I would come back here when I get to visit DC again. Food was great albeit a smaller menu. Drink selection was good and they were tasty too. Gluten free, celiac safe with corn quesadillas.

We came in and ordered the Buffalo 66 and a Maverick with gluten free dough and vegan cheese. This is how you pizza! I wanted to take pics but I ate over half of it already.

Do not eat here. Worst restaurant experience I’ve had a long time. Pho came out completely wrong with multiple ingredients missing. We asked where the cilantro was and was told they were out. Meat was extremely tough and broth tasted like chicken broth with a lot of cracked pepper in it. We also ordered an appetizer that never came out. I had to ask about it and didn’t even eat it because we were already done and it didn’t taste fresh at all. Went to pay for our order and was verbally told that I wouldn’t have to pay for the appetizer, but was then charged for everything. I had to look at a menu and question it after the fact. The manager came out and argued with the staff in front of me. Then, I was was told that next time if I don’t like something I need to tell a waiter instead of waiting?!? She picked up the ringing phone and after she was done I had to remind her that our orders were completely wrong and we were told we didn’t have to pay for the appetizer. The worst part is that I am having an allergic reaction to gluten. Pho is ALWAYS gluten free in DC, so please do not go here if you have an allergy!

This is standard Ethiopian food, which we love. It's all well seasoned. Service is incredibly slow. We were there for a late lunch. Only 1 table was occupied when we got there and they got their food shortly after we arrived. There was one waitress who would sit in the back at the bar and would come out to bring you various orders, but never check on you. I got my water refreshed after we paid the check and were aboit to head out. So, please budget a lot of time for dining in. They start you off with complimentary bread, which was a bit hard. We ordered the vegetarian sampler 2 with fried croaker and another side of the croaker, which comes with the diced tomato salad (i dont recall the name of it). The vegetables were a good portion size and delicious. The fish were small, a tad longer than the length of my hand. The fish was ok (not well seasoned and a bit charred, which was surprising). I ordered gluten-free injera (teff flour) and was charged $4 for the injera on the plate and another $4 for the injera on the side. I love Ethiopian food, and we are pescatarians who don't typically eat tilapia, so finding Ethipoian restaurants, convenient to us, that meet those standards is tough. Ethiopic does, but it is on the pricier side, and service is very slow.

Good range of options including tacos, burritos, rice bowls and arapas. Vegiie, vegan and gluten free options available, but limited. Fried plantains available and very good. Lots of outdoor seating, kid and pet friendly. Very limited indoor seating from what I could tell, just a few bar stools.

Had an absolutely amazing time at this Thai restaurant. Came during happy hour and got some cocktails, appetizers and then dinner(pad Thai with shrimp and pad Thai with chicken). It was great that they marked gluten free on the menu, so I knew there were quite a few options. Loved the ambiance and the wait staff was great! The window seat is my fave and we’ll totally ask to sit here again next time we come back.

I'm not from the DC area but stopped by with the family to get something to eat. The menus are poorly described. Having a family member with allergies, soy and gluten, their menus don't accurately describe what is in the dishes. Once we received the dishes, and found soy in our bowls even though they were NOT outlined in the menu...we brought it to the attention of the staff. We were told oh well, we already made the bowl and that's how we make it. He also explained that the cooking staff has no control over the menus and they just make the food as told. Choosing to not make a scene, we wanted to order something else but specifically asked if the purity bowl could be made without the edamame. The staff explained it doesn't matter because all the dishes were made in soy oil anyway (including the ones we already ate). Definitely a 0 star restaurant - poor presentation of the food, poor description of the menus, and horrible horrible customer service. In my 30 plus years as plant based, this was the worst restaurant experience to date. Buyer beware.

Food was excellent; love the spicy sauce options! The hummus was great….we requested veggies instead of pita bread (I’m gluten intolerant)…tomatoes, cukes, red bell peppers (decent, would have liked carrots also but that’s nitpicking). Hummus was among the best I’ve had. Chicken Peri Bowl was good; I had medium spicy and enjoyed it with rice and veggies. Wife had a chicken burger (very good) with coleslaw and sweet taters; my buddy Mark had 1/4 chicken with fries and sweet taters. Slaw was top shelf; taters were also very good. Cool building; a lot of character. 4.5 stars out of 5 overall. Thx Tonyae — very friendly.
