Alejandro “ZTXH” Zamora Jr.: This little place is a great find. The food is great, has a like home feeling, and feels like a small step into how things were a while back. Friendly service, great tasting food and amazing atmosphere. This is a Cash only establishment

C F: Pretty good burritos. Fresh and tasty. I enjoyed my burrito and would try other ones. I deduct 1 star because the price is higher than expected for 1 normal sized burrito and the lettuce/salad was a bit confusing. Also the chairs and tables were pretty dirty when we were there. But overall great sauces and friendly service.

Kevin commodore sr: Awesome Employees everyone has an awesome attitude and the food is fresh and great tasting! The place was clean and smelled like fresh pizza! Would recommend everyone that comes into the area to try this location!!!

C F: Sooo good and great prices!! We tried the daily special burrito and it was delicious- plenty of meat, rice and veggies. Some indoor seating and outdoor seating was bonus. How have I only recently learned about this place?? Will definitely be going back!

Kevin Shim: Quirky spot with good falafels. I was looking for a light, refreshing meal on a Tuesday night. This place didn’t disappoint. The falafel bowl with everything was good. A bit pricey considering the size of the bowl, but quality over quantity. The fries were a bit meh. It comes with curry ketchup which is an interesting twist. A pleasant surprise. Overall, a good place for a light meal. The interior decor is unique. It’s worth stopping by.

Charlie Sanders: One of the best burgers I’ve ever had, and reasonably priced as well. The Prez was definitely worth the money, and the rest of my crew loved the burgers they got. The toasted marshmallow milkshake was heavenly. If I was a legislative staffer I’d be eating here everyday.

Oi Lin “Chinagirl568” Wong: Walk in and order, they will bring you your food. There are a few tables up front, in the middle and in the back. Pictures of famous people all over the walls. Even have a TV playing with more pictures. This is a DC landmark. The place is fun to check out. But the chili was just ok... Service was good.

Kevin Rayan: Always a favorite for lunch or even dinner when I am in DC. It’s reasonably priced for DC and the tacos are so delicious. They replaced the soft drink machine in the photo that was unique to them with coke products modern machine and I am happy about that. I always get water but now my options improved. Highly recommended that you try them.

Larry “Big Schlim” Mcleod: I made a decision to go to this spot at the last second. I honestly forgot that I had been wanting to go ahead and try their burgers. Well I went I tried them and I’m gonna tell you all about it. Feeling lucky? Got buns? On 2000 18th St., N.W. Washington D.C., right on the corner, you’ll find @eatluckybunz for drinks, beers, and…Burgers!! . . . Let’s get to it this place has all different kind of burgers like their Lucky Bun burger with two Creekstone patties, Gouda, lucky sauce, pickles, arugula, and grilled red onion. They also have chicken sandwiches like their Japanese themed Katsu bun (Fried chicken thigh with Tonkatsu sauce, Karashi slaw, Nori, and turmeric picked onion. There is a veggie burger available, toppings like bacon jam, and a runny egg available. They have fries that they called chips like their cheesy chips with green chili queso & cojita. There’s sauces range from curry to mumbo!! . . . First up I got their OG burger(pictured with Double patty, gouda, she lettuce,Well red onion, garlic mayo, yellow mustard $14 bacon jam & a runny egg added $16). DELICIOUS!! If it weren’t for the soggy bun, this would’ve been a STAMP!! . . Second up was their Hot Tiger bun spicy fried chicken thigh sandwich (pictured with Sichuan peppercorn spice paste, pickles, onions, buttermilk ranch mayo, and Chinese yellow mustard $12) STAMP!! Thick, crispy, and HOT!! This joint was good goodt!! . . Thirdly was there Bogan Bun (pictured with Double patties, Gouda, bacon XO jam, Lucky sauce, pickles, grilled red onion, and arugula $15). STAMP!! The bun held up on this one and all these ingredients melted in your mouth with the aftertaste of that bacon jam!! EXCELLENT!! . . Lastly I had their BRAAI (South African bbq spice) spiced chips (pictured with spicy Sambal ketchup $7). DECENT. The fries were lukewarm, but the ketchup made up for that!! . . Customer service was DECENT. As messy as the sandwiches were, I got no utensils, and more importantly no napkins. Online ordering was easy, and simple, parking was rough, I didn’t check the cleanliness, the inside was closed, but they still fulfilled online orders. They got good burgers! That’s it. #Bigschlimsreviews

