Restaurants near Bancroft Playground

I took my girlfriend to La Grande Boucherie for our anniversary dinner. It was probably the best anniversary dining experience I could have asked for. The service was very professional and attentive. Our server was very kind and made sure we had a good experience. The food was incredible and the cocktails were tasty. I recommend LGB for special occasions and for dining with people you really care about—no better way to show them. Also, the live jazz bar was amazing. I want to say thank you for such a great memory, one that my partner and I will cherish for a long time to come.

This place never disappoints. What a great wine and cocktail menu. We started with a bottle of Sauvignon blanc followed by their famous crab cakes which were superb. We ended the meal with slices of key lime pie. The restaurant was busy...thank goodness we had a reservation but the waitstaff never hurries the customers which is delightful. If you’re in DC, don’t miss eating here.

My favorite restaurant in DC! Took friends visiting from out of town and they loved it! Something for everyone, vegetarians, fish and meat eaters all happy.

Fabulous venue. Came here for the inauguration and made dinner reservation on a lark. We’re from Florida and did not know the restaurant. Now we do. Wonderful experience and delicious servings start to finish. We will be back.

The food here is insane! From the bread to the olive oil and olive dip they give to go with it…so good. I had the ravioli and my husband the lasagna and they were outstanding! This is a new favorite I now have. The only thing I don’t love, but it is just what is, is the closeness of tables and noise level. However, I would sit with someone else to get a table here! Make reservations!!!
