4.4 / 5.0(3,517 reviews)

Chose to come to Succotash for an early dinner on a Saturday night. Got a reservation but it likely wasn’t needed between 4-5pm. Service was great and the food was amazing! Chicken and waffles very good. The fried chicken alone was likely the best fried chicken I’ve ever had. It was super crisp yet also tender and flavorful. Pimento cheese burger and fries was also very good. Nice grilled flavor in the beef. Fries were well cooked and the spicy ketchup was nice. Got a side of the old bay macncheese. Super cheesy and I would highly recommend. Also tried the Cactus Rose and Pandan Dew. Both were tasty. Pandan was a unique flavor. I went last weekend on 8/9/25 with just me and my sister. The restaurant is in a great location, and the interior is lovely. My sister and I are big Chef Edward Lee fans Disclaimer: went here for Mother’s Day and I totally forgot to write my review so this is slightly late! Nonetheless this place deserves a great review! The restaurant is gorgeous from the moment you walk in, the high ceiling and elegant decor draws you in. You can get a breathtaking view from upstairs over the balcony. This place is great for those celebrating a special occasion. The service was excellent from the moment we walked in. Granted we had a reservation so we got seated right away. The server came right away and without feeling rushed, provided an appropriate amount of for us to review the menu and decide. The drinks were excellent, very well balanced not too alcohol forward. the deviled eggs were so creamy and great pairing with the various toppings. The corn bread was also excellent! The honey paired great and it was not dry at all! I personally opted for the chicken sandwich and it was so big and overwhelming to eat but it was so juicy and the pimento cheese paired beautifully with the fried chicken!

After trying the national harbor location, we decided to try the downtown location because we really enjoyed our previous experience. Of course this time we were not disappointed also. I think the cornbread we had at the national harbor location was better, with more hot flavor. The chicken wings were perfect with Gochujang flavor. And surprisingly our favorite this time is the chocolate waffle. My friend said this was the best dessert he has had.

Ended up stopping by after visiting the American Art Museum and was pleasantly surprised by our meal here! It ended up being a late lunch (3:00) so the restaurant was not packed which allowed for a quiet, relaxing atmosphere. The host was friendly and waitress was quiet but sweet and informative. Banana pudding dessert was to die for and entrees were done tastefully and left us happy and satisfied!
