Very tasty spot for breakfast that was just around the corner of our hotel. Good selection of breakfast foods and toppings to bulk up your meal. Very fast service and everything is made fresh. The oatmeal raisin cookie was also really tasty and I should have bought another one.

I regularly stop into the Atrium Cafe when I’m looking for a great sandwich in the Federal Center SW area. They don’t skimp on the portions and they move fast with smiles on their faces! In the photo I had a carved roast beef sandwich on rye with lettuce, tomato, onions, mayo, and provolone cheese! - chef’s kiss

One of the best delis I’ve visited. They roast their meats in house, which makes a HUGE difference; no processed deli meats. Great Korean specials, fresh salads and terrific breakfast options. Total hole in the wall and well worth finding it. Way better than anything in the L’enfant Plaza food court. Close to L’enfant and Federal Center SW metros. Enter from School Street.

I had heard of a hole in the wall restaurant that shaved the meat when you ordered and had a hard time believing the deliciousness and portions. The kid I took even complained about "too much meat" but I think he's out of his mind. This should ve the place you should grab a quick bite if ever you are in the area.

We had the egg sandwich and Korean bbq beef wrap, and they are so goooodddd!!!! The food might look simple but they are super fresh and delicious , especially our bbq beef was made-to-order! There are many options for topping, cheese and bread to choose from, and the counter ladies were very friendly and give us great recommendations! The way the sandwich was wrapped also make it very easy to eat, without making a mess. So glad we found this hole-in-a-wall place when walking around town.

This apparently simple cafe gave the best BLT sandwich ever. Idk how that's possible, it's hard to screw up a BLT but it's also hard to make it that much better. On top of that, their mocha is excellent and with reasonable prices for DC, especially so close to the main attractions in the city. Service is polite, pretty standard and everything looks clean and nice. Come here instead of Starbucks, it's totally worth it.
