The Best French Restaurants In DC - Washington DC - The Infatuation

"It takes more than your average syrah to impress Washingtonians, and the people behind this slender Mt. Vernon Square all-day bistro know that. The wine list at Petite Cerise goes deep, and while the Chablis and Champagnes are excellent, come here for the wines that aren’t as free flowing beyond France’s borders, like trousseau, grolleau noir, and pineau d’aunis. We love the bar for a first date, the tables for a second, and, if you make it to date number three, know that Petite Cerise does an excellent brunch, too (don’t skip the buckwheat crepes)." - madeline weinfield
