Amazing salads and sandwiches. I like the quinoa salad best. Save room for dessert... killer chocolate chip cookies and, of course, all sorts of French pastries.

Quite funky and very Capitol Hill! You can enjoy a good, tasty, hearty meal any time of day. I like the faro salad. Also, the baked goods and retro candy are GREAT.

Atmosphere & Freshly Made Guacamole A++. Coming with a small group and it's chilly out? Wander back to the 2nd bar and sit at a very cozy table with its own fire"pit".

Drinks & Nightlife
This is a very cool pub! Extensive brewpub beer selection. Maybe not for die-hard vegetarians (not because of the menu but because of the decor).

Excellent lunch specials. My favorite is the red curry. For dinner, you might like their whole grilled fish. (Often taken outside to cool down before it's brought to your table)

I like their Happy Hour at the bar. Try the calamari, and/or one of the many noodle dishes. For my HH drink, I usually order the cucumber cocktail (and I'm not even a fan of cucumbers).
