“Enjoyed the sub from Jerseys Mike. Tasty, fresh with the perfect amount of seasoning. Orderd subs before from Jerseys Mike and will definitely order again. First and only choice when it comes to a desire for the perfect and best tasting sub. That's the truth !! “

“The best hard roll sub in DC has got to be the G Man. My family has been eating them for well over 40 years. It's a family run carry out that has consistently made the same sandwich's for my family my whole entire life. If I'm in the neighborhood, I pick some up for everyone. It's a tradition my father started and I happily carry it on.“

“This is the BEST place as I have been a loyal and consistent customer since I was a young person. I have enjoyed the food here for many years. I am an avid Italian Cold Cut and NY Pizza Connoisseur and they never disappoint. The flavor of the food and the customer service is always on point and they always make me happy to be a customer. I would strongly recommend this family restaurant as a Gorgeous Prince Georges County, MD Staple. The food is always fresh and served with a good attitude and smile.“

“Atmosphere was depressing and service was average. Just buying some sandwhiches.The price was more than I expected I ordered 3 sandwhiches and a juice and it came out to 45$. Not insane considering prices these days but for how dumpy the place is I was hoping to walk out paying 35$ tops.That said, the King Street sandwich was fantastic. The Cali club was average but healthy portions. The food was ready when I arrived in 15 minutes and was still warm.I’d come back again for the king street sandwhich (pictured below) but otherwise not really worth the price IMO.If these came out to 10$ a piece with tax, this place would be outstanding.Kid-friendliness: Not very kid friendly. Just a run down sandwich shop.“

“The office I work at loves to order here for luncheons. This time I tried one of their fan favorites the Sweet Thai Chili Grilled Chicken Sandwich. It was so so good. I was very impressed. It had the right amount of kick from the chili and crunch from the slaw. Next luncheon, I will prob order again thats just how good it was & on a warm brioche bun.“

“A small sandwich and smoothie shop that has fresh food and great values. My Classic BLT ($12.99) was huge and also had onions, cucumbers and lots of avocado. My Manapple Smoothie was nice and thick and refreshing. Located across the street from the Farragut West Metro.“

“My first time visit to J/M..so far..so good ?. The service gets a four should be a three because I was the next person in line and the waitress pointed to a lady behind me for the next to be service .. clearly I was the next person in line ?“

“Anyone and everyone around DC, if asked where to get the best sub sandwich, will suggest a sub from here. It's the "Go To" spot. Only makes subs and has been doing this for years. Very nice selection to choose from and fast service. Lunchtime is always the busiest time to visit but they keep it moving. Hard not to give it 5 stars. Number 9 is my favorite!“

“Yum!! Stopped in Friday afternoon and got the Korean Fried Chicken bowl with the garlic sauce and rice and it was delicious! Even the coleslaw it came with was good (and I'm not someone who usually likes coleslaw). Chicken was tender and flavorful while the rice was decent, really enjoyed the sauce that seeped into the rice from the chicken. The coleslaw is a mayo base and almost had a sweetness to it too. Service was good and speedy. You order at the counter and you have to watch the number ticker at the front for your number as they don't really call out your number. There are tables inside as well as outside and the overall establishment was clean.“

“These are the best sandwiches I've had in town, hands down. The brisket and roast beef are delicious, and definitely appreciate something that's made by the people serving it. Either their menu favorites or to build your own, there are enough options for anything you can think of. The serving of hand cut fries are large, and actually less expensive than fast food. There's a counter/bar to sit at, and self serve seating if you want to stay. The only drawback is it's pretty expensive, so while you do get what you pay for it's a little steep for me to go often.“

“Junction Cafe is a hidden gem! The food is absolutely delicious, with a diverse menu that caters to various tastes. The ambiance is cozy and welcoming, making it the perfect spot for a relaxing meal or catching up with friends. The staff is friendly and attentive, ensuring a pleasant dining experience. I highly recommend trying their signature dishes and indulging in their freshly brewed coffee. Can't wait to visit again!“

