Drinks

4.25

The display isn't fancy -- plastic cups all around -- but with a veritable rainbow of flavor options, nearly all is forgiven.

Food

3.15

Top-tier brunch classics like steak and eggs and crab cake benedicts make this a solid, if unspectacular, locale.

Service

2.79

Be prepared for a slow start, but once our purpose was amply demonstrated, bottles flowed freely, if sharply cut off at the two-hour mark.

Ambiance

4.42

Few spots offer an Instagram wall quite like 801's flower dancer, and with a prime U Street intersection, there isn't much more you can ask for.

Nero Review

Nero

Dupont Circle

1.51

Nero might be a lovely wine bar, with self-dispensing wine machines that certainly piqued our interest, but we wonder if they forgot they're also a restaurant.

Balos Estiatorio Review

Balos Estiatorio

Dupont Circle

3.37

The bellinis and mimosas have a respectably small tinge, and we appreciate the straight champagne option, but it's really the espresso martinis — six different options, freshly made at a cart wheeled over to your table — that salvage the price.

Han Palace Review

Han Palace

Georgetown

3.11

Han Palace offers a full dim-sum experience; we found Option A quite filling at $38 a person, but if you're feeling particularly extravagant, you can upgrade to Option B and get Peking Duck for brunch.

We're like the postmen. We brunch in rain, sleet, or snow
