15 Best Restaurants and Bars Near the National Zoo, According to Eater Editors | Eater DC
"Around since 1986, Woodley Park’s modern American staple was added to the Michelin Guide in recent years for its humble atmosphere and flavorful food. Take a seat at the bar downstairs or head up to the dining room for dishes like broccolini with black garlic Caesar dressing, rack of lamb topped with salsa verde, and crispy fried oysters with pickled cauliflower. Iranian native Namdar took over the Woodley Park restaurant in 2022 with two former Graham Georgetown colleagues. Distance from zoo: 0.5 miles." - Tierney Plumb
