Lunch at Matchbox Barracks Row

Just some quick shots from a little holiday lunch with friends and co-workers. Matchbox is quickly becoming our go-to restaurant for lunch excursions and it’s well-earned. I was surprised that they hadn’t announced the day’s specials on twitter yet, but when we got there the server told us the special entree was a crab and mushroom mac & cheese–SOLD!

We also shared their shrimp and grits starter which was yummy, their grits were appropriately seasoned and creamy. I might stop back by for brunch if they had a full entree size of the dish. Unfortunately the Circulator doesn’t run past there from Union Station or Navy Yard on evenings or weekends, but it’s just a short walk away from Eastern Market metro. So far it’s been 100% for deliciousness and service has always been great.
