La Bohème occupies an upstairs room at 2622 P Street NW, serving modern American cuisine in a seasonal prix fixe format. The menu changes with the seasons and is organized around a running theme; the current iteration draws inspiration from J.R.R. Tolkien. Each course arrives with a pairing option — wine, cocktails, or house-made elixirs — built to match the theme of that season's menu.
The format leans into spectacle and storytelling as much as food, drawing regulars who treat it as a special-occasion destination and describe the multi-course pairings as a defining part of the experience. La Bohème shares a sister-restaurant relationship with Apéro, also in Northwest Washington.
