Beefsteak - Washington

I was super excited about trying this vegetarian place on my trip to DC and I was not disappointed! My friend and I got the Little Curry Warm Rice Bowl and it was loaded with veggies and super delicious! I love this concept of quick casual yummy vegetarian food and I hope that Jose Andres expands it to San Francisco!

Who knew vegetables could be so exciting? Beefsteak offers an amazing assortment of fresh, flavorful, and healthy food in a fun, rustic environment. The menu is fairly extensive, with a diverse mix of vegetables, sauces, and toppings (yes, they even have chicken sausage for the obligate carnivores out there), and the staff is friendly and helpful. The most interesting part of the meal by far is the immersion hot water machine (think french fry fryer, but greener) when I saw my veggies descending into a boiling vat of water I expected the worst, but they came out well seasoned and still surprisingly firm. Don't forget to grab a homemade fruit and veggie juice mix on the way out!

Heaven for healthy eating! Mostly vegetarian , some options to add chicken , but plenty of protein options. Incredibly delicious, steamed veggies that are crispy , grains and the best toppings I had ever tasted and I am a picky eater. So many options too. It's beyond reasonable for the quality and quantity although I never go for quantity as a an asset . Friendly service and also house made Apple- cucumber- kale drink is so tasty as I was hesitant to try. Been a regular here and recommending it to all my friends! Love the fact that they are committed to recycling and this is a brainchild by the famous chef José Andrés !

First time to try José Andrés’ mostly plant-based fast casual restaurant. We ordered a lentil curry bowl and the “Frida Kale-o” which is black beans and rice with steamed kale and sweet potatoes. Delicious. I also got the “Beetsteak Burger” with a big slab of golden beet, pickled and topped with tomato, pickled red onion, and sprouts on brioche. Don’t skip the gazpacho which is some of the best I’ve had.

Very good! I love the aesthetic and how the name “Beefsteak” contradicts what they actually serve! I can’t wait to eat here next time! The Beafsteak burger and Eden are recommended
