"Walking into Apéro in Georgetown feels like stumbling into an impossibly chic Parisian bistro stocked with enough wine and caviar to outlast a particularly bourgeoisie apocalypse. This French spot has a substantial wine program of more than 700 selections, specializing in—you guessed it—Champagne. Our essential small plates include the deviled eggs (bacon and chives sprinkled atop) and the fromage trio, served with a piquant blood-orange compote and baguette. For the main course, the beef bourguignon consistently delivers, thanks to the creamy robuchon potatoes and robust cabernet reduction, and the caramel bread pudding with a house espresso martini is our can’t-miss dessert combo." - Mekita Rivas
