Food Scene

Delicious brick-oven pizza in a cozy, casual atmosphere. Try the shrimp or Christina pizzas -- they're our favorites. Great for weekend brunch too, with bottomless mimosas!

Best New DC Restaurant '13. Amazing Italian fare w/ lots of local/interesting ingredients. Reservations in advance recommended, but they also save some tables for walk-ins or you can eat at the bar.

Mind-bogglingly delicious ribs & BBQ with sides to die for; our favorite is fried brussels sprouts with bacon. Primarily takeout; very minimal seating. Bring food to Crispus Attucks Park for a picnic.

Bistro Bohem has great Czech food and yummy drinks, but the star of the show is their Kafe Bohem next door -- best coffee shop in DC, in my opinion.

AMAZING Ethiopian food -- definitely worth checking out whether you've tried Ethiopian before or not! Our favorite is the Special Etete Kitfo, raw -- it's basically Ethiopian steak tartare.

Drinks & Nightlife

Yummy inventive bar food and a great selection of beer and spirits, especially whiskeys. Usually very crowded, it can be hard to get a table at prime times, but a fun place to hang out.

Lovely little park in the circle nearby. Great place to admire DC residential architecture (walking through Ledroit Park is great for this too) and watch fireflies in the summer.
