New HeightsThree of us had a lovely dinnerThree of us had a lovely dinner at New Heights the evening of the great deluge. New Heights has always been a beautiful restaurant filled with warm colors and fabulous wood furniture. Our dinners were excellent (wahoo and scallops), and the crispy oyster appetizer was to die for. All in all, an excellent evening. We also really appreciate the fact that New Heights is quiet enough that people can actually hold conversations while they are dining.6/10/2013 12:00:00 AMPerfect eveningWe celebrated a special occasion honoring a family member, and New Heights was the perfect place, beginning with a gracious welcome at the front door. It was a lovely and comfortable setting for dinner and conversation. We were pleased with all our selections from the menu -- really superb food and drink. Our waiter was knowledgeable and personable, and he and all the service staff were courteous and efficient. It was a perfect evening for us. This was our first visit, but it won't be our last. Our thanks to all at New Heights5/30/2013 12:00:00 AMWe had a terrific early dinner.We had a terrific early dinner.

We had some great gin and tonic's with home made tonic that were fantastic. The entree was fantastic. Desserts were ok but not amazing like the entree. Will be back on my next trip to DC5/23/2013 12:00:00 AMThis was our first time atThis was our first time at this restaurant and it was very good all around.5/23/2013 12:00:00 AMBetter than I expectedI began going to New Heights a couple of decades ago....heard it has gone through many changes. The gin menu and tonics are quite fun and delicious. Our server was very attentive and pleasant. Most all of the dishes were called something like mousse, but ended up being something totally delightful and different! Totally enjoyable!!5/6/2013 12:00:00 AMStill a very good choiceImaginative menu, lovely dining room, casual with reasonable prices - a real find5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMFood excellent (especiallyFood excellent (especially the various salads) , greeting and seating by maitre'd welcoming, not too noisy, good wine list.

The owner was very hospitable, and our server was great.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMWow-WOw- WOWEverything about New Heights was incredible. The service was prompt & attentive but not intrusive. The food was gorgeous and flavorful. The heirloom root veggie salad is not to be missed. The pan seared scallops with leeks and asparagus tasted fresh- and each component was cooked just to tenderness. I ended my meal with the pomegranate sorbet...the perfect ending. Everything was sooo good, I thought about returning in the morning for brunch- but will save that treat for another visit to DC. Convenient location, too. Cheers for New Heights!4/26/2013 12:00:00 AMMany return diners; we now see whyOur first meal here will not be the last. The four-course prix fix dinner offerings and wine pairings were wonderfully satisfying. Heirloom root vegetable salad was lovely and refreshing. House-made fettuccine was one of the best dishes we've ever had anywhere (we've dined at terrific restaurants all over the the U.S. and Europe)--perfectly cooked, delicate pasta in light cream sauce, topped with an exquisite runny-yolk egg. The Spanish mackerel was delicious and well-prepared (the skin would have been better either crispy or omitted), and the serving size was just right for a third course entree. Husband loved his dessert mousse; my deconstructed apple pie was tasty. All the wines were well-chosen to complement each course.4/5/2013 12:00:00 AMWe have gone to New HeightsWe have gone to New Heights when we are in Washington, DC for the past twenty years (perhaps longer!)
