CityZen - 1330 Maryland Ave SW
Set adjacent to the lobby of the luxe Mandarin Oriental Hotel near the Southwest waterfront, this elegantly imaginative restaurant and bar is actual proof that fine dining in DC is not only alive but worth every penny. Although every course is well crafted, the best one to enjoy here is definitely dessert. Executive pastry chef Matthew Peterson clearly picked up a thing or two when he competed for the top prize on Bravo's
Top Chef: Just Desserts, serving CityZen guests treats that satisfy every sweet tooth craving imaginable.
GofG Must Try: The peanut butter and jelly dessert compiled of grape ice cream and crushed nuts, which mimics the flavors of the actual sandwich.
