The U.S. Capitol Cafe offers a warm and inviting atmosphere, with a nice setting to sit outside under the covered patio. The menu features delicious dishes such as the Crab Mac and Cheese, made with cavatappi pasta and full of crab meat, and the shrimp and grits with meaty and big shrimp. Other popular options include the turkey sandwich on cranberry and nut bread and the Oxtail with Jollof rice. While some dishes may need improvement, such as the senate bean soup, the overall experience is good, with a fancy ambiance and great food. The cafe could improve on coordination, but the food alone is worth return trips.
