This quaint, bright yellow townhouse stands out from the grand marble surroundings of Capitol Hill—but it fits right in as a go-to lunch or dinner spot for local politicians. Since the restaurant opened in 1960, it's been host to senators, representatives, and lobbyists looking to escape the Capitol complex’s cafeteria food in favor of old-school steakhouse fare. Today, the authentic restaurant still offers a straightforward menu with a selection of steaks and burgers and seafood dishes like Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes and Littleneck Clam Linguine.
