"Modern French brasserie Le Diplomate is well-known among DC brunch goers for its charming sidewalk seating, which is now lined with stylish enclosed booths. Try one of the delicious egg dishes off the “Les Oeufs” menu, like a lobster omelette or the eggs basquaise, or go for classic French fare like steak frites and trout amandine. Don’t forget to add some mimosas or a refreshing Le Dip Spritz.How to book: Make indoor and outdoor dining reservations via OpenTable and order takeout and delivery via Caviar"

"Capitol HillTwinkle-lit, farmhouse-chic restaurant known for its bold small platesIn 2014, it was practically a badge of honor to get a table at Rose’s Luxury, Aaron Silverman’s cult favorite New American restaurant nestled into a converted Capitol Hill townhouse. The restaurant became as synonymous with delicious small plates as it did with the ever-present line that made its way down the street as diners sometimes waited hours for a table. Considering that countless new restaurants have opened with just as much initial buzz, we’re almost surprised to say that the line is still there -- a testament to just how good this Michelin-starred restaurant really is."

"Local chef Aaron Silverman’s two-story Barrack’s Row joint is worth every little bit of the buzz it’s getting. Rose’s doesn’t take reservations and a line forms at 4pm on weekends for a 5:30 seating; but don’t let this be too offputting. Rose’s menu is Southern meets Jewish meets Japanese meets French meets Thai meets your grandmother’s home cooking, and changes often."

"The hottest seat in town is at Rose’s Luxury, the foodie favorite spot in DC that everyone is raving about. Owner Aaron Silverman boasts quite the resume, having worked for some big culinary names, among them Sean Brock (of Charleston’s..."

"Serving the Petworth neighborhood for more than 10 years, Qualia Coffee Roasters is a DC favorite. With an emphasis on their roasting, this cafe features single-origin coffees exclusively and aims to get beans in the hands of customers within three days of roast—no matter where you are in the country. The roaster fills each label with no less than a paragraph of information about the coffee and its source."

"With not one, but two rooftop bars, and a Tequileria with more than 200 tequilas and mezcals, Richard Sandoval’s El Centro is an experience. And with Sangria Sundays, Taco Tuesdays, Margarita Wednesdays, Latin Thursdays, International Nights, and bottomless Weekend Brunches, there’s always an excuse to go and hang out and enjoy some of the best Latin-inspired food and cocktails anywhere around. (Sorry, Mondays, not sure what the deal is there….)"

"For delicious Mexican comfort food, hearty Latin brunches and fine tequilas in Washington D.C., look no further than to El Centro D.F. While the restaurant, colloquially known as “El Centro” is famous for its after-hours nightclub scene, its menu features an array of mouthwatering Mexican dishes. Another great perk of El Centro D.F? On the weekends, the kitchen is open past 1 a.m.!"
