Fiola Mare in Washington DC is Fabio and Maria Trabocchi's Georgetown waterfront seafood room on K Street, a Potomac-facing dining hall with a crudo bar.
OrderThe crudo platter to start; the kitchen builds it from whatever was unloaded that morning.
TipThe patio runs from April to October; Sunday lunch on the water with a glass of vermentino is the room's editorial best moment.
Old Ebbitt Grill in Washington DC is the city's oldest saloon, founded 1856 and now serving 1.5 million guests a year across four bars at its 15th Street.
OrderThe crab cake plate; the kitchen runs through 1000 cakes a week and the binder is invisibly thin.
TipThe 15:00-18:00 oyster Happy Hour is the city's best seafood deal at $1.95 each; sit at the Old Bar.
Annabelle in Washington DC is Frank Ruta's elegant Dupont Circle dining room on Florida Avenue, the Knightsbridge Group's most polished kitchen with a French.
OrderThe whole roasted duck for two, carved tableside; pre-order on the booking page.
TipThe chef's counter overlooks the kitchen pass and is the better booking for the food show; book at lunch for a calmer pace.
Maketto in Washington DC is Erik Bruner-Yang's H Street Cambodian-Taiwanese cafe and dining room, with a sneaker boutique on the ground floor and a courtyard.
OrderThe Taiwanese fried chicken sandwich on a Maketto-baked bun; the menu has carried it since opening.
TipBrunch service runs Cambodian breakfast plates that the dinner menu skips; the courtyard bar is the local move.
The Salt Line in Washington DC is the Navy Yard New England-style seafood room overlooking Diamond Teague Park, with Connecticut-style lobster rolls.
OrderThe hot Connecticut-style lobster roll on a butter-toasted bun; the menu favourite since opening.
TipPatio runs from April to October and faces the Anacostia Booking recommended for weekends.
Barbouzard in Washington DC is chef Cedric Maupillier's French-Mediterranean dining room on K Street since July 2025, the Convivial chef's next chapter.
OrderThe Bouillabaisse Marseillaise; the kitchen's anchor seafood preparation and the menu's editorial focal point.
TipSunday brunch starts at 11:00; the alcove booths take the smaller parties and the bouillabaisse comes with a 24-hour heads-up.
