Best Modern Southern American Restaurants in Van Ness

Miss Toyas always provides a vibe that is unmatched!! The food was excellent, the drinks were strong, and the staff was attentive! Even the general manager was walking the floor checking on the tables and talking to everyone!

Like many I read the recent Washington Post review and was intrigued. We were going to a play at nearby Studio Theater and this really worked well. Wonderful experience! Loved the decor. The service was outstanding. It just felt very comfortable. Excellent draft beer choices and the food was great. I don’t think you can make a bad choice. Yes, the duck, and the Brussels sprouts. Dessert was great too. Can’t wait to try again.

Our server (Sanita, I think?) was extraordinary, polite, the right amount of attentiveness

Service was a little slow; think they were short staffed. But we had a nice time and the food was good.

I will definitely be going back again. The food was delicious. We ordered the lobster and crab scampi, crab cakes, lamb chops, mac ‘n cheese, kale caesar salad, and the corn bread (waiter recommendation). Everything… EVERYTHING… was delicious. Portion sizes were reasonable. The salad and the mac and cheese are shareable. Our waiter was on his A game and we didn’t want for anything. He was on too of it and knew the menu very well. The drinks were excellent. Can’t say enough how much I enjoyed this first time experience.
