  1. Visited the MtP branch last night for dinner. One of the slicker places in Mount Pleasant, but that's a low bar and not necessarily a compliment. There are a few levels, with the top being much more pub like- lots of TVs, high tables, and a bar. My companion had eaten at the Foggy Bottom location and confirmed that it was much larger and more sterile. More items on the menu that ran towards the less interesting. In other words, squarely aimed at GW students. I can echo the reviews of many here: order burgers and tots. And add that I'd shoot for the happy hour 1/2 price burgers/beers deal. If so- you're getting a pretty good meal for the price. If not, 11-12 dollars for these burgers is too expensive (See Burger, Rays The Hell-). We also tried the fried Lumpia appetizer. Tasty and a nice attempt at street food with a good dipping sauce, though a bit of a sodium nightmare as you could smell the fish sauce before it even got to the table. I've also eaten here for brunch. Service was decent and as long as you stick with greasy American favorites, you should be in good shape.

I don't food blog, but I do frequently tweet interesting restaurants, food experiences, or events.. general culinary adventures- @pete_eats. I'm not in the "industry" anywhere, but I am an avid homebrewer and cook. Excited to join the community!
