Sum: Tasty and good value for money but small portions and cramped space…read more The good: Ordered quarter dark chicken darkwith 2 sides (spinach and sweet plantains). Everything was quite delicious and cost less than $10 (that's a great deal for the area). The plantains in particular were simply succulent. Service was friendly. The menu was large. The bad: You can't see the rotisserie chicken itself when you order, which is strange for this kind place, where the rotisserie is main attraction. The portion of the chicken was anything but generous and we had to wait more than 5 min to get the food. Also, there wasn't a lot of seating space (in part because one of the (very few) tables wasn't cleared from previous customers). The self-service table cleaning thing they had going on was badly organized (nowhere to put the trays, for example; the trays were also strangely curved, so not the most comfortable to eat from). Everything considered, I'd recommend this place and would return in the future to try out their many sandwich options).

With some fanfare in Popville, I was excited to give it a go since the pictures of the chicken and…read moresandwiches all looked quite good. But knowing the history of that location, I definitely walked up the steps to Cafe Mia with tempered expectations. I stepped in for a quick lunch and noticed that the space was pretty much kept the same, with a few tables and some bar seating towards the entrance. Most of the side dishes are already prepped and sitting in warmers, which I figure it pretty typical and not necessarily a knock. I decided to go with the quarter dark to test out the quality of the rotisserie along with a esquites and mac n' cheese as sides. The former of which was delicious while the latter was eh. But for the star, the chicken was actually quite good. And that's coming from the guy who really doesn't like ordering chicken out since it so often ends up dry and tasteless. But not so here at Cafe Mia. While I didn't get to try any of their sandwiches, which do sound great off the menu and look great on instagram, I think the chicken plate earned them another visit for this hungry eater.

Fajita Sub? Really?…read more Yes..really! Take a look at the pic. It is every bit as delicious as it looks. Every ingredient fresh with homemade sauces and the most perfectly baked bread you can have for a sub. The menu options are overwhelming at first, so I ended up settling on their namesake sandwich. I chose the Carne Asada as my protein and went with the default fajita toppings for the rest. I made use of their homemade sauce station as well to complete the entree. After adding a Sugar Cane Mojito Lemonade, the grand total came to less than $10. This for one of the best sandwiches I have ever had in my life...and it could have fed two people! If you see them, stop, ask questions, and then partake in a delicious adventure of latin flavors!

Best under the radar food truck! Don't let the name fool you! They serve wonderful homemade arepas,…read moreso much better than Arepa Zone. When I was walking past the food trucks in Chinatown, I saw an unfamiliar food truck the next block over and decided to check it out. I saw an overwhelmingly extensive menu of subs and arepas and was about to walk past it, when I saw a familiar face. The kind old owner was bringing Fajita Sub to DC! I used to get arepas all the time from the Fajita Sub Factory (they had a trailer) when I used to live in Silver Spring. Soo sooo good! The owner is so passionate and an amazing cook! She makes the arepas and even the seitan and all of the sauces. I was so glad that I saw her and got the Vegan Dream arepa with Venezulan cheese and plantains. It's only a $1 extra for unlimited toppings. I added the garlic crema sauce on top (the sauces are self-serve, you must try them!). For $10, I had one of the best lunches in DC. Everything was packed with flavor from the cheese, plaintains, to the seitan and grilled veggies and the SAUCE, aww the sauce. Was stuffed afterwards, totally worth it! Even though Fajita Sub isn't on the Food Truck Fiesta app, you can come find them on FB page: https://www.facebook.com/fajitasubfactory/

I'm surprised that this place isn't one of the best reviewed lunch sports in DC. I love this…read morecafeteria and when I went for lunch I was really impressed by the food and the selection. I went for the salad bar. It boasted tons of great toppings including tomatoes, cucumbers, beans, hearts of palm, croutons, fruit and bunch of different pasta salads. My salad was huge and hearty and I devoured it. They also had a really nice selection of fresh fruit. My friend went for the hot food bar, and he too devoured his chicken, rice, macaroni and cheese, and corn. He's a big eater and he was certainly satisfied. The food may have been sitting under heat lamps for god knows how long, but it didn't taste dry at all. Oh to the desserts! They have a frozen yogurt machine and tons of pastries and brownies. Everything was delicious. I highly recommend stopping by if you're in the neighborhood. It's WAY better than your typical cafeteria food and you get to eat (or at least stand in line) with some of DC's smartest people.

