The Block - Annandale

The block really went down over the years with bad maintenance personnel. The bathrooms are dirty and disgusting, there was crusty **** hit over one of the toilet seats. I lost my appetite! Over the weekends, the block has a strange club-like scene (some of the singers are talented where I found sugar puppets that bring young girls. Block Bar: The Lychee Martini is delicious and worth the 20 minutes waiting! I LOVE the Drunken pumpkin seasonal cocktail and enjoyed falling in Love Bourbon and cinnamon cocktail and Mango Twister Mojito. My husband like his Dirty Martini and Porter. On weekdays there are some happy hour specials from 4 8pm Poke Works: I have a veggie bowl loaded with kale noodles, quinoa and vegetables. Sooo many delicious unlimited toppings to choose from organic tofu, bang kale, shredder nori, and seaweed salad were my favorite! I was filled to eat only 1/2 of them and eat the rest for dinner the next day (it was pretty good! Balo kitchen (from the Pho Wheels Food Truck: The Tofu Auberginenbahn Mi Sandwich is greasy and not well balanced with salad, shredded carrots, greasy slices of eggplants and brittle tofu. After I had eaten 1/2 sandwich, I threw in the towel! The Pommes were the best part! The Hakka noodles with tofu and pile of veggies was fun to try and taste with curry powder, but they had a mild spicy kick and the lumpy noodles and spices 't well in my stomach. SnoCream ice cream (former Munch ice cream: Every time I go to the block, I make sure I save space for dessert! My favorite flavors are Matcha Oreo, Blueberry Earl Grey, Key Lime, and chocolate salted caramel with roasted almonds. The ice cream is tasteful, without being excessively sweet and killing my tastes. On some occasions the ice had a freezer. The living cones are fun and my favorite cones are the ash coconut and red velvet. They're fragile and collapsed when I grabbed it hard. I love cutting off my ice cream with a drop of nutella and oreo cookies... and it's free! The bubble tea is ginormous and good. Note that although the block is open up to 2 o'clock in Fri Sat nights, most providers close at 10 o'clock except Balo Kitchen. I loved coming here, but the dining room is badly maintained, the quality of food is essentially and a strange amount. I just come back to the ice or to drink quickly when I'm in the area.

Unspeakably expensive for less than mediocre food. The Bubble tea and snow cream place is good and they are the only ones with nice employees and food that are worth getting. I was often disappointed almost every time, no matter what I get. Price is not worth it, there are other better restaurants around Annandale that serve the same food that is both better and cheaper. Their steakfries, dumplings and tempoura are completely hit or miss and expensive as the rest. Poke's never really good. The atmosphere is beautiful and beautiful, but it is incredibly loud. Cute place, but not good food, not comforting or really possible to have a conversation or hear something.

The Bold Dumpling has AMAZING food and taste! I can't get this place back enough! Great portions, great taste! You have sooo many Boba tea flavors! It tends to get packed, we were very happy to find a table, but I will return to this place! Chicken dumplings are AMAZING! 10/10 love this place

EVERYTHING WAS ABSOLUTELY BOMB! I WENT TO All attached and will do it again and again! There is also a Bar and Poke restaurant that look AMAZING! MUST TRY
