Editorial Review

Disregard the stainless-steel corporate kitchen and restaurant chain-esque uniform dècor, and prepare your palette for farm-fresh Southern succulence, aka thigh-expanding morsels of heaven. Though its "farm-to-fork, we're-a-farmhouse" creed assuages some body-damning guilt (eat fresh, get fat!), it's the home-cooked flavor of the dishes that really elicits sheer surrender. Signatures include the lobster mac 'n' cheese, fried chicken and waffles, and cinnamon sugar-laced bacon lollipops. Oh, and their basket of beignets. It's DC. That's the South, right? Dig in.
