Fantastic, breakfast, lunch, happy hour or dinner they’ve got you covered. The menu is on point and the service is top notch.
Fantastic food, service, and super chic but approachable. Wonderful esoteric wine list and creative craft cocktails with unique ingredients- including squid ink!
Hanger steak was fabulous! A great addition to H street!
My favorite restaurant on H. The staff is friendly and the food is fresh from scratch. There's always something interesting on the menu here. A welcome addition to the neighborhood.
This place is most awesome, great food, great atmosphere, great people, great service!
Great service, quality drinks, phenomenal food, 1st class experience, and awesome music at a restaurant!
Great time was hAd by myself. The whole staff is also gorgeous 👌🏽
Fantastic place wth a wonderful owner, bartender and servers! We will be back! PS - if you are a biker, most of the staff ride bicycles. Was nice to commiserate. Thanks for a good time!

Attended a private party upstairs at Sospeso......... Enjoyed a few creative Mediterranean small bites and an exquisite Italian Primivito red wine. Looking forward to a return visit to this restaurant!
Great new neighborhood haunt, and owned by Trinidad residents. Perfect for a morning coffee or a drink after work.
Excellent. Breakfast, coffee, brunch, lunch, dinner or drinks. Can't go wrong.
The food was amazing and so was the environment! If you are in H st, you should be in Sospeso.
Salty fritters and moussaka!
Friendly staff, excellent service.

You can definitely tell that they make everything fresh from scratch and it's absolutely amazing!
The fingerling potatoes and linguine carbonara were delicious!
I loved the soup and fresh salad, perfect hummus. Thanks Chef Lauren!
i really loved this place. the food was tasty and reasonably priced. and drinks were so tasty. will definitely repeat again.
The ambiance was good facing the road. Place runs on vermouth cocktails. The price of cocktails is high for the value and the quantity. Cauliflower fry is the best dish from what we had. We had lamb pasta and chicken kabobs. Overall good experience. Waiters were great!
Very chill spot. Since the place is not that big, you get quality customer service. We ordered hot chocolates, ice coffees and baklavas…. And they were all rest good. This place definitely has their own twist. They also have a full menu to include happy hour.
We stopped in before a show at Atlas Arts across the street. The service was top notch. We asked first if we'd have time for dinner before our show and they said we did but also demonstrated cognizance of our timing. The food was excellent. I'm vegetarian but my friend is not, so we got a whole range of food and it was all great. I will definitely come back again.
(The only "negative" is that there isn't much soft seating and a lot of hard surfaces so would be noisy when full. Lucky for us, dining early, there was only one other table and though they were loud, it wasn't oppressively so.)
Great cocktail selection of cocktails, some seldom seen on menus. Food was excellent we tried many items from the menu, and they were very helpful with simplifying items for our kids. Thanks for a great dinner!
Not to familiar with the Area, but went after Van gough Experience. This was one of those hidden gems! Wonderful staff and chef brought food out himself! High quality food and service! If you’re looking for an authentic Mediterranean experience, go here! Loved it!
I give it five stars because our waiter was phenomenal, I really wish I got his name. Our service was excellent. The food was really good as well. All the greens were especially fresh. I liked the vibes and atmosphere of this place is great. They have a balcony you can go out on and have drinks too. They have cool window seats down on the first floor where you feel to be sitting right on H street.
One of the best sandwiches I have ever had! The porchetta was incredible with great balance! Also the house made vermouths are absolutely perfect!
We had a good time here. We went her for brunch. The staffs were friendly and welcoming. No loud music which is great.
The food was delicious and fresh. But the Turkish breakfast was a little bit too scattered. I wish I had more koftes with less other things.
My family and I had a fantastic meal to celebrate the holidays together at Sospeso. I requested a “group dining” experience using the events form on Sospeso’s website. Through this process, I was able to work with Mike (the owner) to organize a wonderful three course meal for my family, with wine and cocktail pairings. It was a tremendous hit. The meal opened with a house-made vermouth and champagne cocktail, and we did spreads (hummus, labneh, baba ghanoush, olives). Then we had half pours of white and red wines with our entrees. The red was my family’s favorite — it was an incredible 2013 Nebbiolo that Mike and the staff had opened ahead of time to let it breathe. The evening concluded with a brandy cocktail and dessert.
In sum, the food was delicious, the wine and cocktail pairings were dynamite and thoughtful, and the service was also very attentive. I also loved that they made nice print-outs of our menu — a nice keepsake for a memorable meal with family.
Amazing meal, with lovely service and cool vibes! The penne al sugo was phenomenal!!!
Terrific service & 4/5 food so far. Great self ordering system. I wish I discovered this place earlier because I am totally in love with Turkish shakshuka! Breakfast is served til 3 pm Friday through Sunday. Area has scarce parking so if you’re driving plan another 10-20 min just to find parking.
This is an amazing place! Awesome combination of beautiful ingredients will make your taste buds explode. Absolutely a place for gournants seeking new culinary experiences. Comfortable ambiance and outstanding service.
Just had a great meal at Sospeso. The food was fresh and distinct. Had a few mezze items and they were all good. Drinks were great as well. Fardi was a lovely server. He was very responsive to everything we needed and gave good recommendations too. We will be back!
Drinks were great, food was tasty. I loved the burrata especially (the octopus was good but i always feel guilty eating the smart buggers). Kudos to the bartenders who put up with the dude I was on an awful first date with lolllll. Also for not laughing when he asked for a quesadilla. 10/10 will just go by myself next time.
Very nice and quiet place. I like the atmosphere and service. I’m not familiar with Turkish food but my octopus was burnt and bread also had black marks.
Authentic Mediterranean dishes expertly prepared. Friendly and attentive staff. Gourmet coffees to round things out.
Excellent experience. The server was polite and our drinks kept coming. I had the Aslan khavesi and my husband had bottomless mimosas. We had delicious Herb Omelettes and the Borek was amazing as well. Five stars! I recommend for sure.
