Robert Wiedmaier offers diners four-, five-, and seven-course menus of modern French cuisine, featuring dishes like a gratin of Prince Edward Island mussels, Alaskan ling cod in lemongrass-miso broth, and lamb tenderloins wrapped in phylo and served with a cumin Madeira sauce. The "classic French cuisine in an elegant setting," with "service that is attentive without being overbearing," makes it popular with the diplomatic corps, while a location at the edge of Georgetown makes it convenient before a performance at the Kennedy Center. It's "hard to have anything but a nice time here." |
