French restaurant · Dupont Circle
"Every date night photo you've taken recently has a glow that makes you and your partner look like a couple of ghouls instead of a couple in love. Ditch the unwanted neon sign filter and head to Duck Duck Goose, where the only glow you're getting is from the flickering candles. The French bistro, true to its name, celebrates all things duck, from duck confit in French onion soup to a foie gras burger with duck-fat fries. But the real scene-stealer, ironically, isn’t the duck at all, but the croissant bread pudding. Split an order with your date, and dig into layer upon layer of puff pastry drenched in caramel and chantilly cream." - Omnia Saed, Tristiana Hinton
"If you’re looking for a romantic date night spot, Duck Duck Goose is the place. The restaurant is captivating, with candlelight reflecting off the yellow velvet seats, casting a warm glow throughout the room. The French bistro’s menu, as indicated by the name, is an ode to all things duck. Think french onion soup made with duck confit and a foie gras burger served with duck-fat fries. But the real scene-stealer, ironically, is not the duck at all, but the croissant bread pudding. It comes with layer upon layer of puff pastry drenched in a caramel and chantilly cream and is one of the best bread puddings we’ve ever had. " - Tristiana Hinton, Omnia Saed
"If you’re looking for something more traditional, erring on the romantic side of things for you and your will-they-won’t-they date, Duck Duck Goose is your place. Candle light reflects off the yellow velvet seats at the Dupont Circle restaurant, casting a warm glow throughout the space. While the French bistro’s menu is an ode to all things duck, the real scene-stealer is the croissant bread pudding. It comes with layer upon layer of puff pastry drenched in a caramel and chantilly cream. Split a bottle of wine here, or choose from their selection of zero-proof drinks and all there’s left to do is to cue Tamia’s “I’m So Into You” to cap off the night. " - Omnia Saed

"The cozy Dupont eatery’s French onion soup is simple on its own for $17, but diners can add duck confit for an additional $6." - Vinciane Ngomsi
