This is a typical cafeteria happen to be located on the 6th floor of the Madison building at the Library of Congress. It has a salad station, Asian station, deli sandwich station and a Starbucks. I had the hot/cold foods for $9 per pound. It is open to the public but mostly staffers come here on their lunch break. Skip Subway and Dunkin Donuts downstairs and come here next time. Recommended.

This place got a nice set of choice. My favorite is the Korean bibimbop corner. The owner is super friendly.The cafe itself got a very nice view. Expect a large crowd during the lunch time.

It was packed, but the cafeteria style serving stations and the checkout lines got us through quickly. Check out the salad bar--it is fresh and replenished quickly.

There are a lot of cafeterias in the Capitol complex, this is the best one. I'm a Hill staffer and I will happily take the time to walk across the Capitol complex to eat here when I get the time. If you are a book lover, this would be a perfect place on a slow afternoon to grab a book and plant yourself along the entire wall of floor to ceiling windows and enjoy the view with a cup of coffee and a treat.
