Description
Only a block from the House of Representatives office buildings and the Republican National Committee Headquarters, the patio of Bullfeathers is a popular spot for people-watching-- if you can recognize lobbyists or Hill staffers drawn by the hearty meals. But the atmosphere is unassuming, and the bar attracts crowds much younger and more casual than the power lunch set. Group-friendly and across the street from the Capitol South Metro.

Consistantly good -- no bull! During the work week, Bullfeather's is packed with Hill staffers and their friends.
On weekends, it becomes a neighborhood treasure, where good food and good service go hand-in-hand.
Rod and I live just around the corner, so when we've had a day full of errands, we often walk the few paces necessary to find good food quickly.
Also, when we have friends visiting from out of town, it's a great place to take them to give them a real flavor of Capitol Hill.
Bullfeather's never disappoints.
Rod was unexpectedly surprised by the prime rib and he waxed poetic over the seafood cakes.
I'm more predictable. If I'm in Bullfeathers, I order the Bull burger. Even on busy nights -- last night, the kitchen got an order for 30 steaks just before our order got submitted -- it's fresh, cooked to perfection, and loaded with all the goodies that make it the signature house burger.
We like the Danish onions so much that we often order them "to go" when we're cooking burgers or steaks on our grill at home.
Service is always top notch...special kudos go to Mara; we generally just sit at the bar to eat, and she gets it right and does it well each and every time.
I dislike packed, noisy places, so we stick to weekends, but folks who like to rub elbows with Hill staffers will really like weekday lunches, happy hours and dinners here.
Note: There is no smoking in the restaurant during lunch hours. [04 May 2003 10:24:50]
