Obelisk offers a particular niche experience in terms of Italian dining. The restaurant, which is located right in Dupont Circle, serves a five-course dinner every night of the week other than Sunday and Monday, just as it has since 1987. Although the menu changes every day, the basic format remains the same, with the set-menu dinner lasting about two to three hours. Obelisk serves well-executed Italian favorites, and although this often means the use of meat and fish as ingredients, some accommodations can be made for those with dietary restrictions. Wine pairings with the prix fixe menu are available as well.
