    This is a restaurant that combines tow of my favorite things, donuts and fried chicken. It is a small shop, but it is connected to a larger Beer Hall with the same name. I assume that you could sit and eat at that dining area. They also have a few tables and chairs outside to eat. The donuts are exotic. These are not the kind of donuts that you would buy a dozen of. They are a bit on the pricey side. The place also has fried chicken pieces and sandwiches to go with the donuts. My interaction with them was very limited but, the staff was ok. They did there job. They were not overly friendly and did not provide any advice. I ordered the two piece chicken and a donut (Samoa). It took them about 10 minutes to get my food ready. I took it back to my hotel and ate it there. The donut was amazing. It was so good. The chicken was not the best that I have had, but it was decent and I would definitely get it again. The food here is really good and I definitely recommend checking this unique spot out.

    Quite possibly the best donuts ever. Almost worth a trip back to DC (and I live on the opposite coast).

    Updating my review of the doughnuts: I was pretty disappointed my 3rd time eating Astro's 'nuts, esp bc I brought my doughnut "conoisseur" friend. The holiday flavors we tried were pretty underwhelming, especially for the price. I still stand by their classic PB_J and jelly filled - that's where Astro really shines, but the cream/custard filled ones like Creme Brulee and the toppings-based ones like Maple Bacon were all on the side of being overwhelmingly sugary / saccharine and lacking flavor balance. It was hard to enjoy the actual flavors of the maple, bacon, or brulee custard. The texture of the yeasty (non-cake) varieties were a bit dry, dense, and chewy. These shortcomings stand out when you've recently had Donut Run doughnuts. If they weren't 5-$7 a piece there wouldn't be much room to complain, but for this price, the quality and flavor balance needs to come up a notch or two. Clearly better than Dunkin or 7-11 of course, but Krispy Kreme and especially Donut Run in Takoma Park certainly give a lot better flavor for the price.

    Creme brulee

    Creme brulee is delicious!!! Cream oozes out... Yum!! A must stop when you're in DC. We grabbed a dozen!!!

    This key lime pie donut changed my life.

    I really loved this place! I wasn't sure what to expect, but found myself not just pleasantly surprised, but having one of the best donuts I have ever eaten! The combination of flavor and texture was more than I expected and in a really good way. If I'm ever in DC area again, I need to hunt this place down. FOOD: what they have is right there in the name. Donuts and chicken! We were there a little bit early for lunch so I picked up a breakfast chicken biscuit and a doughnut. The Keylime doughnut I chose was one of the best I have ever had. The chicken biscuit was really tasty. It's kind of biscuits you only get in the south that are flaky and delicious all at the same time. I have had better chicken overall, but this chicken was really good. It was juicy and crispy at the same time and packed with flavor. SERVICE: service was great! I wanted to order a lunch sandwich, but they had not yet opened the lunch menu. But the person behind the counter was able to help me find exactly what I wanted anyway and just modified one of the breakfast biscuits. It was delicious! COST: overall, cost was reasonable for what you get. Because it was so good I would've paid more but overall, in comparison to other places, it was competitive and well worth it.

    Quality ingredients plus freshness equals out of this World deliciousness. Cherry blossom doughnut is a must get. And I'm pretty sure any flavor is great too. Regret not getting any chicken but I was too full. Obvious choice for doughnut lovers. Recommended. Special, Three for three fifty each on the weekend.

    Cinnamon Roll(Sat-Sun Only)
    Alexis M.

    Decent. The cinnamon roll was average, wish it was warmed up. The fried chicken honey sandwich was not bad, but not remarkable in any way. The type of place you don't regret going, but won't go again. The shop is cute and the staff are nice.

    Great and cute little shop! I just stopped in for a quick breakfast as it was one of my last days in DC before flying back to Dallas. I stopped in for a chicken sandwich and a drink. The sandwich came out fast, hot and crispy. I loved it and the sauce that came on it was delicious as well. The staff were very polite and cordial.

    Came in for lunch & there was a small line. Food was delicious! I got the asteroid chicken sandwich with a cheddar biscuit on the side and it was great. Medium was the perfect spice for me and the chicken was fried amazingly. The biscuit was ok, I'd give points for not being dry. I didn't get a chance to try the donuts but will definitely be back to try more of the menu.

    Average donut. Some different flavors but nothing particularly stands out. Service and ambiance were also just average.

