"In Dōgon I encountered Kwame Onwuachi’s homecoming to DC: a dim, music-forward dining room where dishes reference the African diaspora and celebrate the city’s communities—chunks of Wagyu beef short rib with smoky awaze and ayib cheese nod to the Ethiopian population, and shredded deep-fried lamb with curried chickpeas pays tribute to Ben Ali and local culinary history—delivered with the crowd-pleasing energy and attentive service of a hotel-anchored restaurant." - ByThe Bon Appétit Staff
