So I was willing to work hard to get something really good. I tried to get a reservation in a half dozen other places I preferred over this one, but all of them were full up for Friday night at 6:30. Finally, I settled for this place, in spite of its OK but uninspiring reviews. And when I showed up, the interior \u2013 yikes \u2013 it reminded me of a Holiday Inn dining room in Akron, Ohio. The clientele \u2013 don\u2019t ask. And yet . . . the food here was quite good. <\/p>\n<p>I had the best scallops I&#8217;d eaten in years. The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eatingdisorderpro.com\/2012\/06\/27\/what-exactly-is-amish-chicken\/\">Amish chicken<\/a> was quality as well, and I enjoyed the meat plate. The cheese plate was boring but it had . . . my favorite goat cheese (chevrot). This place has about zero originality, and yet . . . a lot of the food tastes good. I don\u2019t know if I can quite recommend it, and I don\u2019t know if I&#8217;ll end up going back, but I give it a thumbs up, sort of, kind of, but I can\u2019t deny it was much more enjoyable than the now-spoiled, overly salted <a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/?p=2645\">Le Diplomate<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3 class='related_post_title'>Related Posts:<\/h3><ul class='related_post'><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/peter-chang-maclean\/\" title=\"Peter Chang MacLean\">Peter Chang MacLean<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/chloe\/\" title=\"Chloe\">Chloe<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/le-diplomate\/\" title=\"Le Diplomate\">Le Diplomate<\/a><\/li><\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ris, web site, 2275 L Street NW, Washington, DC, 202-730-2500 (Metro Trip Planner &#8211; opens in new window) [Zagat | WaPo | Washingtonian | City Paper | Ylp | Don Rockwell | Gayot] I went here one evening after a &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/ris\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[54,7,106],"tags":[1083,1081,1080,794,1084,1079,1085,1082],"class_list":["post-3101","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-american","category-dc","category-gwufoggy-bottom","tag-amish-chicken","tag-chevrot","tag-goat-cheese","tag-le-diplomate","tag-nawddmah3bm","tag-ris","tag-ris-lacoste","tag-scallops"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3101","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3101"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3101\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3107,"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3101\/revisions\/3107"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3101"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3101"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3101"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
