The Heights Food Hall

Great addition to the neighborhood with some excellent and diverse food court options that are upscale and unique.

They liven up this indoor outdoor food space with nice seasonal decorations and live music.

They have great Indian, Korean, Japanese, Mexican and more options. The soft serve ice cream is delicious.

If you have not tried this, you definitely should. Lots of very good options from a wide range of cuisine. Clean, cheerful space and well run operation.

Waited over a year as the opening kept getting delayed. It’s a poorly designed food hall with no ambiance and cheapish decor. So disappointing after waiting this long. Service at tables is slow and poor. No parking and the place was empty the 2 times we went there. The only food we enjoyed was from Saoco and DCDosa which is just as fresh and delicious as their Union Market location.
The other issue is that no one in our immediate neighborhood knows it’s open. There was no grand opening, no signage, nothing.

Bad service. Waited FORTY MINUTES for a bartender before I finally gave up and left

A great choice of different cuisines in one place. I previously had lunch at Sky Lantern and Saoco with dessert at Mimi's. This time it was lunch at This Deli of Ours with coffee from Saoco. I plan to try them all.

I live in DC and have been here several times. One of the tastiest Cuban sandwiches I’ve ever had. Bar staff is incredibly attentive. Unique concept. Check it out!

This isreview not indicative of The Heights but of one place Sky Lantern. We have eaten at 4 places in this food hall and each was a different experience. PLEASE NOTE THIS IS ABOUT SKY LANTERN. With that said, let's get into it.

I went to The Heights to get cubanos from the Cuban place and saw that Sky Lantern had 36 Hour Drunken Braised Short Ribs on Lo Mein Noodles. This sounded tasty so a few days later, I rounded up the wife and we took off to The Heights. We ordered the ribs, egg rolls and the gyoza. What we got was trash, trash and trash. The egg rolls were mushy and cold inside. The gyoza has tough and tasteless. The main dish was obviously cooked by a 36 hour drunken middle schooler. What they called short ribs was an insult. It was slices of meat the size of bologna and barely had any seasoning. It was overpriced and we were disgusted by the whole deal. As we say in our household, "How dare you have a restaurant and not serve good food.

You can find poke bowl inside. The taste was 6.5/10; the choice for salmon is only baked. Convenient when you’re busy.

Food was surprising good! Thai chicken dish, cuban sandwich and empanadas were excellent! We sat outside and ordered from different restaurants. Great night!

The worst burrito of my Life. And the poorest service.
Stay away

Walking into this place you are filled with a clean and friendly environment with several food stalls. I highly recommend Doki Doki for their sushi and Mimi’s for their Matcha ice cream! They were absolutely delicious and the staff were so friendly!

Great upscale food court. The prices are around $20-$30 a person but it’s higher quality food and a great atmosphere!
