1,000/10 cannot recommend Chaia enough! My wife and I fell in love with Chaia thanks to their brussels sprouts quesadilla and salsa verde, which we would highly, highly recommend. There's also a little park next door that can be used for especially nice days weather-wise. Because of our love for Chaia, my wife and I reached out to Chaia when we were looking for a venue to host a party for some family and friends coming to visit DC from out of town, and they put together an absolutely outstanding evening. Bettina (co-founder/co-CEO) was excellent throughout the planning process, making sure that the party was just as we wanted it. Even as our plans shifted a time or two, Bettina graciously worked with us to make sure that everything would be fine. The vegetarian and gluten-free dishes made accommodating various dietary restrictions incredibly easy, and as expected, the food and drinks were excellent. (Our guests raved to us about the food, especially the habenro pepita dip.) Leyla and Abigail, the staff who were on-site for the event, also went above and beyond to make the evening a great time. We are so thankful we had our celebration at Chaia, and we highly recommend it to anyone else looking for a venue for an intimate celebration!

On 2/10/2025 evening, i ordered the Lewellyn's fine fried chicken with the "GLUTEN FREE" option and for the past 3 days i have been very sick. Apparently, the chicken was not in fact gluten free or had very High cross contamination. I haven't had a reaction this bad from gluten free food in a while. Usually, restaurants are more careful when they offer gluten free food. This needs to be taken off the list seriously before they have a lawsuit on their hands. if they're not going to take the necessary precautions to ensure that it is indeed gluten free, this is a huge accident/issue waiting to happen. I missed my flight two days (2/12/2025) later because i was still recovering from this incident. I will never eat here again. For all my Celiacs, please do not trust the "Gluten Free" label here. You've been warned.

This might be my new favorite bakery. Amazing selection of not just cupcakes, but all kinds of baked goods. Cater to lots of diets, vegan, gluten free, dairy free. It's popular for a reason and can get busy at times but I've always been able to get a few things when I pop in. You can also order ahead for pick up if you want guarantee your selection.