    Biscuit with honey butter

    Stopped by for a breakfast burrito with the Astro Sauce and a side biscuit with honey butter. The service was great! It's a smaller space so seating is limited but the food can definitely be eaten on the go. Would definitely stop by again!

    Maple Bacon Donut
    Spooky D.

    OUTSTANDING!!!! OMG this is the level of food and dessert I want and hope to get in Washington DC. These are the most delicious donuts I've ever had across the USA!! We ordered online for delivery as we'd heard this place was great but its hard to get to when you're working all week. We ordered main meals and desserts and were super excited to try it (we've ordered twice since - thats how good it is). Everything that is lacking in some of the other places we've eaten and/or got food is delivered first class here. The quality, flavors, level of moisture, freshness - first class! This is my new favorite for burgers, chicken and donuts and its not near my home but when you get quality food with flavor, you'll pay extra to get it delivered or go there for it! I've lots of options closer to me (walking distance) that fail to deliver this level of excitement for me! We ordered The Asteroid Chicken Sliders to share - you get 3 mini chicken burgers that are babies to the big Asteroid Sandwich. They each come with spicy fried chicken, bibb lettuce, picles, jalapeno coleslaw, combeback sauce on a toasted brioche bun. We got a portion of tator tots to share and also a 2 piece White Chicken portion. We also ordered a range of donuts to share between us so that everyone got to try each of them. The level of flavor, freshness, lushness to both the hot food and the donuts was first rate. This place is worth of being on a Food Network trip to DC show!! Everything was delicious - the sliders are my new favorite, as is the white chicken breast - reminds me of Korean chicken restaurants where the outside is super crispy but the chicken is clean white breast meat,, juicy and hugely flavorsome! My favorite donut was the special Cherry Blossom version that was out during our first order. I also loved the traditional jam donut. The others we tried which were other peoples favorites included the Creme Brulee, Key Lime Pie, Chocolate Caramel Macchiato and the Raspberry Lemonade. I'd would order that Cherry Blossom donut every week if they kept it on the menu. It was delicious and picture perfect beautiful (sorry my photo had a bite already gone!! LOL. I recommend they make that one a regular on their menu. Its so symbolic of Washington DC and our famous Cherry Blossoms not to mention, it is DIVINE!!! Please make it a regular and I'll be a regular!!

    I live ~10 min drive north from this location. This is my second time coming for a private event…read moreand both times I've come, I've said out loud, "I should order takeout from them once a week!!" They operate a deli counter in the front and a bar / speakeasy in the back. You can rent out the bar space for private events. Last night, we had the space (and a bartender!) to ourselves, along with 3-4 different types of sandwiches. There is something SPECIAL about their seeded Italian bread. The perfect flakiness and texture. I enjoyed the chicken fontina and Italian. The caprese was my least favorite--not sure if they use a balsamic or what, but the flavor wasn't coming through. Before I left, I decided to order a large chicken cheesesteak to take home for lunch the next day. It was a bit of a risk to order a hot sandwich that I would have in the fridge overnight but I heated it up in our air fryer/toaster oven for all of 10 mins and the bread was good (not soggy) and the sandwich itself was delicious. I enjoyed it so much, I didn't stop to take a photo until the last bite :) It's a decent size sandwich--I ate half for lunch (along with my own chips and veggies) and have another half for tomorrow so while it's not cheap, I think it's reasonable.

    This place fell way off…read more I was fooled by social media and ordered their Thanksgiving sub... false advertising. Did not look like the video - all bread and extremely SKIMPY. The worst part is they charged me nearly $20 for that abomination. What a rip off. I thought they were decent pre-covid, but apparently they just don't seem to care anymore. Other places make loaded sandwiches... save your money!!

There is metered street parking and commercial lots/garages within a reasonable walking distance from here. They serve wraps, salads, and cold and hot sandwiches. I ordered the Korean Steak Sandwich. It took them about 10 to 15 minutes to prepare my sandwich. They should use a number system for order pickups because people, including myself, had difficulty determining which order they were serving. Many of the sandwich names sounded alike. My sandwich was kind of small for the price, and it wasn't very filling. It was, however, very good. It was flavorful and packed with flavor. The service was ok. It was nothing special. They did their job and did not go beyond or be overly friendly. All in all, I would recommend checking this deli out for some really good sandwiches.

But with that said, it's still a good wrap and I'd get it again but I don't think it's the best wrap I've had or worth going out of your way for. If you're hungry and near by, sure go get it but don't make any special trips just for this wrap. Id love to try their other options on the menu at some point!
