I have been here over 3 dozen times atleast. I always grab a sandwich and have venture into their homemade pizza dough, pasta sauces, baked goods and more. I've never had anything bad here over several years. They have an online ordering service which makes pick up a lot more easier. Sometimes when it's busy you can expect to wait 20-30 mins on your sandwich, so i usually order in advance. Parking can be touch and go sometimes but there's a free parking garage (up to 3 hours) around the corner.

There are a bunch of different cheese plates, but I tried the cheese monger which is basically dealer's choice. I can't remember all the wines we tried, but between both the reds and whites, no one at our table had a complaint. The inside is cute, but seating does fill up quickly on Saturday night. I noticed there were bar seats too, but would try to come when they open. The staff that helped us were helpful and really kind! Will definitely come again.

Brittney and John were so helpful in explaining all the items and where they were sourced. The music and indie decor made for a very peaceful and relaxing Sunday evening. We had a glass of Chardonnay which was smooth and crisp paired with a cheese plate adding Salami. The Cheese was distinct with many of their items coming from well known distributors. The cheese plate was paired well with pickled green beans, peanuts, jam, and bread. We hope to be back to try everything else on the menu.

I can still see one of our guests with the juice running down his forearm to his elbow, all thanks to the fine people at Harvey's Market, with a recommendation from the fine folk at Soko. All that running around DC for a pork shoulder for my mama paid off. Thanks Harvey!!

We got three ripe mangoes for $2, 1 lb of serranos for $2, and three giant green peppers for $2. The spice section was also particularly well stocked, with options that you can't find at any of the nearby stores. The store itself is immaculately clean and tidy, and appears to be family owned. Will definitely be back when I need corn tortillas, a mangonada fix, jalapeños, or a cold Jarritos.

Destroying cakes and emotional seclusion…read more I had the honor of meeting DC's up-and-coming pastry genius "Shameless Chef" at a wedding that was being catered by her 'cake bites.' Not ever hearing of the delectable devils that I could not stop ogling, I approached the smiling women to get the dibs on the dips. What I encountered was not only a bold taste but a bold business model that can be tasted in each bite. She bakes a cakes, destroy them, and in the process reinvents not only the food but the person making it. Ending up in the DMV post master's degree in Social Work, this baker feels the process of making these balls with love is a form of therapy for those struggling with personal demons and unhealthy dependencies. Listening to her story in awe, she shared her goal of hiring those who not only need a job but who need to be healed. Genius! So yes, there is a cliche that emotions can be tasted in food, but I think this Shameless Chef has proven it fact. I tried: Chocolate^3: the cure to the chocoholic. Pumpkin: pure fall desire. Red Velvet: sinfully good in a sinless size. Carrot Pecan: a smooth and sweet adaptation of a forgotten fibber treat AND the best carrot cake I've ever had. Though what stole the show as well as the actual wedding cake at the wedding was her simple "Vanilla" cake ball. My 2015 favorite dessert of the district. Yes Pixar fans, this is that moment in "Ratatouille" (2007) when Anton Ego food critic tastes one bite of Ratatouille and is transported back in time and left motionless. How can destruction taste so good? I have no idea. Though this perfect bite of pure sweet vanilla is what I have been thinking about even while eating a professional pasty chef's wedding cake.

So glad they still had an impressively wide selection at the end of the festival as many venders ran out. The Giant Peanut Butter Cup is very decadent with rich dark chocolate and creamy peanut butter. Just a couple of bites was more than satisfying and paced myself and able to devour the cup over a few days. The Dark Chocolate Covered Mint Oreo was delicious and my pick over the Dark Chocolate Covered Oreo, which didn't taste that different from a normal Oreo. Of the truffles, the Raspberry and Dark Chocolate Ganache were my favorites. The Hazelnut truffle was fun to try and reminded me of a Ferraro Rocher hazelnut truffles. I miss seeing Capital Candy Jar at the farmer's markets as many have shut down and excited to see them at more festivals and events post pandemic. Looking forward to seeing them again and coming back for more delicious sweet treats!

Lots of unique candies, Washington landmark Oreos, political party Oreos, ice cream and more. I snagged a few things to send my family for Christmas and can't wait for them to receive them!
