I second Gadsby's tavern. It is unique to this area. And not too expensive. We do lots of events there. Office just did a dinner at the wharf on Tues..not so great. We have done Warehouse as well, great but $$.

2PM on Saturday and you'd already started; have you no restraint? I don't touch a drop till 3:00.

Definitely gonna check out Bastille. If you're into French, La Cote D'Or in Falls Church (near EFC Metro) is also really good.

Joe Theismann's--you can't be serious.
