"Whether you’re looking for elevated fare or comfort food favorites, you can find it at Common Ground’s Sylvan Park outpost. Everything from chef Eric Babula’s Wagyu strip to the smashburger is worth visiting for, but the bar program here is equally as impressive as the food menu. Helmed by Wes Taylor (formerly of The Patterson House and M Street Entertainment) and certified sommelier Matt Ramos (formerly of Yolan and Kayne Prime), the cocktail list includes spins on classics with cheeky names, like the “Don’t BNA Hole.”" - Kellie Walton
