    Succotash is one of my main go to restaurants to bring my friends to when I know I want to give them a legit DC food experience. Came here with one of my friends during a weekend and had a great experience. We walked in and were promptly sat. I had made reservations but thankfully, the place wasn't too crowded so we had no issue getting a table right away. Staff were super friendly and gave us numerous recommendations for food. Succotash has an old Hollywood vibe. The decor is great and feels classy. For food, I ordered the cat fish while my friend ordered the steak with a crab cake. We topped off dessert with the banana pudding which we really enjoyed. I will definitely be back!

    Food is immaculate, 10/10. The waiting staff was amazing, we had a few things come out incorrectly, but they were attentive and quick to fix, big shoutout to Meron, Mary and Clark! This is a great place for Sunday brunch with large or small groups alike. The restaurant itself is beautiful from the architecture to the decor. Everything we ate was amazing, I definitely recommend!

    I recently dined at Succotash Prime for my first time, as I'd already been to their National Harbor location, and I wanted to see the difference, location wise. My experience was so-so and I'm not sure if I'll be back to give them another try. I came in, specifically, to try their Pimento Cheese Burger and saw on their website that it was also on the Happy Hour Menu. I didn't see anything in the Happy Hour Menu area on the website that said it was for bar patrons only. So, I was up for it, since I thought I would be able to dine in the main dining room. I'm not really a drinker and I've personally had multiple poor service experiences in the past while ordering food with no drinks from a bar. However, when I arrived there and requested a table for one, the host asked if I was coming in for Happy Hour, and informed me that I would have to dine at the bar. I was hesitant, but went ahead with it since I was already there, and the bar wasn't too packed. I did see, after the fact, that Happy Hour "at the bar" was placed under the Hours of Operation area instead of the Menu area on their website. The main dining room had a nice ambiance to it. I loved the painted nature scenes on the walls. It almost made it feel like you were outdoors a bit, especially with all the natural light that seemed to fill the space. The bartender seemed friendly and he was pretty quick with greeting and taking my order. The Pimento Cheese Burger was pretty good. Good amount of the Pimento Cheese on top with the Bacon Jam. Pickles were fresh. Gochujang Ketchup added a slight kick. Fries were fresh, not frozen. I'd overall give the Burger and Fries an 8.5 out of 10. Nothing crazy but it was definitely delicious. However, what I did not like was the bartender coming over to the area right in front of me, while I was attempting to enjoy my meal, and slamming down his glasses into the metal grate in front of me. It was a fairly large bar and he only seemed to do it right in front of me, only when my food came out. I was nervous that one of the glasses would shatter, that's how bad it was. It was so loud and this is one of the many reasons why I don't like dining at a bar. I understand that it is the proprietor's or head manager's choice on whether the whole restaurant can partake in "Happy Hour" or only the bar area. They have ever right to make that decision. I just personally don't enjoy restaurants who do choose that option for their patrons. I feel that everyone should be able to have an "Happy Hour" after their long day of work or whatever it may be, with a nice discount on the food or drink. And I fully recognize that this is more of a personal preference than anything else. Like I said above, not sure if I'll be back, but to each their own.

    Hands-down, my favorite meal in DC, and it was very reasonably priced for lunch. Got a salad which was very delicious. Also got the lunch meal which included hush puppies, chicken, and waffles, and banana pudding dessert. The hush puppies had amazing flavor, and were in a spicy sauce with pimento cheese. I saved the rest of that sauce for the main course, which was half a Belgian waffle with two large pieces of fried chicken. The chicken was juicy yet crispy on the outside. The banana pudding was a little too sweet for me, but still delicious. Service was wonderful. Our waitress came by at just the right times, and our food came out pretty quick. The restaurant itself was mostly packed, but we were able to snag last-minute lunch reservations on a Saturday. Since the restaurant has two floors of seating, it was a bit noisy, but not so much that I couldn't hear anyone talking at my table.

    We've wanted to try this place since we saw Edward Lee on culinary class wars...when we arrived, the restaurant was full. We were seated in the main level towards the back. If you have read some of my past reviews, I have an issue with crowded restaurants and loud patrons which end up dampening the experience for me. I am happy to report that although the restaurant was bustling, I had no issues carrying conversations with everyone at our table of six. We shared many different appetizers and each had a main dish then shared desserts. This was an interesting mixture of southern style cuisine and Korean touches here and there. Flavors were all good. Think my favorite dish was the pork belly ssam. I love that there was such a Korean dish in a primarily southern cuisine restaurant.

    Wow what an amazing dinner tonight at Succotash! We were seated right away and were blown away by the bustling ambiance and super high grand ceiling with southern charm. They have an extensive menu but we went for the "small" tastings menu for $60/person with 2 person min. The portion sizes were definitely NOT small and allowed us to have much more than your usual restaurant week prix fixe menu because it came with 4 apps, 3 entrees, choice of 2 sides and 2 desserts. We had to tap out and pack our desserts, 1 side and 1 entree home! Of all the things we ate, the shrimp and grits blew me away the most! The tomato based sauce was jam packed with crab meat and boy was it good...I will definitely get the shrimp and grits again! And our server was just so pleasant and attentive...we were well taken care of! Thank you Succotash for an amazing evening!

