About Iron Gate
Iron Gate by lauded chef Tony Chittum has been a continual recipient of awards and accolades in its five years in Dupont Circle. The restaurant has been featured in Washingtonian magazine's "100 Very Best Restaurants 2018," and Washington Post critic Tom Sietsema says "Count me pleased" at Chef Tony's Italian and Greek inspired menu. Zagat calls Iron Gate one of the best romantic restaurants in DC, and James Beard Award semifinalist Chef Tony has been called one of DC's rising culinary stars. The restaurant features a locally-sourced and ever-changing Southern Italian and Greek influenced menu as well as a robust wine, spirit and craft cocktail program.
