Urbana - Downtown Washington DC Dining for Locals and Visitors Alike

Adjacent to Hotel Palomar Washington DC is the upscale 173-seat Urbana restaurant. Diners are greeted by the enchanting vision of sleek white marble and the enticing aromas that emanate from the wood-burning oven. Dark oak floors and an ornate ceiling captivate guests, while the energy and activity from the exhibition kitchen sets the stage for diners to watch Urbana's culinary mastery.

Influenced by regional cuisines of Northern Italy, the South of France, Greece and Spain, Urbana showcases outstanding fare that is both innovative and approachable. The menu highlights fresh, hand selected seasonal ingredients, including signature pastas, pizza from the wood-burning oven, grilled meats and seafood.

Fine wine complements the fine dining, and much attention at Urbana is paid to an extensive collection of imported reds and whites. An entire side of the restaurant is dedicated to wine storage, with backlit bottles from wall to wall. Along with the two stationary wine stations and a resident sommelier, Urbana evokes the warmth of a Tuscan wine cellar.

A destination on its own, an attractive lounge is set off by a central, ebonized wood bar. Tufted leather chairs make for comfortable social surroundings, high top tables offer a convenient alternative for dining, and oversized wine bottles line the bar.

Urbana's lively scene creates an inviting atmosphere where local residents and tourists dine side by side, where diplomats and celebrities feel right at home, and where Armani suits are as befitting as blue jeans.
