- TthomasAsheville / Western North Carolina •3 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoHad a phenomenal dinner. Our waiter Fabian was spectacular. Made the whole experience even better great drinks. The halibut was spectacular. You absolutely have to get the oysters Rockefeller. Happy hour get the oyster dozen special is a plus. One thing to keep in mind if it’s really busy, there is a bar all the way to the left. Also that was wide open and we did not know it was there until we sat down to eat More infoOld Ebbitt Grill$$$$• American• Downtown•4.8
- DDawnGoldGreater Boston •16 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWe no longer live in the DMV but whenever we return to the area, Et Voila is a must. Last night was as perfect as ever. Wonderful service, excellent wine at a good price - a Bordeaux blend and a white burgundy were our choices. My husband loved the mussels and I ordered the beef bourguignon. That was the best beef bourguignon I have ever had. The meat was so tender. The vegetables were cooked perfectly but the sauce was particularly spectacular. It was earthy and complex. I wish I knew the ingredients. It was divine! Love Et Voila.More infoEt Voila$$$$• French• Palisades Northwest•4.8
- RRichardGoldWashington, D.C. Area •86 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoI've written written enough raves about this place. Our most recent visit was as an emergency reminder of how good Afghan food can be after a recent visit to another Afghan restaurant that couldn't have been more disappointing. Bistro Aracisia did its job. Faith restored. Just a wonderful place. Consistent excellence.More infoBistro Aracosia$$$$• Afghan• Palisades Northwest•4.8

Discover Washington, D.C
An international city with the food chops to show for it, Washington D.C. is brimming with new restaurants, coffee houses and spirited bars. And, while tablecloth dining has it’s place here (diplomats gotta eat), so does the casual yet delicious lunch spot (interns gotta eat, too). Near the Capitol, historic eateries and classic menus are favored by many. Excellent Filipino food can be found in Columbia Heights. Near Georgetown, upscale bistros and farm-to-table spots are the order of the day, and Adams Morgan is home to many international restaurants and locally owned cafes.
