“Eclectic mixture of offerings.Ukrainian borscht is true to what I remember from childhood. Halibut with coconut sauce is brilliant. Steak medallions complement a very Ukranian potato and are of highest quality. The owner, Olena is amazing and sweet.“
“I'd come back for a slice. Located inside the Western Market on/near GW University. A little hard to find, yelp map doesn't match actual location (used google maps instead). Ordered a half margarita half pepperoni pie. Was hungry so ordered a slice of margarita pizza while we waited. The slice was awesome!!! The crust was crispy airy and delicious. Disappointed a little with the crust on the whole pie... it wasn't crispy at all... a little chewy. Tasted like two completely different pizza spots. Service was friendly. There was room for small or medium sized groups with seating in the back or out in the market place walk way. They had a large selection of drinks including beer/wine/etc.“
“The food was really good. They provide big portions. I ate half of the Apollo grain bowl and saved the rest. The amount of food you receive and the quality of the food is worth the price. Each dish seems pretty customizable. I will definitely stop by again to try other items. The parking situation isn't great.“
“Ambar's newest location does not disappoint. If you know Ambar, it goes without saying the food is amazing. new offerings on the menu gave me some new favorites to add to my already long list. New cocktails for a new address, yes and thank you! The design esthetic is light and refreshing...And the 2nd floor ceiling is an instagram dream. Easily 5 stars.“
“Mike provided incredible service. His dedication to providing excellence was clear from the moment we entered the door through to leaving. He managed to anticipate the needs of everyone who walked in and proactively addressed them. He made each customer feel like there was a personal connection. This was more than just a great customized salad but an incredibly enjoyable experience thanks to his engaging personality.“
“The food here is AMAZING. I'm actually glad this place is far from me and on the expensive side because if it was closer and cheaper I'd be eating here constantly. My table got the waygu egg rolls, Mac and cheese, broccolini, Hawaiian steak, jerk crab cakes, and the jerk lollipop chicken. All of it was on point. Drinks are pretty expensive for what you get. That was probably the only disappointment. Music is a little loud for my liking but it is a minor nit in an absolutely amazing experience.“
“Been wanting to get in to Ruta and finally made it this week. Absolutely a fantastic experience. If you are unfamiliar with Ukrainian food, don’t be afraid to let your server guide you. They will steer you right. If you do know Ukrainian food, you will feel right at home. Delicious food in a fun space—and don’t sleep on the cocktails.“
“I recently visited My Kabul with family and some friends. Having been to most Afghan restaurants in the DMV and being Afghan myself I can say that the food was average. We ordered mantu and spinach for appetizers. Mantu has a good taste, but barely any yogurt sauce on them. The spinach lacked salt and not as flavorful as other restaurants.The kebabs were juicy, however lacking salt. The rice was good as well. Overall food needs improvement and salt please!!The service was great, our waiter was kind and hospitable. The atmosphere was very welcoming and homey. I enjoyed the dining table and chair setup as if we were at someone’s house.Overall, I wouldn’t drive out of my way to come here, but I might stop by if I’m in the area.“
“Wow what a beautiful and cozy bar. The staff were nice and friendly. The drinks were great, especially the paper plane. And the burger and chips were tasty! I hear the cheese and charcuterie boards are really good so I’ll go back for that next time. Highly recommend.“
“This place is a definite vibe. From the books to the welcoming smile you get from the host when we walked in, the waiter was super chill. The very handsome gentleman with locs who brought out our food to the table....The food was excellent by the way lol, and I love the fact that they had plenty of true vegan options. And not just the vegan label but with animal by products in them. I wish I was here longer. I would have definitely attended the poetry to GoGo competition. But I will be back!Dietary restrictions: There are plenty of true vegan options.“
“The chicken Khao Soi was delicious and easily the star of their menu. Staff were super understanding of my family being in a rush and made sure to get us everything we needed in a very timely manner. The restaurant itself is cute and a very cozy spot for lunch in dupont.“
“Cracked Eggery in DC is a breakfast adventure. The team here is not just serving dishes; they are serving smiles, The spotless setting makes for a serene breakfast nook, perfect for savoring their inventive menu options. The menu, it's a treasure trove of innovative takes on breakfast classics, ensuring that both the adventurous foodie and the comfort-food seeker leave satisfied. For a morning meal that ticks all the boxes great service, cleanliness, creativity, and variety.“
