Tom Siessema, washington post Food critic: Osteria Mozza in Georgetown. If there’s anyone who can find success in the former Dean & Deluca space, it’s Stephen Starr and Nancy Silverton.

Anne Limpert, Washington faction Executive Food Editor and Critic: People in Dabney are so excited about the arrival of all-day French spots, Petite Cerise, Keith McNally and Minetta Tavern, and food halls like Square and Love Makoto.

Jessica Sidman, Washington faction Food editor: Petit Cerise, an all-day French cafe restaurant where the Dabney team comes to the show. It’s nice to see Chef Jeremiah Langhorne’s cooking in a more intimate space, especially now that Dabney has moved to more expensive tasting menus, but it can still be difficult to secure a table!

Lori Gardner, i was there i ate it Blogger: We can’t wait to see Chef Mike Friedman’s Aventino and AP Pizza coming to Bethesda in the spring.

Niche Nellis, TheListAreYouOnIt.com the publisher: I can’t wait for Aventino from Bethesda’s Mikey Friedman (so close to home!) and Japanese food Hall Love, Makoto from Chef Makoto Okuwa and Eric Eden.
