"This one-room restaurant inside a Georgetown row home feels more like the set of Rent than what it actually is: a little known, under-the-radar knockout a floor above the tony champagne bar Apéro. The boho fairy lights and Toulouse-Lautrec posters might follow the interior design direction of the quad sophomore year, but the food overshadows everything else. Dinner is four or six courses and inspired by a rotating cast of cultural characters (the current menu is Prince). Splash out for the cocktail pairing that stays close to the theme—for Prince, that naturally includes a Raspberry Beret dessert and a U Got The Look vodka-based drink." - madeline weinfield
