Page 2Tokyo Pearl
Tokyo Pearl is both a sushi restaurant and a graffiti-covered nightclub in Dupont Circle.
Union Pub
This casual bar is right across from Union Station and has a small but mighty brunch menu that is the ultimate start to game day or your good-food-low-lights hangover cure.
All Purpose
All Purpose in Navy Yard is serving pizza and Italian appetizers on the water, and is a quick walk to Nats Park.
Solly’s U Street Tavern
Make Solly's your go-to for a casual beer around U Street, and definitely get involved with the Sloppy Mama's BBQ they serve.
Takoda
Right off U Street, Takoda has a nice (but small) rooftop and some good bar food options. We like it for a day drinking session or even a casual date.
Ristorante Piccolo
Ristorante Piccolo is an Italian restaurant with a live violinist most nights. It’s over-the-top, but a good Georgetown experience to have once.
El Centro D.F. Georgetown
When you’re more concerned about having a good time than eating authentic Mexican food, head to El Centro D.F. in Georgetown.
Roofers Union
Despite being in the middle of Adams Morgan craziness, Roofers Union is a great restaurant/bar/rooftop for a casual drink or dinner.
Dacha Beer Garden
Dacha is a beer garden in Shaw and one of our favorite places to spend an afternoon day drinking.
Sfoglina
Sfoglina is an Italian pasta spot in Van Ness that’s perfect for a date night or dinner with your parents.
Colada Shop
The food at Colada Shop is just okay, but the space and location make it a good place for a quick meal around U Street.
Mussel Bar & Grille
Mussel Bar is a go-to when your parents are in town. Grab a seat on the patio if it’s nice out.
The Salt Line
Salt Line’s New England-style seafood, outdoor bar, and attractive dining room are perfect for a date or dinner with parents in Navy Yard.
Bluejacket Brewery
Don’t just hit Bluejacket before a Nats game - the Navy Yard brewery is a great spot for a group hang and even a casual date.
Haikan
There are plenty of places to get ramen in DC, but Haikan is doing it a bit differently. Try it for a casual dinner next time you’re in Shaw.
Timber Pizza Company
Timber is a casual pizza spot in Shaw that’s great for a low-key dinner or a group-hang outside.
Lauriol Plaza Restaurant
Lauriol doesn't serve the best Mexican food in Dupont, but as long as you know that, it's a fun spot to start a night out.
Tabard Inn
Tabard Inn in Dupont has a reliable brunch, but the patio is a nice spot for dinner (and live jazz), too.
The Dabney
A highly attractive spot located on the highly trendy Blagden Alley, The Dabney will impress both your date and your Instagram followers.
