Pen Quarter

The food was horrible and nasty not like the original Z Burger, but the inside was nice.

(adding an update, re: Jason Hilliard's 1-star review) so I live nearby... there's no freakin' way that Jason's story is from this restaurant. Literally the place is always empty right now b/c of COVID. How could he have "waited 2 hours" without getting noticed? ...and the food is cheap, it's a basic burger joint. What is this dude even talking about? His rude and unrealistic 1-star review is gonna hurt a brand new local business. (Original Review) Great local small business chain, just three or four locations in DC. Great and affordable burgers, fries, breakfast, shakes, etc. Just met the owner/manager who said she is also opening a coffee shop and study space in the refinished basement lower level. Place looks great with the new decor. Tourists and Locals alike should come thru and grab a burger. It's right next to the Archives/Navy-Memorial metro stop and all the adjacent museums.

Food was amazing. Great prices for such an area. Employees were very nice and the owner came out and thanked us for coming too! The vibes outside were also immaculate, great views while eating great food!