It's open to the public and has one of the best salad bars in D.C. and daily soup offerings that are anything but typical institutional fare. Turkey and white bean chili is especially good. It's also really affordable--much easier on the wallet than Chop't or O Salad Mio. They also offer hot dishes--usually a meat entree and several sides and a pizza of the day that is usually worth consideration. If you work in DuPont and feel uninspired by Baja Fresh, Cosi, etc I strongly recommend that you give Brookings a shot.

The Service: I have been to the food truck and the brick and…read moremortar location in Brookland (which unfortunately is closed) and I would say that the Ball or Nothing service is great! They are pretty quick and the wait is never long unless they are really busy, but still fast compared to other food trucks. The Food: I love all of the unique meatball flavors and sides that Ball or Nothing has. The BBQ meatball usually has a kick but pairs well with the mac and cheese. I also recommend the brussels sprouts which has nuts and is on the sweeter side. I have tried the classic meatball and the polenta which are also pretty solid. A lot of my friends like their salad, which has seasonal flavors. Overall, Ball or Nothing is definitely my go-to food truck and I hope they bring back a brick and mortar location!

Since I ALWAYS check to see what my fellow Yelpers recommend, I already knew what I wanted and that was 1 of each of their veggie/vegan, Classic, and BBQ chicken meatballs with sides of roasted cauliflower and mac and cheese. Out of the three meatballs, my absolute favs were the veggie/vegan and the bbq chicken. The vegan/veggie meatball was indeed a little soft texture wise; however, the taste blew my mind. The seasonings and veggies throughout made me do a double take. The BBQ chicken was again seasoned really well and the sweet BBQ sauce was a nice touch! Onto the sides -- the roasted cauliflower was the bomb.com! I never thought of myself as a cauliflower lover, but after trying this I def would get it again! Again, the cauliflower was very well seasond and roasted just right - not too crunchy and not mushy, mushy, but kinda soft how I prefer my veggies. The mac and cheese was ok, nothing stood out to me about it. In my opinion, it could've used some pepper (I didn't have any at my desk smh); however, the cheese was plentiful and gooey! I did love the thick noodles that were used vs traditional elbow noodles. All in all, I def will be on the look out for Ball or Nothing in my area and will most def will get the veggie/vegan and BBQ chicken meatballs with cauliflower. Seeing that they have other sides, I cannot wait to try those as well.

Mediocre- with potential. Ok so I really would have given…read morethis place 2-2.5 stars but since there are no other reviews I don't want to hurt their business however I will make suggestions on how to easily improve if they actually pay attention to yelp. The good- menu is wide range from Burgers, Paninis, custom made pasta, etc. Taste was not bad and fries were good hot and crispy. Priced reasonable however my food was $11 and when I used my debit card I signed for $12.10 which is 10% tax and I just assumed it was even though clearly he quoted me $11 total. When noticing while waiting for my food all customers paying cash did not pay a "surcharge". If there is a surcharge I would have preferred to be notified. The truck is not well decorated and I can tell they are not active on social media as there was no indication as such. Most of the successful food trucks decorate and you can keep abreast of their location easier via social media if you enjoy their food. You can also spread the word that way. It was all white and you could tell it was painted over as the previous paint was easy to notice. Another criticism or suggestion is the service is pretty slow. A food truck that took 15+ minutes to prepare your food. There was no cashier as the cook and cashier were one in the same. You can take more orders and make more money by hiring a low wage cashier to handle the money even if you want to handle orders yourself to ensure proper preparation of the food. Prepare for success by planning to do business. If they had a line they would have lost customers due to slow service. In the 30 minutes I was there orders came in but never too busy otherwise it could have been a mess. Finally I paid $2 for a can of diet coke. Most of the trucks charge $1 but I would have been ok with the $2 Except it was room temp. I asked for ice and he had none. I asked for any drink and guess what not a single cold drink in the house. So you may see the reason why I wanted to 2 star it. I will try it out once more and if it gets better I'll leave or improve upon the rating. If nothing changes I'll give it the 2 stars I was initially inclined. Food is decent and so are prices so this could be a 4 star place with just a few changes. I'm ok with an unpainted food truck as long as the food and service is at a higher level. Currently what you see is what you get.

