Franklin's is one of our favorite restaurants in the area. This is locally owned and all of the food is made from scratch. There is a brewery on the premises as well as a quirky gift shop that is lots of fun to visit. They also have a new "tiki beach" outdoor dining area complete with real beach sand and picnic tables to dine at. The crab dip and mussels are our favorite!

District taco started as a favorite spot among locals in DC, but has expanded to multiple locations in the last few years. The food is always fresh and they have many salsas to choose from. Our favorites are the fish tacos, California burrito, and chips and queso.

Union Market is a great spot to spend a weekend afternoon! It is essentially a large, trendy warehouse that has multiple restaurants, smaller food booths, jewelry, fresh seafood, coffee, and more. There is something for everyone to eat here! I recommend grabbing food and eating outside, or heading up to the rooftop (one of the largest in DC!) to hang out.
