  1. Café Riggs

    Contemporary French

    Gleaming brass, marble, and velvet Art Deco booths set the register at Café Riggs, a contemporary French brasserie inside the Riggs Washington DC hotel on F Street. The historic dining room pulls a sharp-suited lunch crowd and after-work drinkers in equal measure, and the waitstaff moves with the quiet efficiency that makes both feel attended to. Classic French technique drives the menu, and the chocolate soufflé with Grand Marnier caramel is the kind of ending that makes you linger.

    One honor, in evidence:
