monsterriffs Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 I couldn't find a thread for Sprig & Sprout up here in Glover Park, but I think it warrants one. S&S is a fine addition to the Wisconsin Ave. strip of restaurants, and actually is putting out some pretty quality bowls of pho and vermicelli. The pho here is what I would characterize as pretty good in a pinch if I don't have time/the desire to go to Pho Viet or somewhere in the burbs. The beef is flavorful, the noodles nicely al dente, and most importantly, the broth is satisfying and lacks that cloying aftertaste the broth at cheap pho joints has. Additionally, their vermicelli has become my go-to summer dish. Packed with really fresh veggies and a healthy dose of mint, the dish's refreshing coolness cuts through DC's classic humidity. They apparently have a strong beer list, which is unusual for a Vietnamese place, and one day, when I have a bit more time to kill for dinner, I'll work through their beer list (has some favorites from Bell's, for example). I'm happy with this addition to the neighborhood as it provides a nice, fresh option for lunch or dinner, and the space is as open and warm as the owners and staff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Deb Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 We went to check out Sprig & Sprout for dinner last night. We tried the pork spring rolls, beef and broccoli, and beef stew (bo koh). All the dishes were very fresh and flavorful. They are now offering a supper club--the next one is May 26th. On select Mondays, they close the upstairs dining room and offer a 7 course tasting menu for $45. Sounds like a bargain for the variety of food offered. They are also going to offer limited delivery service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Huber Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 They also have vegetarian pho, which is a bit hard to find around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonRocks Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 They also have vegetarian pho, which is a bit hard to find around here. This came up recently in the Pho & Grill thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
