Define your threshold for restaurant; fancy sit down or just anything worth a drive?

Thanks! I’ve actually been to the corner pantry it is good and so is the place on the other side of the parking lot

If you’re looking for good BBQ big bad wolf is definitely better than mission.

I’ll have to check out the block

I only know of minibar and Sushi Nakazawa in DC and Inn at Little Washington in VA which you already listed. Otherwise, you're heading to NYC.
