Great ambiance and food. A classic go to restaurant in DC if you want something a little classier

La Chaumiere provides an excellent French dining experience, offering a variety of delicious dishes such as trout with mangles, salmon in a puff cage, and calf shoulder stew. The service is professional and attentive, making diners feel comfortable and wanting to return.

Despite some hiccups in service, the overall dining experience at La Chaumiere is a must-try for those looking for classic French cuisine in the Washington DC area.
