Best Food Delivery/Pick-Up Restaurants in Woodley Park

Woodley Park’s curved streets, gentle slopes, and proximity to Rock Creek Park and the Smithsonian National Zoo give it a more laid-back vibe than many Washington, D.C. neighborhoods. Coronavirus hasn’t changed this.

There’s another perk for residents at our apartment rentals in Woodley Park, Washington DC. Several restaurants along Connecticut Avenue and other enclaves have delivery and pick-up services, so you can still cherish the culinary treats to be had here. If you’re looking for a great go-to restaurant in the area, and stay safe, here are our top picks:

Mayahuel Cocina Mexicana

From small taco plates to full entrees, this modern Mexican restaurant offers classic cuisine with unique interpretations. It is now open for dinner only, but you can still enjoy beef tongue tacos, mussels with chorizo, and a Mexi-burguesa, which is an 8-ounce angus beef patty on a brioche bun with many flavorful touches. A diverse drink menu covers margaritas, sangria, cocktails, wine, and draft beer. View Mayahuel Cocina Mexicana website.

District Kitchen

Daily specials are posted all week long. Half and full portions are available, as is a three-course fixed-price menu. Owner and Executive Chef Miguel Pizarroso enjoyed cooking at a young age and pursued higher education in the field after working at the 41st Super Bowl in Miami, FL and the Centennial Olympic Games in Atlanta, GA. His knack for making authentic cultural dishes grew while working at Spanish and Italian restaurants in Europe. View District Kitchen website.
