    Very few restaurants around National Mall. We have to eat these kinds of burgers. It has $3.99 for sales. However, it only deducted $0.01 for the second burger.

    Pull apart donuts
    Brian P.

    Pretty average McDonald's located just south of the National Mall. You can order at the counter, on the app, or on one of their many self-service kiosks. When ordering on the app and checking in upon arrival, my food came out within a couple of minutes, hot and fresh. I also saw they had new pull apart donuts being advertised, so I ordered one of those as well. The donut was cold and likely baked earlier in the morning or offsite and shipped. Because of this, it wasn't easy to pull apart and didn't taste as good as a fresh donut. But hey, what did I expect at a McDonald's?!

    This is a large lemonade, filled only 20% of the cup. Unbelievable. I ended up not drinking it and just poured it out.
    Tina L.

    I placed an order on the kiosk which was out of paper so my receipt didn't print. I didn't get any order confirmation on my phone or email so I had to tell the cashier what I ordered. When my large lemonade came, it was only filled 20% and the rest with ice (see photo). I ended up just pouring the drink out, since I don't trust whoever filled my cup to drink out of it.

    Large fry

    This mcdonald's is my favorite mcdonald's in DC by far. Clean tables and nice ambiance all around, with cool neon lighting on the outside. Food is always fresh and great. Service is fast and staff are kind.

    This is an average McDonald's that I bought lunch from before visiting the Smithsonian air and space museum. My food and iced coffee were good, but the cashier that took my order was snippy at me because I didn't want liquid sugar in my iced coffee for health reasons.

    I just got the Cardi B and Offset meal and they gave me a cheeseburger dressed as a quarter pounder. Like bruh if y'all didn't have any more quarte pounder y'all could have just said that and I would have just got something else just stupid.

    Large French Fries
    Brianna A.

    This place was quick and efficient. The self service option was definitely Plus. I only order French fries and they came out steaming hot and fresh. They were delicious! The only disappointment was that they had no drive thru and there was practically no parking on the street.

    Filet O Fish Meal
    Destinie M.

    I decided to grab McDonald's on my break since it's so close; BIG MISTAKE. I partly blame myself for not checking my food before I left but I was in such a rush to get back to work I didn't. I get to work and half the bun of my fish filet is PEELED OFF. In what world would someone think this is okay to serve a customer?! The fries were COLD and SALTY, then the soda was FLAT! The whole meal was a waste of time and money. I couldn't even eat it, I'm truly disappointed but then I have to remind myself this is McDonald's.

    Not sitting here.  Definitely not sitting here.

We were seated on the ground floor. The decor was exotic in a pleasant way and it looked like there were many seating or standing options. It was quiet in the early afternoon. We ordered the fries with aioli, I had the lamb tartare and my friend the lamb bolognese, and we both had pound cake for dessert. We both deeply enjoyed the taste and presentation of the dishes we ordered. The fries were hot and crispy and the aioli delicious -- I only wish there were more given the generous portion of fries. My tartare had the taste and texture of pate, despite the lamb chop exterior. Very clever. The aroma was just right. The cake was warm and moist with a crispy crust. My friend remarked that dishes of similar quality, taste, and presentation would cost triple in Manhattan. Regrettably, we were charged $12 for the $10 dessert. The waiter attributed it to a "computer error," but I've had to deal with overcharging by several of my favorite DC restaurants. Whether intentional or not, it left a bad taste in my mouth. Other cons: The menu is admittedly sketchy. My friend and I were unwilling to gamble on expensive and elaborate dishes. It sounds like the reviewers here did. Also, the restaurant is located in the heart of Capitol Hill, far from the metro. It's a long walk or you'll be looking for parking. Butterworth's is now my favorite restaurant in DC. I've been wanting to bring my family here for the longest time, but I've hesitated because I don't want to deal with the contempt of the host, the embarrassment of disputing false charges, and the pain of finding parking. I've been wanting to return solo for the longest time, but I've hesitated because the place is in the middle of nowhere, and I don't want to walk 25 minutes or pay $15 for a cab ride just to pay another $50 for a meal here, as wonderful as the experience might be. All that said, in terms of taste, presentation, ambiance, and price, Butterworth's left a strong and positive impression on me.

Even though we got our drinks and food to go, I couldn't help but admire the cute ceramics and overall aesthetic of the space. I ordered the lavender latte, which was good but didn't completely wow me. My husband and I also shared the bread pudding, and that was definitely the highlight. He gave it a 9/10, and I'd have to agree, it was delicious and the perfect treat to enjoy while walking around the pier. One thing to note is that prices are definitely on the higher side. I noticed the avocado toast was around $18, and while it looked nice, it didn't seem particularly special for the price.

I feel like they should be a bakery that serves coffee on the side. Their mushroom toast is out of this world! Like the best thing I've had in a long time. Their sourdough and multigrain bread is the foundation and the most beautiful one at that. The sauce is magnificent. Their croissant is as close to magic as you can get...

Total came out to approximately $55. What's hot - Menu. Good variety and there appears to be something for everyone, even possibly vegans. There are sweet and savory options, eggs, french toast, salads, sandwiches, etc... - Quality. Excellent! All 3 of us really enjoyed the food that we ordered. Their french toast and omelettes are delicious. My husband particularly liked the maple syrup that was served with his french toast, because the maple flavor tasted a bit stronger than your average maple syrup. Their pastries are also delicious! Soft, good texture and not too sweet. Given the softness, my best guess is that their sweet treats are recently made. - Service. Pretty good. We did not wait very long for our orders to be ready. The hot foods, like the omelettes, french toast, and drinks, appear to be freshly made. - Price. Good value for money, given the quality and portions. - Location. Convenient location in D.C. However, given the location, be prepared for it to get busy quickly, which means decent lines and wait times. What's not - Interior space. Very tight squeeze inside. There are tables and chairs inside, but their biggest tables can only fit 4 people. If you have children with a stroller or whatever, be prepared to not have room inside. They have outside seating, but that's only conducive to when the weather is warm. This place appears to be popular, which means it can get packed very quickly and seating can be difficult to find. - Acoustics. They play relatively loud music inside, which makes it difficult to have conversations with those you're with. That the interior is small, the music travels easily, which does not help. - Omelette. Even though I liked the flavor of my omelette, it was rather thin. I prefer my omelette to be more weighty/fluffy in texture. Additionally, cheese is not automatically included with the omelette. I ordered mushrooms, red peppers, spinach, and bacon in my omelette. I mistakenly believed cheese was automatically included, but I was wrong. - Parking. Is not easy to find given the location. There is street parking, but it's very difficult to come by. Final Answer Would like to come back, but probably not a first choice given the tight squeeze of the interior. If I do return, would more likely than not order takeaway.

However, part of what you're paying for supports programs that provide coffee to people experiencing homelessness, while another portion goes toward local causes in DC. In that sense, your extra dollars are helping fund meaningful work in the community. Vibes - This place has great energy. There is a sizable indoor seating area along with a comfortable outdoor section. You'll see a mix of people catching up with friends, working remotely, or simply enjoying a cup of coffee. The overall atmosphere feels welcoming, open, and community-oriented. Outdoor Space - This is probably the highlight, especially on a nice summer day. It's an ideal spot for people-watching, soaking up some sunshine, and enjoying the neighborhood atmosphere. If the weather is nice, grab a seat outside and stay awhile.
