Best Restaurants with a Wood Oven in Columbia Heights / Brightwood

We really enjoyed our dinner. Everything was wonderful: the appetizers, main course, and dessert. Loved the risotto with mushrooms! I was so excited to be eating gluten free bread warm out of the oven which I have sadly been unable to do for years — since I’m gluten sensitive. The service was really excellent! We will be coming again! Don’t change anything! Thank you so much!

Wonderful service and the food was excellent. There are more favorites for me to order now: The coal fired I dishes really shine. The burger is always consistently great, and their avocado and shrimp salad is my favorite. The mushroom lasagna I ordered today is my new favorite. So light and elegant but so much depth of flavor. Scallops are always the best - my daughter who orders scallops everywhere she goes said that it was one of the best that she has had. The chicken was not done completely a small part of it was still a bit raw, and the swordfish was a bit tough. But all the sides were perfectly done. Hash browns and sweet potatoes are a must. The carrots were packed with flavor. The service was excellent.

The Christmas brunch at Harth was lovely. Great service, beautiful setting, delicious food. The buffet had a great variety of traditional items and interesting new things, and they were all delicious. Santa was a nice touch!

We have been going to Ella's since it opened several years ago. The food is always well prepared, delicious and served quickly by very lovely servers. We especially like the beet and orange salad and the Di Mare pizza which is made with pesto and shrimp. It's also conveniently located across the street from the Smithsonian Portrait Gallery/American Art Museum. We love Ella's!

A favorite lunch spot for years. I love the Caesar salad and pepperoni pizza (minus the hot honey) and many beverage choices (loved the Autumn Mule). Our server was stretched thin but was very pleasant. Look forward to my next visit.
