New American in Shaw

The Dabney ★ 4.6

122 Blagden Alley NW, Washington, DC 20001

The Dabney in Washington DC is Jeremiah Langhorne's Michelin-star Blagden Alley room in Shaw, a Mid-Atlantic wood-hearth kitchen built around regional.

Tip: Book the bar seats facing the hearth; the show is the kitchen, not the dining room. The Cellar wine bar is the quieter alternative.
