A real gem in Washington DC. The seafood crepe gratin was to die for and is probably the most ordered appetizer. The seafood filling was cooked to perfection with a kick of hot spices, and the crepe itself was light and fluffy. Just one of these could suffice for a lunch entrée. Their crab cakes were full of lump crab meat and not a lot of filler. They were great, but no different than the crab cakes at most DC restaurants. The side of red beans and rice was delightful. Very spicy, very filling. The warm raisin bread pudding is easily the best dessert on the menu. The only con I found was regarding the drinks. They were quite expensive, and quite ordinary. I was really disappointed they didn’t offer any Riesling by the glass.
