When you first enter Circle Bistro's doors, you're greeted with warm, bright orange walls, contemporary furnishings and dim lights. You just feel cool in there. Circle Bistro opened in 2003, following a massive renovation to its hotel. The bistro attracts a unique crowd -- college professors, business people and lawyers from the Foggy Bottom area. Its signature dish is the lemon-scented brook trout with glazed haricots verts and a fine herb meuniere. For a classy place to unwind after work, visit Circle Bistro's sleek and cozy bar and nibble on the potato frites.
