Best little bar in navy yard. The Rutledge is my go to meal in a pinch, great bottled beer but their pizzas are okay. Bartenders are attentive and provide good conversation
The Radcliffe with pasta salad is my go to. Could eat this every day. Start off with an order of the house guac and chips and you'll keep coming back for more!
Amanda JayneJanuary 5, 2014The Bloody Mary is delicious. The sweet potato fries are delicious. But together, they're a taste disaster. Pick regular fries w/ the mary or a vodka cran w/ the s. p. fries, but do not combine them.
Yetta BungieMay 15, 2014Worth checking out especially if you're near the area. It's small, yet intinmate! Perfect for lunch or directly after work cocktails w/o the city's propaganda (hoopla)!
Rebecca SJune 10, 2013The pizza and sandwich options are fantastic. Good spot for pre/post game food/drink, but space is limited.. Best when the weather is nice and the outside patio space can be used.
ᴡ BarfieldOctober 2, 2013Um, HELLO? If you have 3-4 blocks to walk home and you're concerned about MAKING it....they're so damned helpful they'll feed you a pita after closing time to make sure there's something in your BELLY
Wilfredo CasillasOctober 2, 2014A small gem that serves amazing pizzas. Love the Gadsen! Staff is friendly and inviting. Everytime im in town on business, I have to pop in.
J RussellAugust 15, 2016Service great had prosciutto,fig sandwich. Outstanding. Wife had BBQ pork on Onion bun. Loved it
Greg DiamondAugust 29, 2017I'm a sucker for the grilled cheese and cup of soup, especially on rainy days. Their sandwiches generally are on point.
K MacNovember 10, 2013Delicious, inexpensive brunch, but we must have come on an understaffed day because it took an hour to get eggs w/side of bacon and fresh fruit! Staff was apologetic, but wouldn't come here for food.
JohannaAugust 16, 2015The food isn't going to knock your socks off, but it's good for the cost! Generous portions, especially the salads.
Nathan NyeJuly 6, 2013This place has the absolute best bartenders in the world. They have the best advice, just tell them your problems! It's like free full-service therapy.
Get the Rutledge. You won't go wrong. Definitely the best sandwich in Southeast D.C.- Rutledge on a wrap with sautéed onions and sweet potato fries...so good every time
Get the table by the front window for some of the best people watching in the city
Joe is amazing! Food is great and the beer cold! Love the atmosphere and right around the corner from the apartment
Progressive happy hour. Drafts $3 from 4-6pm. Cannot be beat!
Lorie MartinFebruary 22, 2012My Vermont coworkers love this place! The salads are great and very generous.
The Dry Old Bay Wings and Sweet Potato Fries are awesome!
Try the pizza and sweet potato fries. Also the staff is the great.
WomplyJanuary 18, 2012Justin's Cafe has partnered with Womply to offer $19 cash back after 3 visits!
Try the went worth pizza with chicken and tomato basil soup :)
You can't go wrong with the pizzas, bison Burger, and the Rutledge(grilled chkn on ciabatta)
Best bloody Marys ever! And the prices are right for brunch.
Bill DeBeerAugust 2, 2010If you're here for happy hour, you cannot beat the Red Rye drafts for 3, 4, or 5 dollars. Such a win.
Try one of their quality craft beers. If it's the spring/summer, look to see if they have Bell's Oberon.
Be sure to bring your male ponytail counterpart - they're so hot in LA right now
They just added outdoor seating, so grab a table on the sidewalk and enjoy the people-watching on the way to Nats games.
Delicious pizzas, great selection of beer, awesome waitresses.
Allie and I suggest the butternut squash soup! Phenomenal!
Dale's Pale Ale. Drink it. Enjoy it. The East Bay pizza is pretty awesome too.
Arielle DixonJanuary 6, 2013The food presentation here was amazing. Food was good, service was okay.
