We went to La Ciccia on 30th and Church last night (nabbed a same-day reservation). Superb Sardinian food, informative waiter, cute little space, excellent wine list (though not cheap). $160 + tip for the 4 of us, with 2 appetizers, 2 glasses of wine, a side vegetable dish. Recommended!

You do realize that almost half of the tables are for walk in, yes?
Their online system allows for 60 day advance booking, so yes, that 1 date in late December could very well have been it. And FYI - it's gone now.
Call, you may have better luck than online.

Is it easy to get to Pasion from downtown without a car?
A question on Slanted Door-have always wanted to go but never seem to get there. Is it still considered good? I see very mixed reviews on it. Thanks

Yestravel -- I had lunch at the Slanted Door a couple weeks ago. It was packed! The food was delicious but the restaurant was really noisy, which I considered a big drawback. After the lunch crowd thinned out a bit it was much more enjoyable.

@aprillacs --Thanks, i hate loud places. Still debating whether to go there or elsewhere. After being in VN, where I know you also traveled to, it's hard to match the food stateside. Also, we do have a large VN population and several very good VN restaurants in the DC area. Too many choices...

IF the weather is nice go to the take out part of Slanted Door and get you meal to go and eat outside.

@Debit, think we have eaten at Out the Door and probably didn't realize it was related to the Slanted Door. that might be a great option for lunch when we got to the Ferry bldg for the market. Thanks again for more info.

I liked--didn't love--Rich Table. I think the dishes at State Bird can be hit or miss ( have been twice), but you can order so many and not get stuffed and it's not particularly expensive and it's fun...I'd go back certainly. AQ:I've been three times. First time excellent. Second time for the tasting with wine pairings, good not great and some real service missteps. Third time a la carte--edging toward meh, I probably will not return.
I didn't think Poesia was good (my pasta was way overcooked!), but they are very charming and so is the room. I wanted to love it. Maybe an off night?
Agree that Outerlands is v. Good but not sure sure I'd trek out there as a tourist.
