Smoked Salmon BLT Sandwich
Sam O.

This is the best sandwich in the city. I've never said something is the BEST with as much conviction as this. As a certified sandwich girlie I can't go a single WEEK without heading to union market for this BLT. Neopol Smokery single handedly CARRIES this place the absurdity of quality of this sandwich is off the charts. Smoked salmon BLT stuffed to the brim with beautifully cooked smoked salmon, bacon, lettuce, tomato and red onion tied together on a bed of Romain with the most perfect gravlax mayo. Be sure to get it on the sunflower flax bread TRUST!!! Add sliced apples to it when your back in ten min for a second sandwich. I mean it. You will turn right back around the second you take a bite. Friendly staff and quick service make me love them even more. Also LGBTQ owned!! Don't forget the smoked mussels. Thank me later. They're 12 for $12 and I would do a disservice trying to explain how flavorful these bad boys are! Follow my TikTok for the full review and more! @thegutgoblin

I stopped by Neopol Savory Smokery at Union Market and ordered the Salmon BLT with avocado on multigrain, and wow, what a great choice! The sandwich was packed with flavor: the smoky salmon paired perfectly with the salty bacon and crisp red onions. Every bite was rich and satisfying, and it came out in under 10 minutes, which was a pleasant surprise. Overall, this spot really impressed me. Delicious food, quick service, and fresh ingredients. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Union Market.

I can't believe I've lived in the neighborhood this long and never tried Neopol Savory Smokehouse! A good friend of mine swears by their sandwiches--she even picks them up for her mom, aunt, and cousin whenever she's in the Union Market area. After walking past Neopol countless times, I finally decided to stop in for a sunny Sunday lunch, and I'm so glad I did. I ordered the smoked salmon BLT but swapped the bacon for avocado. The cashier recommended the bread most people pair with their sandwiches, and I'm so glad I took his suggestion. The sandwich was huge and packed with fresh, flavorful salmon--they definitely don't skimp on portions. It was the perfect balance of rich, smoky fish and creamy avocado. While the prices lean a little high, it feels fair given the quality of ingredients and the Union Market setting. The service was warm and helpful. The cashier took the time to give me a thoughtful recommendation and made the experience feel personal. Even with several orders placed just before mine, my sandwich came out quickly. I also noticed someone ahead of me ordered one of their dog treats--something I'll definitely be picking up for my pup next time! There are a few tables right across from Neopol, but on a beautiful day, eating outside is the way to go. Union Market always has a lively, energetic vibe, and Neopol fits right into that atmosphere. It's casual but feels special thanks to the food quality and friendly staff. Overall, Neopol has earned a new loyal customer in me. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu (and grab that dog treat too ).

Smoked Salmon BLT sandwich for the win!! Neopol is located inside of Union market which means it's in a casual, busy, and fast-paced location. However, the service was quick and the staff were nice. I saw this sandwich trending on TikTok and decided to give it a try.. it did not miss. It was flavorful and BIG. I ended up saving half to eat later. I definitely recommend trying. I will be returning to try the salmon apple salad

Had the Salmon BLT on MultiGrain. Loved the generous amount of smoke salmon. The bread was toasted which I enjoyed once I got past the crust (the edges cut the inside of my mouth). Wonder if they would cut the crust off, I think so, if I asked nicely. Overall sandwich was great & huge portion enough for two sittings.

Nice spot located inside the food hall. The service and menu is simple. The smoked salmon BLT was good and the smoked mussels were on point. Not a bad place! Next time I'll try a different food stall but this one is worth me coming back to.

Overall experience and the Smoked Salmon BLT were great, but my favorite was the crunchy bacon! Adds as much flavor as the smoked salmon to the sandwich. The service was fast and easy from the front counter to pickup. Neopol is located in one of the corners of Union Market on the side that is closest to the windows and doors. I actually couldn't find it my first time! Good place you can get a sandwich for less than $15 still at the market. I'm surprised it's not as popular as others stalls, but it's a great option there.

This place is great! I got the smoked salmon BLT and the flavor was incredible-- such a great sandwich! I also took home some smoked salmon for lunches for the week and I highly recommend that too. It is located inside Union Market which gets very packed on the weekends. Regardless of how busy the market is though, the service is fast!

The salmon BLT was AMAZING, if you enjoy smoked salmon you will love this sandwich. A perfectly smokey flavor that is complemented well by the whole sandwich. You can choose whether or not to include all the toppings, but I would recommend to include them all. Their stall is towards the very end of the market in the corner, close to the District Fishwife. My sandwich only cost about $15, was pretty quick to have it made as well. Service was also friendly.

Smoked salmon blt great on white bread. Would recommend 10 times over. Service was decent. Place at the end at Union market.

The best fresh smoked seafood in the city. In my opinion.
Joseph G.

This Gem is in Union Market Food Hall. The food is flavorful, fresh and just darn good. The service is a bit slow but that's because it's typically a line and it's that good. In my opinion best smoked salmon in the city. They also offer larger dishes for big groups. Ambiance ehh..can't judge because it's in union market but they do have a location in Baltimore.

