I took my wife here for her birthday and as an entire dining experience this has been the best place we've eaten in the D.C. area, and we've been to Citronelle and 2941. We don't normally enjoy Italian food, but all the food was wonderful and the amuse bouche were amazing. It's great not only to get the set meals, but little unexpected surprises as well. Some of the amuse were the best I've ever had and I just wanted more. You can also get seats which allow you to view the kitchen as they prepare the good if that's to you liking. The service can be a bit indifferent, but they were efficient and the food more than makes up for any slight shortcomings in that arena.
