L'Etoile is elegant and sophisticated without being overtly pretentious. Waitstaff is well-versed on the menu, even though it changes frequently. The view of the Capitol is beautiful, and I love the natural lighting and floor-to-ceiling windows. Considering Tory Miller is an award-winning chef, the prices are not outrageous. My only wish is that the portions were slightly larger, but alas, this is fine dining.
