Lutèce

Since opening the doors of its cozy, uber romantic space, Lutece has made quite the splash within the DC culinary scene and beyond. Seasonal fare, natural wine, exposed brick and pressed tin ceilings set the scene for an impressive date night without the stuffiness. For the full experience, opt for a leisurely date night tasting through the chef’s prix-fixe menu with a wine pairing, or pop in on an earlier date and order a la carte from the ever-changing selections.

From Sourdough Focaccia to Rabbit Leg and Kaluga Caviar—this nouveau French bistro will make you say “oui” to more. Dishes at Lutèce often feel more like art than food, as chef Matt Conroy puts intricate detail into each dish. With a whole slate of French-inspired fare to choose from, you’ll feel lucky you don’t have to choose because the restaurant has a $75 tasting menu that covers four courses.
