The Monocle Restaurant

American restaurant · The Capitol Grounds

"A Capitol Hill institution since 1960, the Monocle is a known political hangout. Because it's a stone's throw from the Hart and Dirksen Senate buildings, don't be surprised to see politicians eating and drinking there." - Vinciane Ngomsi, Tierney Plumb, Eater Staff
