For that reason I would choose one of the Dupont Circle options over the Wardman.
I do live in the area and agree with this assessment. I almost never eat at these restaurants. The only one that comes to mind that might be ok is Lebanese Taverna. Presumably, the chain places like Chipotle and McDonald's should be as expected.
