This is easy and well done comfort food and cocktails. A limited but excellent menu ranging from Duck confit to grill cheese sandwich and hamburgers. This is our go-to neighborhood spot.

This place is one of THE places to go on the DC food scene. Ranked at bon appetites' best new restaurant when it opened and hasn't lost popularity since. However reservations are tough at this 14 seat restaurant so make a reservation WAY in advance. if you really want to get in they do save some seats for walk-ins. You can wait in line at 3pm or 4pm until they open at 5:30pm or 5:00pm(Saturday and Sunday). Or many people use Task Rabbit to employ someone to wait in-line for them and make a reservation for the evening.

This is Hong Kongese food for those with a refined and adventurous pallet. It's one of the more pricey options in the neighborhood but word on the street is that it is one of Jeff Bezos' go-to spots when he is in-town...

They have what many have called the best bagel in DC. But you can expect a line if you are going at peak hours.

This is one of our favorite restaurants in DC. its not as hard to get into as Bad Saint but its not that much easier... If you can get a reservation we definitely recommend. Its high end comfort food with one of the best bakers in town. If you can't go for dinner, try stopping by for a pastry and a coffee in the morning. The have some of the best baked goods in town.

This Laotian food place is really good. Its a hidden gem and at a very reasonable price. If you feel adventurous you can try their "jungle menu" otherwise we recommend sticking to a solid and flavorful menu of Laotian favorites.
