Pastis DC offers a great experience with a Parisian atmosphere that truly captures the charm of a classic French bistro. The beautiful space features warm lighting and classic décor, creating an aged feeling that is both charming and lively. The service is excellent, with attentive staff members ensuring a pleasant dining experience. While the interior can feel packed in some areas, there are plenty of larger tables accommodating groups.
Guests enjoy standout dishes such as the Chicken Kief, leek vinaigrette, and French onion soup, though some items may be a bit oversalted. The French onion soup is noted for its savory flavor, complemented by a delicious layer of cheese. The famous burger is highly recommended, described as divine and perfectly dressed. Other menu highlights include mussels with fries, steak haché, and scallop crudo, which is fresh and flavorful.
Pastis DC is also praised for its delicious cocktails and wine list featuring nice French options. The restaurant's lively atmosphere makes it a good spot for a fun night out, although it can get quite loud when busy. Overall, Pastis DC is a solid choice for those seeking a vibrant ambiance and tasty dishes in Union Market, making it a great place for brunch or a casual meal.
