The selling points of this place are many: seasonal decorations, food is exceptional, and service is professional at the highest levels. Serving sizes are large for entrees, so be prepared for leftovers, or split a dish with another person. I like their rigatoni with red sauce and sausage a lot.

The food and service were impeccable. I had 2 non alcoholic drinks, Pom-persimmon and the pineapple ginger. Both were delicious and beautifully garnished. I had an appetizer special, baked oysters, seasoned to perfection. For my main, I had the slow cooked short rib and it is one of the best I ever had. It was served on a bed of celery mash and bok choy. For dessert I had the passion fruit pineapple coconut cake. I also got to finish my dining companions chocolate peanut bomb. I will definitely be back to try their other offerings. Everything was superb. Highly recommended.

Elizabeth’s was an amazing experience overall! Every dish was presented with a detailed explanation and with care. All of the courses were carefully and meticulously crafted to bring out delicious, complex flavors. The food was also beautiful to look at with an artistic flare. This restaurant was a very special treat on my recent trip to DC.
