Drinks

4.15

You can choose among five flavors — peach, cranberry, grapefruit and pineapple complement the usual orange — and with the champagne and juices served separately, your mimosas are as strong (or weak) as you like.

Food

4.08

Depending on your hunger and/or proximity to a fridge to deposit leftovers, the $35 food bundle's a great deal, and even barring that, finishing a sub-$20 pizza's a challenge, too.

Service

3.76

Our server handled our questions about Matchbox's various bundle options with aplomb, and was graciously willing to continue the juice portion of mimosa service for a compatriot who'd reached their limit on champagne.

Ambiance

2.45

Penn Quarter views are always a bit limited by the size of the neighboring buildings, but the cozy patio at least opens out upon an entertaining people-watching segment of E Street, and you can always head inside for a more industrial, if unremarkable, vibe.

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.

Baby Shank Review

Baby Shank

U Street

2.94

It's a good thing the $30 bottomless deal comes with the freedom to pour your own champagne and multiple flavors, because we're 99 percent sure the "orange juice" was SunnyD.

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