Best Cosy Restaurants in Foggy Bottom

Simply the BEST! There is a reason our dear friend requested her birthday celebration be at The Prime Rib. The delicious cocktails are prepared just to our specifications. The food is always excellent (prime rib, medium rare, done perfectly!); the service is sublime; and the ambiance is beautiful, along with the melodious sounds of the piano close by. We had a remarkable time, lost in the beauty of dining in a scene reminiscent of a long-ago and far away steak house. The Christmas decorations added to the magic. Thank you for an amazing dining experience.

Five stars for A. Bar and Kitchen. The food was delicious - my favorites were the duck and the oyster mushrooms. The service is lovely. One can hear themselves think. Not too loud but a very cool vibe. So wonderful to finally have a good restaurant not too far from the Kennedy Center! I also can’t wait to try it in nicer weather - they have a very cool space out back with a fire pit and a little garden.

We dined a I Ricchi on Christmas Eve. The promise of a lovely l and festive ambience, outstanding food, and impeccable service was delivered. Unfortunately, we were originally placed at a small wobbly table in a tight corner, too cozy with the folks at the table behind us and a plant touching the back of my head. Upon our request we were immediately moved to a more comfortable spot. Expensive, but definitely worth it for an evening of fine dining.

Excellent in every way. I had the delicious fish stew from the menu. My wife had the grouper special. The prices are very good, especially given the high quality of food and service.

There was a private event that required we be seated in a private dining room that was cozy and comfortable. Despite this huge event happening, our service by Gustavo was incredibly attentive and timely. What a warm and wonderful human being! Chef Todd Gray always manages to hire the best staff out there. They are incredibly personable, knowledgeable and caring about their work. The food is always scrumptious and top notch. Equinox is our go-to plant-based restaurant for sure. It's always a celebration of food, love, ambience, and fabulous service. We adore it there.
