I had the chicken Caesar wrap it was perfect.
My wife had the turkey sandwich which they prepared special for her with no mayo she said it was awesome.
My kids had hot did and fries and well they seemed okay with them.
The little capital desert is white chocolate with homemade whipped cream inside.
Good spot we ate after the tour as you have 1.5 hours without a restroom

I was excited to try the Senate Bean Soup and while there was a ton of other good looking options, nothing would deter me.
The soup was filling and satisfying, although not quite as tasty as it could've been. I made a small salad from the salad bar - there was a dude ahead of me that didn't seem to be aware I was waiting to serve myself behind him, that is until I was ready to go around him to serve myself some dressing, when he promptly blocked my way.
What can you do, right? The salad itself was so fresh and delicious it just needed a touch of dressing anyway.
I also had to get the Capitol Building dessert.
It was pretty bland, but absolutely gorgeous!

Located on the lower level of the visitor center - open 0830-1030, and 1100-1600 M-F.
This restaurant is a food court style with great lunch choices ranging from burgers and pizza to great bbq meals or chef prepared pork loin.
There is a wonderful salad bar and a dessert bar that is simply ridiculous - and it’s as good as it looks.
I had a piece of carrot cake - I may eat again next week; simply, it was huge, very rich, and omg good.
I did smack my wife’s hand when she came for it - but i did so lovingly, so it’s ok.
