Sorry to bring back this thread, but my 2 year anniversary is coming up. I read a lot of people here enjoy Citronelle. How much should I be looking to spend for 2 at this restaurant? What makes this place so good?

 

Menu w/ fixed pricing is here - http://www.citronelledc.com/menus.cfm

I think fixed price menus are good for a special occassion as you get to try some really good food over multiple courses, and no one feels any potential pressure about ordering multiple courses or expensive dishes, as its all set. The food is great, and on one visit when I closed the rest., we got to meet Michele, his maitre d, and sommelier as we were leaving because they were winding down over some scotch and cigars in the lounge by the front door - very cool.

As good as I think Citronelle is, I thought 2941 in Falls Church was amazing by comparison.

 

I dont see any prices on the website, but I will say this...any place that requires me to wear a jacket to eat...they dont have to post the prices...cuz I probably cant afford it anyway...

"At Our Restaurant, we dont discriminate, but Our Prices Do"...LMAO

 

just to add to the topic since I just recently joined this forum, but have any of you guys tried Fogo De Chao? If any of you guys like steak or meat, I recommended it. Its located in DC.

BTW, whos korean that knows all those korean spots?

 

I haven't been to Fogo, although a good friend raved about their unlimited filet. I think I'm over the whole "all you can eat" scene, and now prefer quality over quantity... I'll gladly take a brown bag of 5 Guys fries over unlimited baskets of Red Robin's fries.

 

So what your really saying is that you would rather have your heart stop and start back up again than just some high blood pressure and maybe a headache. I love Five Guys like anyone else, but I can only go there once a year

 

chipotle, cheap and fast

LOLOLOLOL DAT SHYT IS SO TRU. I HAD FIVE GUYS ONCE WHEN IT 1ST OPENED AT MY SCHOOL ON GEORGIA AVE. MANG I WAS EATIN THE BURGER AND NOTHIN' BUT GREASE WAS JUST RUNNIN' DOWN MY HAND. I TOLD MYSELF NEVA AGAIN WILL I EAT HERE AND GIVE MYSELF A HEART ATTACK, I'M JUST GLAD SOMEONE ELSE SEES IT THE SAME WAY I DO.

 

ya 5 guys is instant heart attack...i felt my arteries constricting while i ate my burger....its def. a one meal a day type of place...once you eat 5 guys you wont eat another meal for at least 24 hrs..sometimes longer...

 

I think Qdoba & Baja Fresh is better, but mostly Qdoba

 

That is F'ing sad that almost eveyone agrees that this is a bad place to eat. We should write to the Surgeon General or something. LOL
