“I recently went for brunch and the French toast was out of this world — perfectly cooked, flavorful, and one of those dishes you keep thinking about after you leave. The whole experience was such a vibe. Great atmosphere, beautiful presentation, and bold flavors that really stand out. Definitely adding this to my go-to brunch spots!“

“Vera is probably the coolest place in DC! Not only is the food incredible but the environment, the staff and the vibe knows no rival in the city. My wife and I love the place so much we decided to have our wedding there and with the help of the amazing Milena we had the best time at our wedding. From the food, to the drinks, to the party, to every small detail, Milena, Fatema, Dusan and the entire Vera team made sure we would have the best day ever and we did. Whether just grabbing lunch or looking for a place to celebrate, this is where!“

We chose to dine in and I am glad that we did. Cristian was an absolute sweetheart and was very patient with us. Tanika was amazing and a great host and was very knowledgeable with a kind spirit. I am only coming to the Riverdale location from now on. Thanks team!“

“Visited San Pacho today and overall had a really solid experience. I had the quesadilla, and my friend got the California burrito—which comes loaded with fries inside and was honestly really good and filling. One thing I really appreciated was that they offer non-alcoholic slushies. I tried the guava one and it was so good, super refreshing and definitely a standout. I was a little surprised they don’t offer tacos, but the menu still has great options that hit the spot. The food, staff, and overall vibe were all on point—friendly service and a chill atmosphere that makes you want to stay a little longer than planned. Only heads-up is parking can be a bit tricky on busier days, so plan accordingly. Overall, a great spot I’d definitely come back to.“

“The best taco spot around.“

“Me gusta mucho este lugar, buen servicio, buena comida y agradable ambiente!😍😋“

“My favorite place to eat in all of DC and they have carna Asada fries, those that know, know it’s a treasure in San Diego that’s why I like this place so much“

“Family got the tacos al Pastor and de Suadero with guacamole and chips. Watched the Brazil vs Japan FIFA. Atmosphere was electric with fans. Coming back later for margaritas. Excellent food and taste. Come and sample…. No disappointments here.“

“Delicious food and great atmosphere.“

“We visited DC for four nights. We ate here twice because it was so good. The happy hour specials were delicious and good deals. The salsa is transcendent. Loved the mojito and the sangria. The carnitas, the tinga de pollo and the esquites were AMAZING! The whole staff is awesome and the atmosphere is so cool.“

“If you love Mexican seafood, ceviches, and margaritas, this place is for you. Mariscos Culiacán, right on University Blvd in Takoma Park, seriously delivers.
I had the Original Tajín Margarita (their spicy-style margarita), and it was amazing—perfectly balanced with a great kick. The Aguachiles were fresh, spicy, and full of flavor. But the star of the night was the Ceviche Especial—absolutely unbelievable. Super fresh seafood with bold, well-seasoned flavors.
What really sets this place apart is the combination of authentic Mexican mariscos and sushi. You can enjoy ceviches, tostadas, cocteles, and sushi rolls all in one visit, and everything works.
The space is big and lively with lots of screens, giving it a fun sports bar vibe. They also have happy hour from 4–7 PM plus daily specials, which makes it an easy win.
If you’re into ceviches, margaritas, and bold Mexican flavors, I highly recommend Mariscos Culiacán. I’ll definitely be back.“

“The food was really good! They even have some rare dishes like Menudo. Don't expect much service when it's busy, and you might even need to wait a while, but it's okay. Parking can also be tight during weekends, cause street parking requires permit.“

“I am sure Korean food is the best when tasted in Korea. That's why I'm not a big fan of Korean restaurants abroad. However this one, Rice Bar in DC satisfied me for real. 다만 제 느낌에 1회용 숫가락이 좀더 크면 좋겠고 젓가락에 일본어 적힌 점이 아쉽.. 그래도 또 들리고 싶네요.“

“These are authentic street tacos. Don’t come here looking for TexMex. No cheese. Lettuce. Sour cream. None of that 💩 on these bad boys. I got the carnitas tacos. And took the birria home for my kiddos. Excellent.“

“Me encantaron las Tortas , los tacos de lengua también , sólo un pequeño detalle el refresco lo dejan muy dulce pero para gustos el mundo buen servicio y amabilidad del personal ☺️“

“This is absolutely one of my favorite places to go! The Roost was my go to during the pandemic with tons of outdoor seating. Since it was in my neighborhood we frequented a lot. The staff watched my little one practically grow up there! It became our meeting place and neighborhood watering hole. Quick and efficient and some of the best food and customer service! We’ve moved from the area but always stop by when in town because it feels like home!“

“The food was very flavorful and fresh. We had the Pollo Saltado (which was the best. The chicken was very soft and tender), the Buritto Bowl and Pollo Salad. My husband put green sauce on the Buritto Bowl, so I did not try it. Salad was good. I would get the Pollo Saltado next time and see if I could sub salad for the fries.“

“This is my favorite Silvestre (Walters lane) to go to out of the chain. The food is always delicious and I love the manager there . All the staff there are friendly and helpful. They have the best customer service. The male manager is my favorite person there . He’s been there for years and love the customers.“

“I love visiting new places, especially when traveling.

This gem in Washington was so good! The atmosphere when you get inside the restaurant can’t be on the photo.

Staff was kind and great! Drinks and food were delicious. Most creative interpretation of banitsa I ever tried - loved it!

Definitely recommended!“
