The Washington, DC area provides a wide range of food from all over the world. Here are some of our favorites:
Etete: Small Ethiopian restaurant over by U street. Consistently tasty and flavorful food, meat and veg, served on large plate covered with flat spongy sour bread., which you eat with your hands. We usually get the combination of vegetarian items but have also enjoyed their chicken stew. (Metro: U Street/ Cardozo)
Amsterdam Falafel: Build your own falafel and paper cones filled with fries. Served piping hot straight from Amsterdam. (Metro: U Street or walk up from Dupont)
Pizzeria Paradiso: Wood fired pizzerias with huge beer selection. 3 locations: Old Town Alexandria (King Street), Georgetown (Walk from Foggy Bottom, or take circulator) and Dupont (Dupont station)
Rasika: Upscale new-Indian restaurant. Popular for their palak chaat appetizer and curries (Metro: Archives or Chinatown Stops)
Oyamel: Mexican small plates restaurant - perfect for groups to order a few dishes and share. Similar concept as sister Spanish restaurant Jaleo, just up the street. (Metro: Archives or Chinatown)
Teaism: Delicious mugs of chai tea, perfect for a mid-afternoon rest with naan and chutney or salty oat cookie. 3 locations: Penn Quarter (Metro Center or Chinatown) Dupont (Dupont station) and Lafayette Square (Farragut West or Farragut North)
Busboys and Poets: Restaurant, and bar and shop; great gathering place, vegan and vegetarian items. 3 locations: Original location on 14th street (U Street) 5th and Massachusetts Ave, NW (Chinatown) and Shirlington (Arlington VA)
Cafe 8: Restaurant serving Mediterranean dishes over on Barracks row. (Metro: Eastern Market)
Outside of Washington DC, accessible by car:
Pizzeria Orso in Falls Church, Dama Ethiopian next to Air Force memorial, Minerva Indian Restaurants in Fairfax, Herndon and Chantilly, Meat in a Box in Falls Church
Yes, this is a long list, but hopefully there is something for everyone here.
