Hmmm...
That's a strange list of disappointments, with the strangest being Maestro IMO. Thanks for mentioning it though as it frames up the perspective in this thread very well.
As a usually anti-DC food person from NYC I have no qualms about telling my most snooty of fellow NYC foodies that Maestro is better than anything NYC has to offer at that price +25%. That is a big statement, but I believe in it 100%.
