Daily dispatches on the Washington, DC area's food, restaurant and dining scene.

FeedBack: Bibiana

This week, we stopped by the new Italian restaurant Bibiana to find out what diners think of the latest venture from Ashok Bajaj, the man behind 701, the Oval Room, Bombay Club, Rasika, Ardeo, and Bardeo.

By Alejandro Salinas   Published Thursday, October 01, 2009

We’re only half joking when we say Ashok Bajaj is a modern-day Midas. Much of what the local restaurateur touches—or, in this case, opens—seems to turn to gold. At least that’s the impression we left with after talking to customers outside his newest place, downtown DC’s Bibiana. Among those interviewed: Motion Picture Association of America president Dan Glickman. What did he think of his meal? You’ll have to watch our video to find out.

Tried Bibiana yesterday for lunch. Sleek decor, warm welcome upon arrival. Service was professional. The featured branzino was outstanding and beautifully presented. A must try for dinner.