“Yia Yia's is a true gem, a short distance away from College Park. I always go here when I'm in the area and it never fails. Large portions, fresh and delicious food. Their big fat gyro and their spanakopita are awesome and I definitely recommend this place.“
“My wife and I were stuck in Washington, DC because of a weather related airplane cancellation. Since it was Christmas Day, our options for dinner were limited. We were very pleased to have chosen the Ottoman taverna. The food was phenomenal. The service was impeccable and I would recommend this to anybody looking for a dining experience in Washington, DC. While it is certainly not cheap, it is not terribly expensive either. The food was unbelievably delicious. Oddly, our Lyft driver who delivered us to the door happened to be Turkish and was telling us how great the place was as we arrived.“
“The staff were all welcoming from the start. The food was AMAZING! The owner came to our table to check on our evening. We were very happy and I must say the Filet Mignon with balsamic glaze was one of the best I’ve ever had and I’ve eaten at 3 star Michelin restaurants . The evening was important to us as we got engaged that day. I highly recommend this wonderful little jewel of a restaurant !!“
“I went there for taco's and I was not disappointed. ? well the portions were a bit snacky ??♂️ I'd have to buy 2 orders to make one meal. AT THE TACO PLACE idk about the other spots. that being said I will be going back. I'll just be making 3 orders instead of 1 I guess. ??♂️??“
“This was my first time visiting Kenny’s Kale and it was just okay to me. I had the UnCraba Kale with the Thee VanKale flavor. The crab meat was backfin meat not lump. It was too much kale in comparison to the amount of crab meat that was on the salad.For the cost it should have definitely been more. I was able to take a third of the kale and place it in the oven to make kale chips which came out great! As I reached near the bottom of the bowl it was a lot of oil and seasoning. Now the crab meat was full of flavor!The service was on point as soon as the young lady finished up the order on the phone, she greeted me, asked if this was my first visit and explained the menu. The space is cozy and inviting, but small. They do have a bar for you to grab a spirit while you wait for your order.I probably would not return on my own, but would definitely take the offer should someone be ordering from here and ask if I would like anything.“
“Came here with my family for tacos were really try and give me only one lemon for for three tacos. The quesadillas were really good. They really big the drinks are for die for the food the sandwiches are not good, but they’re not that bad either the fries are hard“
“I had the experience with Brunch, where I was able to try a little of everything.Cassava is delicious and makes you miss Brazil; the Beans disappointed me a little; the banana dessert is delicious and the rest of the dish is normal.The service is good and I was served in Portuguese.“
“Went here with a friend on a Thursday. We made reservations online which I recommend because it can get crowded around dinner time. Then started bread was good. I got this gnocchi truffle pasta and my friend got bolognese. She really liked hers! I did enjoy mine but it felt like it was missing just a little extra flavor. It was still a good experienc. Sat the patio which was heated and very nicely decorated. I’d love to come back and try other pastas!“
“This is my first time at the Laurel location and I was surprised by how clean it was. I was immediately greeted as I walked through the door. Maddyn helped at check out and provided great customer service. I recently became a vegetarian and I was able to get a delicious bowl that was full of flavor. I would recommend coming to this location, there is always somewhere to park and has a nice outside area for when it’s warm outside.“
“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.“
“We order a couple of sandwiches for take out (we're sightseeing in DC so we didn't want to waste time!) Both were delicious and very fair price for the amount and quality of food. My only complaint would be the service, not very friendly people. But still, I'd definitely come back for another of these!“
“The Greek gyro and the Greek fries were amazing.... and amazingly huge! We went in to get a late lunch just for something to hold us over until dinner, but the gyro was so filling, we couldn't even finish the fries. The flavors, quality and speed were all outstanding, and we are definitely coming back for some lunch Sunday!“
“Authentic Greek food, amazing ambiance, and kind customer service? What more could you ask for? This restaurant serves amazing Greek food and you can tell they care about the food they serve and are very customer focused. I'm currently in town visiting but I know what restaurant is going to be my regular whenever I'm in town If you haven't visited, you need to, and get their famous gyro pita! You will NOT regret it“
