Executive chef and French native Bertrand Chemel is offering a Bastille Day-themed dinner available Thursday, July 14th through Sunday, July 17th. The three-course prix fixe menu will feature some classic French dishes like paté de campagne, salad Niçoise, escargot de Bourgogne, and more. Also expect a dessert like blueberry Vacherin, raspberry Millefeuille, or apricot clafoutis. The restaurant is normally closed on Sunday, but the Bastille Day menu will be available that day, but without the limited a la carte menu. That means a $25 deposit will be required for all reservations placed on Sunday.

Try a dinner based on the Bordeaux region from July 14 through 17 at this Old Town Alexandria restaurant. The menu includes three courses for $39 (with an optional $24 wine pairing), four courses for $49 (plus $30 optional wine pairing), and five courses for $59 (plus $35 optional wine pairing). Choices include terrine de foie gras, escargots au pistou, and tarte aux aubergines. All dishes are also available a la carte.

This French restaurant is getting in the Bastille Day spirit with two different dinner seatings at 7 p.m. and 9 p.m. There will also be music by DJ Ash, and reservations are recommended.

This weekend, Diners are encouraged to dress in theme (like corsets, fishnets, and other 18th century clothing) and can expect French-inspired food, burlesque, French maids, and a live jazz band at this weekend's brunch party. There will even be an appearance from the King and Queen. Brunch is $32.50 per person, and reservations are required through La Boum's website.

On July 14, chef Deshaies will offer a special French-inspired menu with three courses for $55. Expect live music from 5:45 - 9:30 p.m. in the lounge.

This Georgetown wine bar has created a Bastille Day wine flight ($22) with wines from across France. Try a bubbly Cremant de Jura, Chardonnay from Burgundy, a bright and fruity Gamay from Chasselay. Pair it with themed foods like a traditional French Tomato Tart Tatin or a creamy French cheese like Brillat-Savarin. ENO Wine Bar will also offer 30 percent off all French wine bottles in honor of the holiday.

On Thursday, July 14, L'Enfant Café will do happy hour all day. The $5 cover will grant access to drink specials like $5 Champagne, rail drinks, and Belgian beers. The kitchen will be closed, but the restaurant will have some items like simple sandwiches served on baguettes. There will also be a DJ, and the "French Maid Relay Race" will take place at 7:30 p.m.

On Thursday, July 14th, Le Bar is doing happy hour from 4-7 p.m. Then live music performances by French-inspired gypsy jazz quartet Djangolaya and a guest DJ will start at 7 p.m.

Like its sister restaurant Convivial, Mintwood will offer discounted drinks and nibbles (or $12 for one of each) on Bastille Day.
