Lonely Planet review

Set in a welcoming Federal row house, 1789 is well known to Georgetown students as the place to take your visiting parents (or rather, have them take you). Chef Ris Lacoste uses local, seasonal produce and game to create new twists on American classics, such as rabbit and sweetbreads and soft-shell crabs with corn pudding. You won't pass up dessert if you catch a glimpse of the pastry chefs working in the front window next door. Upstairs you will find the students' favorite drinking spot, Tombs.
