Description

Tips

Taking DC---or, at least, Capitol Hill---by storm, Ted’s Bulletin steps back a few decades with its Americana food, with a retro look at milkshakes, bountiful breakfasts (served most of the day), Sunday supper dishes like buttermilk country fried steak with a crunchy coating, and a selection of burgers to tickle any fancy.

Citysearch Editorial Review:
This Capitol Hill diner (on Barracks Row near Eastern Market) is a clever nod to a bygone era. Owners Mark and Ty Neal--also behind D.C.'s Matchbox restaurants--named the joint after their father,...
