a great selection. The staff is attentive and friendly, working hard to provide good service even on busy nights. The ambiance is beautiful and perfect for photos, though some find the smell lingering a bit and the menu a little difficult to read. Overall, Astoria DC is a recommended destination for those seeking flavorful and authentic Chinese dishes in a lively setting.
