“I had heard of Call Your Mother when researching good bagel places in DC. The bagels are okay - they are definitely not the chewy New York style I am used to. The everything was a bit underwhelming, however the apple cinnamon had just the right amount of sweetness. The oat latte was actually quite good; it’s a really good cup of coffee with a huge range of bagel sandwiches.Vegetarian options: You can build your own bagel sandwich and add veggies if you have specific preferences.“
“It’s been 5 years since I last ate here, and it feels like old times today. The breakfast platter taste just like I remembered, the staff is very he beat as always. And they remember me and the melts my heart. #bestbreakfastDC #toptenstaff #“
“Very busy place with lots of good snacks (and supplies if you're short on something for the home) and food! The prices are a little up there but I'd say it's worth it for the most part. Make sure to get napkins for the sandwiches! They're really messy!“
“Excellent choice while in DC. The bagel and locks, and the corned beef and pastrami egg and cheese on everything bagel was absolutely fantastic!I see some others left 1-star reviews in regards to staff being negative. I mean, the title of this shop has "So's Your Mom"!C-mon! They're just yankin your chain before you even walk inside :)Live a little, am I wrong? Laughter is the best medicine.Food was awesome. Don't come in if you're too uptight, so, get your momma to pick up your order from here after you call ahead.“
“Thanks to other reviews, I found this place fairly easily. What a great little mom and pop spot! The prices are beyond reasonable! I had a sausage egg and cheese on a bagel and home fries. Both were delicious and my total was under $10! Definitely try it out if you're in the area!“
“There’s no shortage of good delis in Washington, D.C.- Carl’s Subbs, Mother Rucker’s, Mangialardo’s, among others. 2 Sisters Deli may not stand with the giants, but it’s a worthy contender, especially for a no-frills deli in an office building. Surrounded by government buildings, it’s one of the few places to grab a good local lunch that’s not a chain. Stopping in for lunch, here’s my experience.1) Food: The line is long, but it moves quickly during lunch with so many people taking orders. Know what you want so you can order right when they ask. They sell classic sandwiches, specialty sandwiches, melts, and wraps.I ordered the Wall Street Club without tomato and it was good. It comes cut in half and was the perfect amount of food. I added a fountain drink and chips (Sun Chips).2) Drinks: There’s coffee, bottled drinks, and a Pepsi soda fountain.3) Service: It’s quick and no time for conversation, but it was a good experience.4) Space: It’s no-frills and there are a few tables with chairs in the back if you’re one of the few who don’t get your sandwich to go.“
“Awesome food for the price. Everything is super fresh! They have gluten free bread which was very good! Friendly staff and fast service! Cute little cafe. Hidden gem for sure!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free bread option that was very good!“
“Despite there being a very busy lunchtime crowd, the staff moved efficiently and quickly like a well-oiled machine. Deli-style sandwiches, wraps, paninis, subs, and salads. My gyro Greek salad came with tzatziki, and a tasty pink Greek dressing on the side --also loaded with thin-sliced gyro meat. Excellent lunch for those on the go.“
“Jack's is a circus and with that, welcome to the big top and enjoy the show. I have been expanding my reach for lunch while in the office. Most people I work with don't like to venture out too much, but for me, I will put in the footwork to find a new place that I can throw into my rotation.After a quick walk I was here and thrown into the madness with everyone else. I purposefully showed up after what I though was going to be the lunch rush and was surprised by the amount of people still piling in to grab themselves some lunch like me.I'm going to be honest here, I had no idea what I was doing in here as it was my first visit. I had no idea how things worked in this circus, but I was going to try my best to fit in. When I got inside I stood in a line that I though was the place to be. I had no clue if this is how this place flowed, but I went with it. Luckily for me it was the right thing to do. That line had constant movement and before I knew it I was at the front and placing my order. I ordered two sandwiches and fries (they were on special that day).Then this is where you get to sit back and enjoy the show. After you order you are given your number for your order and you kind of just get pushed off to the sides and are able to take it all in. This is where I realized that there really isn't any one particular way to go about getting food in here. In the middle of it all is the hot/cold bar where you can order salads, sides and soups. I was wondering how some people were getting out of here so fast and that was it, some knew they wanted to just have some soup or nosh on a salad and that was the way for them.As I am watching the show in front of me, I keep getting pushed back further and further to what I am assuming is a corridor that connects to