Title says it all. Any food type except Indian.
They are visiting and we live in DC. We haven’t been out much since Covid. Please tell me your gems! |

These places have good/reasonably priced food (reasonable for DC, not cheap, but definitely not expense account).
Ramen at Daikaya or Bantam King Mexican/Salvadoran food at El Sol (or go to sister Mezcalero in Petworth) Thai at Baan Siam anything at Unconventional Diner And for more casual/fast casual: Chaia Tacos Call Your Mother (bagels/sandwiches) Shouk Little Sesame |

| I’m always a big fan of Hanks - you can enjoy the Wharf after. |

| Kind of depends on what price point you want. Moon rabbit at the wharf is awesome. Sababa (excellent for brunch, too). And I have had great experiences at Nina May. |

I’m Eddie Cano or Lupo Verde is my go to for out of town era who you’re not sure how adventurous they are. Good food and great vibe.
Estadio is great if they’re up for sharing. Maybe something Jose Andres if they know/are into him. |
