Froggy Bottom Pub is truly one of the hidden treasures of DC. On the outside, it looks like a normal pub-type restaurant. It looks clean but definitely bar food - and if you look at the menu quickly, you might make that same mistake. The menu has things like wings, mozzarella sticks, burgers, wraps, sandwiches, and pizza, but if you look closer you'll see there are also Vietnamese dishes mixed in. The website does the best job of explaining the reasoning here with its emotional story about the two owners escaping Vietnam during the war only to be picked up by a Thai fishing boat. The woman was able to move to Paris and gave the man an ultimatum to find her by a certain time, and he ended up showing up on her doorstep right at the end of the limit - they moved to the US and opened a restaurant afterwards. It's such an amazing story I definitely recommend reading the whole thing on their website, but that's the reason for the amazing Vietnamese food on the menu!I ordered the Bun Cha Froggy and the Fresh Garden Rolls, but I'd definitely go back for their Banh Mi and maybe Pho if I was eating in. Everything was amazing, and they even sat me at a table with water while I was waiting for my takeout order.Fresh Garden Rolls ($7) - These are great! They have a nice chewy exterior and are packed full of noodles, veggies, shrimp, and pork. The peanut sauce was a nice addition, but I also dipped them in some of the fish sauce from the Bun Cha which was also very tasty. I'd definitely order these again - and they're reasonably priced!Bun Cha Froggy ($15) - I love Bun Cha - it's like a salad with rice noodles, pickled veggies, and grilled meat. This one was great and came with a HUGE tub of their sweet and tangy fish sauce, which I doused my noodles in. I had enough leftover to eat with the springrolls too, but the Bun Cha was so fresh and tasty with the perfect amount of seasoning on the meat. I know I said I'd like to try other dishes, but I'd have a hard time not ordering one of these next time I come here too. Delicious!

We were looking for a spot to eat after a long day around DC and a Nationals Game and we were in the mood for Pho and stumbled upon this place which was a short 10 min walk from our hotel.Location was easy to find and the place was very clean and well maintained.Service is something that needs to be addressed as we were waiting about 5 mins to be seated even though the place wasn't packed and many tables were open. The bartender and the owner was the only ones doing everything so o think if there was another person hired then it would be better and faster service.The rooms on the other hand was excellent and reasonably priced. I was there with a friend and we both got the Pho Froggy which was very flavorful and the broth was really good too. Portion size was great as well.Going back to the service part again we waited for a long time to get the bill so we could be on our way. We'd definitely be back next time we're in town but honestly the service is something that needs to be addressed because everything else was up to par.

My friends and I visited on 9/11 and had a good time. Your bartender, Miracle, delivered great service and delicious drinks. The TVs had a diverse selection and the music was fun.

We started out with splitting two appetizers, the veggie roll & the wild Chili popper. I love how crispy the poppers were but be careful that cheese is really hot inside. My daughter had the Banh Mi and I had a Reuben sandwich, we both enjoyed our food and the service. We were taken care of by Alex who was so patient with us! There is seating both inside & out front, not too many people but it was a week day around 5:46PM. It's a definite go to if you're in the DC area!

I came here for a happy hour on a weeknight. It was pretty busy inside but it was easy to get a table. The service was little slow. I ordered the Froggy Bottom Amber ale. It was only $5 but it was pretty flat. I was going to say something but I didn't want to make a fuss, and I didn't want to be waiting again for just a beer. This is a convenient place for a happy hour. And the environment is spacious and not too loud. Overall it was a fine experience.

Pho was good. Pizza was eh. Service is great. Ambiance is casual-- good to go with friends, especially since the tequila shot prices are reasonable.

Ok on the 4 dollar scale this is a 2 dollar sign location. The food is really more of a basic one dollar food, the location and ambiance is nice enough. The service was friendly and fast. The deep fryer wings were barely basic. The wild poppers are from a bag the same you can get from Sonic for $4. The nachos were fully loaded not a single chip without the goods on it! But the ingredients were again basic but good! The cost of this meal in downtown DC was Very reasonable, for a good cheep basic meal, I'd do it again!

Stopped in on a cold rainy day and what a treat. Affordable drinks and food! Had a chicken salad sandwich that was perfect and the fries so good. Was empty on a Saturday afternoon - you are missing out- give it a try! A good pub experience!
