Washington DC

Busboys and Poets

What a cute, fun place to eat!

The pizzas were delicious, and we absolutely devoured the Brussels sprouts.

Everything on the menu sounded wonderful, the wine list was nice, and the staff was very friendly.

​We didn't get a chance to enjoy open mic night, but we did browse all of the books.

Joe's Seafood, Prime Steak & Stone Crab

What an incredible dining experience! We loved everything about this meal.

The wine list was phenomenal, so we had our favorite Silver Oak.

The staff was very friendly. We all shared many laughs throughout the night.

And the food... holy moly, the food was amazing! From the stone crab and lobster topped filet, to the giant prawns & key lime pie. Everything was delicious and perfectly prepared.

​We will definitely be back to Joe's!

Le Diplomate

Highly recommend!

French food is my favorite and LeDiplomate did not disappoint. Everything we ate was absolutely delicious.

As Katie Lee would say, there was "no carb left behind!" We ate allllllllll the yummy bread.
More carbs please!

The seafood tower was the star of the show, though. Everything on it was incredible and fresh. We loved it!

*It was cold outside, so our patio table had a heat lamp over it, which caused the lovely pink hugh in my photos.

Old Ebbitt Grill

We enjoyed the Old Ebbitt Grill so much that we ate here twice during our trip.

The bartenders and wait staff were all very polite.

All of the food was delicious. From the oysters and salads, to soups and crab cakes.

Everything was yummy!

Ruth's Chris

It's hard to go wrong with Ruth's Chris, and this was no exception. I had my usual petite filet medium rare with a blue cheese crust. Perfection. Big Strong Handsome usually tops his with a lobster tail.

As a very special treat, because our son was with us, we ordered the lobster mac-n-cheese as one of our sides. Y'all. I could have rolled around in it. It was what I imagine heaven will be like. I ate an embarrassing amount of it and enjoyed every last bite. Even after dinner when I realized how stuffed I was, I looked at my husband and said, "it was totally worth it."  If you're going to be bad... make it count. Get the lobster mac-n-cheese. Thank me later.
