Lucky Buns

On December 9, 2023December 9, 2023 By jimsdiningguidesIn Dining, Food, Washington DCLeave a comment

A friend was visiting from out of town and we were having dinner together. He suggested a burger place in Adams Morgan. I soon found out that Lucky Buns has the best burgers in DC.

The Old Ebbitt Grill

On July 21, 2023 By jimsdiningguidesIn Dining, Food, Washington DCLeave a comment

The Old Ebbitt Grill is an iconic Washington DC restaurant, situated right across the street from the White House. I've been meaning to go there for awhile now, and a visit from some relatives provided the opportunity to do so. We quickly found out that the Old Ebbitt Grill lives up to its hype.

The cherry blossoms were blooming in Washington DC and many restaurants were having themed offerings. Looking over the options, one place stood out from the rest. A wine bar on H Street called irregardless. Did it meet my expectations? It exceeded them.

FishScale’s new menu

On March 12, 2023 By jimsdiningguidesIn Dining, Food, Washington DCLeave a comment

FishScale, a restaurant in the Shaw area of DC that specializes in fish burgers, has become one of my go to spots for a bite to eat. I've written about them before, but they recently added some great items to their menu that I want to highlight.

Convivial – DC Restaurant Week 2023

On March 4, 2023March 6, 2023 By jimsdiningguidesIn Dining, Food, Washington DCLeave a comment

For Washington DC's winter restaurant week, I returned to an old favorite. Located one block north of the convention center by Mount Vernon Square, the French restaurant Convivial is always a pleasure.

GCDC Grilled Cheese Bar

On January 4, 2023 By jimsdiningguidesIn Dining, Food, Washington DCLeave a comment

While taking a class, I met a fellow foodie. He highly recommended a gourmet grilled cheese restaurant in downtown DC, just one block past the White House on Pennsylvania avenue. Skeptical, I tried it out. My friend was right, GCDC Grilled Cheese Bar is fantastic!

Mi Vida

Mi Vida has been on my list of restaurants to try ever since the Mexican Ambassador said it was her favorite restaurant in Washington DC. Recently I was in the Waterfront area and took the opportunity to try the place. Mi Vida is as good as the ambassador said.

Mt Desert Island Ice Cream

On June 19, 2022June 20, 2022 By jimsdiningguidesIn Dining, Food, Washington DC2 Comments

I was in Mt Pleasant heading towards a festival when I happened across Mt Desert Island Ice Cream that appeared quite popular. I made note of it and returned after the festival. A sign proudly declares "Fearless Flavor." Mt Desert takes that seriously, as they have flavors that can be found nowhere else. I now have a new favorite ice cream shop.

Chez Lily

I had a meeting with friends in the Mt Vernon Triangle area of Washington DC, and we were looking for a quick bite to eat beforehand. We found a wonderful little coffee shop that was exactly what we were looking for.

Supra and Tabla: Georgian in DC

On June 6, 2021December 31, 2025 By jimsdiningguidesIn Dining, Food, Washington DC2 Comments

Georgian food is one of the more unusual types of cuisines that you can find in DC. Not from the state of Georgia, mind you. Georgia the Eastern European country. Supra has been a main stay of DC for years. But recently the owners managed to open a second restaurant, Tabla. Both serve superb food.
