Since opening in early 2005, Domku has offered DC residents and tourists a unique dining alternative to the hurried and glitzy offerings of downtown DC. The eclectic menu of mostly Slavic and Scandinavian fare has brought pierogis, borscht, goulash, Janssen’s Temptation, and pickled herring into the everyday language of DC diners. Our menu stays as true to the foods of the region as possible but journeys, on occasion, to other former Soviet bloc regions such as Hungary, Bulgaria and the Caucasus. Perfect for cold weather months, the food is light and healthful enough to enjoy all year long.

Located in historic Petworth in northwest Washington, DC, Domku provides comfort and sustenance in a relaxed setting where locals mix with travelers looking to experience something off the beaten path. Housed in a former hardware store, Domku retains the rough and ready feel of the building’s former years. Combine that with the exposed brick and retro furnishings and you’ve got a modern but unpretentious place to hang-out with friends over cocktails or enjoy a quiet Sunday morning coffee and breakfast.

Witamy! Välkomnande!
