Succotash PRIME is a progressive perspective of classic Southern favorites. James Beard Award winner Edward Lee brings his Korean roots and Southern repertoire to a soulful Southern Steakhouse menu.

SUCCOTASH is named after the classic dish that has been a longstanding staple of the Southern table. While many know “Succotash” when they see it, the dish has been interpreted, modified, and passed from generation to generation for centuries. Our “Succotash” is special to us and we invite you to experience the South from our point of view.

    We waited an hour for our food which was only appetizers and much of it arrived cold. Our server forgot to bring things to the table and rarely checked in on us. The food was decent but pricey.

    I have been to succotash many times and never had a problem. Last night, the service was awful. I thought they forgot about our table and asked a host to find a waiter so we could order. They then took very long for food and manager came over proactively to tell us food was taking longer than normal and would be out shortly. It finally came out but they brought appetizers at same time as mains. We didn't have enough room at the table. They then forgot about us again and took forever to get the check. We were a table of 5 and it was a business dinner.

    Second time there and look forward to the third! This time for lunch and we shared the fried green tomato salad as an appetizer (winner) and the bacon jam deviled eggs (another winner). And the crab cake is also a winner.

    Steaks are probably their forte. We went with chicken and seafood and were kind of underwhelmed. It was fine. I don't think the Asian-Southern fusion really works that well.

    Overall food was tasty and server was polite and attentive. Experience started subpar when greeter attempted to turn me away for walk-in service saying he was completely booked with reservations and couldn’t take a walk in until after 2:30pm (meanwhile restaurant was no where near full). So I immediately go to open table and see reservation availability from 12:45 on (time was currently 12:30m). So I booked the 12:45m and asked why would the restaurant could not give me a table or suggest For me to check for a reservation or give me the next available reservation (even after I told him I was from out of town!). Further, the bar was completely open, and greeter did not offer me That as an option. Someone came in after I pointed this out and asked for a walk-in table and he proceeded To provide The same Response of no walk-ins until after 2:30pm! This just is silly and poor customer service!

    We love going to Succotash Prime!! It’s one of our favorite places in the city. Their specialty frose’ is a fave and you can never go wrong with the Chicken and Waffles. Their cornbread and deviled egg starters are also a win.

    My guest and I chose Succotash PRIME because of its proximity to Harman Hall, as we had tickets to see Evita, and neither of us had eaten there unlike other restaurants in the area. It was noisy, so not necessarily a good place for an intimate dinner with great conversation. But, the Shrimp and Grits and Catfish were excellent. The bacon jam deviled eggs are a must. The service was outstanding and the wine selections good. We did not have dessert. The coffee was weak. Overall, a good beginning to a nice evening.

    The restaurant staff, particularly our server Niah was fantastic. Having been a server for many years, it’s amazingly rare for me to find a server that does everything just right. From the greet,to the suggestions and tour of the menu, and eventually the check, she was amazing. The food and the drinks were stellar as well. The front of the house manager Anthony Ray was attentive, friendly, and welcoming. Succotash Prime is not to be missed. Whenever you’re in D.C., do yourself a tremendous favor and stop in for a cold cocktail (the Milk Punch and Belle Punch are brilliant) and hot, delicious food.

    We came for a pre-theater dinner and were not disappointed. Overall well prepared food. A few of my table mates were over whelmed by the spice level so check with your server. The portions are very large.

    This restaurant is a good replacement for the lamented Vidalia as far as innovative southern cuisine. Good range of food options (including catfish), and yes succotash is available as a side. Also one of the few places in town to offer a standard mint julep.

    Nice fusion of traditional Southern cooking with Korean elements. For example, the collard greens, kimchi, and country ham dish was delicious and healthy. Fried chicken and waffles are always a treat and no less here. I would recommend a little more seasoning on the chicken (maybe lemon or lemon pepper?) to raise the flavor profile. Chicken skin was a little oily.

    Usually one of my favorite’s for special occasions/tasting menu. However, we told the server to not have cheese on food for dietary reasons and were told 2 items come with cheese on top but we could wipe it off. Also were not served dessert even though included in tasting menu. Server made multiple comments about us not finishing our mains and proceeded to ignore the rest of the time. Ended up leaving after 20 minutes of waiting for the dessert.
