Last night my father was in town on business and I met up with him and some friends at Marvin, on 14th and U. I have been to Marvin for drinks (love the heated rooftop patio) but had yet to try their food. The ambiance is very nice, and the "bistro" section was well separated from the bar, although still quite loud. The tin ceiling, while pretty to look at, doesn't make for a quiet evening. Our waitress was very energetic and had good recommendations. I had a arugula and grapefruit salad and some mussels, both delicious and my father highly recommends the sweet potato ravioli. For dessert, we all shared the banana bread pudding and salted caramel ice cream. While the pudding didn't delight, the ice cream was amazing. We even had a celebrity sighting...I am sure Ann Coulter walked out as we were finishing our meal. When we asked the waitress to confirm whether it truly was Coulter (my friends weren't convinced because they only saw the back of her) she replied "I don't think she'd be welcome here."
