Food Scene

I am a huge patron of Southside 815. I am friends with the owners and staff and frequent the establishment myself. Just tell them Becky sent you! Food is to DIE for (Happy Hour Burgers are $5)!

Don't sit at the bar here, you get much better service at the tables in the restaurant. The food is great, wine menu is great, and it's an old Firehouse with this HUGE window and it's just a super cool place to grab a nice dinner.

Sightseeing

You can be in Maryland, DC, and Virginia in one park! It's quiet and other than the giant Woodrow Wilson Bridge overhead it's quiet and you forget it's in the city!

Essentials

Boutique Grocery store. Everything you need during your stay and it's right next door. I recommend checking out the wine, beer, and port selection and trying something from the bakery!

Getting Around

King Street Metro is a mile walk from my cozy condo. Or you can get a $5 uber to it. It's on the yellow line and very central!

I go here and get food and drinks at the bar. Their wine is great and the food is amazing. If you're looking for Oysters this is absolutely the place to hit! (Also next door is a cupcake place that is amazing!)
