Delicious food, friendly service, great location! - Edit

Love this place! Went there 3 days in a row when they opened. The staff is super friendly, always smiling and pleasant. The food comes out quickly and is sooo good!

Yum! - Edit

My husband and I happened to stumble in here from out of town not knowing that the restaurant opened just 3 days before we arrived. The service was so good and the staff so on top of things we never would have realized if we hadn't been told by one of the other customers. We liked it so much that we returned again for dinner the next day.

The food is very creative and flavorful. We particularly recommend the Bistro Bella, Massaman Tofu Wrap, and the Chipotle Fajita Wrap. The sweet potato fries were good with the sriracha aioli - not too spicy! The chocolate milkshake was quite rich, I only finished half. The banana whip was good but may have been better if they would mix a spoonful of peanut butter into the mix.

The only downside is that it was a bit crowded and we had trouble finding seats. Not really a big problem, we just grabbed our food and ate it on the steps of the National Portrait Gallery. In spite of the lines food came out quite quickly.

I hope their next location opens in Boston so I can visit more often!

Pros: Tasty, flavorful food, Superfriendly employees, nice, central location

Cons: Could be hard to find a seat, kind of hard to see the sign if you're walking alo

Vegan, healthful fast food - Edit

Imported not too far from the I-95 corridor, Hip City Veg has arrived in DC to a low key buzz but a full fledged stream of hungry veg*n diners.

Why is this place good? It's easy food - sandwiches and wraps, or get them on greens. Salads and Groothie green smoothie, iced tea and lemonades. So good and healthful.

Everything is vegan, and just about everything can be gluten free, just remove the bread, wrap, chicken or steak, and it's gluten-free for nearly every item that has gluten. They have tofu, but if that's not your thing, ask for a substitute.

Jerk chicken (gluten) is spicy flavor. Massaman *curry* tofu is a rich flavor. Buffalo bella - oh who doesn't want portabella mushrooms? Great choice for a protein base.

Two side salads (Asian and Casear), and a few solid entree salads. My fav has to be arugula-based, and they deliver it here with the arugula taco salad. It's perfectly all arugula for its greens, and is garnished with some corn, black beans, creamy dressing, ¼ of an avocado, 6-7 tortilla chips and pico de gallo. PERFECT.

The other items you need to try: soy ice cream milkshakes. Who doesn't like milk shakes? Well, ok, if you're on a diet or don't like soy, you prob are not into it... But for everyone else, YES! For everyone, though, banana whip! Bananas never had it so good. Frozen and pureed, instant vegan soft serve. Add on chocolate chips, cookie crumbs or brownie pieces.

Simple food, with ingredients that you can feel confident are 100% vegan.

Love it.

Seating is limited: 4 stools by the windows, a short ledge area, and about 5 tables for 2. It's fast though, so order, get your food, and wait to eat in the cafe, or, walk outside to a convenient downtown DC landmark to enjoy your meal.

Prices are fair for downtown DC. You'll be back to try something before you know it.
