Crave the ginger chicken from your favorite Vietnamese restaurant but don't feel like going out? The place might deliver. These restaurants--all from The Washingtonian's 100 Best Bargain Restaurants or 100 Very Best Restaurants (marked with a *)--have their own drivers. Most deliver within three miles or so from the restaurant. Almost all have Web sites where you can see a menu, or they will fax you one. Many top restaurants not listed here deliver through services like Takeout Taxi--but for that, you'll pay a service fee. These restaurants do not charge for delivery, although they ask that you tip the driver. DC Restaurants That Deliver Cafe Divan, 1834 Wisconsin Ave., Georgetown; 202-338-1747; cafedivan.com.
