Hi All, I moved away from DC in the last year, but will be back in town briefly on a stopover from the airport on a Saturday night in the next month. We won't be available for Dinner until 10:30 or later, but I'm looking for a fun, late-night dinner spot (preferably on the red line or close to it - will be staying at at friends near friendship heights) on Saturday. We're just looking for some place that will still be serving good food at that hour - I didn't do late-night dining too much when I lived there, so I'm at a loss except for Bistro Du Coin, and am not too excited by that... Any new place that's worth checking out for late-night? (at the bar is totally fine, but don't want to be the only ones eating) Thanks!

I was at Pete's on Saturday and noticed that they are celebrating their one-year anniversary today and are offering full pizzas all day for half price!

Long-time lurker, first-time poster here... Went here on Sunday night and had a great meal. This was my second visit to Cashion's and I left wondering why I don't think of coming here more often when I'm looking for a nice dinner out (especially since I live close). We took my parents who were visiting from out of town and we all had a great time from start to finish. We started off by sharing the Risi i Bisi (Risotto with peas) and an arugula salad with beets, mozzarella and boquerones. The risotto was cooked perfectly and we devoured it quickly. The salad was perfect for the sweltering day outside... lightly dressed with wonderful fresh ingredients. For my entree, I had the sablefish with fennel and citrus (orange and grapefruit) segments. The sablefish was perfectly cooked, and it was nice to have the fennel and citrus to counterbalance the richness of the buttery fish. I also tried and enjoyed my husband's lamb with berber spice rub. For dessert, we all split the waffles with orange ice cream and chocolate sorbet. The chocolate sorbet was super rich, almost like chocolate sauce, and the waffles were crisp and tasty. We were lucky we didn't fight over who got the last bite. I would go back again just for a drink at the bar and the waffles for dessert in a heartbeat. The service was great the entire night, and I'm sure I'll be back again soon, probably to check out the late night menu at the bar.
