[quote=Anonymous]Expecting great food because you spend money on it (and really $15 for an entree, as many PPs have said, is not exactly "wow" territory) is like expecting a great shirt because you spend money on it. It's not necessarily good because it's expensive. Does the "high rating" come from someplace that is really just pushing advertisers? A friend or acquaintance who might not know much about food? Zagats (seriously, a 25 for food at In'n'Out burger should let you know about their standards there)? DC in particular I agree is blah for food. I go based on large numbers of solid recommendations and price is only one factor. Price determines the decor, possibly service and "foofiness" but not necessarily the food. The most expensive, super highly rated restaurant in my city (not DC) is honestly meh. I have a gift certificate for it and can't even bring myself to go for free. It's just how it is. [/quote]
