One of the few places with a dedicated gf pizza oven. The pizza is great. They'll also make a gf "focaccia" using the pizza crust which is also delicious. They also have gf pasta.
Expect a vibrant atmosphere with fresh, handmade dishes and strong flavors that make it a must-visit in the area.

First time eating Mexican food and we fell in love with it! The staff is super helpful and kind, their suggestions made our day and the entire menu is gluten free. If you are not used to alcohol though the frozen margarita is really strong, be careful.

The food was very disappointing. We had the lasagna, the basil chicken pasta. The taste was mediocre, the gluten free pasta was good. The portions, especially the lasagna was ridiculously small. We got cocktail, something with ginger, lemon, honey that was flat and bland. The afogatto was also average.
The service was pretty good and the place was packed.
Experience a vibrant Mediterranean brunch spot with endless small plates, a delightful drink selection, and a charming atmosphere perfect for gatherings.

the cozy experience
This restaurant has great atmosphere, really accommodating servers and really beautiful decor. We called ahead they do allow outside cake but we needed to bring our own serving materials so we came prepared cutlery, plates, and knives, but it turns out you only need bring a knife and cut it yourself to avoid the $3 per person cake fee that we learned about upon arrival. (On the phone they just said bring everything and they ended up bringing out plates and silverware??) But no cake fee was incurred so that was nice!
THE MENU did a great labeling of dietary restrictions cause our group had a celiac, nuts allergy, and dairy allergy separately which made it hard to share plates and eat family style as intended. However our server didn't know which dip was which on the sampler platter and we had a brave allergic and restriction-less soul figure it out but she wasn't sure other than the fishy one.
Also I had a coconut allergy and that ingredient wasn't listed but must have been in some of the dishes cuz my throat was a little itchy when I left.
However this is a fancy restaurant and I was disappointed in almost everything I tried. Dip platter was hit and miss the cauliflower was the best but it's hard to mess up cauliflower, the rice seemed like it had cloves in it, I wouldn't have ordered it if I'd noticed that in the ingredients list, the borek was most disappointing of all, and the portions where tiny. The beef noodles the meat was hard. My friend that ordered the lamb kebab seemed most happy and she's the only one who finished her portion without comments. I will say other people liked the borek and maybe Turkish neighbors at the dupont farmers market raised my expectations for that particular dish too high cuz they give me really good and big borek every week lol.
Price: We spent 50-100 per person that included a compulsory 20% tip but it would have been in the 35-40 range if we hadn't been covering for the birthday girls portion.
Expect a mouthwatering experience with a vibrant atmosphere, top-tier service, and rave reviews for unique dishes and desserts.

We enjoyed a great dinner at Joe's. We were able to get a last-minute reservation while in town for one night. The food was excellent, but the service was top-notch, and I would give our server, Jeffery, 10 stars if I could.
First, they were extremely accommodating with my extensive food allergies. My son and husband have no food allergies, so they got to enjoy a lot more than me.
I opted for the grilled seafood platter that came with scallops, lobster, and shrimp and for a side sautted mushrooms. Everything was made gluten-free, also dairy, soy, peanut, and treenut free.
It was hearty and delicious and I don't often enjoy a meal so much, especiallyseafood. It's hard to find places that can accommodating me.
My son got filet with crab Oscar and my husband a ribeye with bearnaise. They shared a mashed potatoe and a lobster mac.
Jeffery was attentive and funny, and we enjoyed his stories. It made the experience even better.
We are looking forward to eating there again next time we are in town.
This spot buzzes with energy and offers attentive service, making for a great dining experience with a focus on food safety.

Had a great time here! I have celiac disease which can be very stressful when traveling. This place was suggested to me as they have protocols to avoid cross contamination. After placing my order a manager came over and said my waiter had let her know that I have an allergy/sensitivity and that they take it ver seriously. She said they work hard to ensure there is no cross contamination and that my food would come out with a red flag to confirm it is gluten free. This made me feel very comfortable as I didn’t even ask to talk to anyone they just did it! I had gluten free rigatoni alla vodka which was good. I was so happy with the service that I came back today for breakfast and had some of the best home fries I’ve ever had! Highly recommend this place, food, staff, and atmosphere are all great.

