The Monocle Restaurant - 107 D Street NE
Known as an "old school American" restaurant and bar near Capitol Hill, this venue is a longtime favorite among Hill staffers and prominent Washingtonian alike. With a classically wood interior and intimate feel, The Monocle Restaurant is a fantastic place to take visiting guests to drink and dine after a long day of sightseeing. Not only is their food delicious and wine list expansive, tourists might even spot a famous politician or two sitting at the next table.
