Near the JW Marriot on Penn Ave

Staying here on Monday night and would like a restaurant close-a we are not getting in till after 6pm. Medium priced, ethnic is fine, food needs to be great. Thanks in advance.

    Bistro D'Oc isn't very ethnic, but is such a cozy, relaxed place, I would think it would be just the spot for catching your breath after a flight.

      Add Ceiba to your list - medium priced latin food with carribbean touches. Ten Penh isn't bad for upscale Asian fusion. But I agree with mselectra - if you are willing to walk the few blocks to Penn Quarter you will have dozens of options at all price points, cuisines and types of ambiance.

        Tosca is another good choice, it is near by, it has great Italian food, I am not sure what you consider medium priced though...

          Michel Richard's Central is about two blocks away. If that counts as medium priced it would be perfect. If you can walk a few more blocks, you get to a major restaurant neighborhood, Penn Quarter.
