The fries were hot, golden, and crispy. ​Chicken Pasta: Rich, creamy sauce balanced nicely by the capers and fresh lemon squeeze, with generous portions of chicken. ​Caesar Salad: Crisp romaine, plenty of parmesan, and crunchy croutons--classic and refreshing. ​Ted's Tart: The nostalgic rainbow sprinkles with whipped cream made for a fun, sweet finish to the meal. ​The real frustration came with the check. Between the added service fee/surcharge and the prompt for standard tipping on top of that, the final bill felt disproportionately high for casual neighborhood dining. Hidden fees stacking up on top of regular menu prices takes away from what would have otherwise been an easy 4- or 5-star meal. ​Great kitchen output, but management really needs to rethink the fee creep.

They make you feel welcomed from the minute you enter until you step out the front door to leave. Ambience - The restaurant is very clean and has an open concept in the dining area with each table still feeling private enough to have a good conversation with your dining companions. . Food - delicious with a wide variety with healthy options, my favorite part of this restaurant is that they serve breakfast all day along with lunch and dinner options and they have a good selection of tasty mocktails. It's a little on the pricier side but average for restaurants in the area. Except Ted's is wayyy better in all aspects. No doubt I'll be back soon.

Every experience I've had with Immigrant Food has been fantastic. Great food, creative drinks, and consistently warm service. This visit was with a larger group after a private tour at the Renwick, and the team at Immigrant Food was incredibly accommodating with all of the last minute group size updates and timing changes leading up to our arrival. They handled everything smoothly and made the experience stress free. This time I had the french fries and samosas, which were both delicious. I've also had the Heritage before and absolutely loved it. Everyone at the table enjoyed their dishes and drinks, which says a lot for a larger group outing. I really love the concept behind Immigrant Food and the way they creatively blend and celebrate flavors from different cultures. It's one of those places that feels thoughtful, welcoming, and genuinely unique while still being approachable and fun. Definitely one of my favorite spots in DC.

We split the DL's Egg Drop (the bulgogi breakfast sandwich) and the Hatch Green Chili sandwich. Both were well executed. The bulgogi brought some real depth to what could have easily been a gimmick, and the hatch green chili edged it out for me personally. The heat was there without being obnoxious, and everything held together the way a good sandwich should. Friends went with the shrimp and grits and had nothing but good things to say. The team behind this place (Scott Drewno and Danny Lee, also of Anju and ChiKo) knows what they're doing, and it shows. The sourcing is thoughtful, the execution is consistent, and the menu has enough going on to warrant repeat visits without feeling like it's trying too hard. Would come back, and would tell others to do the same.

I Egg You is a great little breakfast spot tucked into the Barracks Row neighborhood of Washington,…read moreD.C. I've always enjoyed visiting this area. It's full of interesting shops, great restaurants, and, surprisingly for D.C., relatively easy parking. The food was good. We ordered the bacon and sausage breakfast sandwiches, and both were enjoyable. The sausage sandwich was unnecessarily messy thanks to the crumbled pork, but the flavors were good. Nothing extraordinary, just a satisfying breakfast. I also ordered a Bloody Mary, which I'd rate a 7 out of 10. It had a nice amount of spice and a respectable flavor, but something was missing that would have made it memorable. I'd order it again, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. The restaurant itself is straightforward and understated. The interior is clean, simple, and without unnecessary frills. It's a comfortable space that lets the food do most of the talking. Unfortunately, the service was the weakest part of the experience. I arrived around 9 a.m. on a Saturday. The restaurant was busy but far from packed, with plenty of available seating. I took a seat at the bar, where the bartender promptly greeted me and handed me a menu. I immediately told him what I wanted to eat and ordered a Bloody Mary. Then I waited. And waited. Nearly ten minutes passed before I saw my drink, despite watching the bartender prepare and serve drinks to customers who had arrived after me. There was no explanation or acknowledgment of the delay. It wasn't a catastrophic service failure, but it was frustrating, particularly given how quickly the interaction started and how manageable the crowd appeared to be. That's ultimately what holds I Egg You back. The food is worth trying, the neighborhood is enjoyable, and the restaurant has a pleasant simplicity about it. But the service, at least during my visit, was noticeably slow and lacked the attentiveness that makes dining out enjoyable. Would I eat here again? Absolutely. Would I choose to dine in again? That's a harder sell. I Egg You makes a good breakfast sandwich. I'm just not convinced the dining experience adds much to it. Next time, I might take the food to go.

I ordered the Painkiller, which was delightful, along with the tuna wontons and onion rings. The tuna wontons were very good, although I wouldn't necessarily describe them as traditional wontons. The onion rings themselves were good, but I found the accompanying sauces to be fairly underwhelming. I did notice a few other items on the menu that looked interesting and that I would consider trying. Overall, I had a pleasant experience, but it probably isn't somewhere I would go out of my way to visit again.

AND THAT RANCH?! i am not a huge ranch girl, but i could've drank it. if you're ever craving french fries, pls don't think twice. the service was also great- the server brought out his food and said, "we're going to bring you more fries because there's not enough on your plate," AND LAUGHED!! like!! that's unheard of!! what great service! obsessed and will be going back.

We were seated upstairs, which was nice. We shared two appetizers: the Nashville deviled eggs and fried oysters. All four of us thought both appetizers were delicious! For dinner, I ordered the chicken and waffles, while my husband and our friends all ordered the pimento cheese burger. I loved my chicken and waffles! This is the best honey chicken I've ever had anywhere, although I would have preferred less honey on my waffle. The portion is huge, as they serve half a chicken with dark meat. I only managed to eat two thighs, half a drumstick, and half a waffle. Unfortunately, my husband and our friends weren't impressed with their burgers. One of our friends found it off-putting that the chef recommended the burgers be served medium-rare. She said that was practically unheard of and that unless she knew where the beef came from and that it was organic and grass-fed, there was no way she would eat a practically rare burger. My husband said he would have enjoyed a fast-food burger more. For drinks, they ordered a basil mule, a milk punch, and beer. One friend thought the basil mule was good but said it didn't have much alcohol. Our other friend enjoyed his milk punch. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my meal, the ambiance, and the service. While the appetizers and my chicken and waffles were definite highlights, the burgers were a letdown for the rest of our group.

Friendly and attentive; dishes came at reasonable times. They had some Asian touches such as gochujang and crispy pork belly bao buns. The crispy catfish was nice, along with thin fries. That cod (as a main) is also very good! Now, when it comes time to pay (we are a group of four: 2 couples) it was more headache than it had to be. Our waitress gave us a bill for everything, and she she could not split it for us. She said there is a QR code for us to scan and pay on the phone (separately). Our friend got it working, but it never worked on our phone (it said "something went wrong"). Their WiFi never worked. Cell phone reception a bit patchy. But I did have full bars and 5G+ so it's not a connectivity issue. Simply didn't want to work. We asked a different waiter to split the bill since one couple already paid for their portion. He brought a new bill but still showing all the dishes. In the end we asked our friend to use his phone again (still worked). We then input our credit card to pay for our portion. The whole convoluted process left a bad taste in the mouth.
