The DC Link & Dine Restaurants - Washington DC - The Infatuation

"DC doesn't have many casual French restaurants—most of them cater to the special occasion crowd, with the sort of price points and impossible reservations that might have fueled the French Revolution. That’s why we love Bistrot Du Coin. The nearly 25-year-old spot feels like it was pulled right out of the French countryside and dropped into the middle of Dupont Circle. Its narrow dining room, warm yellow glow, checkered tablecloths, and antique bicycles hanging on the walls feel more timeless than anything else we’ve found on Connecticut Avenue. Order the ravioli with cream sauce and gruyere, and pretend your next move is a casual stroll in the countryside." - Team Infatuation
