Harry's Fine Foods

"Joining the ranks of awesome restaurants in quiet pockets of the neighborhood is Harry’s Fine Foods, a little corner spot that reminds us of a fancy parlor and a general store combined. This place just has the Feel Good Factor™, and it also happens to have very good negronis. Food ranges from pasta to crudo to one of our favorite cheeseburgers in the city. You would do well to get that burger, plus crispy herbed french fries with green “601” sauce." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley

"Capitol Hill is always a great area for catching up with friends, since there are so many options to choose from. When you want a quietish place you can get into easily, try Harry’s Fine Foods. The inside feels like an old-fashioned parlor crossed with a general store, and the food ranges from lasagna to grilled cheese to crudo to a f*cking great burger (with equally great fries). Aside from some $24 short ribs, the most expensive dish here is 17 bucks. Oh, and the negroni situation is fantastic." - aimee rizzo

"Harry’s serves a textbook cheeseburger. It looks like an emoji stacked with the usual suspects, and the bun is toasted just right. And somehow, the not-so-compact texture of the patty makes us feel like we’re eating an old-school burger from a ’50s diner. We like it best with a negroni on the side. " - Aimee Rizzo

"Harry’s, a laid-back Capitol Hill spot, has a compelling all-season patio, and the ever-changing new American menu comprises thoughtfully executed brunch and dinner classics. At brunch, look out for sweet potato latkes, cornmeal pancakes, and excellent bloody mary twist Harry’s Mary with house pickles; dinner includes treats like chicory Caesar with a soft egg and steak frites with bone marrow brandy butter." - Meg van Huygen, Mark Van Streefkerk, Jade Yamazaki Stewart, Adam H. Callaghan

"Harry’s Fine Foods is a small neighborhood spot on a residential stretch of Bellevue Ave., and it’s kind of like a cross between a corner market and your aunt’s fancy parlor room where you weren’t allowed to touch anything. (There aren’t so many rules here.) Though the menu is short, there’s a good range of dishes - from sandwiches to crudo to lasagna to braised short ribs. The pastry chef might even come out of the kitchen to casually chat about the desserts he prepared that day. For a quiet solo meal, sit at the bar with a seasonal negroni, plus the cheeseburger and delicious french fries with crispy herbs, a tangy green “601 sauce,” and pecorino cheese." - aimee rizzo
