La Famosa - Washington DC

Ok I totally hate the contactless ordering, I know pandemic but I feel like it takes away from me talking to the server about the food recommendations and human interaction. The food is a little pricey but overall it was worth it. Good for a date nightwith the mrs./girlfriend would definitely go back if we are in the area.

It's okay. The fried fish is a $50 dollar experience in dry mouth. It needed chili peppers and basil but again this isn't a Thai restaurant so, you may enjoy it. The steak was medium rare and salty. Which by itself isn't a bad thing. But when combined withrice, it was just okay. So, if you're looking for an okay meal, this is it.

5 stars! While the QR ordering and paying the right away feels like it?s taking the service touch away, it makes up with a fast and friendly service, food came out surprisingly fast and fresh! Mofongo was authentic Puerto Rican and tostones were perfect.Definitely coming back to this spot. Staff was constantly checking in and greeting you in and out.

Had an incredible meal two weeks ago at this Puerto Rican joint located in the upscale area of Navy Yard in DC. Prices are all relative to location (DC and I completely understand why each of these dishes were couple of dollars more than what peoplewould expect, but everything was absolutely delicious! I ordered the Pineapple Sazerac, Ensalada de Mariscos, and the ChilloFrito (Whole Fried Red Snapper . When I visited San Juan a couple of years ago, Chillo Frito was easily my favorite dish and i'mglad I was able to get that dish again! The Pineapple Sazerac packed a punch and the drink was infused with pineapple in threedifferent ways, which I loved! There was a Puerto Rican pineapple rum, a pineapple infused sugar rim, and candied pineapple -all which balanced out the smokiness/spiciness of the Rye whiskey perfectly. The ensalada de mariscos was very fresh andbright, and included octopus, shrimp, and scallops. It had cherry tomatoes, green olives, cilantro, small diced onion and sat insome sort of citrus marinade. Put it on top of the crispy, rich deep fried tostones that came with the dish for the perfectbite!. The Red Snapper was the highlight of the meal! If you're not afraid to dive in hands first, and understand andappreciate the size of the dish [easily enough for 2 people....or one Amrith ; then the $38 price tag for it means nothing -trust me, its definitely worth it. The fish came topped with pickled red onions cilantro and came with a spicy cabbage slawthat was tangy, acidic, and packed good heat. Those things paired perfectly with the deep fried fish and was a truly amazingdish! I have the mofongo in my crosshairs for when I make it back to Navy Yard down the road :

I was skeptical at first?. You order through your phone at the table and there?s a self serve water station. It?s a little pricey, i spent $40 for the food and wine in the pic put the staff was extremely friendly, helpful, and the food did notdisappoint. I highly suggest the Mariscos! The seafood is fresh and seasoned really well.
