It’s 8:30pm on a Friday night on H Street. You didn’t make a reservation at the Atlas Room. Toki Underground has a 3 hour wait. Sticky Rice has a similarly long wait. Cusbah has a wait and the line at H &pizza is long. You’re meeting up with a group of friends and need to eat soon. Where do you go? While there have recently been several high profile new openings on H Street, one place has been on H Street for a while but has flown somewhat under the radar. Yet the good food, the fun atmosphere, and the affordability of Khan’s Bar and Grill (1125 H Street, NE) deserve your attention.
Khan’s Bar and Grill on H Street
Khan’s, which opened last year, is on the same block as Cusbah, H &pizza, and Taylor Gourmet but on the opposite side of the street. Its end unit location allows the restaurant to have a large patio that is open during warm weather and makes for a very pleasant evening. The restaurant usually has tiki torches lit outside on nice evenings and enough tables so that there is never a wait. Inside Khan’s has a bar and several large TVs playing whatever sports games may be on at that particular time. The inside is made up of a variety of booths and tables (as well as the bar) that give diners a view of the TVs as well as the main attraction: the large grill where Khan’s chefs grill your dinner.