    Have been to Succotash on a prior DC trip. But did not get a chance to enter the speakeasy "Mr Lees" until this trip. Great after work option with Happy Hour until 7pm. Really liked their selection of drinks...was there milk in the milk punch? Lol The Cauliflower and Honey cornbread options were delicious. Have had success here two times - would return.

    Rebecca C.

    We walked in for some drinks and their cornbread which was basically our post-dinner dessert. The cornbread is moist and buttery although very crumbly. We sat at the bar and the bartender was having a rough time because he was spilling all over the countertop and pouring drinks messily so it felt rather chaotic but whatever lol

    Visited on a Sunday for brunch with a friend. We opted for the family style brunch option for $31/person. This was a good option as it was our first time and wanted to try multiple things. I wasn't a huge fan of the deviled egg. The shrimp and grits as well as the kimchi greens were my favorite of the dishes that we tried. We enjoyed great service, the waitress was very attentive and the restaurant gives a cute Sunday brunch vibe. I would recommend for a cute brunch date with friends or date.

    I celebrated my 21st birthday here! The service was amazing and the restaurant is just so beautiful. The food was very tasty and they kindly gave me a small dessert with a candle for the celebration. This is a place that is good for a nice lunch or dinner; really good for pics too!

    Another kick ass brunch at succotash! They were offering a $25 three course option that was a great deal. I had three pimento hush puppies, trout over dirty rice, and banana pudding and all was delicious. My friend loved the cornbread, the crab hash, the mint julep ice cream, and her drink, Coffee and Cigarettes. Great and friendly service. Beautiful space.

    An overall 3.75 star review for Succotash Prime. Located in DC, you already know parking is a challenge and there is no street parking. Reservations are recommended, but depending on the day and time of your visit and number of persons in your party, you may get lucky and be accommodated. We made reservations to avoid any crappy seating or prolonged waiting. Although, we decided around lunchtime to go after work, it wasn't difficult to secure a reservation. Not a lot of diners when we arrived on a Friday afternoon at 3:30pm. Seated quickly, Rio was our server. I don't know what they did to him prior to our arrival but he was giving "I don't want to be here" vibes in his speech and body language. He was efficient and checked on us appropriately but had to hand us off to another server who was coming on shift. I wish we had started with her as she had an upbeat outlook and was energetic. There are seasonal cocktails and I went with the Cherry Pick in honor of the blooming of the cherry blossoms in Washington, DC. It was flavorful and I enjoyed it. The menu provided had small variations in what they serve in comparison to their sister location Succotash in National Harbor. An express option at $31 (skirt steak or salmon) with salad, French fries and dessert is a welcome source of variety. I had the catfish sandwich that comes with french fries. I think I got the catfish that was on Ozempic because that was the thinnest fillet of catfish I've seen. Normally catfish is flakier and meatier. The sandwich was good and reheated well since I was only able to eat half during the visit. The interior was very spacious and has an upper level. There is a bar and sometimes they run out of featured cocktails but it gives the opportunity to go with your backup choice. If in the area, I would frequent here again.

    Just amazing from the interior to the music to the food. What a treat. Loved everything about it. Our meal & the options made it challenging to choose one dish. Also gives reasons to return. Being from Kentucky we highly recommend the Hot Brown. You won't be disappointed. We finish our meal with the pecan sticky rolls. So be certain to save room for that treat. We will return out and we highly recommend it. Our server was good, but I can't say great. He definitely knew the menu and made multiple recommendations.

    Merry Christmas From mine to yours! #Christmas2025

There's this NoVA chain restaurant that serves POPCORN before the meal, which I think has to be the most depressing, unappetizing, lazy and cheap way to start a meal. Capital Burger servers sliced sweet pickles in a jar. That.. is a step up from popcorn, but not by much... If I was in the mood for a burger and boozy milkshake, this would be on the list, but not my first choice.

Before getting to the food, I'll first rate the interior excellent. It's big and open, and has a modern yet rustic design, which makes it an excellent atmosphere. They had an impressive list of wines and cocktails, but the draft beer selection was limited. Could use a bit more variety on tap, but I enjoyed the Imperial IPA nonetheless. As for the food; all of it was on the pricey sized given the quality and quantity served, but the salmon collar was by far my favorite -- followed by the chicken, although the chicken was a bit less meaty than I expected. The gem salad, the carrots and the steak fries were all very "meh," and the bisques seemed like small ciabatta buns rather than actual biscuits. All that aside, the biggest disappointment was unfortunately the ax ribeye - it wasn't cooked properly (despite asking for med-rate, depending on the bite, it ranged from medium to very rare), and it was really stringy and fatty - a major disappointment for a steakhouse. Deserts were delicious, I really enjoyed the ice cream cake and thought the peanut butter pie was good. Service was great, prompt and friendly. So I definitely wouldn't recommend this place as a statehouse based on my experience, but would consider coming for the salmon.
