BLT Prime by David Burke
D.C.'s see-and-be-seen steakhouse
VERIFIED LUXURY
We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience at a hotel, restaurant or spa goes beyond looks — how it makes you feel is what you will remember most.
We started in1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.
Five-Star
These are outstanding, often iconic properties with virtually flawless service and amazing facilities.
Four-Star

Soon To Be Rated

As with everything in
Trump International Hotel Washington, D.C., in-house restaurant BLT Prime by David Burke goes big. Designed as the high-end sibling of already posh restaurant BLT Steak, the surf-and-turf spectacle off of the main lobby has a personality as big and bold as one might expect from an eatery in a Trump hotel.
Climb a short flight of stairs to seating areas that are perfect for those who want to see and be seen before starting on “Clothesline” candied bacon (wooden clothespins fasten thick bacon strips to a wire), followed by a decadent seafood tower, and then move on to steak, including a 22-ounce cowboy rib-eye.
Drinks are plays on classic cocktails (the Manhattan Tea Party gets kicked up a notch with tea-spiced vermouth), and the overall ambiance is one of joyful excess.
