- MMichaelLos Angeles •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoTwo Michelin stars, so the price is what you would expect of such status. Staff, service, ambiance, and food are all impeccable. Went there with my wife for our anniversary and although there is not a place for a candlelit dinner, the staff did their best to accommodate us with crafted dessert items with simulated candles in the bar/dessert lounge. Thank you to Eric, Kinga, and Andrew for making the night even more spectacular. Will definitely return when I’m back in the states.More infoJôntPrice: Very Expensive• French / Japanese• U Street Corridor•4.8
- KKatieWashington, D.C. Area •4 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoThis is truly a one of a kind dining experience in DC. Some of the best service I’ve had. Our server was attentive, but didn’t hover and was so kind. We were able to get great recommendations on both drinks and food options. The beet salad, mushrooms, scallops, and shrimp were beyond delicious and I would highly recommend. For cocktail lovers the 3PM in Istanbul was excellent. We will certainly be going back to enjoy the atmosphere and to eat more of the tapas we were just too full to eat this time around.More infoZaytinya - DCPrice: Expensive• Mediterranean• Penn Quarter•4.7
- EEdWashington, D.C. Area •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoWas such a wonderful night. The restaurant was full but not so loud that you could not enjoy the conversation with your group. The food was outstanding. We could not stop talking about how cool it was that all of the ingredients came from the mid-Atlantic part of the USA. Service was wonderful. Cannot wait to go back again!More infoThe DabneyPrice: Very Expensive• American• Shaw•4.7
- BBobvipWashington, D.C. Area •95 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoWe did a date night at Tosca and took advantage of the fresh Truffles they were featuring. This was not the typical microscopic truffle shaving you get elsewhere- they really expended some truffles. Starting with a beef carpaccio with endive and truffles- amazing. I was lucky enough to score a veal chop - perfectly prepared and portioned just right. Of course the truffles just bring out the best. The starter courses were two delightful pastas- one of which was all egg yolks- no water. Perfect. Tosca has become our #1 destination restaurant- the ambiance and service are worthy of a star or two. Jonathon and Brian really go the extra mile to make the experience memorable.More infoToscaPrice: Expensive• Italian• Downtown•4.8
