Rare Steakhouse in D.C. delivers an upscale dining experience with a classic vibe, featuring a range of prime dry-aged steaks and a casual tavern with mouthwatering burgers and Wisconsin-style cheese curds.
"Rare comes to Washington by way of Wisconsin (hence the delicious fried cheese curds on the tavern menu). The dual restaurant reads as a casual tavern downstairs and a formal dining room up top. Some of the choicest cuts include the Delmonico steak and dry-aged New York strip; there’s also a charcuterie bar downstairs." - Tierney Plumb, Eater Staff
