Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Downtown

The food was very inspired and we appreciated non alcoholic and vegetarian options.

We have been to this restaurant many times. The food is consistently good one of the quieter, restaurants around with real table cloths. Although they serve the food fast. There was absolutely no rush. They have European manners in that they don’t clear plates until everybody’s done. another example of how they don’t rush you. 

Went for a family New Year’s brunch and everything was absolutely lovely. Decided to order a la carte instead of the brunch buffet and it was a good move… we could hardly eat wht we order let alone go for seconds. Any restaurant that can satisfy a Boomer. Gen X, Gen Z and Gen ALpha to the point of being stuffed to our eyelids on a holiday is a winner in my book.

A luxurious experience with a delicious and innovative menu. As a vegan, my husband especially appreciated the creativity to bring “seafood” to the fore. The caviar plate delighted us with the combination of pickled shallots, capers,fresh herbs and the surprisingly decadent finger lime crème fraiche. Each dish was beautifully composed and well balanced, highlighting very unique ingredients: chiogga beets, Okinawa sweet potatoes, kinome leaf, tamarillos. Wine pairings were perfect. Hope we come back to DC soon so we can experience the changing menu.

The food was excellent and better than I expected. The restaurant has a casual elegance. I will return.
