Rye Bunny
New American
Drinks come to you while you're still in line, which tells you something about the priorities here. Rye Bunny is a counter-order, full-service-at-the-table comfort food spot in Adams Morgan, the kind of place where fried chicken arrives with chili jam and the pasta changes with whatever's good right now. The menu roams freely, seasonal and a little playful, without ever feeling like it's trying to impress you about it.
