Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Mount Vernon Square

Food and cocktails were great!!! Highly recommend to anyone, the dishes were not only good - they were delicious. The type of dishes you look back too and remember when comparing to other restaurants as some of the best. The service provided was also great!

I can’t get over how incredible our server was. Elvis immediately acknowledged that we were vegetarians and had accommodations made for even the fixed Valentine’s Day menu. We truly appreciate it. And not to forget, but the food was incredible. I would go back and eat an entire bowl of the beet salata

My wife and I went here for Valentine's day. The food quality was overall very good. The salad we ordered was ok, but the waiter promptly offered a replacement for my wife. The oysters were (in my opinion - over 20 for 6 smaller variety ones) overpriced, but generally I expect that some in a restaurant like this. I do give them good marks for overall experience and ambiance. My wife prefers the high tables in the bar area, but this is no ordinary bar area, there are dedicated wait staff...plenty of them. The service is prompt, but not overbearing. The entrees were quite good, and the dessert special presentation was also on point. I put this in my special occasion category due to the price, but I would not call it outlandish. Really like the bar seating and vibe there...nothing crazy and not overcrowded. The main restaurant is well lit, but some of the seating is a little tight and normal height tables. Service throughout is consistent.

Our dinner on February 11 was excellent - escarole salad and sea bream crudo, and bucatini and squab breast. All the staff, from the host on down, were cordial and helpful, and our server, Adriana was delightful. We look forward to joining you again in the near future.

The pork bao, anarizushi, and octopus were excellent. The monster pasta was delicious. The pizza crust is thick but very light and very tasty. Great place to eat before an event at Capital One. There were two kids ages 10 and 14 in our party and they enjoyed the food.
