This Michelin-starred restaurant is fine dining without the pretentious white linen! Every week the menu changes to feature the best local and seasonal ingredients, so if you want to taste the hyper-local flavors of the Mid-Atlantic this is the place to go.

A favorite of the Obama family (who live in the neighborhood), Mintwood Place has an incredible selection of New American food with a fun and family-friendly vibe. The happy hour is a great deal, too! Try the hamburger or pate.
