Best Burgers Restaurants in Bloomingdale / Brookland

Unfortunately, if you're reading this it's too late to indulge in a delicious Thanksgiving dinner. This is the second time in 65 years I've eaten Thanksgiving dinner in a restaurant and am I glad we ate here. I started with the beet and burrata salad, my husband had the gumbo. Both were fresh, generous portions with well balanced flavors. We both had the traditional dinner, other options were available. Turkey was moist and tender, mashed and sweet potatoes were perfect, as was everything else on the plate. And there was a lot!! I am not a fan of port wine anything and they were able to serve us whole cranberry sauce (minus the port). For dessert my husband had the apple crumble, served warm, with cinnamon ice cream. He was just going to taste it and finish it at home but once he started eating it, he had to eat it all. I had pumpkin pie, literally. A small pumpkin pie, with perfect filling in a buttery, crisp shell and whipped cream worth eating. And let me add, the service was every bit as good as the meal. Annie was professional and pleasant. Eat here, I doubt you'll be disappointed.

We loved that the special Thanksgiving menu offered a variety of options (turkey 3 ways, salmon, gnocchi…) and the starters were substantial & had great variety. The service was attentive & “cool”. No big upsell, but we had a wide scope of options. The noise level was comfortable on a holiday. A nice balance of family-friendly & adult dining. Huge fan. We had 3 college-aged guests & 2 adults over 50. High priority was dessert (10/10) and menu variety of options. Win win. Easy on-street parking. Courteous service.

Great experience, great food. This is the best gluten free crust I’ve had since having to go gluten free. I love it!

The rooftop setting is lovely especially at sunset. We went on a Friday. There was a band playing street level that you could hear from the rooftop - wasn’t our genre. Later, there was jazz on the roof which we enjoyed but it could interfere with conversation. Food was uneven. The crab appetizer was yummy as were pizza and burger. Salad and pasta just OK. Margarita was good. Service was uneven. Our server was very rushed and forgot items (had to ask twice for a beer ordered after meal was served and finally got it at the bar) and left us unattended. Think he was covering too many tables and just needed to slow down a bit. Did not inform us that 20% is automatically added to bill but we noticed it. Despite that, it’s a great spot for a drink and apps, pizza to share. As our friend said, it doesn’t feel like DC, more like Miami.

We went for Black Restaurant Week and had a wonder time! The menu they curated was very good. We ordered the devil eggs and flat bread for appetizers. Both were delicious. For the main course we ordered the Salmon and Pasta were amazing as well as the blueberry cobble! Derrick, our server was very informed and was able to assist us with ordering. He was very friendly and attened to us with impeccable service. We will be coming back!
