Looking for good eats in a prime location in the center of DC?

Whether you need an unpretentious spot in the center of the city to dine or meet up for Happy Hour or you’ve been scoping out a place to take your family to eat while downtown shopping and enjoying holiday markets and lights, the new Brickstones Kitchen and Bar in the Embassy Suites by Hilton Washington D.C. Convention Center has you covered.

What used to be a Finn & Porter adjacent to this downtown hotel is now an approachable (and more affordable) family-friendly option.

BKB’s food menu has just what you need without an overwhelming array of crazy options. There are plenty of interesting salads, tempting flatbreads and pizzas, sandwiches, and shareable plates, too. A trio of main entrees keeps the major decisions limited –and that’s a good thing! — with all being simply delicious.

And save room for dessert! That chocolate mouse jar is a chocolate lover’s dream!
