Step into Le Diplomate, a lively French bistro on 14th Street where the charm of Paris meets comforting classics like steak frites and rich French onion soup.
"It really doesn’t get more “DC brunch” than Le Diplomate. This recreation of a traditional French brasserie is always packed, so definitely do make that reservation. The 14th Street staple has a ton of seating options, both inside and out, and a brunch menu that, naturally, includes steak frites. Get an order of that as you debate whether you also need some buttermilk pancakes or a croque madame for the table." - mekita rivas, omnia saed, tristiana hinton
