Editorial reviews from the web (5)

Chef-owner Drew Trautmann's "clever use of interesting", locally sourced ingredients distinguishes the "outstanding" New American plates that emerge from his Woodley Park kitchen, to be served in a rustic dining room with brick walls and engaging artifacts; it's a bit expensive, but imbued with a warm "neighborhood feel" that "encourages folks to return."

Where to Avoid Restaurant Week Insanity

The sun rises way too late and sets way too early; the weather is chilly and gray, and the holidays are a distant, hazy memory. These can only mean one thing: Restaurant Week has arrived.

The critic also points out that the arrival of District Kitchen...

Tom Sietsema Awards Three Stars to Little Serow

Sietsema walks you through the procedures of Little Serow: it's family-style, no substitutions, show up as early as possible as there are no reservations. He describes the fish cakes as "a revelation," the pork ribs as tender and the flavors as leaving a "trail of pleasure on the palate." [WaPo]
