20 Best Restaurants in Washington, DC

"If your artsy, bookish next-door neighbor’s living room had a commercial kitchen in it, it would feel much like Rooster & Owl, which is housed on the ground-floor of a new building on 14th Street. Vegetarians and meat eaters alike will feel catered to, thanks to a set menu that changes with the seasons; but every meal at Rooster & Owl begins with an order of delectable pineapple buns, inspired by chef Yuan Tang’s childhood in Hong Kong (no pineapples are present). The husband-and-wife team behind the restaurant designed the menu as a communal experience, with lots of sharing: four courses with four choices each." - Adele Chapin
