Washington PostApril 1, 2015Perhaps one of the best vegetarian dishes in D.C., the torta pasqualina (Easter tart) combines kale, chard and spinach, then is layered in a flaky crust with bechamel, onions and mushrooms. Read more
- Washington PostJune 23, 2013The heart of the menu are grilled/smoked meats. House specialties extend to Peruvian-style chicken. Every detail (fluffy-centered yuca, shocking green chili puree, creamy aioli) is pitch perfect. Read more
K TJune 30, 2013Located in the old PS7. It's all about the asado meats. Grilled octopus and empanadas apps are delish as well. Chavitzo sandwich also quite tasty. Ya we ate... a lot. :)
Rosie HendersonJuly 27, 2015The grill makes everything taste better. Happy hour offers some must try small plates including steak crostini, salmon ceviche, and seared provolone. Wine and cocktails are always delicious.
Steven AndrophyFebruary 8, 2015The burnt beets, milk braised pork cheeks, and anything smoked are highly recommended. For a much cheaper way to try Chef Albisu's delicious food, check out Taco Bamba in Falls Church.
Phantacee Salon & SpaJune 14, 2013Delicious and beautiful restaurant. We had empanadas(amazing!), Peruvian Chicken(delicious) and NY Strip with chimichurria (Perfection!). Also had salad, grilled and LOVED it!! Cannot wait to go back
Tons of meat but there are also some very good sides, salads, and other vegetable items. Excellent cocktails too. Don't be too depressed if you're a vegetarian and someone takes you here.
Katurah ToppsMarch 19, 2014I had the lamb shank- it's suppperrr tender- seriously falls RIGHT off the bone... But was a little flavorless, I'll prolly try a diff meat next time cuz everyone else's looked amazing- Katurah ToppsMarch 19, 2014For apps- the lamb empanadas (good) the octopus (meh, good but not exceptional like they say ) but the GNOCCI IS AMAZING!! Get it twice! It's to die for!
Emily V.June 27, 2014Can't beat the lunch special- any sandwich with a glass of wine/beer for $12! (Plus they give you bread while you wait)
RyanJanuary 17, 2015Damn good. Damn expensive unless you're here for happy hour. But a relaxed evening of food and drink make it a worthy splurge.
Saejin KimApril 19, 2013Beets are amazing! Also get cauliflower as a side. Cocktails are well done. Love the restaurant design!!!
Robert BledsoeFebruary 14, 2016Great atmosphere and service! The smoked scrambled eggs are so worth the visit!
VenuSeptember 13, 201412 dollar lunch special in bar even better than the one offered at proof. Chivito is great but commands an immediate siesta.
Stay DavisSeptember 23, 2013Try there Rib eye the meat is delicious and seasoned well. The waiter was excellent and attentive
Ranini PastelJuly 14, 2017Food is fantastic but portions are embarrassingly small. Spent $35 here and left without being entirely full. Delicious, but not worth the price, even for DC. Their portions used to be more generous.
arishAugust 10, 2013try the grilled tomato, anchovy, goat cheese crostini off the bar menu (sans the anchovies for vegetarians)
Bitches Who BrunchJanuary 3, 2015Voted "Most Likely to Improve" in 2014. The food is hit or miss, with some dishes are delicious and others that are confusing and sad. Read more
- Washington PostOctober 16, 2013Chef Victor Albisu leaves seemingly no dish untorched as he evokes the asados, or barbecues, of South America.
