Authentic filipino food. Great flavors and variety. Lots of options for vegetarians or vegans.
I had the Laing with tofu - it has a deep hearty flavor, creamy spinach-like fullness, mildly sweet, and well balanced. Some jalapeño on the top keeps the dish exciting. Highly recommend!

Super delicious and lots of gluten free options! Every time I'm here I regret not coming more often. Fun DJ events too!
Only feedback is that I wish there was better coffee and a bigger selection of coffee drink offerings.

the very expensive snapper relleno was burned. Inconsistent, overpriced fare

I ordered door dash from here on 9/14/25 and it was horrible didn’t taste at all like when I ordered it before. I had the same noodle dish in-person here in the past.

Atmosphere, Ambience and Service was great, but for the Love of Filipino food, please change your Chef or Cook, make your menu as a simple but most delicious Filipino food. As a filipino, your food was either bland or too salty and does not taste the same, like the adobo, it did not taste like adobo at all. Fusion or not, it was horrible and also very expensive. Non filipino won’t probably notice but We do.

Purple Patch recently catered my father's celebration of life ceremony after his funeral at Arlington National Cemetery. The venue was within a few miles of the ANC, and being Sept 11, the funeral and honors ran long. Even with this, they helped open and set up the food, with everything ready as soon as the attendees started to arrive. The chef and everyone at Purple Patch are among the most caring, detail-oriented, and professional individuals you could ever meet. The attendees were a mix of cultures, but the majority was Filipino. My father was known as the family's chef. The food was AMAZING, DELICIOUS and IMPECABLE. Everyone raved about it, asking where the restaurant was located. The presentation of the food was elegant and in keeping with my father's memory. I always felt that I was in good hands with everyone at the Purple Patch, and they exceeded by wildest expectations. Thank you!

I keep coming back to Purple Patch because their Filipino classics are consistently flavorful, especially the lumpia and sizzling sisig. The vibe is warm and inviting, a perfect spot for casual dinners or weekend brunch. The owner, and her team create a genuine sense of hospitality. A bit pricey, sure, but the quality, passion, and authenticity make it absolutely worth it. Purple Patch is one of my favorite places to go when I want food that’s both comforting and exciting.
Busy Monday night, great restaurant with friendly staff. Our server Helen was lovely & was kind to let us try the purple Ube, really tasty. All our food was delicious, generous portions and for the US, good value. As tourists it is expensive here so it's good to find somewhere of good value.

Purple Patch is a quaint little spot for Filipino classics that I wish I had checked out sooner before moving out of DC. Their menu is very food allergy/sensitivity friendly, with plenty of vegan and vegetarian options as well. My waitress was super helpful in offering vegetarian recommendations (I ordered the Laing entree - a coconut milk dish that was incredibly flavorful) and couldn't leave without getting dessert (Ube bread putting with ube ice cream - also delicious). I don't think you can go wrong with anything on the menu!
