Our ideal dinner at TSL DC? Start with the Red Snapper Ceviche for a light, fresh bite. Then, get the Pan Seared Rockfish and Grilled Sea Scallops for a delicious seafood-centric meal. We think an order of the Frutti Di Mare Bucatini is the perfect shareable plate for the table, a balanced, flavorful pasta that you’ll think about long after you’ve finished your meal.

Don’t skip Chef Jordan’s BBQ Chicken which is seasoned in a special housemade mix of spices. The chicken is smoked and then grilled to order with a black garlic balsamic glaze. Black garlic is a fermented Korean ingredient that adds a sweet, molasses-like flavor. Served with grilled asparagus, sunchokes, and fingerling potatoes cooked in duck fat.
