• Some people (like me) hate it, some people love it

I went here once when I first moved to the area, and I was very confused that this is popular. It's the worst of all worlds: food not so great, a little too pricey for my cheap eats sensibilities, self-important, and very crowded: you'll likely have to wait unless you got a reservation. And it's not exactly a gold star in the vegan options department. Many restaurants in the area do just as well or better. The one good thing about it is the location near a lot of touristy things like the White House. But seriously tourist, you can do better. Washington Post gave it zero stars, and I'm saving this review for the next time a friend wants to go there. https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/food/founding-farmers-review-where-the-biggest-temptation-is-to-leave/2016/06/01/76b2c844-204e-11e6-9e7f-57890b612299_story.html Look, I will freely admit it: I am a hater. I just don't get why anyone goes here, let alone why it's always packed. Other people LOVE LOVE LOVE it as the comments on facebook attest: https://www.facebook.com/foundingfarmers/posts/10154274541031602 But if I can prevent one like-minded tourist from wasting one of their meals in DC on this place, then writing this review is worth it. DC has great vegan food, go enjoy it elsewhere.
