100% Gluten free. Paradise for celiacs. Chips with guacamole and amazing spicy sauces. Tacos with different meat and fish offerings. Remove the fried prawns, pork belly and duck. All very tasty.

Lovely and cozy eatery serving a variety of classic American and fusion fare, with a wide selection of great vegan and/or gluten-free options. I visited this location for brunch and got their sweet potato skillet, which included a generous helping of brown rice mixed with sauteed kale and sweet potato, then topped with a beautiful poached egg. The meal was simple, yet so incredibly tasty. While their food is delightful, what has made Busboys & Poets a long-time DC favorite and cultural hub is its ambiance. It's one of the main "cool" places in the city, with its relaxed vibes, open mic poetry nights, and adorable little shop featuring small artists from across the District. The K Street location also features a lovely little bar serving both caffeinated and alcoholic beverages, which is a delightful spot to sit if you just want to enjoy a drink or casual meal. The entire staff is super friendly, so sitting at the bar is a surefire way to have a delightful conversation with the bartender, as well as to people watch or just soak in the vibes.

Concept is nice but very poorly executed, no actual Hechsher only basic vegan/parve certificate. (Beware if you are shomer!) Dollar general ingredients and trader Joe's falafel quality. A bit overpriced and tastes nothing like israeli food. Nice place to chill tho . No gluten free pita!!!!

I'm gluten, dairy and soy free and i had the roasted chicken bowl with hummus. It was really good and I had no reaction. They said they are a completely gluten free restaurant, the only dairy is in their crema and the cookie has soy. It was delicious and I might be back during this trip.

I love A Baked Joint. They are knowledgeable about gluten free food, and I had probably the best salad I’ve ever eaten (?) here. I love sitting out at the tables on a nice weather day. A great neighborhood spot! Can’t wait to try the gluten free cupcake.
