Ceviche mixto of white fish, shrimp and squid in lime — plus garlic shrimp, ginger mussels and yuca con chicharrón. We're 9 min · 4.1 mi from White Oak, at 8739 Flower Avenue in Silver Spring.
White Oak rides New Hampshire Avenue down past the FDA's headquarters campus, nine minutes to Flower Avenue. For the office crowd that empties out of the federal campus at five, El Golfo's 3-to-7 happy hour is timed exactly right — and it beats every option in the White Oak Shopping Center for a sit-down client lunch.
From White Oak we're 9 min · 4.1 mi, which makes ceviche a short trip rather than a whole day's errand.
