You Said It
 
When you have a guest in town and you don't want to take them to a chain steakhouse, you need to visit Rays. $30 steak (that comes with mashed potatoes and cream of spinach). The seasoned cashews to start and gourmet mint chocolates after your meal don't cost a dime. The waitresses get it done. Ray's has character. Forego the stuffy D.C. crowds and enjoy the best food in a humble Arlington neighborhood. Your guests will thank you.
