    The food was phenomenal, as usual! The atmosphere was exceptional. This place is such a vibe. Our server was very knowledgeable and offered suggestions without prompting; which is always a nice touch, in my opinion. I like that the food is made to order, because it gives you time to talk and enjoy the meal. There is nothing worse than having your entrée arrive while you are still working on your appetizer. Don't go by the reviews; check this place out for yourself. It is one of our favorites. Remember, any place can have an off night; are you perfect at your job every day?

    What a great place to dine! I have been hearing about Chef Tobias and the Honcho House for a long time. Living in Bmore, I don't make many treks to DC to dine, but I was definitely up for the experience. Drinks were great. My friend loved the Dragonfruit Margarita. We both ordered the Chesapeake and while I could see my reflection in my bowl, my girl opted to take hers home. If this was brunch, I'm definitely returning for dinner. #HappyDining #HappyEats

    Great food, friendly service, nice atmosphere. And the specials are reasonably priced. Ordering ala carte could get expensive, but still great food.

    Food was great, however, they changed their menu significantly and took off all the meat dishes (Iskender kebab and others). Now they only have kebabs with ground beef and chicken (no more cut meat)
