The Duck & The Peach is a New American restaurant in D.C.’s Capitol Hill, inspired by the fresh flavors of California and the warmth of New England. Led by Executive Chef Katarina Petonito and Rammy's Pastry Chef of the Year Rochelle Cooper, our seasonal menu features signature dishes like rotisserie duck with watercress panzanella and elegant, handcrafted desserts.

Dinner is a celebration of the seasons, while our casual weekend brunch invites you to gather with friends and family. The space feels like stepping into a dear friend’s home—charming, warm, and welcoming.

Join us at The Duck & The Peach, where every meal is a meaningful celebration of food, connection, and community. Named a James Beard Finalist in 2024 and one of D.C.’s 25 best restaurants by The New York Times, we can’t wait to welcome you.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Katarina Petonito

From the OpenTable editors: From the same group as the beloved La Collina, restaurateur Hollis Wells Silverman's The Duck & The Peach digs deep into local, seasonal produce alongside rotisserie-grilled meats. Get comfortable in the industrial-chic dining room and consider going all out with the showstopping crispy duck feast that's served as part of a three-course meal that might include chèvre-filled dates and pumpkin gnudi. It's no wonder the New York Times named the restaurant one of the 25 best in DC.

    Poor service is kind of expected in DC, but Duck & the Peach takes poor service to a new low. Lack of attentiveness by wait staff could be tolerated if you weren’t required to give a 20% tip irrespective of how poor the service is, which is the amount that is automatically applied to every check and cannot be altered or removed.

    I had the duck, my daughter had the chicken. Both were outstanding. The Brussels sprouts were delicious too. Service was very good and attentive. The ambience was clean and modern but nothing was noteworthy or exceptional. Prices were high, the value was low. Overall, it was a worthwhile experience and the duck was memorable.

    Duck was cooked to perfection. Service was polite and generally attentive. Timing was a little off at a couple of touch points (wine service was a little late, didn’t offer to open/decant…a larger issue given the listing was a 2020 CdP and a 2022 was presented…no price adjustment offered). Portions were large (we had the duck feast and it lives up to the name). The chocolate desert was overly salted. Dessert beverages were either unavailable or not understood by the staff. All comments are intended to be constructive criticism. A nice experience overall.

    The fish crudo starter and roast chicken entrée were well made. The Maryland crab risotto tasted quite nice but was presented so as to appear like a grey porridge or gruel. The chocolate “trinitea” was perhaps the best item at the table.

    Everything was excellent! We had the caviar, Steak tartare, and rockfish appetizers. Then we shared the duck, which blew us away! Service was superb and we loved how the tables are spread further apart than most other restaurants. Great way to spend my birthday dinner! Thank you!

    I have grown very fond of the Duck and Peach for its good food and excellent service. Three of us ordered the special duck dinner for two and still had leftovers! The duck pate is truly delicious and both the main duck course and side dishes were terrific. The only weakness was in the dessert course, where the components did not quite mesh. I am always impressed by the friendliness of the staff and by how well they seem to work together as a team; that really adds to the experience. And the space feels open and airy.

    The food was excellent but the service was incredibly slow. It took 20 minutes before someone even filled our water cups and took our drink orders. The duck was delicious and we enjoyed all of the sides and other things we had to eat, but overall, the meal took several hours.

    A nice place with great tasting food. However, most everything on the drinks menu and dinner menu are overpriced. In addition, they automatically add 20% to your bill for service. At the prices they charge, they can and should pay the staff better. Very presumptuous of them to just add it to the bill.

    Think it has gone a bit downhill for brunch. Food a bit meh, service a bit "relaxed," and the person who checked us in a bit confused.
