Michelin selection.
Good standard. Our best addresses.

Café Riggs is definitely a brunch spot to have on your DC list! The beautiful setting, elevated atmosphere, and menu make it a great option for a weekend brunch with friends, a date, or a special occasion. I started with the Petit Plateau, which came with a half-dozen oysters, half-dozen shrimp cocktail, cucumber and caviar, and chips. If you love seafood, this is such a fun way to start the meal and had a great variety of flavors and textures. The Mussels were another favorite — garlic, chili, white wine, and a baguette for soaking up all that delicious broth. Definitely don’t skip the bread! For an entrée, I tried the Steak Frites, featuring a 14 oz NY striploin with béarnaise. You can also replace the steak with an egg your way for $3, which is a nice option if you’re looking for something a little lighter. But the standout for me was the Buttermilk Pancakes. They come with blueberries and maple butter, and I can honestly say they were probably some of the best pancakes I’ve had in DC. Fluffy, flavorful, and absolutely worth ordering. And if you have room for dessert, I’d recommend the cheesecake or crème brûlée. Both are great options to finish off brunch on a sweet note. Overall, Café Riggs is a beautiful spot for a leisurely weekend brunch. Whether you’re planning a girls’ brunch, date, or just looking for somewhere new to try in DC, I’d definitely add this one to the list. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Meal type: Brunch
