1789 is the best restaurant in the District… and it’s priced accordingly. If you’ve got a couple hundred dollars to burn, treat yourself and a friend to an incredible meal. I highly recommend the Rack of American Lamb for an entrée, though you really can’t go wrong with any menu item. For dessert, though, definitely try out the vanilla and chocolate bread pudding. I’m not necessarily a big fan of bread pudding, in general, but this version was different and incredible.
If you want to try this place out, but don’t quite have the cash, keep in mind that they offer a pre-theater prix-fixe menu available weekdays before 6:45pm and an after-hours menu available Sunday through Thursday after 9pm, and Friday and Saturday nights after 10pm. Both these menus are $35.
