So how do you know when Jean Louis is in the kitchen? My last meal there was pedestrian. When you pay over $600 for 4 people with modest wines you are entitled to the best,but Mr. Palladin has too many other interests and was not minding his flagship that night. Service was indifferent too. I used to consider JL excellent but overpriced, and only ate there every year or two, but I doubt if I will go back. The best restaurant in any Washington is The Inn, but it is in Washington, VA. The best dinners I hAve had recently in the metro area are the wine tasting dinners at the Tivoli which are held about once a month, advanced reservations required. I believe the next is 22 September. Usually $55 to $65 for four courses and six wines.