Ordered a gluten-free pizza, they charged my credit card, then set my wife a text saying they are out of gluten-free 2 minutes before the delivery time. You can't talk to a live person and mo refund. Wth never got the pizza.
Absolutely fabulous experience. Our waitress was wonderful, customizing our "tour of the world" to accommodate my gluten allergy. Every single dish we had was amazing.

DC Pizza was amazing! I built my own pizza and it was phenomenal. I got the gluten-free crust and it was incredible. It is definitely on the thinner side, but the regular crust seemed to be more typical and doughy. I also got the spicy tomato sauce which was the highlight of the pizza alongside the hot honey. Surprisingly, the vegan cheese melted evenly as well and didn’t overpower any of the other flavors. Overall, I highly recommend this place and would absolutely eat here again. I especially recommend this place for those with dietary restrictions. They can easily accommodate vegetarian, gluten-free, and vegan diets.
With unique kiosks for easy ordering and a mind-blowing array of toppings, you'll experience tacos that are a game changer for any taco lover!

Obsessed with this place. Was in Dulles for two weeks and managed to get down to DC twice and went to District both times. I had their breakfast tacos the first time and their regular tacos and chips/guac the second time. You order on kiosks which is fun and easy and get to choose between like 25 different topping options. Their corn tortilla tacos come double wrapped and all bundled up together so they taste authentic and delicious. I got pretty much all the toppings. Their medium salsa is to die for. They have impossible chorizo and an option to select Gluten Free which was amazing. The guacamole was flavorful with a nice hint of lime. I love a good taco but these tacos were life changing🤌🏼
Enjoy a relaxed, classy vibe with generous family-style portions and delicious options, perfect for sharing and special occasions.

The chocolate torte is so incredibly delicious! A must-order!
I am gluten free and they are very accommodating. The chocolate torte is gluten free, in addition to many of the pastas. We ordered the gluten free sausage and broccoli pasta, which was very good. The sausage is not spicy (which I like).
This vibrant spot offers a lively atmosphere with festive decor and bold flavors, making it a must-visit for an unforgettable dining experience.

Filomena is one of my absolute favorite restaurants in DC. Everything about it is delightful - the food, the service, the ambiance. Decorations are always changing for the season and so fun. The burrata appetizer is seriously one of the best things I’ve ever eaten, and they have delicious gluten free pasta. Love, love, love!!

There is a difference between a weekend menu (eggs Benedict and oatmeal) and a week day menu (not as good) so do not be fooled. They did make and exception to allow for the oatmeal since I can not have gluten making the service great.

Overall, it's okay. The premise is that you realize that this is a bar and not a pure restaurant. Evaluate the food with 4 stars based on bar standards and 3 stars with restaurant standards.
Business was very good. There were still many empty seats when I took my seat at 16:55. By 6 o'clock, it was full and people started queuing up. The environment is very good, but there are two problems. First, the music is too loud, which somewhat affects the dining experience; second, there are a lot of fine dust floating in the air, which is very conspicuous in the sun.
Taking advantage of happy hours, I ordered a dirty martini. Between vodka and gin, I chose the gin, which was average and not very tasty. Gambas al Ajillo garlic shrimp is not delicious, not very fresh, has a fishy smell of quick-frozen shrimp, is not processed very well, and is far inferior to Jaleo's garlic shrimp. Roasted pork belly is crispy and charred in the mouth and delicious, and the aroma of fat is fully brought out, but it feels too greasy as you eat it, and the layer of aji amarillo sauce underneath can't relieve the greasiness. Flank steak is also delicious, but sometimes the burnt parts are a bit bitter. Eggplant caponata is very cool and soothing, and goes well with greasy pork belly. Jamon Serrano ham is very delicious, delicious and refreshing. Bread is free and tastes average. It's okay to dip it in olive oil. The grilled octopus still tastes like Chinese gluten, which is not delicious.
Finally, I want to complain about the price: tapas in Spain focus on cost-effectiveness and affordability, but in the United States, the price is several times higher. Paying a lot of money to eat a small dish, to some extent, loses the original fun of tapas. Japanese restaurants in the United States, especially izakayas, also have similar problems.
All things considered, it's worth revisiting occasionally.

