American City Diner, Washington DC

This establishment marries two undeniably American traditions: diner food and movies. The menu reads just about how you would expect: scrambles, omelettes, burgers, dogs, pizzas, melts, pot roast and turkey dinners. The soda jerks are trained experts at all your favorite desserts be it shakes, malts, sundaes or anything your sweet tooth can come up with. Once you've ordered, sink your teeth into a nice, juicy flick. Each night, the diner screens a true American classic from tamer fare like "The Seven Year Itch" and "High Noon" to gritty crime dramas "Serpico," "Dog Day Afternoon" and "The French Connection".