“I have been eyeing Earl's sign about fresh roasted turkey and today I gave it a try (delivery). I have to say that Earl's is a real gem!Turkey sandwich with cranberry sauce: Just divine! Turkey is so tender that it is falling apart (like pulled chicken). Bread is whole grain, fresh, and nice mix of seeds.Garlic chicken sandwich with roasted peppers: my husband said it was really good.Vegetable sandwich (with balsamic vinegar or basil mayo): Excellent, chock full of mushrooms.Salad (with chicken): excellent. We particularly enjoyed the fresh apple slices (tasted like they had lemon juice). The dressing, though, was unexpected, only vinegar (no oil). We ended up using our ranch dressing we had on hand and sprinkled a little vinegar on top.So glad to have tried Earl's and we will definitely do it again (can't stop thinking about the turkey!).Update 3/3/24 We just finished our lunch of Mona Lisa (veggie) and Turkey and brie sandwiches and I am thinking of mine (turkey and brie). The best sandwich I have had (maybe ever). My husband really liked his Mona Lisa, too.“

“My daughter & I visited this eatery on our trip to DC and absolutely loved everything about it! We got the chicken 1 sandwich & the Greek Goddess, along w/ tomato soup & quinoa chili, & lemonade! Everything was fresh & near perfect. And the owner was delightful to talk to. Wish we had something like this where we live!“

“We frequent McAlister's quite often. The first time I ever had it was in Texas and I was happy to introduce it to my wife. So when we saw them put one in our area we were excited. We've had nothing but great customer service at this location and really appreciate everything they do and all the people that prepare the food. Thank you“

“Probably the best sloppy joe I’ve ever had. I rarely leave reviews, but this place deserves it, 100%. The guys who make the magic happen inside of this establishment are always happy, and welcoming, leaving you with a memorable TASTY experience. Also, the hot dogs are out of this world. Will keep coming back as long as they’re open ❤️“

“First time at Grazie Grazie, and it's not bad !The food is correct, the size is big, especially the sandwich. The salad was good too, even if it was a little bit too much dressing in it. I found the bottom of the lettuce in my salad (last photo). You never put this part in a salad, that's a big mistake...Overall, it's a good stop to eat quickly.The service is fast.Decoration is nice.“

“Not sure why I haven't been here but glad I stopped in today. I had been greeted with a friendly smile and great smell of breakfast food being made, but sadly I just needed a caffeine pick me up and also something to keep me warm on this windy day. I got the spiced chai latte with caramel syrup and oat milk and honestly Starbucks you can eat your heart out ! This place knows how to make a good cup of chai. Perfect temp without even having to tell them, fragrant, tasty and just wonderful with each sip I took. I love love love pastries and they had some good looking options. The menu has just the right amount for breakfast, lunch or a nice pick me up. Will probably come back everyday if my wallet permits definitely gotta check this place out!“

“The food is delicious! I luv their crab cake egg rolls, Hennessy wings, lemon pepper wings. This new spot is beautiful and cozy inside. The owner provided excellent customer service. I'm excited about this new location!! I see great get togethers there.“

“This is my first visit to this location of Hot Lola’s. I had a three piece tender basket. The chicken was nice and hot and fresh, and the waffle fries were delicious! The service was a bit slow, especially given that there were no other customers, but all in all, a good experience.“

“This deli makes the best hot sandwiches to go! The market section also has a variety of interesting and unique snacks and drinks you cannot get at other stores around here. It's nice to have a little slice of NYC's Chelsea Market here in Courthouse.“

“I love a good ole Charlie's steak and cheese close to my house . The steakum is pretty well seasoned. The chicken & cheese is pretty good as well as the flavorful wings. Always hot and fresh. The strawberry lemonade it bomb ! The staff is friendly and professional. I hate the ppl hounding for money outside everytime I go but overall pretty good place.“

“This is something I would call a "if you know then you know" type of place. The location is not the best unless you live in the neighborhood, quick bite to eat good service, consistent food. The owners have been there a long time and we appreciate it.“

“Delicious casual eats with a nice menu that everyone will be able to find something they want to try. It does get crowded on the weekend so use the Open table app to easily book a table. Make sure to try the Italian soda we did the blueberry / vanilla sans alcohol and it is the most delicious thing!“

