Congrats to Evening Star Cafe -- they made Washingtonian's list of classic restaurants to visit during DC’s Winter Restaurant Week 2025! @washingtonian: "Twenty eight years ago, the Neighborhood Restaurant Group opened its very first restaurant: this Southern-inspired spot in Del Ray. Its $40 dinner menu features starters like smoked pimento cheese and pickled fried green tomatoes; mains like roast chicken with collards and spaghetti and meatballs; and buttercream-frosted carrot cake or flourless chocolate cake for dessert."
Evening Star and Cheesetique are both participating in DC Restaurant Week -- happening now through Sunday! And the culinary adventure continues -- Alexandria Restaurant Week starts Friday, with 15 participating Del Ray restaurants. #visitdelray #DCRestaurantWeek #supportlocalrestaurants 🎥: @eveningstarva
