Büna Coffeehouse

One of the best pizzas you’ll eat outside Italy. Arrive before or after the dinner rush, as it can get crowded. Also one of the best breakfasts in DC available Saturday and Sunday only. Arrive early to avoid the crowds.

This area has been developed into The Wharf: it's got tons of upscale restaurants and shops, it's located on the riverfront, and often hosts free outdoor concerts and other events. The restaurants are a bit pricey, so we like to stroll around for the views of the river and then go elsewhere to eat.

To be honest, Chinatown is not worth visiting unless you have your heart set on a specific restaurant. There are only a few authentic Chinese restaurants, the rest are big national chains or very expensive high-end places (think of Starbucks with their sign translated into Chinese characters). And there's ALWAYS a ton of people and foot traffic.
