a diner from Washington, D.C., Capitol Hill
Been to this place many times and it's just not what it used to be -- and it's overpriced for that lower quality of food. Great, shady, pretty patio though - the best on the Hill and one of the best in the city. But each time I've gone there lately I come away thinking I would have gotten a much better meal for less bucks down the street at La Colline or even The Monocle. One saving grace is the mademoiselle of raspberries puff pastry dessert.

Great place "on the hill" to relax outside. Service is attentive and friendly. Food is well prepaired but a bit limited. I have eaten there several times and always been very happy. Duck is great as are the seafood dishes. Filet tends to be a bit small. The tarts are always done well.
