Fodor's Expert Review The Avenue

$$ Upper Northwest American

This inviting, all-American bar and restaurant is right near the D.C./Maryland border; brick and wood make the space feel cozy and warm. Seafood, sandwiches, and hefty salads highlight the menu. The Avenue is three floors; the top floor is used for banquets and the lower floor broadcasts sports games on TV. The restaurant also operates the Capitol Crab food truck and catering company, serving seafood delicacies that often make it onto The Avenue menu.
