Open City Reviews
Animal crackers were very fresh
It was alright - probably more of a 3.5 stars tbh. It’s a breakfast place so it’s not bad for breakfast. My daughter and I arrived in DC early morning, checked into our hotel at the Omni Shoreham and walked here for our first meal in DC. They had very few options for her as she is vegetarian and gluten free so that sucked. My breakfast was decent. I got the breakfast platter with bacon and literally got a pile of bacon (not just a couple slices) which was awesome....read full review
We recently hosted a celebration in the side sunroom and were very happy with the experience! Everyone, including toddlers and kids, found something on the menu they enjoyed and the space was perfect for a group meal. Thank you Jeri for helping us get everything planned in advance and thank you Riley for taking great care of us on the day! This was my first time at Open City but I'd definitely come back next time we're in the area. It's a great spot to pair with a day at the zoo.

Open City is a popular restaurant known for its delicious and affordable food. The breakfast burrito and pecan praline waffle remain standout menu items. The restaurant offers a wide variety of beverage options, including tea lattes made from loose-leaf tea. The service is generally efficient and accommodating, even for large groups. While it can get quite busy, the restaurant is wheelchair accessible and has good vegetarian options, such as a tasty veggie burger. The patio could use more ambiance, and some find the cocktails a bit too sweet, but overall, Open City provides a great dining experience.
Recent reviews praise the fresh and delicious orange and beet salad with grilled chicken, the attentive service, and the tasty pizza with a thin crust and flavorful sauce. However, one customer was disappointed with the portion size and price of the Open City Royale plate. The lavender French 75 cocktail was also noted as being excellent.
