Great Find. I found this place when looking for Free Wi-Fi, that was opened late, not a chain, and served acutal food. And that is what I found. Honestly, this place is awesome. The Paninis are really good. When I got here, the network was down for a little bit and for some reason Vista wouldn't let me get back on. The guy felt bad, so I got a free MUFFIN! How is that for customer service? You don't get that much anymore, huh?

I will be back again and again. Great find!!

Very Notable Place. Ok, my friend always makes fun of me for my forays at this place- but I am totally addicted! I love the food, the vibe, and the spiced latte! The WiFi is fast and consistent, and they are always open late (think 11pm or 12am usually?).

As a testament to how often I come here- the staff greets me with a "welcome back!" or a "I haven't seen you in a day, how have you been?". I am a sucker for customer service and this place nails it.

I have tried most everything on the menu- and have never had less than a satisfying experience. The Roast Beef/Turkey sandwich with brie is a personal favorite, as is the Creamy Chicken Pasta. And of course, the spiced latte (cinnamon, nutmeg, honey, espresso, and milk...yumm).

Prices are incredibly reasonable, and the fact that I have stayed here for hours and never been given less than effusive service is notable as well.

Great open late place. Steam is a straight forward, unpretentious place with a very friendly staff. (I concur, the guy who is always behind the cash register is a nice guy) . I like the fact that it holds long hours -- very long hours.

There are so few late night non-alcohol serving joints in Dupont, let alone DC in general, so any place that is open *past* midnite on a weekday gets MASSIVE points for me.

Seriously. 5 stars right there!
