I phoned the restaurant to inquire about vegetarian options for two of my fellow diners. I was told they could have the soup. When I asked the Manager if the Chef could prepare something else (as many restaurants do) I was told "maybe pasta and vegetables." This lack of accommodation was disappointing for a Washingtonian pick, to say the least.

Twice they were understaffed, making for slow service.

Understated and smooth, the menu here is modern American and beautifully served.

Newly remodeled with contemporary design, updated menu with hip entrees. Lunch is a fabulous blend of business and entertainment.

The food has some very nice touches, but the service was incredibly slow. They kept bringing bread instead of food.
