An upscale Mediterranean restaurant with eclectic dishes is about 3 blocks up the road. It would be best to make reservations, although I'm not sure you need them. I haven't been, but the place seems pretty heavily frequented.

3.2/5 stars.
Great ambiance, and only 2 blocks away. The food is pretty decent, and they cater to vegetarians as well. The menu is always changing, so I'd bank on the coffee and the couches and chairs.

3.8/5 stars. Franklin's is an awesome looking family styled brewery about 2 miles away toward Maryland. Just stay on the main avenue (Rhode Island) in front of my house and you will see it on the right. The food is burgers and bar food pretty much.

4.8/5 stars. A great spot if you like ramen. People seem to love it, but it isn't cheap - about $60 for 2. The great news is that you'll be on H St, which is only about 3 miles away. There are tons of food options there and even some entertainment.

4.9/5 stars. In the mood for really great cuisine? Rose's is a great spot, but be prepared to wait a good long time to get your food. They are insanely popular, so plan for at least a 90 minute wait.

This metro is about an 8 minute drive, or a 15 minute bus ride from my home, and you can park there all day for $4.60. To reach the bus stop, go to the top of my block and you will see it diagonally across the street.
