Was seated immediately as a solo diner. Place was packed on a Monday night. Started with a "cup" of matoh ball soup. More like your average large bowl. Clearly homemade and lots of chicken. Burger was substantial and cooked to order. My server was highly competent. Other tables weren't so lucky (OK I like to eavesdrop when I'm eating alone on an out of town trip). Overall, a very positive experience. Just got back from dinner at Eli’s. Was seated immediately as a solo diner. Place was packed on a Monday night. Started with a “cup” of matoh ball soup.

Went Wednesday, and the burger was great. Deli a little weak, but could've just been mine. They're clearly brand new -- and have lots to improve -- but it's comfortable enough, and the food's good, and well-priced enough, that they'll be around long enough to work the kinks out.

The Burgers are FANTASTIC! I had the california burger and my husband had the reuben burger. THey were thick, juicy and delicious. fries were good, too. Bar is still not up and running. sodas are out of a can, not fountain style. fish dishes are on the menu but not yet available--I think they have to cook separate from meat, and the equipment isn't up yet. it is really close to dupont, we walked there after dinner for a little stretch and it made for a really pleasant evening.

A separate door to the street will let patrons into the deli/carryout area, which is still under renovation. Management expects that side of the place to open in a few weeks. I haven't had a burger yet, but have heard good things about them. The deli is -- at least mostly -- homemade on site, and tastes like it. I am looking forward to plenty of visits to Eli's, since it's about halfway on my commute-by-foot. One other note: while the bar physically exists, Eli's management does not expect to be able to obtain a liquor license for a number of months yet, due to the DC liquor licensing process.
