This might just be one of the Capitol's most well-known dining rooms, housed at the corner of Lafayette Square and just a stone’s throw from the White House lawn. Furthermore, it has been reimagined as a blast of color, with blue walls, gold-patterned banquettes and vibrant artwork. The space hums with guests gathered around linen-robed tables.The menu offers a blend of French and Japanese cuisines, with starters ranging from gougères to gyoza and main dishes including more French-leaning items like steak au poivre and Japanese-influenced dishes like tamari glazed chicken.
