Burritos

Fancy a breakfast burrito? You won't find one better than ours.

We have a few options for you: The Earlybird Burrito, The Carne Asada Burrito, and Carnitas Burrito.

• Earlybird Burrito

Our Earlybird Burrito features soft scrambled eggs, potatoes, rice, pinto beans, queso fresco, cotija cheeses, tender fried chicken, crema, avocado, and mole sauce.

We know it's a lot of ingredients in one bite, but trust us when we say it's worth every calorie! 

• Carne Asada Burrito

If you like a little spice in your breakfast, then this Carne Asada Burrito should be right up your alley. Our carne asada burrito features runny fried eggs, potatoes, charred onion-jalapeno, red cabbage slaw, red salsa, crema, and “nacho” cheese. 

We're not joking when we say this one packs a punch!

Looking for an even more savory option? Our Carnitas Burritos are sure to please.

Each of our Carnitas Burritos is stuffed with soft scrambled eggs, smoky roasted pork rib, green salsa, rice & pinto beans, queso fresco, chopped onion, cilantro, maduros – and a few more secret ingredients that can take your taste buds by surprise. This is one of our most popular burritos (manager's pick, in fact!), and we guarantee you won't regret trying it. 

Waffles 

What's a hearty American breakfast without waffles?

At Scarlet Oak DC, we are proud to serve our signature waffles topped with syrups, butter, and all sorts of other goodies.

Sweet lovers will surely fall in love with our Maduro & Nutella Waffles – generously topped with sweet plantains, Nutella, and whipped cream. 

On the other hand, savory eaters will enjoy our Braised Chicken Mole Waffle – loaded with braised chicken, crema, cotija, avocado, onions, cilantro, radish, and pumpkin seeds. 

But don't just take our word for it; come experience these yourself! 

Scarlet Breakfast 

We've arrived at one of the heaviest and most filling dishes from our brunch menu – the Scarlet Breakfast. The Scarlet Breakfast consists of two eggs, honey wheat toast, a choice of either bacon or steak, and a side dish of fries or rice and beans. 

Whatever sparks your fancy, the Scarlet Breakfast was made to satisfy even the heaviest of brunch eaters.

Risotto Balls 

Are you a cheese lover but tired of eating the same old mac and cheese? Why not try something similar but with a twist?

That's exactly what our Risotto Balls are all about. Each Risotto Ball is a delectable blend of the best cheeses: parmesan, asiago, ricotta, and Wisconsin brick cheese.

We can't describe how good these are, so come try them out for yourself! 

Pizza 

We know how much you love our pizzas, so we decided to add three new options to our brunch menu. Say hello to our newest additions: our Margherita Pizza, Moe's Pizza, It's-A-Meat-A-Ball, and Maryland Crab Pizza.

We'd love to talk about each one of these pizzas here, but we'll save that for another time. For now, just come by and try them out for yourself!  

Wait, there's more! 

We hope you enjoy this new version of our brunch menu as much as we enjoyed creating it.

The menu items above are just some of the newest additions to our brunch menu. We've got a whole lot more that we weren't able to cover in this post.
