Super-delicious, affordable, sensible, fresh, and pleasing food at the ridiculously overpriced and over-hyped Wharf. Features custom salads and bowls. I recommend the tropical chicken bowl and the salmon burger. No soft drinks, but they offer hibiscus tea, seltzers, etc. Served by nice staff. This is on the farther end of The Wharf, near the CVS. We enjoyed our meal, which for two cost as much as a mere entree at some other nearby places at The Wharf. And you can get right in! read more

Great quick salad! They were closing in 5 minutes and still happy to serve us. So nice to have this fast casual option in the midst of all the sit down establishments at the Wharf. read more

A really great lunch spot! Very large portion sizes and the introvert in me loves that you place your order via tablet. We came here twice because it tasted so great! Weekday barely a soul, but on Saturday every table was taken. The Caesar Salad with eggs was my favorite! read more

The food is a solid 4 stars. But the speed and convenience kick it up to "go to" status if staying at the Wharf. Order through Uber eats and it's ready in minutes. Usually less than 10. Then a quick stroll to pick it up and you're eating fresh well made food. We picked up breakfast each morning and had several pickup salads for lunch. The chicken breast sandwich was a bit dry for me but again convenience wins here. Stick with salads and breakfast and you'll be satisfied. read more

Good not great, and definitely overpriced. The wharf louis salad was tasty, but the crab didn't taste good and the avocado was brown and gross (I asked for a new avocado slice and they switched it out). The steak chimichurri was also tasty but it wasn't hot. Doesn't seem as fresh as expected...and for $20 a plate, I expect basic freshness. The place does have a cool vibe though, and it's in an amazing location. Love the wharf, but won't be back here. So many other great restaurants. read more

I really want to like this place so bad, but I just can't. I live nearby and hit Chopsmith maybe once a week, hoping it would be my go to place. I keep giving it more chances and not sure why. If you're a salad fanatic, they have just about everything you can ask for. But the sandwiches are inconsistent for the price (you're paying for the location for sure) and the coffee is just the worst. They use far, far too much oil/butter for their grilled items, and I've had some stomach issues with both their tuna and chicken salad. Some of their simple pre-made vegetable mixes are good and fairly priced when available (cucumber and tomato, etc), which they should have more of. They look pretty busy but given the location and offices nearby I'd expect more? Hard to say. They have some of the most intricate salads ever devised by man, but strike out on the other basics. read more

Fast, fresh food...I think I'd prefer to order with a person versus a kiosk because it's nice to get recommendatiins and personalizes the experience. However, as an introvert, I love the anonymity...I just didn't know what to order and spreading with someone would've helped guide me. read more

Food was great. Mediterranean bowl. Fresh and a lot to eat! Large menu to pick from. In a nice location.

Trying to find a vegan meal at the Wharf is no easy task. I'd previously been to Chopsmith, so before a show at the Anthem, my boyfriend and I decided to eat here. Sadly, this visit was incredibly disappointing. When I tried to use the kiosk to order the banh mi sandwich, it would not let me both sub the chicken with tofu and remove the aioli, nor did it offer tofu as a sandwich option when we tried to use build your own function, so we ordered at the counter, and even the young woman working the register had to do some sort of override to get it to do both. We also had to modify the Mediterranean salad to make it vegan. (What is it with putting cheese on salads?) It's a pet peeve of mine (and many vegans) that we have to make so many modifications to get a meal. And normally I really like bowl places, but this is an exception. The food was okay. I wish there was actual pita instead of two small slices of toasted baguette that came with the salad to scoop up the dollop of hummus. And the tofu was not the right texture for a good banh mi. But it was steps away from where we had to line up at the Anthem, so there is that. read more

Absolutely loved this place. I wish we had one local to where I live. The food was fantastic. I loved how they mix the salad. My only downfall was that the staff was grouchy and it was loud. read more

