The Heights Food Hall

I want to like this place but the quality of food and service has gone down since opening. I went there on a Sunday and almost every person at each food stall was just staring down at their phones. I got the burger there and it looked nothing like the photos online and it was as average as it could get. I hope someone from the heights reads this and makes some improvements, including having different restaurants/food stalls there.

Micro Review -weekday quick lunch - the Sky Lantern concept had a great salad. I got it without the mayo (customize option). -the Heights Food Hall has such a variety and most tables were open (shockingly for a Wednesday at noon in busy shopping area). -while there are wait staff, you can easily get your own water; bus your own dishes; and get utensils or condiments if you're in a hurry. -delicious and lovely ambiance.

The Heights Food Hall is the latest addition to Shops at Wisconsin Place. Originally, it was supposed to open up in late 2022. However, it finally opened up in December of 2023.Was the wait worth it? Meh! Honestly? This place gives me food court in the mall vibes. Decor? Basic. No bells and whistles whatsoever. Mind you, several news outlets hyped this place up as being "upscale." I beg to differ. Anyhoo, The Heights Food Hall has only eight food stalls. Nonetheless, you can still get your eat on. Vendors here offer everything from sushi to beef shawarma to Texas barbecue. Didn't see many vegetarian options...a no-go for me. On top of that, the dining area near the food stalls seemed a little cramped.Other alternatives? The Heights Food Hall has a full-service restaurant (Urbano) that boasts tasty Mexican eats. Want to get your drink on? There's a speakeasy (Turncoat) that has a hidden entrance. A full-service bar (The Heights Bar) is located at the front entrance of the food hall.FYI: The Heights Food Hall is located just steps away from the Friendship Heights Metro Station.

We've been eagerly awaiting the opening of this food hall, and it did not disappoint. Great food options, fun and stylish decor, and super convenient. I especially loved being able to order by QR code from the table -- lunch orders from five different places to accommodate my picky kids, delivered swiftly to our table, and all on one bill! I'm sold. DC Dosa and Doki Doki are parental favorites - the cold sesame noodles are amazing. But the kids always want gyoza from Sky Lantern, a side of mac n cheese from Supreme BBQ, and mango bubble tea from Aunteaboba. No meal ends without ice cream, and the Mimi's owner was especially sweet and so generous to the kids with sample tastes. We will certainly be back to try the other places and the anchor restaurant. The tables can get crowded quickly at peak times, but luckily there's patio seating that will come in handy for the summer. The bathrooms were surprisingly small and couldn't accommodate a changing table, but it's otherwise family friendly. It's also not a cheap meal, but it's a nicer place with great service so I rather expected it. Looking forward to our next visit!

The Heights food hall concept is a nice addition to the area. I ate at Saoco Cuban Eats which is a premier Cuban restaurant! I've had great dining experiences in Cuba and this food is amazing. The staff are friendly and the atmosphere was customer service centered. Treat yourself!

This is a brand new trendy foodcourt in the Friendship Heights neighborhood, opened on Dec 11, less than a month ago. It's located right above Whole Foods in the former PF Chang space. There is a full service restaurant, two bars and over half dozen food stalls. Seating seems to be a bit tight and limited as the indoor space is not very big and overall a bit dark - come warmer weather things'll be better as there are a lot more tables outdoors on the upper level patio. Today we tried Saoco Cuban Eats and Sky Lanterns. The Cuban sandwich was quite tasty and the spring rolls and fried dumplings at Sky Lanterns pretty good as well. Altogether for one Sandwich, 2 apps and one drink it came to about $40, not cheap as food courts go. There is wifi but they don't seem to validate parking - for that you have to go to Whole Foods.

So excited for this food hall to finally be open!!! There is a fantastic mix of cuisine and a large bar to sit and enjoy a beverage after work. Went with two coworkers for cocktails at 6:00pm and they still have Happy Hour until 7:00pm! Kimberly was our waitress and she was excellent! I asked her to make me a surprise drink with tequila and she came up with a delicious drink that didn't take me long to suck down! I really hope this takes off and more young professionals come to hang out in the area. Doki Doki Sushi and Saoco Cuban Eats are Five Stars! Looking to make this a new spot during the week :)

Perfect for the family. Quick friendly service. Tasty red curry and poke. Burger on the table next to us looked yummy. Mimi's for dessert is a must. Such care and attention to craft, green tea was great.

This review is directed towards AunTea Boba. I ordered a tea with brown sugar boba. The boba tasted like jelly, definitely not boba. When I asked about it, the person who made the drink was pretty rude. As someone who drank boba tea growing up, I can assure you it's not boba. I then showed the boba to the owner of Mimi's soft serve and she agreed with me. She said she was going to make me a new one. She went over and checked the package, and told me that the boba seemed to be precooked in Taiwan and sat in sugar water. Not sure if that's the reason the consistency was way off. She was nice enough to offer me a refund, but I didn't take it. I was really looking forward to a bubble tea place in our neighborhood, but I was absolutely disappointed. 0 star for AunTea Boba, 5 stars for Mimi's soft serve.

We walked through the new Food Hall on our way to and from dinner at Urbano. We checked out all of the menus and are psyched to go back to try them! We did get a taiyaki cone with matcha soft-serve ice cream from Mimi's that was great (and very photogenic)!There's a pretty large bar with seating at the front of the Hall. We're thinking about going back so that we can each get whatever genre of food we want and then sit at the bar to watch a game.
