Nice and intimate as for service I would give them a little break. Some of the servers are NEW and have not got the rhythm of their job. But they all are pleasant. Must try their Crab Cake and Grit

Every one is unique with a different vibe. The food is tasty and affordable . It's a great spot to grab eats at any time of the day. My favorite is the one on U St with Brookland a close second.

While we are just older + disabled (deaf) customers, most of people are young but we love young + interesting environment from Busboys and Poets restaurant . We even get superb service from it... Thx

Key lime pie and the pecan cake is the best! The food is really good and kinda healthy too. Love the vibe.

Brooklander

Good menu esp. for a mixed crowd of omnivores, vegans , etc. Generally nice vibe & space here; solid coffee drinks. Nachos are a good table pleaser! Usually pleasant staff and ok service.

Brunch is a great deal. Portions are large, local organic food is great, and they have an awesome Bloody Mary .

Zach Stockwell

Less a cafe and more of a full restaurant . They also sell a left leaning selection of books .

Markus Tarjamo

The food here is great! Parking is a tough find, though. Also, no ATM here or nearby. A very nice restaurant .
