Washington PostOctober 5, 2013Sietsema: Every $7 bowl of soup is a score. Chicken for two is roasted to order (requires 45 mins). Brined in garlic, thyme, black peppercorns and lemon peel, the three-pounder makes fabulous eating. Read more
Ahmet CinarNovember 1, 2014If you feel like going to Brooklyn style avant garde restaurant in Washington Dc, this is the place. One of the most genuine menus I have ever seen. Very good wine selection!
Jeff MervoshMay 6, 2014The roasted chicken is cooked to a crisp and practically falls off the bone. It is incredible. To top it off, the arugula it comes with is bathed in delicious chicken fat. Get it and enjoy.- Robb FitzsimmonsDecember 22, 2014Washingtonian says don't miss: Heirloom-tomato salad; Gruyère-and-tomato grilled cheese; mozzarella “porcupine”; roast chicken for two; lobster roll with French fries; Filipino-style spring rolls.
EaterJanuary 6, 2014Baby Wale is a more casual place serving up dishes like pupusas and a fine roast chicken. Baby Wale has an eye-catching design from Edit Lab at Streetsense.
Andrew WisemanSeptember 29, 2018Cool space, cool posters. Good drinks. Fun fact: this place is named for DC rapper Wale’s small child
Nora LivengoodSeptember 7, 2014Very cute inside, with an impressive selection for such a small kitchen. The Filipino-style spring rolls are especially great.
B HuttonSeptember 14, 2013No cocktail list yet but helpful bartenders will willingly interview you about your taste preferences and craft something amazing for you. Fantastic first impression! Welcome to the 'hood Baby Whale!
The cocktails are so good and change with each season. All the food I’ve tried is super tasty, too.- Chris PhanMay 22, 2016The Salami Pizza was so good we got two. I recommend the Grilled Gruyere Cheese and Smithfield Ham Sandwich!
Gabriela SchneiderApril 6, 2014Felt lucky to savor Power's sensational soup without a white tablecloth experience. Don't be fooled by simple title "celery root" -silken broth tastes like lobster carpaccio
Trevor MMay 5, 2015Meatballs at $14 were quite tasty but kinda a small meal. Watermelon radishes in the salad were very unique!- Rosie HendersonFebruary 28, 2014Great wine! Amazing service! And some of the best spring rolls I have ever had.
Norm SunAugust 31, 2013Try the tomato and arugula salad. It's simple, fresh, and incredibly delicious.
Behrad EatsFebruary 6, 2014The Prosciutto Pizza is pretty delicious, good for an appetizer or entree.
Angie HarmonNovember 28, 2015A mess. Brought wrong beer. Salad overdressed, and somehow they didn't have roasted chicken...on a Saturday dinner service...for the first table.
Alyssa ZhuDecember 20, 2015Extremely slow service... Be prepared for a long dinner. The food is just okay but the atmosphere and decor is relaxing and quite beautiful
Dan DuckwitzOctober 4, 2014Knocked my beer over, bartender replaced said amount of beer, coming back
arishApril 18, 2014avoid the pizza. mine was burnt, flavorless and didn't have shittakes (apparently they cldnt add mushrooms b/c they were being saved for the mushroom fettuccini)
