Picture yourself biting into the crispy crust of a French-style baguette, meeting the fluffy, flavorful inner bites of bread. Then, you pick up some cheese and swallow flavors imported directly from France before sipping from your glass of vin de france rosé. Close your eyes and you just might think you’re sitting outside a cafe in Paris. But, no—you’re right here in DC at Le Diplomate.
Le Diplomate channels “a sweeping sense of European drama” in a blend of cuisine and design that pays homage to traditional French culture. Their outdoor dining area and interior alike are as if they’ve been pulled from the streets of Paris.
Stop by for lunch, dinner, or brunch, saving room for dessert and a glass of wine for your ultimate French-style experience. Enjoy seafood classics, hors d’oeuvres, or Parisian classics such as salade niçoise, beef bourguignon, or pasta primavera. Begin with a selection of cheeses and accompany your meal with the wine of your choice, then finish with a milk chocolate pot de crème or vanilla bean crème brûlée.
Experience the aesthetic of a French cafe without venturing far from your apartment in Georgetown DC at Le Diplomate. You’ll save on airfare, skip out on jetlag, but still enjoy the flavors of French cuisine.
