Best Kid Friendly Restaurants in Ivy City

Great food! Friendly staff! We loved the decor and the building setup. It’s a really unique. And probably the best breakfast we had while In DC this week.

This was my family and I 1st time there and our server Keith was amazing from start to finish. He gave us breakfast, coffee and dessert recommendations and they were all awesome. Love the atmosphere as well. The Armstrong Family

Fabulous food and service! The scallops with butternut squash puree, shrimp with garlic sauce, potatoes with brave sauce and garlic aioli and onions with pine nuts and blue cheese were fantastic as always. The flan was the perfect dessert. The service was quick despite a busy Saturday crowd and courteous.

I recently hosted my team’s weekly meeting over breakfast at Ted’s Bulletin, NOMA, and it exceeded all my expectations! From the moment we walked in, I was struck by the beautiful ambiance and chic décor—a perfect blend of modern sophistication and comfort that set the tone for a productive and enjoyable morning. The customer service was outstanding. The staff was incredibly attentive, ensuring every detail was handled seamlessly for our group. They were welcoming and quick to accommodate any requests, making us feel right at home. Of course, the food was another highlight! From their hearty breakfast options to their creative coffee selections, everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. My team couldn’t stop raving about their dishes. If you’re looking for a spot that combines style, service, and substance, Ted’s Bulletin in NOMA is the place to go. It was the perfect venue for our meeting, and I’ll definitely be back—whether for business or just a relaxing meal. Highly recommend!

The City Tap House - Penn Quarter was PACKED so I'm glad we were able to get reservations. The food was excellent, but conversation at the dinner table was difficult because it was very noisy. We had a few issues with ordering via the QR code. When I ordered my food, the site returned an error. When I resubmitted my order, I had two orders. I was able to flag down someone who had to go to the kitchen to cancel my duplicate order. Then I had a third food order waiting to be submitted, so I had to flag someone down again to delete it from my order. The online system could use some improvements, but overall it was a good experience. The food and drinks came out quickly and I found I actually liked ordering and paying from my phone. The link to Apple Pay made it a SNAP! That being said, I received a phishing email overnight that my Apple Pay had been suspended. I deleted that, but it makes me wonder about the security of the online system.