“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.“
“I honestly didn't expect that much from HipCityVeg, since I've never had a great experience with vegan fast food. But, wow, I was soooo wrong. Everything we got was so tasty. I loved my crispy chicken sandwich! Our non-vegan friend even went with us and thoroughly enjoyed her meal! She was impressed by the chicken nuggets. I was also pleasantly surprised that the food was organic!“
“We came here for our monthly family dinner night. We wanted to try a new spot. Ambiance - Cute. Really liked the seafood art in the walls. And the smell when you first walked in was incredible. We knew we were going to eat well. Food/Drinks - Hubby and I really enjoyed our drinks. I got La dama. He got the mango mojito. And my daughter also liked her strawberry lemonade. My favorite thing was the corn salad, but it was hard to pick a favorite because everything was so good! Service - 10/10. Everyone was so attentive and they made sure I got good footage for my blog. They kept our glasses full as well. Overall, try this place out! The flavors and customer service are truly amazing. They're going to need a bigger location soon!“
“Godseongbi that is hard to find in downtown DC. The sandwiches are not eye-poppingly amazing, but they are all above average. I didn't expect much from the coffee, but it exceeded my expectations. This is a great coffee restaurant. And above all, the welcome no-tip system.“
“Idk how I went so long having never tried Jets! I attended a football watch party at a friends house (they are from Detroit) and they ordered jets. One slice in and I knew I'd be a forever customer! Sure enough 2 weeks later I found myself in Jets picking up an order placed online. This is the BEST pizza in the area! It's thick and made with high quality ingredients! I will say the night I stopped in the physical shop it was packed! It was a Friday night, and the line extended down the entire shop and out into the parking lot. Even for those of us who had placed an order ahead of time they were running slightly behind getting those orders out so there was a lot of standing around. However, upon arrival, I simply told them I was there to pick up my order and they started working on it right away so that I could grab it quick-ish and head out. I was there for about 10 minutes? Note if you are placing an order online, be advised that the wait will be probably closer to 45 minutes and there's no need to come early because the pizza is not ready LOL. But trust me it's worth the wait and by the amount of customers there I can say that others agree.“
“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.“
“Finally visited this sub shop. Had read about it on Eatery. Glad I went. I got the Teamster Italian Cold Cuts) and the Never Been Cheddar (Roast Beef). I also ordered 2 whole deli pickles. The Teamster reminded me of the subs I used to get at the Italian Store in Arlington. Wonderful. Eat it for lunch. The Roast Beef I will save for dinner. The large pickle was perfect. I will return. They are a bit pricey but I think they are worth it. The only thing missing were napkins.“
“$1 coffee is the best thing I’ve ever seen! Yes, you can get an 8oz cup of coffee for only $1. That means you can get 40 ounces of coffee here for the same price as a 12oz cup from Starbucks! That alone deserves 5 stars. The food is also very well priced, and you can get breakfast for only $3 (or less). The spaces is also good for chilling or studying by yourself or in a group. If I lived close by, I would probably come here every day ??♀️“
“1. Food is amazing I ate pesto genovese with penne paste loved it, I recommend adding without garlicmy son ate penne Alfredo ,they have this complementary rosemary loaf bread which is amazing , we ordered garlic with cheese bread so we were over stuffed had to take it to go2. Attentive while being busy checking on drinks3. More parking in back also it’s okay to park at the salon spots confirmed withy he restaurant on 4/4/24 8pm“
“Absolutely perfect. So glad we found this place. The coffee is excellent, and the food totally slaps. I had the shakshuka. It had the perfect serving size, perfect temperature, and perfect flavor. Little bit of spice, lots of savory, eggs cooked just right. Bread was well toasted and the perfect accompaniment. My cold brew was very good as well. I liked the ordering system too. It was easy and efficient. 10/10 will eat again“
“I ordered catering from Big Greek Cafe for my son’s baptism. The food was amazing, and my family and friends could not stop complimenting the spread. Everyone went back for multiple plates; huge portions and lots of leftovers. Petros and his staff were such a pleasure to work with. Fresh food and quality customer service!“
