Diners near Washington

“Went for dinner after visiting Smithsonians. Had an excellent meal with family. Some had breakfast, and others had burgers. Everyone said their selected meals were excellent.Pics are from baseball game at nationals Park, which was across the diner. A game was being played.“

“In a bar where the lights are warmly dim,Friendly faces, where spirits aren't grim.Muscle queens reign, in their splendid might,With strong drinks that spark the night.The food, though not a gourmet's dream,Is reliable, a steady stream.But here's a gem, a shining light,Trivia on Wednesday, a delightful sight.Highly recommend, a night to behold,Where stories are shared, and laughter's told.A place of warmth, where all are seen,A haven, a joy, a social scene.“

“Amazing breakfast, call ahead and they will have your order ready, nice and hot, this place doesn't forget a single thing, even with big orders. I've been here twice already and it just continues to get better and better with each visit, I absolutely love the corn beef hash it's a must have anytime I go, the cheesy Grits are something special as well, very nice laid back feel here. Just love it.“

“If you have an itch for carry-out food, King's Cafe will scratch it for you! Great breakfast options, etc! It's not the pinnacle of health, but if you're in the market for a place where eggs seem to automatically become with American cheese on them, this is your spot! Clean inside, and the folks are friendly! Support this small and local business! Bonus: scrapple and corned beef hash on the menu!“

“This is a Great spot for breakfast near the DC Capitol buildings. It's not a large place, but the food is good and you get fast service. I'm sure this place has seen a Senator (or Congressman) and or one of their staffers. You gotta try Pete's Diner!!!“

“Everything is always so amazing here. Their very welcoming and nice. its never a dull moment in thos place snd the staff is so lively. They put all good energy and effort into their meals. Honey youll be full for dayss. We got all this food for like 37 doolars with two large half and halfs. Slim everything torch on this side???. Its CASH ONLY but they do take that CASH APPPP YESS ?????“

“We had a few things for things, T-Bone Steak dinner, Salmon dinner, Garden Salad, seasoned fries, etc. Apple and Mango juices...The restrooms need more improvement and attendance. Denny's keep up the good work.Parking: Plenty parking for Denny's customers.“

“We saw the place had great reviews and they did not disappoint. The server and other staff were super friendly and attentive. The food was amazing. About the only negative I saw was that the establishment next to them was flying a Buffalo Bills flag.“

“Sometimes I feel like I must preface my commentaries with a disclaimer that I believe many foodies are inspired to carve out negative reviews when they are dissatisfied with the food, ambience or service in a fit of retribution, and those who have been satisfied by the experience, don't expend the energy writing anything, thus making a big chunk of reviews adversely slanted! I consistently try to be even-handed, and do not hold back the negative, but also try to underscore the positive - always my 'opinion' and those with me at the time and with the understanding that one good or bad review does not reflect a restaurant's overall potential, actual character or track record. That said - kudos to Raphael Ehilen, owner/operator of one of the best Denny's in the Washington Capitol Region! Firstly, the wait staff (at least on the day of my visit) and on-duty manager are nice, polite and service oriented and professional - very, very professional! I have not been to this good a Denny's in years... anywhere. I recently stopped in while doing business nearby and had the Grand Slamwich: scrambled eggs, sausage, crispy bacon, shaved ham, mayo, American Cheese on potato bread that's grilled with maple spice spread and served with hash browns - tastes like a monster Monte Cristo - WOW! The serving was 'picture perfect' as you can see from my pic! The place was immaculate, clean, well appointed and worthy of being the East of the River's first and best sit-down restaurant. Secondly, I'm happy for the community, and for Raphael whom I was part of a community development team over 10 years ago that helped him get started against all odds that this type of restaurant would work here... naysayers were proved wrong. If you truly want to have the best Denny's has to offer in the region, this location is bar none the one for you. Bon appétit!“

“Got the Bay Benedict. They make a lighter hollandaise that pairs perfectly with the baby spinach and texture of the crab cake. Perfectly seasoned and super delicious. Place is super busy (always a good sign) but service was still speedy and friendly.A must visit if you're in the area.“
