Westend Bistro by Eric Ripert

$$, New American, Foggy Bottom


Fodor's Review:

Where else but the Ritz-Carlton Hotel would you find the chef of New York City's award-winning restaurant Le Bernardin? Eric Ripert is wowing the swells of Foggy Bottom with comfort food such as fish burgers with saffron aïoli and a salad of local greens gussied up with truffle vinaigrette. Two caveats: side dishes must be ordered a la carte, and the handmade cocktails are a skyscraping $12 per glass. The pomegranate-spiked West End cocktail and a tangerine tequila named after the chef are particularly irresistible.
