Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Northeast

Amazing restaurant, great food, great service. Highly recommended!

This is my second trip to The Dabney and it was as excellent as my first trip. The tasting menu has gone from 8 to 5 courses but there is no lack of fantastic food here. Terrific combinations of seafood and unexpected flavors along with the smoky tastes from the open wood fire are a special experience. The space is so warm and cozy, it redefines what a Michelin Star dining experience should be. The meats are spectacular as well. So many great dishes. Highly recommend the Grilled Sloop Point Oysters, The Tuna Pork Rinds, Scallop crudo, Fried Sugar Toads (it ain’t what you think and it’s better than you can imagine), the Chesapeake Rockfish, Fried Porgy (a real highlight) and the Lamb were all perfectly done and presented beautifully. The staff is attentive and friendly but never rushed. The cocktails are outstanding as well. The Old Fashioned is one of the best I’ve had. Prices are not for the faint of heart but you get top notch value for the money. I’ll be back here next trip down to DC. I wish this place was in NYC.

The tasting menu was a fun delight with an interesting mix of Korean flavors. The staff is well versed in the menu and their excitement for the dishes shows.

Best experience ever! Brought along 5 friends who had never been to a similar fine dining restaurant and they were all floored! A little apprehensive at the price at first but by the end they were amazed at the value of experience and different flavors. Everything of the best quality! I wouldn't be surprised if they get a third star soon!

Outstanding food amazing service and classy decor - but yes it is pricey Of course the menu is vegan but there is no faux meats or weird ingredients - all just real food made into extraordinary sumptuous bites of happiness 😊 great for a special occasion
