Just steps from the Smithsonian National Zoo, Marriott Wardman-Park and Omni Shoreham, LiLLiES Restaurant & Bar is a family-owned restaurant which serves a mix of traditional Italian and Mediterranean cuisine with a contemporary edge.

When the weather is warm, diners can relax around mosaic tables on the terrace patio. On cooler days, the hardwood floors, candlelight and exposed brick inside make for a snug retreat. Brunch is served on both Saturdays and Sundays, and offers options for health-conscious patrons, such as a Greek yogurt parfait, and for those looking to indulge—say, in the Nutella-smothered French toast.

    Thank you all for accommodating 13 guests from DAV Chapter 70 all the way from Texas. We loved your restaurant, our meals were amazing and we were so happy we got to visit. We appreciate your staff for being so polite, cheerful, and so wonderful to talk to. Beautiful place to enjoy dinner.

    I can't give a fair review for my recent visit. There was a large wedding party taking most of the seating, and, of course, conversing. The wait staff was good, though. Once the party broke up, service with returned to its good self.
