"Capitol Hill is always a great area for catching up with friends, since there are so many options to choose from. When you want a quietish place you can get into easily, try Harry’s Fine Foods. The inside feels like an old-fashioned parlor crossed with a general store, and the food ranges from lasagna to grilled cheese to crudo to a f*cking great burger (with equally great fries). Aside from some $24 short ribs, the most expensive dish here is 17 bucks. Oh, and the negroni situation is fantastic." - aimee rizzo
