The Hit List: New DC Restaurants To Try Right Now - Washington DC - The Infatuation
"This Greek restaurant is one of the most romantic spots we’ve ever been to, mostly thanks to the dozens of large candles lining the dimly lit front hall and bar. And with shareable small plates like the must-order melizanosalata and tirokafteri, you and your date will be swooning over each other (and the food) before the end of the bread course. But Philotimo is also a great space for a girls night out or family dinner where you can split bottles of Greek wines or order a round of craft cocktails including the Graydon Carter, which tastes like an elevated mimosa. Grab the octopodi and the mantia, which are stuffed veal dumplings served with a brown butter sauce that you’ll want to pass around the table for everyone to smell." - Tristiana Hinton, Omnia Saed
