Description
Recognized by Washingtonian as one of the DC area's best restaurants, the kitchen builds its menu around traditional recipes and distinctive regional dishes like banana blossom salad and khao soi.
The room keeps things thoroughly casual, with food served on plastic plates and aluminum containers alongside physical and QR-code menus. Hospitality is notably hands-on: staff actively steer diners through the menu, calibrate portions so tables do not over-order, and explain how to eat specific dishes.
