Entrance on K Street ( near 21st Str intersection)

Had to go for a morning meeting in downtown. It got delayed, I went in search of hearty breakfast. Was a bit skeptical I can find anything good besides coffee and carbs. Found a gem!!! This little cafe is wonderful. Sparkling clean, nice mild music, wonderful smells. I went for a large breakfast ( can easily be a lunch). Followed fellow Yelpers recommendation and ordered Western Omelette Platter. I was not disappointed. I asked for "everything " and there it was: spinach, cold cuts, extra cheese, mushrooms, tomatoes, red and green peppers, I am sure I missed something. The omelette was large, tasty and , of course, made to order. It came with a large serving of tasty potatoes and two slices of grilled bread ( I chose the sourdough). Excellent service: efficient and with a smile. Their grilled sandwiches and salad bowls also look very good. Definitely recommend as a breakfast or lunch place

As a Korean, I find the bibimbap bowl here to be the best in DC (where it's hard to find an authentic one), and I'm so grateful for it. The owners are so warm and kind that I feel at home here for that reason too. Long live Ahra Cafe!

My favorite go to is the chipotle bowl ,but today i opted for the bibimbap. Smells and taste delicious

Great food, quick service. Sometime the staff actually making the food are not the friendliest, but otherwise great.

I stopped here after an appointment to grab a quick bite and was pleasantly surprised. To start,…read morethe employee working on that day was so incredibly helpful. It was Friday early afternoon. She immediately greeted me as soon as I walked in and then went over all their options with me. They do open face sandwiches but she said any can be made into a regular sandwich. She gave me recommendations as well. I decided to go with the chicken open face sandwich but as a regular sandwich and the sea salt caramel latte to go. The latte was really good and was not weak. I ate the sandwich when I got home and it was also very good. The chicken and sumac onions were delicious! The place has plenty seating if you want to just work and drink coffee or order full meals with friends. There is also a good size patio in the front. It's definitely a nice addition to the area.

We enjoyed our morning at Yours Cafe, right before we walked up the street to the zoo. We love that…read morethey had their own coffee bean grinder in the back! The coffee was for sure a stand out. We each got the espresso with whipped cream. Heads up, for a coffee focused place the cream was definitely out of a can. But the coffee itself was amazing. For food we got a pistachio beignet, and a chocolate and pistachio croissant. The beignet is definitely not a beignet- it was a bit more bread like, though it still tasted good. And the pistachio cream, though delicious, was so runny. The croissant was good but also had the same pistachio cream issue. It dripped out. For food I had the bacon flaming tart, which tasted amazing! One thing to note- the menu says capers, but it's scallions. That was a welcomed error, since I love scallions! We also got drinks, and I enjoyed my pistachio beverage. Overall, I'd say out of the options nearest the zoo, this is one of the best.

We stopped by Colada Shop during our trip to DC, and it ended up being one of our favorite meals…read morenear the Wharf! The restaurant is super cute, with a fun cafe vibe, and it's an easy walk from the waterfront. We ordered the Colada Trio, which came with empanadas, cauliflower sliders, and yuca fries. Everything was delicious, and it came with three different sauces that were honestly all so good. I could've eaten those sauces with everything. We also ordered the Platanachos (plantain nachos), which were flavorful and such a fun twist on traditional nachos. They accidentally forgot the cauliflower and mushroom topping, but as soon as I mentioned it, they brought it out right away along with extra sauce. Mistakes happen, but what matters is how a place handles them, and they were incredibly accommodating, which I really appreciated. It was pretty busy when we visited, and I noticed who I believe was the manager or owner helping clean tables and checking on guests. I always love seeing that kind of hands-on involvement. Great food, friendly service, and an awesome location if you're exploring the Wharf. I'd definitely recommend stopping by!

Overall, a 3 out of 5. Came in to take a look at the pastries but ended up getting a plantain…read morelatte. The drink is sweeter than I expected, which makes sense because it's plantain, but it has actual plantain pieces in it. I'd rather it be a syrup instead of little plantain chunks when you sip the drink. It's okay, but I wouldn't get it again. I'd like to come back in the morning and actually get some of the fresh pastries, as opposed to later in the evening. If I hadn't just eaten somewhere else, I definitely would have tried the cuban.
