"Thanks to its neon-green sign and inevitable line, you'll spot Rose's Luxury from across the street. Chef Aaron Silverman has made a huge impact on the D.C. food scene since the restaurant opened in Barracks Row in 2013; his lychee salad with pork sausage, habanero, and peanuts is officially one of the city's cult classics."

"Chef/owner Aaron Silverman's farmhouse restaurant, in the heart of Barracks Row, serves creative (and Michelin-starred) cooking inspired by his travels and culinary training in the American South, Mexico, the Mediterranean, and Southeast Asia...."

"When chef Fabio Trabocchi opened Fiola in 2011, he quickly established his new trattoria as the place to go in Washington for exquisite, sumptuous Italian. Pastas, naturally, are the stars of the menu, especially the tender pappardelle with bolognese ragu. But seafood plays a strong supporting role, and the bar offers a serious cocktail menu, including six different variations on the negroni."

"Located in Downtown, Fiola is the first creation of Maria and Fabio Trabocchi’s trifecta of restaurants. Their raw seafood dishes, referred to as ‘Italian sushi,’ and pasta dishes topped with truffles or lobster are must-trys. They also have creative takes on classic dishes like the prosciutto-wrapped veal chop."

"Experience authentic, regional, Italian cuisine without the travel. At Fiola, you will get the star treatment in a sophisticated atmosphere with family cuisine. Explore a variety of caviar and wine tastings paired with lobster ravioli, Spanish branzino, and Coniglio."

"We are lucky to live in an area that takes its coffee so seriously!. Whether you like cold brews or cappuccinos, a modern or cozy vibe, there are so fabulous coffee shops in DC to choose from. Did we miss your favorite coffee shops in DC?"

"Don't settle for ho-hum sushi downtown when you could be at Sushi Gakyu. The stylish, new-ish spot serves up rolls you know (like spicy tuna roll, eel avocado roll and shrimp tempura roll) and sushi options that go way beyond the ordinary (like the in-house specialty narezushi, or fermented sushi). Bento boxes make this sushi restaurant near the White House a great lunch spot too."

"Chef-owner Yoshihisa Ota specializes in sushi at his 54-seat restaurant. This means that at Sushi Gakyu you'll find no fryer or grill. Located a stone's throw away from the White House, this premium sushi restaurant boasts a modern, industrial-style setting with a large sushi bar, white maple tables, and two-toned walls."

"Veteran sushi chef (and sake sommelier) Yoshi Ota opened Sushi Gakyu in 2017, bringing over three decades of experience to the White House-adjacent venue. His goal is to widen D.C..."

"Capitol HillThe vibe: Inviting; approachable; Jiro Dreams of Sushi.This Hill haunt is most worthy of being your go-to once a week kind of place because they do take-out and are generally willing to please. Nigiri and maki are the focus, with a handful of appetizers from the kitchen.Best bet: The sushi omakase-tasting is the closest you can get to having a Jiro-like experience for a price tag that astounds at $50. Chef/owner Minoru Ogawa feeds you piece-by-piece from behind the sushi bar until you tap out."

"Unless you score a reservation at this Capitol Hill sushi restaurant, there’s a slim chance you’ll find yourself eating dinner here. Not only is the restaurant teeny, but the secret is out about its incredibly fresh fish and masterfully prepared rolls at bargain prices. Our advice: Ask your waiter to pick your dishes rather than opting for the omakase (chef’s menu)."

"With craft beer for Mom and Dad and their Chicago-inspired deep dish for everyone, we always love us some Uno Pizzeria. Be sure to ask your waiter for some pizza dough for the kiddos to play with—just like Play-Doh, but not quite as eyebrow-raising if they “accidentally” eat some of that abstract dinosaur sculpture. COVID-19 Update: Uno Pizzeria and Grill is currently offering pick up and delivery."

"If you’re looking for gluten free Fast Food delivery, consider checking out Curry Spoon in Shirlington."

"What started in 2013 as a craft brew pub in Shaw has since expanded to include a dedicated production facility in Brookland and distribution throughout DC bars. A visit to Right Proper is hardly ever the same, whether you make a reservation for indoor dining or walk up to a patio table. Its selection of wild yeast ales rotate frequently and are brewed in small batches, so you never know what may be next on tap."
