We had a group of 6 for dinner. The atmosphere is very inviting and even though it was busy it wasn't loud at all inside. They recommended sharing plates and we ordered several small bites and three main plates for the table which was enough food. Everything was tasty, especially the Adana Kebab, which was my favorite.
A great bookstore with a wide selection, even for being "little." The staff are super friendly and had great recommendations. Definitely worth a visit if you're around Eastern market!
Stopped here for lunch before heading to the Glenstone. The vibe is really charming. It was a cold and rainy day and they had a nice fire going in the fireplace that was a nice addition to the atmosphere. The staff were friendly and the food was good, excellent fries. Great option for lunch if you have afternoon Glenstone tickets!
A perfect short trip outside of DC. Everything about this museum is expertly curated. It's incredibly sleek and modern and their collection is impressive. I highly recommend engaging with the staff who are a wealth of knowledge about the pieces and talking to them really enhances the experience. There's no photography allowed inside the galleries, but you can elsewhere on the grounds.
Know that some of the pieces are only open at specific times, so plan accordingly if you want to see everything. Definitely walk the grounds and stop at the restaurant or the cafe! Tickets are free, but you need to get them in advance on their website.

Pros: best seats of any theatre in DC (very comfortable and recline), they show almost everything, *great* deals on Tuesdays, food/ drinks are pretty good, conveniently located by the red line and close to several bars/restaurants for food or drinks before or after shows, theatre is always clean.
Cons: confusing to check in and to order food if you've never been before, service is just okay (the last two times I've been I've waited 20 minutes for water to be served and have heard similar stories from friends).
Overall it's probably the best theatre in DC, but I've heard their Crystal City location has excellent service if you're looking for a 10/10 theatre experience.
