St. Anselm
St. Anselm strikes the perfect balance between comfort and style. It's an accessible sit-down restaurant with a standout cocktail program and steakhouse-quality food. The menu feels creative but still familiar, with dishes your southern grandma would recognize and enjoy. The vibe is warm, the ingredients are elevated, and the setting reflects the best of DC culture. Located in Union Market, one of the city's most exciting neighborhoods, it's another hit from the Starr group, who never miss.
St. Anselm: The Gospel of Grilled Greatness If flavor had a church, St. Anselm would be the cathedral—and the salmon collar would be its holy sacrament. This dish? Transcendent. A perfect balance of crispy, buttery, and smoky, with just enough salt, pepper, and garlic to let the fish speak for itself. The fat melts right off the bone like poetry on a plate, a bite so divine you’ll consider writing a thank-you note to the chef.
