Back on the subject of places for dinner, a few more suggestions. For those who always think the best items on the restaurant are the appetizers, Jaleo's (a funky little tapas restaurant) and Zaytinia (a funky large mezzes restaurant) are great. Both are near the Gallery Place metro, and I've been to both with large groups.

If you like Asian fusion, Ten Penh (at 10th and Pennsylvania) is outstanding, as is Asia Nora (at 23d and M). Indebleu (also near the Gallery Place metro) is a little pricey but out of this world.
