Incredible Turkish tapas-style meal for the price. Get Soujouk Pide (flatbread), mushroom couscous (vegetarian-friendly), & order extra of the Hunkar Begendi (braised lamb shank w eggplant purée)
Shish taouk, hommus, spanakopita, mushroom couscous, tabbouleh,kebab tasting platter. Lamb tongue soulvaki was special. Small plates. Need to order a lot. Yum.
Their bread & red pepper spread is awesome!!
Try the Butternut Squash And Cous Cous Salad
Amazing food! the chocloate cake is decadent!
Started in South Africa, this chain serves up mouth-watering Portuguese-style roast chicken with a spicy African kick. When they say hot, they mean it.
Try the Madras Curry Chicken, Israeli Couscous, Green Apples, Golden Raisins, Arugula
Best restaurant in DC, consistently good for 10 +years
Sooo good!
Great beer and wine selection. But limited cell phone coverage which makes checking in challenging
Chocolate Stout!!!
Jerry's da best Mayor (Manager) ever!!! -Mr. Champagne
The smoked BLT w/ avocado on everything bagel is spectacular. The smoked salmon salad (in the display window) is also super flavorful. Can't go wrong w/ lox, cream cheese, capers, & red onion.
Lox bagel + avocado is money. Oh, and get a side of bacon. Their bacon is what bacon should be.
Get the bacon, tomato, red onion and cream cheese on multigrain bagel. It was life changing.
The Duck Confit is the best thing on the menu by far!! Try it with a nice Barolo or Burgundy...a pairing made in heaven!!
This place serves up savory spreads, house-made sandwiches, charcuterie and more – plus extras to stock the perfect luxe kitchen and pantry, including wine, olive oil, crackers and much more.
Delicious food. Terrible staff.
The different components to the lamb shank (meat, couscous, etc) blend really nicely for a delicious entree! Tasty!
Best in town for French dishes
Critic Tom Sietsema was "most surprised by Le Diplomate’s reliability" saying it's one of the hardest qualities to achieve. 265 seats w/ patio. 25 cooks are behind the scenes here. 3/4 stars. Read more.
Awesome Italian in DC with a cozy place of only 11 tables.. Too much food in one course for me though
*** stars in Tom Sietsema's Fall Dining Guide 2011. (Tom recommends the lobster with shaved artichokes.) http://wapo.st/p4oJKa
Leave yourself at the mercy of the servers. Whatever they bring to the table will far exceed expectations. Fantastic meal and wonderful service in what feels like a good friends dining room
Best breakfast sandwich - veggie inlet made on the spot. Yum!
The espresso here is delicious though you better bring cash. No credit card charges under 5 bucks.
Great sandwiches, coffee, drink, and snack options. The owners are the nicest people ever, and the food is great!
Terrific hidden gem. Not many places serving cocktails like this
The Obamas celebrated Valentine's Day 2013 at Jose Andres' Penn Quarter restaurant, which left Washington Post restaurant critic Tom Sietsema unimpressed in December 2012. Read more.
With only six bar seats available for dining, this restaurant within arestaurant is arguably the country's toughest reservation to score. Read more.
I love the salad bar for lunch. Lots of selections
They don't sell Half Foods here.
Value Meals, offered in the deli section at all locations, are a great deal. For $6,8 or 10, choose a main dish of chicken or pasta + 2 non-protein sides for $6, vegan +2 for $8, meat/fish +2 for $10.
The broccoli -carrot- cauliflower stir-fry was yummy!!
Don't leave this vegan restaurant leave without the macaroni and "cheese," a pasta so garlicky and addictive it could satisfy any vegan's jones for the real thing (tofu helps give it its creaminess). Read more.
Delicious vegan soul food.
Best chocolate chip cookies in DC. I found out that they sell their cookies to Chinatown Coffee and so when I finally came here I realize that they have the best French bakery around.
if you can speak french fairly well, speak French when you're there, the experience is more enjoyable.
Their ham & cheese croissants sell out everyday for a reason!
Great sandwiches. I always get the chicken Cesar sandwich
Enjoy some of the best eats in and around Georgetown University Hospital! Try the banana pudding!
Must try The McGhee Sanwhich.
Delicious fresh fish of the day. Nothing better than a whole fish, especially a fresh one with crispy skin. Yumm...oh wait, cheese flambe. Read more.
Grilled octupus REALLY is grilled to perfection. Not chewy at all.
The Crazy Feta and harissa here are a must!
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