“This place is across the street from my house, so if I'm home and craving a sub, i go to Mother Rucker's. Their subs are solid. I've only ever had the veggie and the tuna sub. Staff is friendly and efficient. Pro tip: get your bread toasted. If not the wetness of the oil/vinegar/wet ingredients will make your bread soggy. There's never a long wait, so you're able to get in and out quickly. They have a good selection of chips as well. They accept cashapp as payment.“

“We stayed at the Melrose which was great but we were able to go right next door to the most friendly little place. We ended up coming over every morning for breakfast and even had some evening sandwiches. Prices were very reasonable and a good selection. If you're staying close give it a try you'll be happy you did. It was great !!“

“Awesome staff and customer service! I don’t usually bother to write reviews but it was exceptional. One gentleman in there was really going above and beyond. Watched other customers come through and receive the same quality service. Great service, quality food. Keep up the great work crew! Galatians 6:9“

“They deserve an award for the cleanest restaurant in a fast food place, first! Then the sandwiches we ordered were great! All of the salads and toppings were fresh! Service was quick and attentive. Plus the prices were reasonable. I am definitely coming here again!Kid-friendliness: They had a good kid's menu or you could order the 4 inch version of adult 8 inch sandwiches.“

“Ok, so it was a little pricey. Regular sized (9 inch) bacon cheese steak. Regular combo came with a standard size fry and drink. 19 bucks including a 10 percent tip. Took a little while, but I tell you, when they brought my sub out, it was probably the most visually appealing sandwich I've ever bought. It looked even better than the advertising picture. In retrospect, I should have took a pic myself to share, but I was hungry, so, you know. And it tasted nearly as good as it looked. The bread was awesome and the toppings were just thick enough that some fell off on the tray with every bite. And I think they actually fry their bacon unlike Subway, it was crispy. The fries were pretty basic, but they have Cajun style, which I didn't see when I ordered but I'd imagine they'd be pretty good. And the staff were pretty good. They were cutting up with each other, not enough to be obnoxious or unprofessional, but it seemed they were having fun. In conclusion, if youre the kind of person who doesn't flip out over spending 20 bucks for a sandwich, I say go for it.Vegetarian options: They'd probably give you a sub with just vegetables, but it's not their thing, only a few vegetable options.“

“M2M is one of my favorite places to go on the Avenue. Simple but delicious food, and a huge selection of beers. I love to just grab a sandwich and a beer and enjoy lunch at a table outside. It's such a pleasant way to pass the time in beautiful Del Ray!“

“As someone who loves subs and was fortunate enough to grow up with Florida pub subs, this is probably the best subs I’ve ever had. The italian is classic and cannot disappoint, and the fried chicken was also delicious. There’s no seating for lunch, but you can sit in the little park at the intersection with lots of shade.“

“I came to get some breakfast while waiting for a family member to get done surgery at GW Hospital. It is about an 8 minute walk from the hospital.Bacon egg and cheese on a bagel sandwich was actually pretty good. There could’ve been more meat however it was really inexpensive which made it worth what I paid for. There are a few tables inside and some outside as well.Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a quick, good, and inexpensive breakfast sandwich.“

“This is the local sandwich shop/cafe for all of us that work in the area. They serve breakfast and lunch. I strongly recommend if you want a good sandwich because it's the only spot in Rosslyn that has a solid sandwich. My colleagues and I have been here many many times. It's not winning any food awards. However, the sandwiches are made fresh, tastes great, and priced just right. Strongly recommend if you work in the area or just visiting.“

“I loved my experience here ! Very kind and considerate women! her name is tinesha! I was carrying my baby and she told me if I wanted to go leave the drinks first that my food was coming out ! She was very efficient as well by the way! Made me feel welcome and not to mention helpful! I’d love to come back again and visit !“

“The food & atmosphere is good but it's the service that makes this place great. My family and I visited the African American History Museum & we stopped by this coffee shop. The shop which is about 7 walking minutes from the Museum but our experience here jump-started the day.“

“One of the best options at Washington Union Station food fair. Service is fast and the food is full of flavor. They take special care of the presentation of the food and the freshness of the ingredients. You can tell from the first bite. The food fair's atmosphere is good.One of the best options at the Washington D.C. Union Station food fair. The service is very fast and the food is full of flavor. They take great care of the presentation and freshness of the ingredients. You can notice it from the first bite. The atmosphere of the fair is very good.“