So glad I decided to try this place out after seeing it on Yelp - I probably never would have known of it otherwise due to the countless other options in the Union Market area. The smoked salmon BLT is incredible - the smoked salmon is so moist and not fishy, and all the flavors and textures balance each other out so well. Service is relatively quick and there's lots of seating to choose from being in Union Market. Definitely will be coming back!

It has been years since I have eaten at Hank's. Too long really. But we wanted some seafood and…read moretheir Dupont location was close so - off we went. We were seated immediately and the dining room is adequate. Sufficiently decorated to make it okay. It is furnished for maximum occupancy which is fine. Think casual place, almost bar with food, not fancy at all. I do not mean for this to be a negative comment. Hank's presents itself as more of a beachside joint, not a high end seafood restaurant. Each of these sorts of restaurants has a place in the spectrum. Our waiter - Keith or Kevin - I'm so sorry but I cannot remember his name - was GREAT! Funny, good at his job, great personality and helpful. He started out with a corny, but cute, joke and he kept getting better all night. The manager too was quite good, professional and friendly. What a great staff! The food is good. I could talk about the lobster bisque (a bit on the strong side) or the flounder (a bit on the salty side). But, honestly, the food was good and I enjoyed it a lot. I did not complain about any of it nor do I think a complaint was necessary. So, as I said before, it had been years since I had last eaten at Hank's. But it won't be that long anymore. I recommend Hank's for a casual seafood meal.

A 5% service charge?? Honestly, I'm not even sure if that goes to the restaurant, the server, or…read morewho exactly benefits from it. If you need to pay your staff more, do that, or adjust your menu prices accordingly. But tacking on an extra charge that I didn't even notice until I looked at the receipt later that evening is a little tacky. I'm sure it was mentioned somewhere on the menu, and I may have missed it, but transparency goes a long way. Do better, guys.

Takes reservations

I have visited Truluck's in DC twice over the last month and a half for two separate dinner events…read morewith different groups of people, and both experiences were exceptional. While the food is always delicious and the drinks are top-tier, the atmosphere and hospitality truly set this place apart. The live music adds so much elegance to the evening. Both young ladies playing the piano and singing were wonderful, but Seva in particular stood out. She has the most beautiful voice and is just as lovely inside as she is out; listening to her made both dinners feel special. Above all, the service is what earned this review. Anthony, the manager, is phenomenal. He clearly takes immense pride in the restaurant and goes above and beyond to ensure every guest is genuinely enjoying themselves and well taken care of. He showed exceptional kindness and personal attention to my friends and me on both visits, making us feel completely welcomed from start to finish. The attention to detail extends to every corner of the venue--even the restrooms are immaculate, complete with complimentary mouthwash so guests can freshen up after dinner, dessert, or an espresso. That level of thoughtfulness speaks volumes about their standards. A few helpful logistical tips for future guests: * Reservations & Arrival: Definitely make a reservation, especially if dining with a group. They offer valet parking, which makes arriving in downtown DC seamless. * Large Party Billing: If you are coming with a large group, note that they can split the bill across up to five credit cards. While five cards is generous for fine dining, it is good to coordinate payment ahead of time if your party has 10 to 15 people. * Dining with Children: The staff is warm and accommodating, but the overall atmosphere leans toward an upscale evening out. While well-behaved older children would do fine, it is best suited for adults rather than toddlers or young kids. Truluck's has easily become one of my favorite spots in the city for a memorable night out, largely because the hospitality matches the high quality of the kitchen and bar. Highly recommended.

I really wanted to like Truluck's because it's a beautiful, upscale restaurant, but unfortunately,…read morethe energy was OFF from the beginning. I called because I thought I might be running late for our 5 PM reservation. The person who answered wasn't particularly warm and immediately reminded me about the 15-minute grace period and suggested valet parking. Plot twist: I arrived at 4:59 PM and even managed to snag street parking not too far away. My friend arrived about five minutes later, so neither the grace period nor valet ended up being necessary. Side note: this area definitely needs better parking options! Unfortunately, the energy didn't improve much when we walked in. The restaurant had just opened for the evening, and we were handed a Theater Menu without much explanation. Our waitress, however, seemed very nice and patient and appeared ready to thoroughly walk us through the menu once we settled in. The restaurant itself is BEAUTIFUL and upscale, and accessibility gets a plus from me because they even have an elevator. The menu looked okay, but I was really craving sushi that evening, and between that and the initial vibe, I just wasn't feeling it. My friend was equally willing to leave, so we decided to go somewhere else. Later, I noticed that the reservation was canceled on OpenTable, which I thought was a little strange considering we DID arrive for the reservation and simply decided not to stay. One thing about me: I purposely try NOT to read Yelp reviews before visiting a restaurant because I don't want someone else's experience influencing mine. But AFTER this visit, I went back and read some of the recent reviews. Whew. I noticed several reviewers mentioning poor customer service and some experiences that sounded very similar to the energy we encountered. So apparently, we weren't the only ones who walked away feeling that way. And before anyone assumes we left because of the prices...NOPE. We went to another restaurant with comparable prices. Sometimes it's not about the money or even the menu. The overall experience starts the moment you interact with a restaurant, and unfortunately, my first impression here just wasn't a good one. Maybe another time, because the space itself is gorgeous, but this visit ended before dinner ever got started.
