I know it’s just two bartenders down there for the whole area so I understand the wait but they really need to staff it more down there. Cocktails were good!

I think the owner was there. Super busy. Must try if you are staying around the area. DC has beat NY for this type of food. Enjoy my

The waitress tried to change it but she said it was going to take 40 min so she deducted that from the total, which was great! The fried whole fish was good too but uncooked inside so we couldn’t eat itall. One side of the fish had really good seasoning and the other side zero. One kombucha in a bottle was $10 and the iced teawas too diluted. Also, I don’t mind but I’m sure some people do, the bartender girl touches with her hands the lemon sheputs on your drink. I saw her twice in front of the person she was serving so I’m sure most people don’t mind?

I love a lot of the food here, but I have to give a special shout out to a couple dishes: the brussels sprouts are legitimately amongmy favorite dishes in DC. No joke, they’re cooked perfectly. The tofu bahn mi is perhaps the best prepared tofu dish I’veever had (tofu is so easy to mess up! . Both the watercress and papaya salads are excellent. Lastly, the $7 daiquiris are funand refreshing. Can’t recommend doi moi highly enough.