the main building or the restrooms. I kept seeing people getting their orders as I stood there. Finally they called my number and told me I still had to wait for the fries. If I would have known it was going to take that long I probably wouldn't have ordered them. But that also let me look over the coolers for a drink and then eventually get a dessert, even though I didn't need one.My fries were finally done and I got in line to pay. The circus continues here as there are multiple lines, but no one knows which one they should be getting into. With my food in hand and having paid, I was finally able to get out the door and back to my office.I ordered two sandwiches here because I knew I was going to be in the office late that evening and it was like killing two birds with one stone type of situation. For my lunchtime sandwich I went with a BLT as I have been on that kick for a minute now. It was delicious and I was happy to have that pickle wrapped up in there with it.For my later meal I went with an egg salad sandwich which I knew would hold better in a fridge for later. Also paired with a pickle. My soda choice matched perfectly and that, my friends, is how you get a show with your meal. Go to a vibrantly busy business and watch the mishmash of people buzz about.Not bad for review 3,300!“
“Pizza for $2.50 a slice. Very old school Italian deli. It was great to see this kind of place still going strong in an age of chain markets and restaurants. We also picked up some funky looking pasta sauce. We'll definitely be coming back to get olives as a party appetizer, or a pizza as takeout.“
“I haven't eaten here yet but plan to do so soon. I stop in for something every time I visit my niece and nephew who live in the neighborhood. My niece raves about their salads. They are well stocked for a small shop and the staff is great! I love stopping in just for the atmosphere and to give them business. Small businesses in the city need to thrive, especially when they get it right like these folks have!“
“Listen, I order GrubHub seven days a week OK I never heard of this restaurant before I ordered three sandwiches first of all the patty melt is so good and came so hot off fresh off the grill it burnt the top of my mouth and I couldn’t do anything but keep eating it. Amazing flavor freshness, quality, if I ever wanted to learn how to make sandwiches, I will go to university wise Miller, deli superior I’ve been in DC 13 years and I always learned something new or new place to go. This place never seems to amaze me keep up the five star business, I love it.“
“Needed a quick bite to eat after a concert & going to out hotel close by, had the chicken wrap & some wings. We enjoyed that it was made fresh on the spot & tasted great especially at midnight, the casher was UNFORGETABLE with his catchphrase "alright awesome!" He's definitely a highlight. Would definitely swing by this small hidden gem!!“
“They have the best chicken wings and mumbo sauce in the city. The fish sandwich is always fresh and hot. Great Customer Service! You will not be disappointed. They know everyone by name. If you're in the area give them a try! They close pretty early though around 3pm. Get there grab some lunch and go see the cherry blossoms, visit the yards or catch a concert at the wharf!“
“First visit. The phones on the wall and rustic / pastel paint job are creative and cute without being tacky - nice vibe. Staff very friendly and helpful. We tried 2 of the bagel sandwiches: The Mountain View. Egg, latke and cheese - great combo I've never heard of before, highly recommended - there was so little avocado that it didn't register, but it wasn't needed. The Sun City with bacon, egg, cheese, honey on everything bagel - also a good combo if less original than the Mountain View. The music was loud and not great. Maybe the strategy is to get people to just take out and not sit down? The suggested tip starts at 15%....l know many places in DC are doing that but for takeout it's not ok with me. Prices + tips have gotten out of hand and we do eat out less often now because of it.“
“We are highly satisfied. My husband and I ordered the single crab cake sandwich, big chair reuben and fries. Everything was so good. Please keep up the good work as related to the quality and freshness of the food you’re serving. It’s definitely needed and appreciated in this neighborhood.“
“My husband and I were visiting DC in February. The hotel we were at did not have a restaurant. After some exploring we found this little gem. Had a delicious breakfast every morning in DC and never left feeling hungry. The staff is very welcoming and friendly. It was nice to go there in the morning and be recognized. I know those in the restaurant business see a lot of people. To be remembered is something special. We are planning another trip back in a couple weeks and plan to make this a daily stop for us.“
“The pink exterior of this building is unmissable; it seems to have become a must-visit brunch spot for those living in Georgetown. While we may have forgotten what we ordered, one thing not to be missed is their "spicy honey" - it elevates the taste of the bagel to a whole new level. Seating is limited, so it's first come, first served!“
