Albi Washington

Albi sits on 4th Street SE in the Navy Yard. It draws on Mediterranean influences for a menu that leans into modern, creative techniques.

The room runs smart and elegant, but the real draw is how it stands apart from the surrounding game-day crowds near Nationals Park. While much of the waterfront caters to a loud, transient audience, Albi opts for a quieter, more deliberate pace. It is a better choice than the neighboring sports bars for anyone who actually wants to hear their dinner companion. You are a fifteen-minute walk from the stadium, far enough to avoid the worst of the post-game rush while remaining within the heart of the district.