The food is quite good. I really enjoy the oysters Rockefeller as it is one of the first I have seen that is gluten free and tastes good. Typically I order the steak frites which is always good. The other times when I have ordered things such as the chicken sandwich and schnitzel, I have not always been pleased. I believe the chicken sandwich is juicy, but a tad bland. For the schnitzel, it is definitely not traditional. I saw the idea of what was being put out, but it did not fully resonate with my palate. Nonetheless, I hope to be back soon for a couple drinks and oysters.
Unique vibes and fantastic service make this a must-visit for delicious cuisine—perfect for special occasions or casual hangs.

I had heard many good reviews and had wanted to try this restaurant for a while. The restaurant is a nice place to have dinner with friends, enjoy a date night, or have a drink at the bar by yourself. I really liked the ambiance and atmosphere of the restaurant, and the service, food, and drinks were good. I also appreciated that they had many vegan and gluten-free options. Our waiter recommended the 40-layer lasagna, and it was good. I will definitely be back for drinks and to try other items on their menu.

I had high expectation for Zaytinya and the food was absolutely delicious but the service and atmosphere could have been much better.
We ordered one drink and it showed up 30 minutes after our food showed up. The atmosphere was also not amazing.
But we did wipe our plates clean. They gave us some carrots and cucumbers as a gluten free option to replace the pita.

Fantastic food and people!! Busy night and the food quality is beyond amazing. They have lots of gluten free options and even served gluten free bread with butter upon request. The service was a bit chaotic because of it being so busy and possibly under staffed. We ended up waiting a long time after the meal to pay our bill and the bill had an error on it, so be sure to check it! That being said, the wait staff were very kind and helpful! Will definitely be back :)

Silver is one of the easiest places for us to eat when we are in D.C. They are busy, but we have no trouble getting a table. I think we made a reservation for Sunday brunch, though. The food is good. I have gotten the Salmon Sliders twice, but will hopefully remember not to get them again. It may be because I have to have them use gluten free bread (that often changes the dish) but they are bland - just pieces of salmon on bread really, so I can't recommend them, but like I said, could be from the bread switch. In general though it's good food, nice place and easy and we always enjoy eating there. For parking for the Wisconsin Ave location, park in the lot near Giant/CVs - then have Silver validate your ticket for free parking!

I recently visited Vegz in the US, Washington, DC and had a fantastic experience! I ordered the Mysore Masala Dosa (V, GF) and Samosa Chat (V), and both dishes were absolutely delicious.
The Mysore Masala Dosa was perfectly crispy, with a wonderful blend of spices that made every bite a delight. It was gluten-free and vegan, which was a huge plus for me. The Samosa Chat was equally impressive, with its tangy, spicy flavors and fresh ingredients.
The staff was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. I highly recommend Vegz to anyone looking for authentic and tasty Indian cuisine. Will definitely be returning on my next visit!
The food remains delicious and the service, especially, around the bar, has been much better. Huge restaurant with several dining areas including a couple that can be sectioned off for a big group/ party. Lots of outdoor seating as well. It's usually busy but it's worth the trip just for the flour tortillas. If you have gluten intolerance, my apologies. The fajitas (all types) are by far my favorite. The newish brisket tacos and fish tacos are also on my short list. The chimichangas were also good. I also love their chips and salsa. The salsa is a little watery but I still like it more than most restaurants. I'm glad this place has stuck around with all the new restaurants and upgrades to this area.
Just ok for gluten free. A few GF sides like sweet potato mash and collard greens, but don't understand why baked beans and potato salad aren't gluten free (they can be made so easily!). Lean brisket was good flavor but not as tender as other places. And really should have more than one BBQ sauce (but at least the one was GF).
A go-to spot for memorable events, offering a stunning outdoor patio, excellent service, and a venue that impresses every guest.

I’m not usually a huge fan of Greek food (I mean, it’s fine, just not my favorite). When I saw this place makes homemade gluten free pita, I just HAD to try it and I am SO glad I did!!
Not only the only gluten free fresh pita I’ve ever had, it was delicious. Everything g my husband and I ordered looked, smelled, and tasted fabulous. Will absolutely eat here again.
I’ve you’re not overly familiar with Greek food and want to give it a try, start here! You won’t be disappointed.
