    We had a GREAT time at Equinox. This is a very special restaurant. The entire menu is fabulous. I love their ability to cover both delicious omnivore and exquisite plant based options. All food is impeccable. There is something for everyone - and I’ve noticed people of all ages and much diversity. The staff is warm and inviting and the atmosphere is “elevated cozy”. LOVE this place. congrats on the one year in the new space. Support this DC treasure!

    I love that Equinox serves vegan brunch! I feel like the food quality is mediocre though - the flavors and textures were just a bit too bland

    We went there for my wife’s birthday. The staff was very friendly and explained the menu to us. We ordered only plant-based food there. The food was simply delicious!!! When we ordered dessert the waiter put a little candle on my wife’s dessert and there was a little sign made out of chocolate saying “Happy Birthday”. The waiter also song Happy Birthday so that only we could hear it. It made a perfect evening!

    The food was delicious and thoughtfully presented. The plant-based Sunday brunch menu was perfect. A flavorful 5-course meal that is vegan-friendly and satisfying.

    First time for the Sunday vegan brunch and it was amazing! Chef introduced himself, and the server explained every meal. The service and food were amazing! I left full and had to pack up the food I couldn’t finish. 10/10 and will be back again!
