Sietsema is a vociferous defender of Rasika.

Yes. We finally went last year and were SO confused. The food was fine. That’s it. Just fine.

Sietsema loves Ruthie’s All Day, which I think is OK but way too much smoked/BBQ for non-carnivores to be a truly great restaurant. I feel like I have been in a smoker when I leave.

Got the worst food poisoning from Le Dip. Never again.

Everyone except tourist hates founding farmers. It’s rated appropriately.

FF was good when I moved here in 2008. I went in 2021 with friend visiting from TN and her friends from work. They loved it. I am not sure if food just really, really sucks where they live or if people just can’t admit the food and service is on par with a Denny’s in Ohio after paying what must seem expensive if you don’t live here and waiting 30 min past your reservation.

Teds bulletin. Used to be good. But they expanded to Reston and soon to Ashburn, and it’s like “really?”

The FF in Foggy Bottom has never been good. We had so many terrible work events there in the early 2000s.

You must have been really drunk at those events because you weren’t at FF in the “early 2000s”. FF opened in 2008.

2008 is still the early 2000s. I didn’t work in DC before 2008 so very much aware of where I was. But go on, defend that shitty place. LOL.
