The Block Foodhall & Bar

Mark Parker

Nice but small if you come when it is busy it is hard to find seats. There are 4 shops Inside 3 food and 1 dessert and Boba tea spot. We were having a good time until the bartender showed up and started blasting music from behind the bar making it hard to hold a conversation. I would go back but maybe sit outside where it's quiet.

A quick look at the place reveals why it may so popular. They have their atmosphere down. I balked a bit at the steeper prices, but I was told the Block was renown for its ice cream. At $7 for 2 scoops of macha, I was expecting some justification for its price tag. Was disappointing when I got a fusion with Oreos inside. I get that compromise is how ice cream shops stay afloat when pure flavors aren't in demand, but this is the DC area. If a classic flavor like macha ain't broke, why ruin it? The boba was fragrant, but I couldn't justify paying 50 - 100% more than at a mom n pop. This is a trendy venue, but know that the price tag is for the experience rather than for its goods.

Very expensive drinks. I paid $33 for a Jameson and coke.

I ordered tofu and it was fried with burnt oil and you can taste it. Cheap quality food and very unhealthy.
