"Absolutely Delicious. What should you order: Anything! This place has delicious food across the whole menu. We ended up coming two day in a row as it was that tasty. The loaded breakfast biscuits were crazy flavorful. My wife loved the pancakes, which were top notch. The star of the show was the chocolate cake, which may be the best Chocolate cake I’ve ever eaten. Overall come here hungry and leave super happy!"

"It was a pleasant experience, the atmosphere was nice and welcoming. The host and waiters were super friendly, super nice. The restaurant was tidy and clean, unfortunately there was a dirty glass which they changed with a plastic cup, I'll give them 8/10 on that. Talking about the food: I ordered, ● Chiken & waffles: was below average, came really dry and flavorless, very sad. ● Greek Full dead salad with Salmon: was ok, the Salmon was a little over. ● French dip poutine: was good but really heavy. ● Cajun Srimp & Grits: was dilecious. ● Double cheese Burger & Frise: was ok, could be better. The fries are really good. ● Buttermilk pancakes: was to the dry side, but it was ok. The Srawbarry and Brownie cakes area really dilecious. Food quality was ok, survise was really good though. Thank you Carlos. Would I come back? Yes, I would."

"This is an absolute gem in DC with an eclectic menu and something for ever my palate. The staples are comfort food based, something very much a staple in diner cuisine. The restaurant vibe is a take on Upscale diner experience. The service was very attentive and welcoming. Sam did a wonderful job as our waiter and provided awesome hospitality and remained attentive the whole evening. Great service and very helpful with pointing out the best dishes of his opinion on the menu. As for the food….sublime. The whole meal was fantastic from the Sweet Potato Parker House rolls to the double cheeseburgers that were perfection in every bite, a fried chicken sandwich that would tantilize the taste buds, to what truly became a star of the show, the DESSERTS!!! Basque cheesecake, carrot cake, and the chocolate cake were consumed with no crumbs to spare. This was an awesome diner experience. Will absolutely return for the everyday bunch they serve from open to 3:45PM, 7 days a week. Already looking forward to coming back!"

"We had an awesome brunch at Unconventional Diner. The food was cooked perfectly and so tasty. I ordered the loaded breakfast biscuits, which reminded me a bit of a Hawaiian loco moco. The sausage on them was spicy, super flavorful, and clearly homemade or locally sourced, not the generic, pre-packaged stuff. Every bite was rich and satisfying. We also tried the crème brûlée French toast. It came as one thick slice of brioche with a layer of custardy crème brûlée and a crackly sugar topping. I expected it to be overwhelmingly sweet, so I was a little nervous at first, but it was actually perfectly balanced. The sweetness was just right and paired really well with the brioche, giving it a great mix of sweet and savory. On the side, the cheesy grits were fantastic, creamy, comforting, and full of flavor. Overall, I’d definitely go back and would happily recommend Unconventional Diner to any of my friends looking for a great brunch spot."

"​I ordered the double cheeseburger and fries, which took about 15 minutes to prepare. The staff is incredibly friendly and the portions are generous—the burger is huge with two patties and plenty of cheese. I requested my beef cooked medium, and it was executed perfectly. ​The location is easy to find, though keep in mind there are three doors and only one functions as the main entrance. If you’re ordering takeout, you can go straight to the bar. It gets quite busy during lunch with people drinking at the bar, so while bar seating might be limited, there are plenty of other tables available where you can wait for your food."
