This market is a jewel of the neighborhood. A five minute walk from the house around Galludet University. You'll find a number of fast casual restaurants, bars, and coffee shops here for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It gets crowded on the weekends, so go early.

Pretty decent BBQ. I'm a fan of the brisket and I always get the smoked whitefish appetizer. They also have a rooftop deck with lounge chairs. Ivy City is a newly developing area of DC. Be mindful of your surroundings at night.

Belgian style restaurant and bar. If you've got a hankering for mussels - this is the place to go. Can be quite popular, so either make an opentable reservation a few hours in advance or put your name in and grab a drink somewhere along h street while you wait.