My first time trying Chop Smith was via UberEats and I was so blown away by the amazing taste of the Salmon & Grilled Avocado Bowl that I said my next time eating there, I wanted to go in-person. Located down at the Wharf, you can expect a hard time finding parking, especially if you are not looking to pay to park in the garage, but I promise it's worth a few trips around the block to find a park. The restaurant itself is modern and very well-kept. Like many restaurants in DC, it's not much dining room space but if you go during non-peak hours you're very likely to get a seat. The service is fairly fast and the staff is very welcoming and personable! The menu consists of salads, bowls, plates, and sandwiches and overall is very healthy. My go-to has been the Salmon & Grilled Avocado Bowl (I've actually had it 3 times this month, that's how good it's been). The ingredients have been extremely fresh each time I've gone and the meal is so filling. On two occasions, I've had enough for dinner and lunch the following day. Chopsmith also offers a variety of drinks to include iced tea, limeade, coffee, tea, mimosas, wine, beer, and canned cocktails. This has easily become one of my favorite nearby, healthy restaurant! read more

They just served me a kale ceasar to go where the kale was not just brown but actively decomposing and smelled like death. I'm congested and ate some of it before realizing. Fully expecting to get sick. Downloaded yelp again just to warn others. Absolutely disgusting and disgraceful. Will not be returning. read more

Possibly the best spot on the wharf when it comes to the quality of food. They do great with large catering orders sent up to our office and just the one off sandwich or salad. Salads are delicious. Fresh, flavorful, and interesting. The bacon egg and cheese on an English muffin is simple and tasty and the only thing you can find on the wharf for under $10. Staff is friendly and efficient. If you're staying nearby it's a great lunch spot. read more

Had the sticky chicken salad, it was very good. Veggies were fresh, chicken was tender with some added crunch from the cashews. They have a considerable amount of offerings. I would definitely go back ! read more

Was in town for the holidays and stayed in a hotel near the wharf area. I was very surprised by how quality the food here was. Wanted to get something relatively healthy but filling so found this place and decided to check it out. You can eat indoor or outdoor - it's a fast casual vibe kinda like chipotle where you can order components. We each got a plate. For the plates you get a choice of main, a garden salad or a ceasar salad and then two sides! The plates were such good deals - I got the steak market plate with ceasar salad and two veggie sides. Oh and it comes with bread! This was such a good deal and the portions were huge!!! If you're trying to eat sort of healthy but still wanna feel full after come to this spot. read more

One of days. I was craving for a really nice salad at 8 am. Chopsmith was the only one available came up on my search and I am so so glad. I had Sticky Chicken and Cashew and my friend got Wharf Louise Both are phenomenal. Best salads I've ever had in DC. Smokey flavors on meats. A whole variety of veggies. Sauces with the just right amount of sourness. It's a perfect salad- universe. Highly recommend! read more

LOVE this place! They offer the highest quality ingredients, generous quantities and all for a very reasonable price- especially for the Wharf! The Mediterranean Salad is my favorite, but you really can't go wrong with anything here. The green drink is amazing; crabcakes are fresh and flavorful; nice, little wine selection; great side salad selection in their deli section; and everything for a River-side picnic in one place! Also, very clean. Their host, Bobby, is wonderful... although I may be a bit biased (tell him Mom says, "Love you, pumpkin!" when you see him. Don't worry- the review is honest. We love this place so much that I told him to work there. read more

I'd you're wandering around the Wharf and want to grab something delicious, high quality, and yet still affordable, then Chopsmith is your place. It's like a combination between cafe, deli, and cute boutique. Their offerings may sound average at first: salads, bowls, sandwiches - that type of thing - but if you actually look at their menu you'll see that they have amazing options. A grilled steak and cheese panini isn't *just* a steak sandwich, but has grilled steak, Swiss and American cheese, roasted tomatoes, caramelized onions, and chimichurri. Just yes. The cheese is nicely melted, the steak tender, caramelized onions so sweet, chimichurri zingy and garlicky, and the bread is nice, warm, and crispy on the outside (as a panini should be!). Ordered this sandwich on ciabatta and will order it again and again. Also tried their crab cake and turkey club sandwiches - both were delicious. Really like the quality of their breads, meats and vegetables! They also have items to take away like pasta salads, crab cakes, single servings of lasagna, and quiche. read more

First off, be aware that they tack on a 8% service charge. The Spicy crab bun is very good however I wouldn't buy it again because it has very a little amount of crab but with a generous portion of bacon. My wife got the BEC Bagel and really enjoyed it! We would eat here again. read more

