Dined in today and Candance was our server, she was absolutely amazing and made our night. My friend and I came in after a long day of work and she quickly accommodated us and got us our drinks and food. Would 100% come back just for her to be our server!

Jocelyn’s service was excellent.

Nice staff, the girl with black hair was very friendly and kind with me. I liked the French Fries , a little bit less the hamburger as the bread was not the best

Kind of tired. Sticky tables. Oatmeal doesn’t have brown sugar - just little packets of “raw” sugar.

We came in for sunday brunch and the food was delicious and worth the trip! The bartender made fabulous drinks for the table! Our server Ary went above and beyond with the service, being attentive and making us feel like valued guests. We are already planning our next visit

Reprint new menues instead of being shady about paying your servers an acceptable wage.... How shady to have the only sign posted between the bathroom and employee door. I'm half tempted to contact and attorney and see if this is legal

Update: I went back by the business today and still see no signs other than the one in the back. Also, please explain where on your website and menu this is stated. Still can't find it.
DC isn't the only place to pay an acceptable wage. The rest of us reprint new menus so as not too upset customers

Average diner experience, but service leaves much to be desired, especially when they’re already charging you 10% to start with…

Came here with a few friends to end the night and it was a terrible experience. It took 30 minutes to be seated and the manager, Catherine pretended to take our order but did not. My friends and I learned that information after waiting 1.5 hours after a server advised us that our order wasn’t in the queue. This is unacceptable. Do yourself a favor and try a different establishment that respects and values their customers.

Absolutely disgusting experience at this diner on 18th Street in DC. We waited an hour and a half with zero service. Catherine supposedly took our order, but it was never even started. Thirty minutes later, Khalil had to retake our order because it wasn’t in the system.
We were a party of five and this is unacceptable. The complete lack of accountability and basic customer service is unacceptable for any establishment, let alone one in a city like DC. Save yourself the frustration and take your business elsewhere.

Service was slow, 1 of the two silverware looked like it hasn't been washed. Server forgot about drinks, but did end up discounting one of the two coffees.

First cup of coffee came out mostly cold. The second cup was much warmer. Description of the burrito by srver said meat potatoes and cheese only, but actually had some vegetables in it.
