"A light-drenched warehouse in Ivy City is the stage for chef-owner Matt Baker’s French-influenced Chesapeake tasting menus, which start at $125 and include dishes like a well-known yellowfin tuna sashimi in soy vinaigrette. A smaller Taste of Gravitas (5 p.m. to 6 p.m. Thursday through Sunday) costs $95 per person. Gravitas accepts reservations for indoor seating, outdoor seating, and spots on its Conservatory, a rooftop bar with a glass enclosure that offers more affordable fare like $22 crab cakes. Select items are also available for pickup and delivery." - Tierney Plumb, Emily Venezky