Mediocre food. Pricey. Lots of it. We ordered 3 salads. The crispy tofu salad was definitely a mushy tofu salad with good flavor but nothing crispy. The tangy chicken was 3lbs of food but really didn't have great flavor. The juice drinks were meh. Not the meal I wanted when I was super hungry (I love salads). We got take out. Service was fine. read more

Great place for a healthier meal. I will definitely stop there again. Fast service good variety of menu choices

I stopped in at Chopstick on afternoon to pick up lunch. The staff was friend and service was very quick. Love that I was in and out in minutes. The bowl I got was delicious! The chicken and rice was warm and the greens were fresh. I'm not sure what kind of dressing came with it but it was light, refreshing, and really good. Would definitely come back again! read more

Get the Baja bowl. Do it. Everything in the bowls are super fresh. They pulled the shrimp right off the grill for my salad. It didn't take them long to make our salads. Everything tastes amazing.

We were looking for a good light lunch place and ended up here. My friend ordered the Salmon & grilled avocado bowl and I ordered the Baja bowl. Both were delicious. We had a toddler with us so we also got a side of hummus and also an order of the pasta. My absolute favorite thing was the Kale agua fresca. I'm not sure if that is the right name for it but it was green and had pineapple and ginger in it. This drink really felt like it was giving me life! After a long morning of sightseeing, this was definitely the perfect stop! read more

The idea for the food was great. The salad I got, Wharf Louis, was big and full of variety; however, it completely lacked on flavor. I suppose with a collection of avocado, tomatoes, olives, onions, cucumbers, boiled eggs, bacon, crab meat, house-made Caesar dressing, and shrimp, I thought the salad would have a mixture of tastes; however, the flavors all blended into one, bland meal. I assume they didn't season any individual item before adding it, and it doesn't taste like there's any salt added anywhere... I even thought the olives might give it flavor, but nope. They were about as bland as canned (I think they were canned)! The service was nice and the location was a short walk from my hotel, but I probably wouldn't recommend this place if you're looking for flavor. Sorry read more

This was amazing, I'm not sure if it was because I haven't had real food in weeks or just because this burger was so damn good. I feel bad for what I did to their bathroom though. The service was great and fast and the price was on point. The ambiance was great it was really chill and a great place to enjoy some lunch in DC. I would highly recommend this establishment to eat. read more

I'm not sure chopsmith deserves a full 5 stars, but I was torn between 4 and 5, so I rounded up. I've been here a few times and most recently ordered the sticky chicken and cashew. The biggest pro here is the portion size, these salads are huge!! The cashews, pineapple, broccoli, etc were delicious, but the highlight was the chicken. I honestly wish there was more chicken to balance out how much greens there were, but nonetheless a delicious choice. read more

Great restaurant for a quick bite to go, inside dining or sit outside on a cool day. I was in D.C. for work staying at a hotel on the Wharf. I needed a quick lunch after a long travel day and the hotel check-in desk recommended Chopsmith. It is a quick walk and is nicely located near CVS and all the hotels on the Wharf. I went at 3 so the resultant had a few customers so I decided to sit and dine instead of ordering to go. I enjoyed the Chopsmith salad. Fresh greens, tasty dressing and huge portions. It was very filling. I decided to try their Breakfast Buddha Bowl the next morning. It was a great way to start my morning. I loved the mix of sweet potatoes and brussels. In addition to great food, great service and friendly restaurant staff. read more

Being a vegetarian and looking at the menu, I was excited to see halloumi on the menu as I rarely find it in America. I went ahead and ordered the plate which came with one protein (halloumi--3 pieces), house salad or Caesar salad, rustic bread, and two sides (hummus and roasted potatoes). The halloumi was nicely grilled and salty as it already comes, the caesar dressing tasted a little oniony which I was not expected, generous amount of hummus that I realized I did not care for and should have gotten some other grilled vegetables. The potatoes were good. I do wish there was some salt and pepper on the potatoes. I got a creamy herb dressing on the side to go with the salty halloumi. It was super filling. Good healthy fresh dining. Try them out! read more