“This is my 1st time at Danny’s. I’ve always driven past it but would say it’s a nice hole in the wall kind of place. I couldn’t be more pleased with their service. They were very friendly, provided quick service and great portions of food at a reasonable price. I has their General Tso’s Chicken and a steak and cheese egg roll. It did not disappoint! I will definitely be coming back to try other items on their menu.“

“I only recommend eating there because the food was good. However now since the takeout of real meat and replaced with lab grown meat I won’t be returning. I don’t consider it food for the Hueman!.Parking: Inside of Pentagon City Mall precisely“

“Service was great and didn't take too long with our orders. The staff was really patient with us picking our food. It was somewhat busy so we took a minute to find a spot. They have seats outside as well but it was too cold. Here's what we got there: * Chocolate Moelleux Cake - we loved it! On their website, they describe it as French version of a brownie. Spot on. This what I would expect it to taste like. It's not as sweet as an American brownie because of dark chocolate. * Napoleon - we've tried napoleon before but this one was different. The pastry wasn't as flaky, but that's not a bad thing. Custard was not too sweet, which balanced out well with the glaze on top.“

“This place has a side street cafe vibe, cause it’s a side street cafe! It was nice and quiet. They have an open kitchen which it’s always nice to see your food and the people preparing it.The food was nice, a bit pricey, but it is DC.The falafel warp was great, and tasted authentic.The French toast and pancakes were a hit with the wife and children.Overall it’s a good place to eat, if you’re in the middle of DC stop in!!!Vegetarian options: Falafel ? wrap“

“This is my favorite restaurants in the general area of the Washington Conversation Center, and best Potbelly I've ever been in. I am one of their "regulars", and they are consistently good. So I am not baseing this glowing review off of one good experience.Kid-friendliness: While they don't have a kids menu, of the downtown DC restaurants I've been in, I guarantee the staff will be as "kid friendly" as a place can be. Even when peak busy, it's calm enough not to add fuel to a kids energy level.Wheelchair accessibility: Entrance and restaurant on the same level surface. However, the doors are not motorized; but appear fairly light and nice big, easy to grasp, handles. There is no latch.“

“I need to go here more often. Super simple food counter with great breakfast sandwiches, lunch options coffee, etc. I stopped by the other day bc I went to Slipstream for coffee but their food choices were too foo-foo. I just wanted a regular bacon, egg, and cheese. Looked across the street, saw Atrium Cafe and immediately walked over. Went back the next day for a cheese steak. It was really good but a little small.“

“While touring DC, my cousin had a cheesesteak craving, and this place was within walking distance. It was around 3 PM on a Wednesday, and there was no one else inside. They had a lunch special - buy one sandwich, get one free. Unsure if it's worth it at full price, but it felt like a steal at half price. The Girard Ave and Classic Cheesesteak were filling and tasted like high-quality sandwiches. We also tried the Love Park Salad, which had an excess of mozzarella cheese but was otherwise quite good.“

“Overprice but it’s downtown DC what do you expect? Ignore all the reviews about bad attitudes. Everyone here has been nice to me and I’ve been coming for a year. Just some Boujee moody people coming in through that door. Stay blessed Pret !“

“This is my favorite Sub spot. My In laws asked my Wife about this place so I had to let them try it out. I ordered 4 Subs everyone was very satisfied with the quality of subs. The service is excellent and workers are genuine. Keep up the good work… This is my go to spot for subs…“

“I forgot my lunch and had been hearing a lot about Phillips, so decided to take the walk. The line was actually less long than expected and told so I was excited about that and the food looks very fresh. I decided to get a turkey club added, bacon and dressed up how I wanted to with a side of kettle chips and a brookie. To my surprise, this was totaled to about $20. The price is outrageous, I probably won't be returning, unless I am treated or forget my lunch again and reach starvation however, it was a pretty good sandwich. I will give them that. The brookie was OK as well. - I'm glad I had my bottled water at my desk lol“

“BABY! This spot has some of the best sandwiches me and my boyfriend have had in a while. The young man at the register helped me pick my sandwich (the veggie pita) and it did not disappoint. Happy to have found this hidden gem in Crystal City.“
