Buck's Fishing and Camping

We love Buck's. The ambiance is sophisticated rustic. You may be seated at the long communal table in the middle of the dining room. The food is about freshness and solid execution. Buck's ‘World-Famous' Wood-Grilled, Dry-Aged, Prime Sirloin Steak w/ Hand-cut French Fries is a much tastier hunk of meat than you would ever get in filet or New York strip.
Comet Ping Pong
5037 Connecticut Ave NW
Washington, DC 20008
202-364-0404
Gourmet pizza, molasses-braised chicken wings, ping pong tables, arm wrestling, local artists painting on the walls, local musicians performing, and US micro brews on tap. What's not to love? We enjoy the pizza, but wish they contained more than a light sprinkling of the delicious and varied toppings.
