Restaurants in Washington

Bizzeria is Washington's only wood-fired pizzeria with Levantine mezze, raw dishes, charcuterie — practical for late-night or casual group meals when farm-to-table spots close early. Booking is easy, pricing mid-range, the format works for solo bar seating or sharing plates. If you want sharper execution, drive to New Haven; if you want variety in the Litchfield Hills, this covers the gap.

Brasero Atlántico brings Argentinian asado to rural Connecticut, offering wood-fired meats and family-style portions in a casual, neighborhood setting. The cooking is competent, the format is straightforward, reservations are easy to secure. Best for groups of four or more who want smoke, char, fat-forward flavors without driving to the city, though it lacks the polish and depth of wine or service you would find at a dedicated steakhouse.
