doi moi Restaurant Review

For foodies, the best perches in the house are those skirting the open kitchen, where onlookers can get a first-hand view of line cooks and prep staff putting it all together. It’s hard to decide what to order since the menu is rather lengthy, but...

I am an old man (Get off my lawn!") I know that. My daughter wanted me to experience the ambiance of 14th street in DC when I was last there, and at the end of that perambulation we stopped to eat at Doi Moi. For...

We love Doi Moi! It’s a neighborhood restaurant for us, so we’ve been quite a few times. The food is always terrific, and tonight was no exception. I had the coconut salmon, which was delicious. My husband had the whole fried snapper and really enjoyed...

My daughter, her boyfriend, another friend and I came for a Saturday night dinner. They serve wonderful dishes “tapas” style, so it’s possible to savor many choices as small plates. The roasted Brussels sprouts are a standout, as are the marinated beef jerky and barbecued...
