- JJeffGoldWashington, D.C. Area •6 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWhile I’ve eaten at The Smith for lunch and dinner many times, this was my first time eating brunch there. It was simply terrific! Everything was fresh and flavorful. The Eggs Benedict were spectacular but the star of the show was the breakfast potatoes. Excellent flavor and perfect crisp. Addicting for sure. And the Bloody Mary’s were on point, too! Our table of 8 alll agreed. We will definitely be back for brunch! Well done!More infoThe Smith – Penn Quarter, Washington, D.C$$$$• American• Penn Quarter•4.5

- TTomGoldWashington, D.C. Area •181 reviews4.0Dined 6 days agoThe best pizza in town....seriously. We come here before Caps games and the food is terrific, especially the pizzas. They are wonderful. The calzones are also delicious. But I love what's called The American Wheel--pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms and cheese, of course. They are consistently baked to perfection.More infoElla's Wood Fired Kitchen$$$$• Pizzeria• Penn Quarter•4.5
- MMikeIndiana •1 review5.0Dined 7 days agoWe ordered the Taste of South served family style at the recommendation of the waiter and we thoroughly enjoyed every bite. The spread included three courses with perfect portions of each component, served with appropriate time in between to savor each dish. It was a wonderful sampling that included some items we would not have tried otherwise.More infoSuccotash PRIME$$$$• American• Penn Quarter•4.7
