SEI Review

SEI

Penn Quarter, Chinatown

444 7th St NW, Washington, DC

Drinks

Aperol spritzes are the ideal mimosa substitute, and for only $15, they're well worth the change of pace.

Food

They toss an egg over a few options because, you know, brunch, but you're better off forgetting about all that and embracing the bento boxes, bibimbaps, and other bowls they do best.

Service

1.02

The bottomless options feels tacked on as an afterthought, particularly if you try to ask for a refill.

Ambiance

1.01

SEI's probably a lovely place to grab a few happy hour drinks, or a few of those "small plates" the kids are into these days, but for brunch, it's just empty and sad.

Balos Estiatorio Review

Balos Estiatorio

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

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
