Love, love, love this place. Best tofu I've had in DC, period. I always get the General Tso's crispy tofu and my husband always orders sesame tofu. There's not a lot of seating as most people seem to order takeout, but the service is great.

Thus is the best Asian food in the Logan circle area. What I love most is that you can ask fir a specific texture. I do their kung pow tofu and ask for extra crunchy and spicy. They add extra corn start here and make it work.

This is the best takeaway Chinese I’ve tried in the Logan circle neighborhood, but it’s not a dine in establishment as there are chairs blocking the restaurant off from the front door/pickup area. A somewhat standoffish woman took my payment and handed my bag over when I came in, but that’s fine as you can order online to minimize interactions. Portions are normal sized, spot felt clean, and the food was ready really quick after ordering. My favorite general tso chicken I’ve found so far, really nice sauce not too sweet.

I had an amazing experience today at 14th St Cafe Asian Bistro. I ordered the fried wings in spicy tangy sauce which blew me away, I would definitely want them hotter next time tho lol. My daughter had the wonton soup and kimchi, and we both had vegatable spring rolls...agreed they are the best in the city we've had. Fresh, tasty and the customer service was excellent. We will be back, thanks again!

Visiting DC from NYC. We know and love Asian cuisine and everything we ordered here was spot on. Steamed veggie dumplings, cold noodles with sesame, and General Tsos chicken were favorites. It was all a pleasant surprise because we ended up here by accident. We originally stopped at a larger older place across the street but left after reviewing its menu. To us, 14th St Cafe Asian Bistro has some of the Best Chinese food Logan Circle offers. If you haven’t ordered from them yet, try it and see what you think.

Amazing Chinese takeout. I don’t think there was dine-in but I ordered and paid over phone and picked it up in 10 minutes piping hot. Very vegan friendly; the mapo tofu (I made sure to ask for it vegan with no pork), dry fried Szechuan style green beans, and garlic eggplant were all authentic and flavorful and just oh so yummy!!! The mapo tofu could’ve been spicier. It didn’t numb my tongue much as it’s supposed to. They warned me it would be spicy on phone a couple of times and I assured them it was okay but maybe because I am white and sounded white they dialed it back hehe but it was scrumptious and great deal because the portions are huge and it came with tons of rice. The beautiful ladies working there are also very sweet. Can’t wait to eat my bountiful leftovers tomorrow!

Order was correct ordered online. Appears to be a takeout only place at least when I went. Tables were set up to block entering beyond the doorway. Food was good. Ordered the fried squid - was good but no longer crispy with travel time. Dan Dan noodle was okay, not spicy. Beef broccoli was good. Food was good as leftovers the next day too.
