They are:

  • — tiny restaurant with Caribbean dishes in Petworth

The Michelin Guide now lists almost 140 D.C. restaurants that are recommended.

In all, 25 of those restaurants have star-rating status, including , the only top-rated three-star restaurant in the region. Michelin introduced the first D.C. restaurant guide in 2016.
