favorite neighborhood cafe for breakfast and lunch! exceptional comfort foods, home-like atmosphere, and great service make this cafe one-of-a-kind!
Thinking about holiday gifts? Check out Mercantile Bag, a selection of their oh-my-gawd house-made goodies!
Go for brunch, then get some cookies to go - and enjoy at the park.
One of the better happy hours on capitol hill. Cheap margaritas and amazing tortilla soup.
Best Mexican food on the hill!
Great happy hour everyday from 3-6 and 9-close. Go with a $2 Tecate, and $5 tacos. Or spice up your night with a 32oz beer, and a shot of tequila for rent bucks. Oh yeah, chips and salsa!
This place is amazing: a mix of coffee store, roastery, flagship store, lunch place (Serious Pie). The coffee tasting is awesome too...they also have exclusive coffees and beverages.
My butthole could spend a couple hours here before being "coffee'd out."
Sit at the bar to you can watch the pasta being made. Beautiful! Try the Poached egg with fonduta and local black truffles and the Tajarin with butter and sage- a fine cut egg pasta. top 10 for sure!
Antipasto misto della casa is definitely the way to start...
Best restuarant i know of. Read more.
A great cafe for day or evening! Great cocktail happy hour. A good place where you can take your computer during the day. Porchetta sandwich, beet & quinoa salad & Tennessee heat are my favorites!
Oven roasted free range chicken -- yummmm
Beet and goat cheese salad. YUM!
Obviously, go for the individual karaoke room. It's epic.
Favorite spot ever... Staff is awesome!!
Expensive, but worth it. Make it short and sweet, cuz it's all you in your private room. HH all day Sunday. Room one has speaker/window to the street!
This place is so creative and authentic, I love the twist this tropical paradise adds to Capitol Hill. Try the lychee thieves!
Try the Everything! It's delicious!
Have a rum drink!
The poutine with short rib is sensational. Best poutine in the city!
Mediocre brunch. Service was not particularly friendly. Didn't seem to like kids
Go to Smith. Get a pitcher of Oly. Ask them to add grapefruit juice. yum!
The beet salad is possibly the best salad design ever -- lavender, fennel, beet, arugula. Mmm.
Walk around and check out meat, wine, and cheese shops next door!
Amazing menu, lamb sausage breakfast sandwich is delish.
Wild boar sloppy joe or burger are the way to go!!!!
The beer list is a thing of beauty & the burger is one of the best around. If you're feeling adventurous: the $30 chefs choice menu, essentially a tasting menu inside a burger. [Eater 38 Member] Read more.
Rotating taps are always to be enjoyed. There is constantly something new.
The menu is exceptional and rotates frequently. Current favorites: shishito peppers, butternut squash risotto, water buffalo burger, and pine nut caramel tart - the rosemary whipped cream is heavenly.
The menu's divided into three main categories: Earth (Cappelletti w/ sage, hazelnuts & reggiano, Pumpkin Soup w/ pecorino), Sea (chorizo/smoked cheese Baked Oysters), and Land. Read more.
In chef Tamara Murphy's words: "We’re not Spanish. We’re not Italian. It’s about what’s fresh and what we feel like cooking that day. The menu will always be changing." [Eater 38 Member]
Oysters, mussels, and prawns were great. Decent whiskey and amari selection as well.
Love the fennel sausage with egg and lentils
Small plates featuring a prominent oyster bar. But don’t sleep on the pickled fig burger: it may be small but packs a powerful punch.
Best brunch in the world: Spiked coffee, guac and chips, and fried chicken and waffles.
check out the fancy ice cubes
NY dog all they way! Although I'm not sure what steak & cream cheese have to do with NY but who cares it was freaking delicious. I'm a SoCal boy and dare I say it's better than a LA bacon wrapped dog
get the California Baja
New york all the way!!!
Try the Strawberry With Pistachio Twill, Housemade Whipped Cream And Lemon Bar - What a flavor combo!
Try the burger
Try the Fried Pork And Potato Croquette - Doesn't begin to describe how great it was!
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
