chinese restaurant
7101 Democracy Blvd
Tucked inside the mall food court, this spot does one thing exceptionally well: hand-pleated soup dumplings that arrive steaming and fragile, their thin skins ready to burst with broth and pork. Go if you want genuine Shanghai-style xiaolongbao without the trek to Flushing.
pizza restaurant
2016 P St NW
A sourdough pizza spot in Dupont where the kitchen clearly cares about what lands on your plate—come here if you want to taste the difference hand-fermented dough makes, and don't skip the seasonal salads.

cocktail bar
751 Wharf St SW
