Mount Vernon Triangle
Thai
$$
Sweet, sour, and spicy Thai flavors shine on this Mount Vernon Triangle dining room’s expansive menu. Start with chewy tapioca dumplings and shards of fried pumpkin for dipping in chili sauce. A crisp lotus-root salad with shrimp offers a refreshing counterpoint to rich curries, including the best khao soi in town. The centerpiece bar slings fun cocktails like the verdant Hanuman’s Leaf, made with pandan liqueur and ginger beer.
