I didn't know they closed! Used to love it like ten years so
but didn't enjoy it the few times I went on the last few years.

Les Halles. Only because I lust after Bourdain and saw him there once or twice.

oops I forgot Moby Dick House of Kabob, downtown Silver Spring

Red Sea! I remember this from my childhood. None of the ethiopian food I eat now can compare to the memory of that restaurant in my mind.

Blob's Park

Yes yes yes. Not as a restaurant, mind you, but I miss dancing there. Where else are you going to get your polka on?

+1 on this. They were the only place that served migas.

Uncle Julio's has migas at weekend brunch. And it doesn't suck. I hate Uncle Julio's, but their migas is actually good.

Red Sage
The Mr. Henry's near GWU. (More of a drinking spot than restaurant, but their hummus and falafel were good.)
Whatever the place was that was in Kinkead's spot before Kinkead's.
For that matter, Kinkead's.

I miss the Zebra Room at Wisconsin and Macomb (no replacement there has had much staying power) and the Roma (with garden) on Connecticut Ave. in Cleveland Park.

Surprised many of the Bethesda people on here didn't mention Sir Walter Raleigh.

It's fairly recent, but Zest Bistro on Barrack's Row. We went on the day it opened and probably at least once a month for most of its run. Solid food, a lovely owner, and a friendly neighborhood vibe. We haven't found a go-to neighborhood place since it closed.

I also once loved the food at TenPenh and, what feels like a lifetime ago, drinking at Polly's.

Green Papaya on Elm St in Bethesda.

Red Sage, downtown.

There are a lot of restaurants/bars that I have not gone to in years, but I liked knowing they were around: Childe Harold, AV Ristorante, Millie and Al's, Fish Wings and Tings, Shakey's Pizza... just nostalgia for my younger days.
