Good Stuff Eatery - Washington

They operate as a fast food chain but the burgers are like home made.

We'd been walking around all the monuments and started to get hungry when I remembered that guy that had been on Top Chef had opened a burger joint that I'd heard was good. So, I Googled it and quickly remembered the name of the chef, Spike, and learned that the restaurant was called the Good Stuff Eatery and that there was a location in Georgetown. The restaurant is one where you place your order at the counter and then get a buzzer when it's ready. There was seating outside and upstairs. We sat upstairs, and there were some TVs with sports on. It wasn't high end dining, but it was a nice crowd, the tables were clean and orderly and aside from being a bit warm, we had no problem finding a comfortable place to sit even though it was quite busy in the line and I was afraid we wouldn't find a seat. I had a basic cheeseburger cooked to well done as I like it and I didn't get the special sauce as they said it was mayo based. Nonetheless, my burger was really tasty and the toppings and the bun were fresh and delicious. The fries were fantastic. There's nothing sadder than really bad fries with a good burger, but the fries here were fresh, crispy, and absolutely perfect. Though it was a simple order of a burger and fries, I really enjoyed my meal and would definitely eat there again if I am in DC again or in one of the other cities where Spike has other locations. It's really cool to see that he has been so successful after having watched him on the Top Chef show!

Great little burger joint. When you need good food after the movie, this is the place.

I highly recommend Good Stuff Eatery, but realize that this is a higher end burger place. The prices are not low, but the food is great similar to Five Guys pricing. I would recommend The Lunch Bag (pictured) if you want burger, fries, and a drink. Its not a fancy burger, but the combo for the price is one of the best deals. One other very nice offering is the variety of sauces available for your burger and fries that go beyond the basic ketchup and mustard. They have mayo, sriracha, chipotle, horseradish, old bay, and mango. If you 're in one of the areas that has a Good Stuff Eatery I 'd definitely take a look.

Food was amazing and great atmosphere took a while for the food to get out and very busy but overall a great experience
