    I've been a fan of Matchbox for many years. It has one of the best happy hour offerings in the DMV.

    This place was ok. Food was decent but service is dreadfully slow. Had an early dinner before long drive home and restaurant was dead so there was no reason for the slowest table service I've ever received in my life. Go elsewhere if you can.

    Ribeye is good! $38
    James T.

    Had a pretty good meal at MatchBox, which serves up a lot of traditional American flare. Looks to be part of a large restaurant group for the area. Ordered the ribeye that came with carrots, asparagus and mashed potatoes $38. The steak was great. The service was a bit slow in a half empty restaurant, but that wouldn't keep me from stopping in again,

    Had a good dinner here. I very much enjoyed the matchbox mule which was blackberry flavored. I also enjoyed the apple and pear salad which was light and refreshing! I wouldn't recommend the donuts however. While the raspberry sauce they came with was very good, the donuts themselves were off and felt like I could taste the oil they were fried in. Comfortable atmosphere and friendly service!

    Very cool restaurant with live music - atmosphere was upbeat and lively for 2:30pm on a Saturday! We found 2 seats at the bar and got a quick lunch. They were very accommodating for the pizzas, allowing us to do half bbq jerk chicken and half honey honey/ pepperoni. The bbq chicken half was definitely our favorite. Salad was solid. Overall, this place can't lead you wrong!

    Brunch Menu
    Ieshia T.

    While in DC, we decided to come here for brunch to take advantage of their AYCE brunch. We had reservations somewhere else but when we saw this location was close and remembered how much fun we had at the Silver Spring location, it was a no-brainer to definitely go here for brunch instead. It was pretty empty when we arrived and were seated almost immediately. The seats were dirty with crumbs and food so I waited for our server/hostess to come back so I could inform them but she took a minute so I found an employee who graciously came and cleaned the seat off. I sat down and almost started dancing in my seat from the anticipation and remembering how good the food was at the Silver Spring location. I also wanted to order one of everything LOL When our server finally came back we quickly learned that if you're doing unlimited both parties have to order it at the bar table and since my friend only wanted something small to eat, that wasn't going to work for us. Now, I was faced with the decision of trying to decide on one item only! Do you know how hard it is for me to decide before going to a restaurant, as I'm looking at their menu, on what I would like to eat? I just asked our server to put in my friend's order and come back for mine. As we sat there, we wondered if we should have sat at the bar instead so I could have ordered my unlimited and they could have only ordered what they wanted. It was interesting because we asked the server this and they replied the same rule would apply for the bar, which didn't make sense because if I'm sitting at the bar I'm responsible for my own bill. But ok . . . . I decided to go with the shrimp and grits and asked for the sauce on the side after I confirmed the sausage didn't contain pork. The grits came out fresh and seasoned with unoverbaring cheese. The shrimp are an afterthought though since they didn't have any seasoning at all. They are highly depending upon that cajun sauce to season the shrimp when it should be simmered in it or at least he's in with those same spices that the sauce contains. My stomach started turning on first bite which made me happy I didn't go with the unlimited because I don't know if I would have been able to eat more. It was a good playlist on and that was about it. Definitely only going to the Silver Spring location hence forward.

    Hawaiian pizza
    Cathryn G.

    This is a great family friendly option in Penn Quarter. We were looking for someplace that everyone in the family could find something to eat and this fit the bill. My son is obsessed with pepperoni pizza and their kids pizza is 10 inches which is a great size. My child ate the whole thing! He loved it my husband and I split a 14 inch pizza, which was plenty for the two of us. The pizza was served very quickly, which was great. My husband also ordered the crab soup which he thought was outstanding. They also have other people pleaser foods like burgers and fries. Our service was fast and friendly and prices were very reasonable.

    Strawberry and Goat Cheese Salad
    Eid F.

    Food tastes good. Portion size was good for the burger and fries but the salad wasn't that substantial and a little small for an "entree" priced dish. Service started a little rough. Waiters were arguing amongst each other while a few tables waited to be seated. It took a while to get going but eventually they resolved their situation and service improved. The place is pretty large but not good for large groups. We were seated at table in the center of the restaurant and directly in front of the entrance. We made the best of it but probably should have just split ourselves into 2 booths.

    Black Bean Veggie Burger
    Courtney J.

    Great veggie black bean burger, good thinner crust pizzas. If you're not at/in the bar service seems to always lack. Never have had a good experience in the regular seating. Good food, but very overpriced even for the area. Lots of surrounding restaurants with significantly better prices and service.

    Karen T.

    Found this place while looking for a happy hour after a day of museums. The happy hour is pretty decent. $10 drinks and some food items as well. The pizza was okay, I feel like it could have had more flavor and we chose the pizza because the other pizzas looked delicious around us. We also shared a smash burger that was not pictured. It was just a bit confusing. They brought food out to our table and it was 2 smash burgers and they brought an extra plate on the side. I guess they had given us the wrong food because we asked for a smash burger to be cut in half. Instead of leaving one of the burger orders on our table, they took all the food off our table. A few minutes later, the burger cut in half was given to us on separate plates.. with no fries. I was confused because our burger came on separate plates, so I assumed the fries on the separate plate was supposed to go with our burger. Because everyone else around us was getting fries with their burger order on their plates. We asked if the burger was supposed to come with fries.. and they said no because it was happy hour. But everyone else was getting it with fries.. they ended up giving us a plate of fries for the burger. Our waiter was so kind and so nice and gave us suggestions. It was such weird and seemed like miscommunication with the staff.

