"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
"Visit the tavern at this Midwestern import for a steam pot full of rope-raised mussels in a tomato and saffron broth ($23). Or, try them off the raw bar on the tavern’s signature seafood towers." - Travis Mitchell
