    I can see why this place is one of the most talked about restaurants in Dc. I'm glad I chose it for the occasion in which I was asking the woman I've been dating for a couple months to officially be my girlfriend. As I snuck away to the host stand to secretly set up the occasion the 2 lovely hostesses were eager and excited to help me plan the evening and coordinated with the server to bring a very nice card provided by the restaurant in which I wrote a note that came with dessert. Speaking of this guy, our server Simi was phenomenal. He took great care of us with a level of professionalism that had me in awe and his passion for the food spoke thru his verbage. The support staff also matched that level and kept our table neat and clean with an expert level of care and elegance. The food was outstanding and portion sizes enough to feed a family of 4 lol. We will clearly be back

Discover Dupont Circle

Thanks to its proximity to Embassy Row, the Dupont Circle neighborhood of Washington, D.C. caters to the truly cultured palate. Shout "Opa!" over a few Greek small plates, blend in with the locals with a pub-style liquid brunch or go fully upscale at one of the boutique hotels and French bistros nearby. Although you may rub elbows with big shots along the way, you can still bask in the neighborhood's slow pace among some of the city's most iconic historical mansions. From dining on authentic tapas outdoors to digging into authentic DC-style chili bowls, new tastes await around every corner. Don't be afraid to take a stroll away from the actual circle itself, since you're only a few blocks from Michelin-star cuisine in multiple directions.
