Steam Cafe Pizzeria - Washington DC

Wow! Let me say this place is so peaceful and quiet. Perfect for catching up on laptop errands like emails, Facebook, or just to skip out on the significant for a couple hours. This brasserie's wonderful atmosphere and large selection of food warrants a great review and spreading the word!

I love their waffles they are very delicious and I also enjoy the company of the people that work there. Very nice people :

Only tried the pizza but it was pretty awesome. I hear their pastas and tapas options are equally delicious and I believe it. Tried the goat cheese, tomato and spinach. Spinach was fresh wilted and hadn't been put through the pizza oven, which is a nice touch. Dough was chewy and properly charred, sauce fresh and full of tomato flavor. Great neighborhood spot for a quick bite or a nice dinner. Service was attentive but not overwhelming. Plus it was very affordable.

Overall, the pizza was delicious and filling. The crust was not too thin and not too thick, and perfectly cooked. The sauce tasted unique although I prefer a bit more spice in my sauce. Good and efficient service too

I absolutely love this place! Every time I'm in DC, I make it a point to go out of my way and stop here at least once for breakfast. They have the most amazing oatmeal I've ever found at a restaurant. So amazing, in fact, that I've tried to replicate it at home to no avail. *sigh* I suppose that will just make me have something to look forward to every time I visit. Oh... By the way, be sure to try the house latte too. It's a little on the sweeter side for you more sensitive pallets, but you might be able to have it adjusted in advance. Regardless, it's just a warm, cozy kind of drink. Very relaxing indeed.
