I am very much looking forward to my trip to DC. My two restaurant
selections are Butterfield 9 and Obelisk. Will I go run at these two
places. I am looking for a real treat and appreciate your insight
and perspective.
Thank you in advance!

I haven't been to either though their reputations are good.  One thing
I'd recommend, and this is for a good place anywhere, is not to go
during a peak time (e.g., like 7pm on Saturday).  I've had much better
food and service when I avoid such times.  I experienced pretty
mediocre food and service at some of the best places in DC at such
times.

Of the places I've been recently I'd recommend Citronelle if you're
looking for another restaurant.  It was very expensive but everything
was perfect.

Obelisk is one of my favorite restaurants, but I don't go there often 
because it requires a lot of advanced planning (make a reservation at least 
a week in advance).  Butterfield 9 is ok, but everytime I've been there, 
it's been full of folks using mobile phones.
