Domku in the press: What they’re saying…

THE WASHINGTON BLADE

(August 05) “The atmosphere…is studied casual. The music soothing and eclectic, ranging from soft bossa nova to opera.”

WASHINGTON TIMES

(April 06) “Domku is not just a place for drinkers; the food is solid and unusual, if not fancy”

“The word ‘eclectic’ fits, but it is overused. So we’ll say dining at Domku is fun, tasty and unpredictable, mostly in a great way.”

DC STYLE

(Spring 06) “Domku…is a shining evidence that good food and drink happen outside of Georgetown.”

DC NORTH

“Domku’s service is a bit casual and definitely quirky, if always friendly and polite.”

NEW YORK TIMES Dining Section

WASHINGTON CITY PAPER

(June 05) “And the cooking, anomalous as it is in this city, rises above merely being a curiosity.”

“…one of the most fascinating spots in town.”

(April 08) “The food is authentic and interesting, the ambience funky and eclectic”…”Excellent service, friendly staff, and a gem on Upshur Street.”

(April 08) Best of DC 2008: Best Decor

“Nothing about Domku feels like D.C., and that’s a good thing.”

(October 2010) Young & Hungry

“My mother always used to tell me that good things come to those who wait. At Domku, this rings true. My Swedish meatballs were absolutely scrumptious, but it was the attention to detail in the mashed potatoes that really made the dish…Patience is a virtue, and if you got it, head on over to Domku. There is nowhere else in Washington that offers such an interesting take on Eastern European and Scandinavian cuisines.”
