Today is National Fast Food Day, but that doesn’t mean you have to go to McDonald’s. In honor of the occasion, here are 31 of our favorite, non-corporate restaurants with fast (but still delicious) food.
CAPITOL HILL/FIRST HILL
1. Big Mario’s
Big Mario’s pizza is good: The crust is thin but not floppy, except at the very tip; the sauce is almost salty, almost sweet, and sparingly applied.
2. Freddy Junior’s
Get great mini-burgers (with pickles made in-house) for super cheap at this no-frills burger place on Broadway.
3. George’s Sausage & Delicatessen
In a city that’s shy on the flavors of Central Europe, George’s Polish shop delivers on that meaty, smoky feel that every deli should have.
