“A throw back deli like the best NY has to offer. You’re as likely to see your old Hebrew school teacher enjoying a white fish platter as you are a landscaping crew chowing down on bagels and lox. Service is quick and courteous; pickle bar is plentiful; sandwiches sumptuous; desserts decadent. Chicken soup and matzah balls like grandma made. Eat al fresco in nice weather. What else do you need?“
“I’ve been wanting to visit Eddie’s Little Deli for a while now, and I’m so glad I finally made it out there on Thursday to try out their chicken cutlet sandwiches. Let me just say, that the sandwich that I had (No. 29) was one of the best I’ve ever had. If you haven’t been yet, I strongly recommend you go. Make sure you check them out on Tuesdays/Thursdays for their chicken sandwiches. Also be sure to check out some of their unique sodas!“

“I had heard of Call Your Mother when researching good bagel places in DC. The bagels are okay - they are definitely not the chewy New York style I am used to. The everything was a bit underwhelming, however the apple cinnamon had just the right amount of sweetness. The oat latte was actually quite good; it’s a really good cup of coffee with a huge range of bagel sandwiches.Vegetarian options: You can build your own bagel sandwich and add veggies if you have specific preferences.“
“It’s been 5 years since I last ate here, and it feels like old times today. The breakfast platter taste just like I remembered, the staff is very he beat as always. And they remember me and the melts my heart. #bestbreakfastDC #toptenstaff #“
“Very busy place with lots of good snacks (and supplies if you're short on something for the home) and food! The prices are a little up there but I'd say it's worth it for the most part. Make sure to get napkins for the sandwiches! They're really messy!“
“Thanks to other reviews, I found this place fairly easily. What a great little mom and pop spot! The prices are beyond reasonable! I had a sausage egg and cheese on a bagel and home fries. Both were delicious and my total was under $10! Definitely try it out if you're in the area!“
“Excellent choice while in DC. The bagel and locks, and the corned beef and pastrami egg and cheese on everything bagel was absolutely fantastic!I see some others left 1-star reviews in regards to staff being negative. I mean, the title of this shop has "So's Your Mom"!C-mon! They're just yankin your chain before you even walk inside :)Live a little, am I wrong? Laughter is the best medicine.Food was awesome. Don't come in if you're too uptight, so, get your momma to pick up your order from here after you call ahead.“
“I'm still exploring the area around work and am always delighted in finding different places to eat. With Corner Bakery in limbo with it being 'temporarily closed' for months now, I almost lost hope that I would find variation for lunch anymore. We all know the draining experience it can be to visit Union Station as well. It's always fun visiting this place due to the fact that you might run into a newscast out front from one of the many news channels located within the building. But once you get past any newscast outside you are finally able to enter and take a look over the menu. If you do not know what you want, stand to the side and allow other customers to come in and order. I have been here a few times since my initial check in and have had the opportunity to try a few things. Overall, the quality of the food is fresh and it is tasty. I seem to stick to the items that are "California." I have had the California Wrap and I have had the California bowl. The wrap is fresh and packed full of toppings. Ample enough to be a lunch and portable enough to eat on your way back to your workplace. The bowl, you'll need a bit of time to sit down and devour this. Rice is the base and all the toppings are placed on top. Fresh avocado kind of pulls it all together. This place is capable of catering, but it appears that you will need to call well in advance to set up your catering needs. Due to their hours they would need to set it up with staffing an what not. As for the location, going back to that, a lot of the pictures appear to be of the old location. With it being in the Hall of States it is a much brighter atmosphere. White making it feel crisp and indoor/outdoor seating available. The sides are decent. I have gotten one of their cookies (amazing). And their cooler is stocked full of items that will seem exotic until you try them.“
“Jack's is a circus and with that, welcome to the big top and enjoy the show. I have been expanding my reach for lunch while in the office. Most people I work with don't like to venture out too much, but for me, I will put in the footwork to find a new place that I can throw into my rotation.After a quick walk I was here and thrown into the madness with everyone else. I purposefully showed up after what I though was going to be the lunch rush and was surprised by the amount of people still piling in to grab themselves some lunch like me.I'm going to be honest here, I had no idea what I was doing in here as it was my first visit. I had no idea how things worked in this circus, but I was going to try my best to fit in. When I got inside I stood in a line that I though was the place to be. I had no clue if this is how this place flowed, but I went with