I'll contribute food/bar suggestions since there are too many things to do/see during a vacation
for steakhouses I'd recommend any of the following
Joe's Seafood and Steak
Oceans Prime
Capital Grille
For small plates I've found these to be fantastic spots
Zaytinya(Greek-ish)
The Source(asian)
Proof('merican)
Doi Moi(southeast asian)
Estadio(spanish)
Jaleo(spanish)
If you're a whiskey fan, especially scotch you MUST go to Jack Rose. The food there is fantastic as well.
For an amazing dining/drink experience check one of the several michelin restaurants
Minibar(**)
Blue Duck Tavern(*)
Komi(*)
Minibar is great and is def a once every few years type of dining experience

That’s funny. I believe 1981 was the one and only time I was there for the 4th and saw the show.

You'll be able to walk pretty much everywhere

Capital tour- book through congressman
Walk the war monuments, Lincoln Memorial, etc. you can walk them all in a half day.
I would not do the Zoo in July. It's mostly outside and a decent zoo but too much else to do for your first time.
Spy Museum is supposed to be great.
The Metro is not cheap. If there's 2-3 of you, don't be afraid to taxi or Uber around. If you stay in the D.C. Area it will only cost $2-3 more than a metro ride for 2 and save a lot of time most likely.
