8 Best Diners near Washington

“We came here after the nationals game and Dylan was our server and it was his best experience ever. My husband had the liver and onions and I had the cob salad and it was delicious. My sister-in-law had the avocado salad. I would come here at 10 out of 10 a time every single time and don’t forget to ask for Dylan as your waiter. It was amazing. And order the Mojito!“

“It’s a nice place to have some comfort food it all hours of the day and night“

“It was great! Friendly staff and great food ! This will be a stop EVERY time we come back to DC! 10 out of 10 recommended“

“To be fair, it is a diner. Not a fancy diner but a plain old hole in the wall kind of place where a neighborhood cat might visit.
I went to meet up with a friend who was at the Library of Congress. The prices are decent for where you are.
The food was fine. I’ve eaten at many restaurants, some with Michelin stars. Pete’s is okay. The food served a purpose. I was fed.
There are 2 Asian dishes I could identify, the Korean beef and rice dish and spring rolls. Everything else is plain American diner food. The beef dish comes with Kim Chi on top of salad greens.“

“I went here just walking down the street. I didn't know this was here. But I was able to order scrambled eggs with ham and grits on Kenilworth Ave. The food was home cooked so that was great. I had grits with butter on them. The eggs had cheese scrambled in. This stop was very good“

“I don’t know who was cooking in the kitchen tonight but this is the best this food has ever tasted! I knew when I opened the box it would be amazing and it was just that. Grand slamwich cooked to perfection and the potatoes were fluffy and seasoned. No complaints, 10/10 :)“

“I love this place! If you grew up in DC, you know how important a good carryout is....well this is the spot for you. Good food, fast, and for a decent price. Don't let some of these reviews deter you. Check them out, you won't be disappointed. They are open Monday through Friday and close at 2pm.“
