I concur with both Turbogod and ikitnrev, with whom I got to see their recs. A dinner at the Honolulu is a lovely way to start your evening, and make sure you get the bananas flambe for dessert. Ask for it midway thru your meal; it takes a while to set up the whole "show". So tasty, I made Vern take me back again before I left town!

Also, hope to get there early enough to see their biggest fan, and boy do I mean biggest fan. The sweet Chinese owner told us, "He orduh 7 SB's every day! Sometime only 6." "'SB's'?," we queried. "Suffering Bastahds!," he whispered excitedly.

Politiki was also a delight, in the more rush-rush bar sense. Get past all the Capitol Hill interns on the ground and upper floors, however, and the beautiful downstairs will charm you. Hope that Ted ('zat right, Suburban Hipster?) is working the bar, cuz the other folks haven't a clue as to how to make a tiki drink!
