The Duck & The Peach is a New American restaurant in D.C.’s Capitol Hill, inspired by the fresh flavors of California and the warmth of New England. Led by Executive Chef Katarina Petonito and Rammy's Pastry Chef of the Year Rochelle Cooper, our seasonal menu features signature dishes like rotisserie duck with watercress panzanella and elegant, handcrafted desserts.

Dinner is a celebration of the seasons, while our casual weekend brunch invites you to gather with friends and family. The space feels like stepping into a dear friend’s home—charming, warm, and welcoming.

Join us at The Duck & The Peach, where every meal is a meaningful celebration of food, connection, and community. Named a James Beard Finalist in 2024 and one of D.C.’s 25 best restaurants by The New York Times, we can’t wait to welcome you.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Katarina Petonito

From the OpenTable editors: From the same group as the beloved La Collina, restaurateur Hollis Wells Silverman's The Duck & The Peach digs deep into local, seasonal produce alongside rotisserie-grilled meats. Get comfortable in the industrial-chic dining room and consider going all out with the showstopping crispy duck feast that's served as part of a three-course meal that might include chèvre-filled dates and pumpkin gnudi. It's no wonder the New York Times named the restaurant one of the 25 best in DC.

    A nice place with great tasting food. However, most everything on the drinks menu and dinner menu are overpriced. In addition, they automatically add 20% to your bill for service. At the prices they charge, they can and should pay the staff better. Very presumptuous of them to just add it to the bill.

    Think it has gone a bit downhill for brunch. Food a bit meh, service a bit "relaxed," and the person who checked us in a bit confused.

    Neighborhood gem with an amazing duck. The duck was moist and delicious and plenty for two people. The other items are there to compliment the major entrees of chicken, duck or beef. We order the carrots which were cooked just right but the seasonings were just too much. The lettuce salad was delicious but nothing special. But the ambience was great. I could have an actual conversation. The service was excellent The pavlova was an amazing surprise with little bits of coffee surprises. Get the duck. That’s all I can say.

    It was overall a good experience. But the little things added up. We (4) ordered at the same time. But one dish came 20 min before all others. They forgot the single pancake and when we asked about it they said that the kitchen is busy. But we also had double pancakes and they can with the benedict sausage meals. The Benedict’s were good, but luke warm. Overall everything was good but nothing was so amazing to justify the steep prices nor the a priori included 20% tip

    The duck feast was outstanding and good value for the amount of food we got. The Brussel sprouts were perfectly crispy and dessert was as impressive as the rest of the meal. Will return. Highly recommend.

    From start to finish it was memorable. The service was attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. The Butter trio with pumpernickel bread was heaven paired with a beautiful Duck Liver Mousse with house made orange Marmalade. The Beet Risotto with Genuine Pecorino was beautiful and perfect. The rice was al dente and creamy. The Duck was amazing. Thin Crispy skin while the duck meat was tender and moist. The desserts were also wonderful with their award winning Pastry Chef.
