“Absolutely love coming here for lunchtime , It's just a 5 to 10 minute walk to and from the jobsite and the sandwiches are delicious. I personally recommend the Monument (If you're big like me ? / also get it with the pickle on the side, their pickles are really good too.) or the Chicken salad for something lighter. They have plenty of drinks and snacks available as well, which is perfect for these scalding hot days that've been hounding down on everyone around the Navy Yard. 100% Recommend visiting and trying out their sandwiches or other Menu items when you're around!”

“Had to make a quick dinner decision. No hot wings, baked chickens etc. Justin boxed frozen dinners. No family meals. Single frozen dinners. Accepts EBT but not the Senior Healthy Benefits UCard. The Convenience Store is in an ALL income area. Home owners, renters, and Seniors. Most people are on a fixed income and Seniors could buy more if they had more fresh fruits and veggies and accepted the Senior Benefit Card. The younger home owners have a great selection of wines.”

“I stopped by this store a few months ago and was pleasantly surprised by how affordable everything was. I was actually planning to go to the Walmart across the road but decided to check this place out first and I’m so glad I did. The store was stocked with lots of new items, the prices were really low and the staff were super helpful in guiding me to what I needed. Definitely worth a visit and you’ll love the variety. Some of the pics I took are here.”

“Bolling Commissary is always a clean, well-kept spot that has all your basic grocery needs. I used to shop here regularly when I lived closer because it was quiet, organized, and always stocked. That said, this review is all about the sushi inside the Commissary—and let me just say, it’s hands down the BEST sushi I’ve ever had. I’ve traveled all over the world, including Japan, and this sushi is truly a hidden gem. It’s always fresh, always delicious, and never disappoints. My go-to is the chicken teriyaki roll, but I also love the shrimp tempura roll. Honestly, I could eat it every single day. I highly recommend it to anyone in the area—definitely give it a try!”
