Great spot in DC, the food is very tasty, well priced and the portions are massive! The food is prepared to order very quickly - you can see the kitchen and the chefs at work. The food was eaten by us within 20mins of ordering making it a perfect meal before the train.

On the third level of Union Station, on a balcony, sits this sit-down waiter service restaurant. I specifically came for the Filipino rolls known as Lumpiang Shanghai. It’s on the appetizer list, but I had it for dinner with a side order of vegetable fried rice.

The Shanghai Lumpia was excellent; crisp wrapper with a nicely seasoned meat filling. 100% authentic and delicious. The fried rice was also very good, with a strong wok-hei that was a pleasant experience.

I arrived to Union Station hungry and I am reviewing as I inhale my food so it may be biased. But to say the food is good is an understatement. This might be one of my top 15 meals I ever had. I ordered the Curry Luksa Noodle soup. It was delicious and arrived within 5 minutes of ordering. Had veggies, tofu, chicken and noodle - well rounded meal. Flavorful as well. Excited to stop by here again next time I am at Union Station.
