    A lot of good duck-related items on the menu: sweet potato fries with duck, pulled duck sandwich, duck burger. Buffalo shrimp and wings are also good.

    No matter what day you come here, ask them about their desserts. They are always delicious, from tiramisu to key lime pie, all sorts of cheesecakes and peanut butter pie! Yum

    Waffle fries with duck are delicious. Also ask them to make any of the burgers with ghost chilis for those who love the insanely spicy. You will not be disappointed.

    So very happily surprised at how perfect this spot is. The Pinch is the perfect neighborhood bar. Good beer. Cozy atmosphere (dive-y but not creepy). AMAZING "meat lover burger." Check it out!

    Friendly local owners and fresh daily desserts based on what the chef feels like baking! Love this neighborhood hangout.

    With its garlic wings, parmesan fries, juicy burgers, and delectable desserts -- not to mention wonderful staff and excellent musical selection -- this place promises to win your stomach.

    Great brunch with excellent (and strong) Bloody Marys and mimosas. Ashley is a phenomenal bartender and server! Also, try the donuts.

    Brunch is phenomenal. This place might have the best bloody mary in all of DC and the staff is truly lovely!

    Somebody pinch me. The burgers are succulent and big, bursting with flavor. The fries are dressed in parmesan and the beer is served ice cold.

    The crab cakes have real crab in them. Shell crunch in every bite. Skip this on the menu.
