In the course of getting the daughter graduated from Georgetown last week/weekend, we dined at the following:
Kolumbia (amusingly enough located on "
K" St.): Outstanding! Wife and daughter had fish; I had the tasting menu with wine pairings. The tasting menu was a bit unique in that what I got was the
Chef's choice, not mine (i.e., each course was a surprise). But I took the chance on letting the Chef make the selections because I honestly did not see anything on the menu that I would not order. Taking the chance worked superbly for me. After the meal, had a great conversation with the chef (Jamie Stachowski).
Kinkead's: In spite of other reviews calling it over rated, we again had an outstanding dining experience.
Ristorante Tosca: One of the most superb dinners we have ever had.
Cafe Atlantico: Continues to meet and exceed expectations. My bacon-wrapped pheasant was particularly unique ... and OUTSTANDING! One of these days, I hope to be successful in snagging a reservation at the the Minibar (3 for 3 failures so far).
Mie N Yu: We had a more unique "table" (kind of inside a barrel) than on our first visit, but the food on this second visit was not as impressive as our first visit. Would still kind of recommend it for the "experience" and decor.
