"The lobby of Dupont’s Kimpton Banneker Hotel is home to a sexy Parisian brasserie lined in mosaic-tiled flooring, mod artwork, and interior that opens up to a breezy patio. French classics done well under chef Walter Silva’s watch include escargots, steak au poivre, and raclette cheese, plus impressive charcuterie boards and modern takes on the cuisine." - Vinciane Ngomsi, Tierney Plumb
