We had a GREAT time at Equinox. This is a very special restaurant. The entire menu is fabulous. I love their ability to cover both delicious omnivore and exquisite plant based options. All food is impeccable. There is something for everyone - and I’ve noticed people of all ages and much diversity. The staff is warm and inviting and the atmosphere is “elevated cozy”. LOVE this place. congrats on the one year in the new space. Support this DC treasure!

We had a GORGEOUS dinner with my in-laws the night before Thanksgiving. We've heard great things about Iron Gate, but truly everything from the service, to the items we ordered (and multiple little extras the chef sent out) were extraordinary. The chocolate dessert, we all agreed, was one of the best of our lives. Truly a hospitality-driven experience and we can't wait for an excuse to head back.

It's been many years since I've been to the Tabard Inn, so long ago that I was living in Dupont on Riggs Place. It was low key and funky and much smaller. The present version is very different but equally enjoyable. Larger, still good food, but more space and fewer distractions. A great place to meet for breakfast and escape from the bustling of one of Washington's friendliest circles.
