Washington D.C. Restaurant Guide



An endearing neighborhood in northwest Washington DC, Cleveland Park is the perfect place to find everything from critically acclaimed restaurants to traditional home cooked meals. Along the famous Connecticut Avenue, Cleveland Park’s main thoroughfare, restaurants of all genres eagerly await the throngs of DC tourists and offer promises of world-class cuisine and unique settings. While contemporary American cuisine seems to rule the dining world, the introduction of fusion styles has drastically influenced the meals, offering a little something extra alongside tradition. With a restaurant run by the former White House chef Frank Ruta, a restaurant hailed by USA Today as one of the "best restaurants in America," and a restaurant that serves passion on a plate at a rooftop terrace overlooking the city, Cleveland Park clearly isn’t lacking in the areas of extraordinary or delicious.
