What are the most overrated DC restaurants?

Buck's Fishing & - utterly offensive with their faux family-style dining and their completely-mistaken conception of real food. We ordered the lobster about a year ago and it was served without the claws. When I inquired, I was told that the chef felt that it was too difficult for people to get to the claw meat. I really think they were saving the claws for some future bisque.

Comet Ping Pong, imho is another weak attempt at faux retro culture. Let's make mediocre pizza, and charge a lot for it because we're serving it on pingpong tables. Please!

What are the most overrated DC restaurants?

I would agree with you about Jackie's and Firefly. However, I took my girlfriend to Citronelle this past Friday and the whole experience was delightful, if rather expensive. The chef, Michel Richard even walked around the entire dining area, taking a moment to chat at every table.