I was met with what felt like genuine care and regard for taking an accurate food order. I believe I encountered the owner who was very pleasant and if she was not the owner, then this person certainly bought into the expectation of good customer service. I wish more of the food truck management teams in the SW DC area provided similar care and customer service. Overall the food was absolutely delicious. The Carne Mechada Arepas was very delicious. I ordered it without cheese and it was still delicious. It was very hearty and the flavors were robust. The plantain on the arepas was cooked well, however I wish I had more on it. As an extra it comes with two pieces. The Pollo Mechado Pabellon was also delicious and similar to the arepas, I wish I had more plantain. I could eat these plantains by itself. I believe the plantain costs extra. Next time I might purchase two side orders of the plantain. The processing time from order placement to order fulfillment was relatively short during the lunch rush which I appreciate. I'll visit again soon and I'm hoping for consistency and I will update my review to a 5*. Give them a try.

The flavor of the ramen broth was good. However, the noodles were a little mushy. For the broth, the balance of salt, miso, green onions and pork made the meal. There was a good amount of meat in there, so that helped make up for the noodles, and they were a little bit on the fatty side, but as they say, "Fat is flavor". I like to eat hot soups like ramen and pho on hot days and today, you could have steamed bao outside on the sidewalk. Speaking of...the pork belly bao was quite good. Nice crunch from the cucumber and great flavor. The bao was soft and thin so it allowed the other flavors and textures to come through. Certainly not the best ramen I've ever had, but it works.

I would say standard definitely. The ingredients were decent. I thought the pork was tasty as well as those two surprises of menma, which I wish was more of in the soup. The noodles were the epic fail of this dish. Over cooked and almost mushy. Now I'm not sure if they got this way from the walk back to my office (5/4 minutes down the street) or if they were already this way. The noodles just spoiled it. It almost made me feel as though I was eating a bowl of top ramen made at home with overcooked noodles.(and we all know how those top ramen noodles swell) This place doesn't compare to the other ramen shops in DC and I didn't expect it to either. After all it is a food truck and I don't expect fine cuisine from them. Fast forward to 2019, I just ordered 3 buns. One chick. One pork and one beef. All delish! The chicken has a nice grilled flavor and the sauce and green onion pair well with it. They also had sliced cucumber. The pork belly was amazing as well as the bulgogi. I loved the sauce in the bulgogi. I could have done with out the coleslaw topping, it honestly didn't need it. All the meats were flavorful and tender. I would come back just for the buns. 3 for $8 not too bad at all. This makes me want to try their ramen again.

The pizza's are cooked prior they throw it in the oven and warm it up for ya. I tried the Tomato Basil pizza. It has ultra this crust that's just right crispy but it allows the slice to bend so most deff NY Style pizza. I bought 1 slice at $4 and it was kind of on the small side for a $4 slice. It tasted very good but very little ingredients cheese was on it but I like to see it pull and stretch a bit. So it seems a little skimpy on the toppings but the taste was spot on. I ate the slice quickly and realized how hungry I still was. Next time maybe two slices but that's $8 bucks for two slices of non large pizza.
