Chaia is located at 3207 Grace St. NW (see map below). Here’s what the magazine’s foodie aficionados had to say about the eatery:

You won’t miss the meat at Chaia, Suzanne Simon and Bettina Stern’s vegetarian “farm to taco” shop near the Georgetown waterfront. What began as a pop-up at farmers markets has evolved into a 27-seat taqueria reminiscent of those in Tulum, Mexico—airy, health-minded, but rife with small luxuries like Italian sparkling lambrusco on tap. Griddled-to-order corn tortillas come solo ($3.75) or in a trio ($11), stuffed with seasonal produce such as Moroccan-spiced carrots and chèvre or tomatillo-sauced garlicky greens. A new lineup of sides and sipping shrubs rounds out the offerings. 3207 Grace St., NW; 202-333-5222.
