12 Washington is our secret little neighborhood bistro that’s been serving up great food and smiles for around 20 years. Food is great and if you want to substitute a veggie or want something not on the menu they will go out of their way to substitute or whip up something special for you. Escargot is my favorite appetizer but there are quite a few starters to choose from. If you’re into seafood, it’s always fresh and prepared correctly. The crispy duck is an excellent choice as well. The filet is great, they cut them from the tenderloin strip so if you want it medium or medium rare be sure to tell them to cut it from the center and not give you the tapered end piece. Sides are creative and fresh, they used to have puréed peas & onions which was great however, the last time I went they didn’t have it so the kitchen sautéed some fresh spinach for me instead. Bread is always an important indicator to me as some restaurants think of this as an evil necessity, at 12 the baguette rolls are always served hot and fresh. Wine is a bit pricy but if you’re smiling nice and cordial to the waiters/owners sometimes you’ll get a glass on the house or at least a good over pour. Deserts are awesome try the apple torte with ice cream. This is the kind of place you have to find as they do not advertise.
Pros: Awesome service and consistantly good food - MDR's best kept secret!
Cons: Thinking.... Thinking... Oh yeah one time the butter tasted a bit freezer burned.