Joy Amessoudji: Great service, nice atmosphere, clean, quick…the food just genuinely tasted terrible. Not cooked poorly, just bad flavor. Of course that’s not something the employees can control so five stars on their part🤷‍♀️

Sajud Hamza: If you looking for a late night snacking wise guy pizza is a great option right in the middle of Washington DC.. you get all kinds of pizza plus the garlic breads are soo yummy you can’t stop eating !! It has outdoor seating but lacks parking and it’s a problem all over the Washington DC for parking!! Open till late on the Washington street!! Best for after party food!!

Chris East: True hole in the wall. I can see why Guy F enjoyed this place. Ordered the empanana player and was not disappointed. My wife and two kids enjoyed the visit as well. The food came out hot and fresh even though it was near closing time. The setting inside was quaint and was great for my family. Easy to locate and was conveniently located next the marketplace. The service was also top notch. The staff were very friendly and clearly shows they enjoy what they do. My only opportunity is the need for a better selection of drinks, specifically tea. But that does not affect my 5 star rating!!!!

Arash Tavakoli: I had one of my best dining experiences in this place. The breakfast is easily enough for two people. The staff are super welcoming. Try their tarts and that tastes like heaven. Been very happy with the pancakes and hey they bring you a whole container of coffee. I also really liked that when we ordered one breakfast for two, they put it in two different plates. Thoughtful! So enjoy!

Zeyu Hu: Went to Unconventional Diner for both brunch and dinner and let me tell you they didn’t disappoint at all. Brunch: Got three different items to share for brunch, and each was unique in its own way but complimented each other so well. The shrimp and grits were perfect. The BBQ shrimp had an amazing smokey smell which really made it stand out. The biscuits were also amazing, nice and crispy and the house made sausage was great. The blueberry pancakes were the fluffiest I’ve ever had, a great sweet treat to end the meal. Dinner: Came back for dinner a week later and it blew me out of the water again. As the name suggests, the menu has a large variety and when the waiter tells you you can’t go wrong with anything, they ain’t lying. We got such a variety of food - from French to southern, Chinese stir fry to Cuban. It just all works so well. Bottom line: A must visit if you are in DC. The best wait staff and service. But remember to book ahead!

Emma Rose Wooten: Fantaaaastic and delicious fast-casual vegan/vegetarian/gluten-free food!!! I got one mushroom taco and one sweet potato taco – sweet potato is definitely the best. The girl who took our order was super friendly, and our food came out within 5 minutes of ordering. Just be aware that there is very little seating inside so you’ll probably have to take it to go and eat outside.

Yongjian Si: A cute family style Eritrean restaurant near Dupont Circle in Washington DC. Friendly staff and tasty dishes! The dishes and stews were flavorful and fresh. They also offer American style breakfast, but I encourage you to get out of your comfort zone and try a new dish here. Vegetarian friendly. If it’s your first time trying Eritrean cuisine, don’t hesitate to ask the staff for recommendations. Plenty of options for meat lovers, vegetarians, and vegans alike.

C Lilakos: Literally one of the best values in DC. The falafel bowl is loaded with spinach, falafels, toppings, and as much sauce as you want for $7. You can add fries for $3. The fries are bomb, have great flavor, and they are generous with the serving. This is hands down the cheapest meal I have had since moving from Queens to DC. The food and sauces taste great. The red sauce is SPICY. I love spicy sauces but a little goes a long way with this one.

Regina Hogan: Willy at The Diner was so awesome! Excellent customer service. The fish tacos and cherry blossom shake were amazing! Got a table outside in the shade. Very satisfied, will definitely be back!
