DC Waterfront Restaurants

The United States’ capital city bustles with lawmakers, staffers, political activists and tourists. Since Congress meets well into the night while in session, this means there will be hearty competition for every meal. Between visiting the Washington Monument and the Jefferson Memorial, experience the plethora of international cuisines available in the political seat of the world's melting pot. In the Waterfront district, you'll find seafood galore. Although that’s not too surprising, you may be interested to know that you can also sample Italian cuisine as well as Cajun and Creole fare, both of which are rare treats in the north. A handful of American, Mediterranean, French and gluten-free and vegan restaurants round out your choices in the Waterfront area.
