"There’s no denying that the Anacostia Busboys is one of the major players in the area. The American restaurant is known for its diverse menu and community events, and the Anacostia spot is no different. There’s often an after-work crowd here for Happy Hour, which runs Monday-Friday from 4-7pm, and families grabbing dinner. It’s a great place to go if you’re eating with vegetarians or vegans since there are a lot of options (we’re partial to the falafel sandwich smothered in hummus and tahini sauce and layered with fresh vegetables)." - Tristiana Hinton, Omnia Saed
