The most captivating new restaurant in Northern Virginia entices you from the street with planters the color of avocado and umbrellas a shade of tangerine and continues the seduction inside, where the foyer, its wallpaper festooned with palmetto leaves, looks like a page torn from Coastal Living. Servers crisscross the dining room with drinks whose mere looks refresh you and dishes that obviously spent time in a wood-fired oven.
Diners who have been here know reservations are practically a must; spontaneous types show up hoping the first-come, first-served bar hasn’t filled up. (Good luck finding a faux alligator-skin perch after 6 p.m.)
