The facelift provided to this place from the former Zengo layout to current is amazing. The flavors in the food was perfect. The crabcake had a hint of spice, that gave them a little kick. If you are a person like myself that has to be visually drawn in by food before you can eat it, then this place is for you. The plates were well plated. The crabcakes were a little smaller than expected compared to other places in the area that are about on the same scale. However, I was provided with an additional crabcake. The pickles on the plate tasted as if they were done in house and were perfectly flavored. The service was very attentive and amazing across the board. The menu was a little displacing but had something for everyone and I appreciated the inclusiveness of it. If you are looking for a location that is stunning to the eye, good energy vibe, and great service. At the end the check came fast and the prices were very reasonable. This is a highly recommended place! I will be back to try the happy hour with my team soon.

Came here recently for some pre game Wizards food and drinks. The happy hour specials are no joke. Priced very reasonably in the DC area especially in Chinatown. My friends and I had the arugula with mushroom flatbread, tuna poke nachos, margherita pizza and some beers on tap. The flatbreads are delicious and they have a nice variety for all flavor profiles. This place is packed from 5-7 PM so do expect it to be a crammed space by the main bar. I'm a fan of the Circa chain and have been to 2 other locations. Glad this one has great specials because I'll definitely be back to try their brunch menu

By far one of the best restaurants in DC. My blackened salmon was excellent not dry and cooked to perfection along with the cauliflower flower mashed potatoes and the brussels sprouts with blue cheese. To die for! Going back to try something new.

Really good food. The Bruscetta was amazing. We had Bruscetta, Crab Cakes, a Dark Chocolate Tort and some chicken. The fries with the crab cakes were literally perfect. Just enough salt, loud crispy outside with a soft inside. If I'm being honest, they were better than the crab cakes themselves (which were also good and very light). The chicken was optimally juicy. The tort was good. The Bruscetta was the best part of the meal though. That bread was also perfect. The oil and cheese was super delicious and we'll definetely be getting that same Bruscetta when we come back. I wish I could just order 3 of the Bruscetta and call that a meal. Wait staff is nice. We did come on a Sunday when it wasn't busy though. Décor is top notch. Music was just a tinsy bit too loud for me, but my girlfriend thinks it was just fine. Totally recommend.

Came to CIRCA for happy hour on a Thursday, and they have these delicious Bulgogi Lettuce Wraps for $2 each! They also have other happy hour deals, but I only ordered the lettuce wraps. The good: The Bulgogi Lettuce Wrap was delicious! It contains marainted short rib, bibb lettuce, sticky rice, kimchi aioli, chopped peanuts, and micro cilantro. The sauce was creamy, and I enjoyed the savory beef, and all the ingredients well really well together! Will definitely come back to order more. The bad: The server should have been a bit more clear because he said the whole dish was $2, and not $2 each. Even though the deal sounded too good to be true, it is a Thursday only deal, so I just went along with it without asking for clarification until I received the bill. Overall, I really enjoyed the Bulgogi Lettuce Wrap, and I'll be returning just to eat more of this! Definitely worth it for $2 each!

The staff and servers turned this birthday brunch into a memorable event. I called ahead and explained my friend had food allergies and they had a special menu printed. She loved it and the food was very tasty.

Delicious meal. Loved the cocktail specials the chicken under a brick with brown butter sauce is a perfectly put together dish. Very good kids menu.

The food was pretty tasty, although maybe a little overpriced. I did not like the Bellini I ordered but that’s because I don’t really like the taste of alcohol and it was very alcoholic (so maybe that would be a plus for other people). The eggs Benedict I ordered was pretty good, except there were weird sharp shards in the crab cake that I attributed to coating or idk bone (??) that I didn’t super mind but still noticed. We also ordered dessert and it was kind of expensive but also very tasty! We ordered some kind of layered cake trifle thing and it was very good.

Perfect spot next to Chinatown metro, great value in food and happy hour. Highlights for me where the Bulgogi wraps, Sea scallops and my wife's roasted chicken .