“Olive Garden is as good as you will get for a chain restaurant. We really weren't going there because the food is top tier, we went because it has a great family atmosphere which ends up making the food taste. Little better. The service was superb for our party of 25 and I would definitely come back just for that. Even when we were leaving the manager (or who I thought) was the manager greeted us all goodbye and made sure our service was good during ordering. Just an added touch of care. Thank you for a great family memory and the price isn't bad either.“
“I was there for the opening day and it was wonderful. The staff are so friendly and had huge smiles on their faces. The line moved quickly and the food was delicious and made exactly to order. The soup was still piping hot when I got back to the office. So happy they finally opened a location in Union Station.“
“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!“
“No lie this place was such a damn unexpected delight! From the exceptional counter service comparable to any restaurant, to the fresh delicious food, variety of offerings, and even packaged market selections like chocolate covered nuts and raisins, to some of the best cookies I've ever had. We had a wide variety of foods from burgers to coconut rice to deli salads and wraps to desserts. The guys working the grill are so nice and helpful and totally work with you giving you what you want. At 12$ for a burger and 3$ pastries and the BEST iced tea selection with guava I've ever had!!! Truly an unexpected affordable and fresh made-to-order treat in this expensive area of an expensive city.Kid-friendliness: Totally chill place to bring kids. Counter service with plenty of seating in a warm dining room with a clear and visible menu and many options for your picky kids. Very relaxed setting where your kids can whine about how not hungry they are, or play their obnoxious YouTube videos without fully humiliating you (lol) while you can still eat a hot meal.“
“Friendly greeting as we arrived. Jennifer gave fast, friendly and accurate service. Our food was served piping hot and was large portions , very tasty. Managers stopped by to assure we were happy with our food and service. A very enjoyable dinner.“

“I had such a good time visiting Kade Leopolds. The service was incredible from the start to finish, Boom took such good care of us at the bar. She is a true joy to talk to and she made us some incredible drinks. We specifically loved the branzino.10/10 would recommend“
“Hooooweeeee!! Let me tell you about Kallisto Steakhouse. As a person who's grown up in areas without halal steak options near me, this restaurant is a blessing to have within 20 minutes of my house.For tonight, I had the top sirloin steak with fries and the lamb platter with garlic bread. The steak was a tad bit overcooked but the flavor profile was spot on and the compound butter made up for any misses in the dish. The mixed veggies and sauce on the side was perfect as well as the fries. Crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.Paired with a live flame, I'd order this experience again!The lamb chops were absolutely perfect, with the right char and flavor. The portion size and garlic bread is really good with the mushroom sauce, giving you no room to move after. I had to take food home.Finally, the Mango Mocktail Mojito was absolutely delightful! Sweet, refreshing, and light at the same time!Overall, 10/10.“
“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.“
“Pretty easy breezy "Chipotle-style" causal Asian restaurant. I like BIBIBOP in general because customers has multiple options to create their own personalized bowls. Actually, I wonder if someone has calculated the number of possible bowl combination. This location is pretty clean with a decent amount of seating for small parties (2-3 people). Also, thought the workers at this location were EXTREMELY friendly and polite. While I wouldn't go out of my way to eat at a BIBIBOP, I definitely would revisit this location if I'm in the mood for a rice and noodle bowl and in the area (e.g., within 4-8 blocks of this location).“
“This restaurant is located outside of the mall next to Five guys. Clean location with friendly staff and fresh ingredients. Everything was in stock. I ordered the falafel and personally didn’t like it because I found it kind of tough and dry. I’ve ordered chicken kebab and lamb here in the “
“Came here for just a shot after work and ended up in a great places with great food.My bartender dimitri was honestly the best. He took care of me and my friends the whole time one of the best servers/bartenders I’ve had yet. I’ll definitely be back!“
“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.“
“Excellent customer service and yummyFresh food from Downtown silver spring Cava. I usually get chicken bowl and the food is amazing the ingredients are always fresh and especially Vicky, she has been a phenomenal manager. Always super friendly and helpful. This cava is amazing, great atmosphere as well. Yo I recommend this location to anyone in the Downtown silver spring area!!“
“A nice place for a char broiled burger. The portobello add-on was great. Lettuce and tomato were fresh. Cheese options are constrained to American and White American... Nothing gourmet, thin patties...they get the burger job done and are tasty.“
