Guidebook for Washington
Food Scene
Excellent evening dinner or Sunday brunch. Make reservations quickly. Sometimes walk ins can be accommodated with about 15 to 30 minute wait, but that's okay, cross the street to Pearl Dive for an outdoor cocktail while you wait. Le Diplomate will text you when your table is ready!
Must try: Warm shrimp salad is my favorite light dinner option.
