• The restaurant address is incorrect. It is on The corner of E Street NW and 9th St. And, Daniel the maitre d is great! ;)

• Bill Addison was "hooked by a dish called 'Ibrico tendon,' where noodles fashioned from Ibrico ham consomm and Japanse kuzu root mimicked the translucent chewiness of beef ligament."

• It is hard to go wrong here. Buffalo chicken skin was great. Lobster roll, banh mi & grilled cheese on point. Every cocktail delicious and great service!

• Amazing drinks, knowledgable bartenders, and great service. Get the lobster roll - hands down most amazing thing. Oysters and grilled cheese are on point.

• Obama's favorite chef, Jose Andres, feeds the plebes at his Penn Quarter restaurant. Since it takes ages to get a reservation, we hope you booked yours last year.

• Reservations are hard to come by at this six-customer, two-chef restaurant. Call exactly at 10am (not 10:05) one month ahead for a reservation.

• Try the foie Gras waffle and grilled cheese next time. Bahmi slider was ok. Liked uni panini and chimichirrones. Sparkling water costs $7! Excellent drinks
