    Default DC/NOVA restauarant recommendation?

    My team at work goes out a few times a year for a nice restaurant outing in the DC/NOVA area. Looking for either a cool experience/something new, and any recommendations would be awesome as I'm looking to book something for next week. These are the ones we've already done:
    • Mini Bar
    • Citronelle
    • Chima
    • Central
    • Rays The Steak
    • Ruth's Chris
    • Morton's
    • BLT Steak
    • Charlie Palmer
    • Clyde's
    • Lauberge Chez François

    How about The Capital Grille? My wife and I love the place. It's right on Penn. Ave. and has a great selection of Single Malts as well. And the wine selection is good as well.

    I'll mention it to the team, but I was planning on doing Capital Grille next time I was in Vegas (November for SEMA). Any other recommendations?

    Rosa Mexicanas is a fantastic place(Its right across from the Verizon center), Love Bodega in Georgetown but might be to small of a place for a large group.. Theres also the Palms both in Midtown DC and Tysons Corner..

    Komi has a great national reputation for modern Greek tasting menu - probably won't get in w/ < 1 week though. haven't been so not sure if it's team-worthy or more 2-4-person type place.

    My company has held their big meetings at the Chophouse, good food when I went. They also have a room in the basement for gatherings and such. That's where we held our meeting.

    Also, check out the Carlyle in Shirlington. Right off of 395 in VA.

    Depending on how much you wanna spend, you could check out the Oceanaire on 12th and F, NW.
