cocktail bar
333 G St NW
People who want to feel like they've escaped the city while still seeing it spread below them should head here—rooftop drinks and wood-fired pizza with the Capitol in sight, the kind of place that works equally well for a date or unwinding with colleagues.

Peruvian cocktails and bites on a rooftop where the kitchen downstairs has earned serious accolades—good if you want to taste what a James Beard chef does when mixing drinks.
