Brittany JobesMay 22, 2017Dim sum starts at 11:30 on Sundays - get there at 11 if you want a table. The food was awesome but they had some issues getting it out of the kitchen. Try the Brussels sprouts and Bloody Mary!
St茅phane E. de FitteJune 3, 2016The best croissants in DC! As buttery as they are supposed to be. Even better than many places in Paris...(trust a French guy who bake his own bread!) 馃槈 The moccha buns are great too!
BaturalpMarch 12, 2018You cannot go wrong here. Our table was next to kitchen in the back (recommended) and everything was super delicious. Fried chicken is a must! They have solid cocktails.
Behrad EatsFebruary 14, 2016The Painted Hills Ribeye Bao Platter is a amazing dish! Free-range ribeye cooked to perfection, steamed buns, & local vegetables.
Veronica UribeNovember 24, 2021Everything is good. Do not miss the Gua Bao with red pork, the shrimp dumplings and the lo mein. Also the chocolate cake with matcha and hazelnut ice cream is a must.- Behrad EatsFebruary 14, 2016Don't leave without ordering the Taiwanese Fried Chicken and Bread made with organic chicken, five spice caramel, & housemade bread loaf.
Bon Appetit MagazineOctober 18, 2016It鈥檚 like a little bit of Tokyo landed on H Street. Browse the shop while you wait for your table, or just grab a cup of coffee made from house-roasted beans on the second floor. Read more
A nice retail space with a coffee shop nested in the back of the top floor and great food hidden in the back of the first floor. Probably the most brooklyn shop in dc. Worth a visit for sure.
Aleksandra ArcipowskaOctober 5, 2017It deserves 11/10! Food is great! No it is even better! Fresh! Delicious! Njam njam ! We have tried Noodles with mushrooms, Grilled broccoli, vegge dumplings and mochi desert! Loved it! Must try!- Behrad EatsFebruary 14, 2016For the heat-seekers out there, get the Spicy Laab over Bone Marrow consisting of mixed herbs, ground pork, chilis, & beef bone.
Byron WilkesJanuary 13, 2016Words can hardly describe how good my experience was here. Sit at the chef's counter. Get the whole fish and marrow. Savor in victory and relish in the flawless fusion of two great Asian cuisines.- Behrad EatsFebruary 14, 2016The crispy gruyere dumplings with spicy braised beef and mustard greens are a great starter for the table.
Kara J.March 14, 2018Dessert here was delicious! I definitely recommend trying various things and sharing plates with a friend.
Roxanne MauckMarch 30, 2016Everyone talks about the Fried Chicken, but having been 3 times now, it was one of my least favorite dishes I tried. Don't get me wrong, it's delicious, but being adventurous rewards you even more!- Behrad EatsFebruary 14, 2016Taiwanese Braised Pork Belly just melts in your mouth! Soy-braised Berkshire pork belly w/ fermented mustard greens.
- Don't leave without checking out the vending machine outside on the second floor. There is a refill on the drip coffee.
Neville EmmanuelMarch 20, 2016Try the Bao's you will like them. The Maketto Chicken is very good. Ask them to go light on the house sauce it is sweet.- Christine HaJanuary 16, 2019Everything is solid, especially the eggplant spread (ask for extra bread), whole fish, lamb noodles 馃崋馃 Hipster vibe set in a clothing store. Public transit here is nil
Sophia HAugust 26, 2017Maketto fried chicken was amazing! The skin has the tongue-tingling spiciness of Sichuan peppercorns, which I love. Cambodian ground pork curry was great too.
Tessa MernaJanuary 30, 2016Awesome restaurant and concept! Erik Bruner-Yang is a DC treasure. You have to go here, you will not regret it!
Alex SongJuly 12, 2016Stuff from the rooftop bar next door (5-6 floors up) sometimes gets knocked over and falls into the outdoor courtyard part. A falling ashtray almost cracked my head open. Lawsuit waiting to happen馃憥馃徏
Rachel ShifmanApril 5, 2016What a unique place! It's a clothes store in front, restaurant in back. The food is incredibly well prepared and combines interesting flavors. The leek buns were my favorite!
Tyler ChartierMay 15, 2015Great third wave coffee shop in a sweet space! Large tables, outside area, Asian restaurant, and 2 bars! this place is the pinnacle of H street.
Bitches Who BrunchDecember 12, 2016Maketto is a hipster Mecca but the Vietnamese and Cambodian influenced dim sum boasts a dynamite char bao bun and the best fried chicken we had all year.
- Ray HartjenJune 18, 2016Upstairs cafe offers great coffee, as well as a place to chill and get some work done. Try the ham and scallion biscuit for breakfast.
TanishaOctober 23, 2015La Ferla Nero d'Avalo and the Taiwanese Fried Chicken (and bread) were my post yoga delight. Perfectly imperfect.
Adam HickeyJanuary 7, 2016For two people, they recommend two small plates and one large one. Or four small plates.
Amy CummingsNovember 11, 2018Really cool spot that鈥檚 a cross between retail, a cafe, a restaurant, and a bar.
Coffee. Buns. Great dinner. But if you're just stopping by, simply enjoy the space and those friggin' addictive Chinese Doughnuts
John StevensonJuly 5, 2015Obnoxiously long waits. The fish, the bao, the Taiwanese chicken and the sausage are the best options hands down. Avoid the scallion pancakes.
AmateurConciergeMay 3, 2018great Asian food. Cauliflower was dope and the lamb noodles totally addictive!
Dan MoneyOctober 26, 2019Beats is sick, flatwhite on point and boutique has great curation {what's that jacket, margiela?} Food was good but nothing that special
Lindsay GoldmanJanuary 6, 2017Get the pork bao, the lo mein, and the wok-fried noodles. Cocktails are good too.
Very, very hard to describe Maketto. Come in for a nice pair of shoes and a great cup of coffee.
Carsten SchmidtAugust 13, 2015Great design, one of the nicest places to sit outside and really good coffee- AmateurConciergeJune 13, 2018Fried chicken is overwhelmingly breaded. Suggest the fish as a superior alternative
Ernie SmithOctober 25, 2015Second floor has great coffee and an even better environment for getting stuff done.
