1310 Kitchen and Bar

Bakery made gluten free hamburger bun, with a burger that uses premium cut beef, and hand cut fries ?!?! Best gf burger period. Having an enjoyable bun plus alllll the traditional accoutrements was a huge treat. Service was awesome, felt like I was back home in nj/Ny at a bustling brunch hot spot... the kale salad was fabulous and I'd get it again in a heart beat! Wonderful music and cozy vibes- just great !

The final stop on our adventures was a mediocre establishment in Georgetown. My top-tier chum who literally went to the school of hospitality and I both wanted to see this section of the DC metro area and I personally had been advocating aggressively for a quick peek at the Exorcist Steps (which I got to see but even I can't quite figure out how to write a lengthy review for stairs). This restaurant was about a 10-minute walk from there, which honestly felt longer because it was the Tuesday morning after the Inauguration and still hanging out in the single digits. But we carried on, as we do.The building 1310 was in was pretty cool - it's in the same location as the Georgetown Inn, which I imagine a lot of bougie college parents end up staying at when they visit their kids nearby. You can access the restaurant directly from the street, but to use the facilities requires a quick trip through the Inn's lobby, which as bathroom walks go was pleasant. We visited in the late morning/early afternoon, which was prime brunch time. Maybe because it was a Tuesday and officially no longer part of even a long holiday weekend, it was pretty empty during our visit.I'm willing to bet that this just isn't the time to go (weekday brunch), because 1310 has a really good reputation but I just didn't see it during our visit. I don't think the cream of the crop was on the clock and unfortunately it showed, particularly from the service side. Beyond the fact that it was very slow and we had to aggressively locate/hail down our waiter multiple times - and weren't even in a rush - the biggest issue for me occurred when we were ordering. My chum doesn't eat pork and asked if one of the items on the brunch menu (I think it was an omelet) had that ingredient in it. The waiter said no, but you could tell from his demeanor that he wasn't sure, so she asked again. This time he stuttered nervously and said he would check in the kitchen. That's a huge miss in my book - the pork was a dietary preference but I don't even think that matters. There are plenty of reasons why people don't eat certain items and if you can't trust the waitstaff to know the menu and more importantly convey it to you? Huge problem. What if it had been an allergy? Also, a pretty wild aside - I saw a nearby customer walking around the bar area looking for assistance, only to be stopped by the person she'd just been talking to, who had to clarify SHE was the person to ask. The customer assumed they'd been communicating with a fellow patron, not a staff member. I'm not sure I've ever seen that before. I ended up getting the avocado toast with a side of bacon, which was fine. The bacon was on the dry side and in hindsight I would have just gotten the toast and foraged for something savory on our walk afterwards. (And in 1310's defense, the last bacon I had was literally hanging off a clothesline that I had to cut down with scissors - everything after that was going to be a letdown.) The taste of the toast was good and unique; the inclusion of the pomegranate seeds was definitely an interesting touch. I think the texture was a little too crunchy but that's just my personal palate coming out to play. This wasn't a bad experience but it wasn't memorable and there unfortunately weren't many positives to it. It's unlikely I'd come back if I were in the area; there are so many other options to sample. But regardless, I would avoid coming back for sure during this time of the week.

Had a great time eating brunch at 1310 this past weekend. I've always wanted to try it and finally got the chance to. Everyone was very nice and the service was great, not rushing but still checking in with us plenty! I ordered the huevos rancheros and a mimosa and both were delicious!! I will say this meal was on the expensive side but definitely worth it with how cute it was inside and how nice everyone was. Would recommend everyone should give this place a try!

Place was packed for brunch on a late Saturday morning. We didn't wait too long as we opted for a table I'm the bar area. While we were initially seated at a long communal table, we asked to move to a private one that we saw was available. There weren't a lot of combinations listed with the breakfast plates, but there were mostly healthy options available. My favorite thing was the homemade Turkey sausage. I wished I could get a dozen to take home.The chef does sell meals to take and freeze. Though not breakfast items. Next time we will try dinner. One thing that wasn't the best--the restrooms were outside of the restaurant and down a hall. Which in DC isn't uncommon. But the narrow hallway was dark and dank and the restroom itself appears to be an weird old locker room. Overall I had a good experience here with my husband.

Great brunch spot in Georgetown!! The Shakshuka was delicious, healthy, and rich with flavor. Not something I usually order but absolutely loved it! The portions of various dishes looked substantial and well played. My cousin got the tuna rice bowl and it looked so good!

Was walking past and decided to stop in for a quick lunch, the food was so good! I recommend the chicken pot pie. All of the staff were so pleasant and attentive. It is not too noisy, so a good spot to get work done.

Large restaurant attached to the lobby of the Georgetown Inn. Nice decor with pictures of female recording artists decorating the walls. Large but noisy space. Service was excellent and very understanding of the needs of small kids. The food (and cocktails) were excellent. Highly recommend the parmesan risotto balls. They were a hit with the adults and the kids. The pot pie was hearty and delicious. The filet of Branzino was also delightful.

First time trying this place and it did not disappoint. Staff was attentive and friendly. Great recommendations as to what to order. Our server did not steer us wrong. The breakfast tacos were delicious with a little spicy kick. The place is clean and not too noisy. Very good brunch!

I've been wanting to try this spot every time I've walked by, but we were never hungry when we did so today we finally checked it out.The good Our server was great. The badEverything else. When they finally brought our food out, they brought the wrong plate for my wife. When they returned with her Croque Madame, it was room temperature. She mentioned it and they made it again, but only a little bit warmer this time. (It was a new one as she'd taken two bites of the first)I ordered the chicken sandwich and it was 90 percent breading, the thinnest chicken thigh I've ever eaten. The taste wasn't bad, but for the price I would've been better off else where.I'll probably give it another try, like I said the staff was nice and the food wasn't bad, maybe just an off day.

The food was delicious, the staff attentive, and the ambience lovely. I'll definitely be back!
