Unconventional Diner - Calumet-Norvelt

Awesomely prepared dishes that explode with flavor , great service and reasonably priced cant ask for more than that !!!

Delicious! Very busy during workday lunch, but staff was very kind despite it being hectic.Chill and nice atmosphere.Gender neutral restrooms.Ordered the brussel sprouts with egg, such a filling dish! The tikka sauce took it to the next level.Drink is the Hawaiian Punch, very tasty and non-alcoholic.Ordered a side of Naan, it was topped with garlic and very well cooked.I can see why this is on the 100 top DC restaurants list!

Great food, they were super busy so the service to get our check was slow. I understand that, and I think they were doing their best. Before and after of the burger and pancakes. I got a lemon ginger mocktail, he got a margarita, but he didn’t like it much. Some of the prices felt a bit odd, like $6 for 4 slices of bacon. But maybe I’m not used to big city diners ? $83 for two people was high! They add a mandatory 20% gratuity to the bill, so that was a surprise. Like, we would have tipped that much but making it mandatory for two people is just odd. Maybe it’s because it was Sunday?

Great place for amazing food and cocktails! Especially the French Dip Poutine.