    Classic Brownie
    Andrea C.

    Delicious!! The hot honey pizza was to die for! And the dessert was HUGE and delicious!! I would definitely recommend stopping by after a long day of walking and activities. The pizzas were pretty big and you'll definitely fill up if you compliment with an appy or dessert. We came here after visiting the national gallery of art and the walk was bearable. The staff was fantastic! The only thing I will say is their soft drinks are a BIT overpriced... i think i paid $5 for a coke :c but the bill for everything was no more than $55

    James K.

    Ummm....YES. Yes you should come here. This place is great. Love the atmosphere. Service was spot on. Super friendly and attentive. The burger cooked to perfection (medium). Soooo good If I lived in DC this would be a spot I would regular. Can't recommend enough

    Cilantro Lime Chicken Salad
    Angel P.

    We came on a weekend so we were offered both the brunch and lunch menu. We ordered the cilantro lime chicken salad and fried chicken breakfast sandwich. The salad was decent, and the breakfast sandwich was very oily/greasy. The plate came with a splash of oil, and when eating, a decent amount of oil dripped out. Our server was very attentive and kind. The main entrance has a few steps, but there is an accessible side door. The bathroom is down a flight a stairs, and there is one private bathroom on the main level.

If you do anything when you go, please make sure to get the biscuits. Hands down THE BEST BISCUITS I've ever had lol. They are the most flaky and buttery biscuits, you can count each layer that these have. Pro tip is to ask for butter and the house made jam. The pimento cheese is good with them but it becomes a little too decadent. Overall I'm happy we made the decision to come here, we will be back soon.

Across the table we had two of the double cheese burgers (I warned, we have a lack of adventurous eaters) -and they both said the burgers were the best they've had. I had the Philly French double dip, with horseradish cream and caramelized onions-so fantastic-the roast beef was melt in your mouth and the broth was the perfect saltiness. Our fourth got the fried chicken sandwich and really loved the dill pickle slaw that came with it, and the chicken was not over cooked and not raw-perfect! We all had fries with our meals, the thinner kind with light seasoning and none of us could stop eating them, even when we were clearly full, the fries just kept disappearing.

The cheeseburgers were the best- from the restaurant downstairs- mallard. Huge burger, done perfectly medium.

I visited as part of the full experience -- dinner downstairs at Birch & Barley, then up to Churchkey for drinks -- and honestly, it's one of the best evenings I've had in DC. Churchkey itself is everything a great bar should be. The beer selection is absolutely unreal -- hundreds of carefully curated labels spanning every style, region, and flavor profile you can imagine. What sets it apart is that the staff actually knows the menu. Our server walked us through a few options based on what we liked and landed us on perfect picks both times. That kind of genuine expertise is rare. The tavern pizzas from the wood-fired oven were a wonderful surprise -- thin, crispy, and the perfect companion to a cold draft. The smash burger also deserves a mention: simple, well-executed, and hits the spot. The vibe is warm and lively without being overwhelming. Great for a date, a group, or even just sitting at the bar solo with a good beer and good conversation with the bartender. This place has earned its reputation as one of the best beer bars on the East Coast -- and then some. Highly recommend making a full night of it with both floors. You won't regret it. Feel free to adjust the tone or add any personal details from your actual visit!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

They also provide complimentary sweet pickles. Enormous thanks to our server, Stephon!! We loved his contagious smile, he treated us with so much respect and kindness.

    Have you ever been to a high end place and ordered a burger? You get that look like ordering steak…read moreat a great seafood place. Well I do enjoy burgers and plenty of places have upped their burger game. As much as it cost for a burger at certain fast food places you might as well hit up some of these other places. The prices are basically the same now. On a few trips to Capital Grille I did go with the burger and so I decided to check out its affiliate Capital Burger. Capital Burger actually has more burger options to choose for over Capital Grille and a more slimmed down menu. Still with the name burger in its name, you know where their focus is. I went with the bacon cheeseburger that comes with candied smoke bacon that came at $22 with your chose of sides (fries or various salads). It was cooked to the perfect medium rare and you can tell when a burger is cooked with better ingredients and cooked with a give a damn. It was not thrown together, and the fries were not just sitting under a heating lamp. I actually ordered a to go burger for the spouse. Here is where customer service comes in. I was asked how far I had to travel and the person taking my order said she will separate portions so it will travel better. Thank you. It is that little extra that goes a long way. This time I went with the Capital Burger to go along with some key lime pie to nibble on later. Great service and great food. There are plenty of good burger places but if you are a burger fan then definitely check this place out. Absolutely no disappointment. For a true high end burger experience I have no problem giving this place a solid five stars.
