The 2004 DiRoNA Guide to Distinguished Restaurants of North America
1789 Restaurant
Tucked away on one of Georgetown's quiet residential streets, 1789 feels like an elegant country inn. Beyond the curbside valet of the two-story Federal townhouse, the setting is refined yet cozy, with Limoges and crystal-clad tables before a blazing fire. Chef Ris Lacoste's seasonal American menu has charmed critics and connoisseurs alike. Every bit as tempting are the fresh breads and desserts by Pastry Chef Joslyn Bergmann. Dinner specialties include salmon and caviar cocktail, roasted rack of lamb with feta potatoes and merlot sauce, and Nantucket bay scallops.
