The food is good and two people can eat there for about $50-$60 including one glass of wine each. The restaurant next door, Lavandou, is supposed to be good too. It is the only French restaurant in DC that is dedicated to the cuisine of a single region of France (Provencal), according to P. Richman. I believe that it has reasonable prices too. Of course there's always Au Pied De Chochon in Georgetown. It's not as fancy as the two mentioned above, but it's open 24 hours and it has a laid back atmosphere. Bistro Francais is also in Georgetown and has an early bird special most nights. The special includes salad or soup, an entree, dessert and coffee (I think), and runs around $30-$40 for two. On Veteran's Day I tried a crepe place called Crepe Ala Carte on Connecticut Ave just south of Dupont Circle. The food was nice and fresh, and the menu had an appealing list of crepes and sandwiches, but I thought it was a bit expensive given the portion sizes. In absolute terms, however, it wasn't expensive. Lunch for two was $20 including tax, tip, etc., and I think the dinner prices are the same. Anybody else have other suggestions, or comments about these places?