it. Luckily for me it was the right thing to do. That line had constant movement and before I knew it I was at the front and placing my order. I ordered two sandwiches and fries (they were on special that day).Then this is where you get to sit back and enjoy the show. After you order you are given your number for your order and you kind of just get pushed off to the sides and are able to take it all in. This is where I realized that there really isn't any one particular way to go about getting food in here. In the middle of it all is the hot/cold bar where you can order salads, sides and soups. I was wondering how some people were getting out of here so fast and that was it, some knew they wanted to just have some soup or nosh on a salad and that was the way for them.As I am watching the show in front of me, I keep getting pushed back further and further to what I am assuming is a corridor that connects to the main building or the restrooms. I kept seeing people getting their orders as I stood there. Finally they called my number and told me I still had to wait for the fries. If I would have known it was going to take that long I probably wouldn't have ordered them. But that also let me look over the coolers for a drink and then eventually get a dessert, even though I didn't need one.My fries were finally done and I got in line to pay. The circus continues here as there are multiple lines, but no one knows which one they should be getting into. With my food in hand and having paid, I was finally able to get out the door and back to my office.I ordered two sandwiches here because I knew I was going to be in the office late that evening and it was like killing two birds with one stone type of situation. For my lunchtime sandwich I went with a BLT as I have been on that kick for a minute now. It was delicious and I was happy to have that pickle wrapped up in there with it.For my later meal I went with an egg salad sandwich which I knew would hold better in a fridge for later. Also paired with a pickle. My soda choice matched perfectly and that, my friends, is how you get a show with your meal. Go to a vibrantly busy business and watch the mishmash of people buzz about.Not bad for review 3,300!“
“Awesome food for the price. Everything is super fresh! They have gluten free bread which was very good! Friendly staff and fast service! Cute little cafe. Hidden gem for sure!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free bread option that was very good!“
“Great little shop located in lobby area of a professional building. Shelves are stocked with many different options as well as healthy fruits and vegetables. Would recommend anyone doing business in the 8720 Office Building to check them out.“
“There’s no shortage of good delis in Washington, D.C.- Carl’s Subbs, Mother Rucker’s, Mangialardo’s, among others. 2 Sisters Deli may not stand with the giants, but it’s a worthy contender, especially for a no-frills deli in an office building. Surrounded by government buildings, it’s one of the few places to grab a good local lunch that’s not a chain. Stopping in for lunch, here’s my experience.1) Food: The line is long, but it moves quickly during lunch with so many people taking orders. Know what you want so you can order right when they ask. They sell classic sandwiches, specialty sandwiches, melts, and wraps.I ordered the Wall Street Club without tomato and it was good. It comes cut in half and was the perfect amount of food. I added a fountain drink and chips (Sun Chips).2) Drinks: There’s coffee, bottled drinks, and a Pepsi soda fountain.3) Service: It’s quick and no time for conversation, but it was a good experience.4) Space: It’s no-frills and there are a few tables with chairs in the back if you’re one of the few who don’t get your sandwich to go.“
“I haven't eaten here yet but plan to do so soon. I stop in for something every time I visit my niece and nephew who live in the neighborhood. My niece raves about their salads. They are well stocked for a small shop and the staff is great! I love stopping in just for the atmosphere and to give them business. Small businesses in the city need to thrive, especially when they get it right like these folks have!“
“Pizza for $2.50 a slice. Very old school Italian deli. It was great to see this kind of place still going strong in an age of chain markets and restaurants. We also picked up some funky looking pasta sauce. We'll definitely be coming back to get olives as a party appetizer, or a pizza as takeout.“
“No complaints place has good food good prices and kind employees. My plumbing school is 1 minute away and many other students all order from them at once but they can handle the rush with fresh tasty food! I've never ate inside but place seems clean and inviting“
“Stopped by this place while shopping and I will say I will be coming back. I got the chop cheese and fries and it was packed with meat all the way to the top which a lot of places don’t do. Also customer service was really friendly and accommodating.“
“First time trying this spot. I'll definitely be back. Though they are known for sandwhiches, I got the wings and baaabbbyyy I almost crashed my car driving home they were so good. Hb flavor is like a habanero but sweet but definitely spicy (hope that makes sense). Just to get some and change your life !“
