I'll miss the breakfast items, but we were just marveling the other night that after all these years A&J might just be the most *consistent* excellent restaurant around these parts. Year after year, meal after meal, the quality virtually never wavers (yet it never seems by-the-numbers or cookie-cutter, either!). Kudos to you, Debbie--don't know quite how you do it, but you're certainly onto something, and we're the very grateful beneficiaries.

The fava bean and eggplant dips now on the menu are wonderful ... and the french fries you can order to eat while you wait are the best fries you'll ever have had.

I haven't been to Daikaya in a long while, but I'm fairly confident that Menya Hosaki (where I dine frequently) is the best ramen in the area by a far stretch. Open only for dinner W-F and lunch on Tuesdays.

In my experience (including a very recent, superb meal at i Sodi), I find i Sodi much better and more consistent than VC, FWIW.

Without yet having been to the new location, I'm very confident in recommending Superiority Burger. -

No doubt, ("starting at") $2112 might sound like a lot for a "family meal," but hey, it comes with breakfast, too!

Go early (and often)--everything's delicious and, as Eater notes, it (proverbially) flies off the shelves. (And it's only a block or two from the best barbeque in the DMV, at 2Fifty.) https://dc.eater.com/2023/1/18/23560803/sourdough-flies-off-the-shelves-at-marylands-buzziest-new-bakery

Reveler's, which had the bad fortune of opening just before the pandemic, is running on all cylinders, FWIW. Two dishes on the current menu that you really ought not miss: rigatoni with spicy octopus, tomato, chickpeas, and olives crispy duck leg confit with garlic sausage, cranberry beans, and frisée

Wow, the online recs for Zeneli are otherworldly. It appears, however, to serve a more traditional Neapolitan pizza, as opposed to a New Haven style.

Yep: Baan Siam is the choice. (Former chef at Beau Thai.) Carry-out has consistently been excellent.

There are now 49 locations of Nobu. For some reason I suspect a meal at one of them wouldn't be *quite* as satisfying and exciting as the meal I had at Matsuhisa in the late 1980s.
