- SSandraVIPWashington, D.C. Area •47 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoExcellent food and service. We got the seven course tasting menu and it was amazing. The courses came out perfectly timed and delicious. However the noise level in the restaurant was such that it was hard to speak across the table. The music was incredibly loud in a place with nothing to dampen the noise. It was the only blemish on our experience.More infoBrescaPrice: Expensive• Contemporary French / American• U Street Corridor•4.6