“They have the best chicken wings and mumbo sauce in the city. The fish sandwich is always fresh and hot. Great Customer Service! You will not be disappointed. They know everyone by name. If you're in the area give them a try! They close pretty early though around 3pm. Get there grab some lunch and go see the cherry blossoms, visit the yards or catch a concert at the wharf!“
“Absolutely the #1 BREAKFAST AND LUNCH in DMV AREA there has been no other deli I've visited that was as fast and such perfectly prepared down home food. I've been a loyal customer for many years and promise you all that you will NEVER be disappointed each time.“
“Quick breakfast/lunch place! We got two subs and two drinks for lunch, which costed lesser than $20. The service is very good, friendly and efficient, so even if you see many people in the store, you won't wait much. For a wrap, I could choose a wrap type so I had green spinach rather than regular wheat or other types. The ingredients were super fresh, and the portion was also great. Way way way better than going to Subway, which doesn't have fresh ingredients or offer this price. There are a range of sub menus so I would try another one again. There are two tables inside and many outdoor seatings outside.“
“Needed a quick bite to eat after a concert & going to out hotel close by, had the chicken wrap & some wings. We enjoyed that it was made fresh on the spot & tasted great especially at midnight, the casher was UNFORGETABLE with his catchphrase "alright awesome!" He's definitely a highlight. Would definitely swing by this small hidden gem!!“
“This is a convenience store and categorically when it comes to food, it's a "hole in the wall" type of establishment. However, the food is good. I always order the cheese steak and have had it about 5 times with french fries and home fries. It comes with steak, cheese, onions, mushrooms, mild hot peppers, tomatoes and mayo. It's really good. I haven't tried anything else, but the locals have had great things to say about the food. The place is not the cleanest (which I am embarrassed to admit) but they keep the kitchen area tidy. They need to dust, mop, and organize a bit.“
“Upon suffering fractured ribs from multiple police cars smashing into his own, and then being informed by the AI in his armored, jet-propulsion-equipped, Chevy Tahoe that "DC Metro Police Dispatch shows no units in this area," it is quite possible that Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury had second thoughts. What if, instead of asking Agent Maria Hill to come to DC in three hours under "Deep Shadow Conditions," he had entertained a less risky plan of hers he never mentioned to anyone? What if he had agreed to an all-members-of-Shield retreat in Greenbelt, Maryland, only fifteen minutes away as the crow flies from DC, and scheduled breakfast at the Uptown Grill at 7501 Greenway Drive? Although it's true he might've been less likely to hear the "Hail Hydras" whispered among Jasper Sitwell, Senator Stern, Brock Rumlow, and Alexander Pierce, it's also true that Hydra's clandestine communications might very well have been disrupted by every agent of Shield ordering "Banana Cakes," pancake-shaped pieces of decadent delight that need no syrup to stymie loose lips and already-lost honor.“
“My husband and I were visiting DC in February. The hotel we were at did not have a restaurant. After some exploring we found this little gem. Had a delicious breakfast every morning in DC and never left feeling hungry. The staff is very welcoming and friendly. It was nice to go there in the morning and be recognized. I know those in the restaurant business see a lot of people. To be remembered is something special. We are planning another trip back in a couple weeks and plan to make this a daily stop for us.“
“Super nice owner I came by for some other business in the building and I wasn't allowed to bring my coffee into the testing center. So after the test I went back and got another cup of coffee and the owner recognized me and said another cup? I told him that the testing center didn't allow coffee in and they made me dump it. The owner was really nice and took mercy on me and let me have another cup for free. The coffee was really really good. I was surprised. Normally when it sits on a burner it gets burnt, but this was really fresh. I guess that's why it's called fresh deli.“
“I could not believe this store. People were lined up outside trying to get in line. This was my first time and I knew the food had to be good with so many people standing in line. I purchased a 7 pound Honey Baked Ham and a small sliced Turkey packet. The manager was so helpful but she sent Mr Alonzo to complete my order. He took care of my needs and brought all the Ham with him to the front counter. I will return to this store again. The food and customer service was outstanding.“
“The food is solid; no frills, but absolutely delicious. The staff is very nice, treats customers with respect, and genuinely appreciates our business.This breakfast spot never disappoints. Ever. Chopped steak and eggs, pancakes, corned beef hash.... you name it, I've had it. And it's all been really good.There's nothing fancy about this place; it's a hole in the wall spot churning out good food, real fast.If you want something quick, hearty, and made to order.... This is the spot.“
