"Across the street, Palisade is bringing D.C.-based Busboys and Poets to complement the hotel’s offerings. That restaurant, book shop, and event space traditionally hosts local poets and artists in addition to serving food and coffee. It’s named after Langston Hughes, who, prior to gaining recognition for his writing, worked a busboy at the Wardman Park Hotel in Washington." - Josie Sexton

Lucha Rosa

Cocktail bar · Downtown

Downtown D.C. welcomes a dreamy new rooftop bar that boasts one of the largest agave menus in the city. The Moxy hotel’s long-awaited rooftop oasis Lucha Rosa is open! Late-night bar service goes until 2 a.m. on weekends, which is a rare feature for its 9-to-5 neighborhood. The Mexican-style cantina marks the second D.C. venue from Baltimore’s Atlas Restaurant Group, which debuted all-day seafood spot Parlour Victoria next door in February. To get to Lucha Rosa, take Moxy’s lobby elevator to the 13th floor to encounter a restaurant adorned in magenta flowers meant to mimic Southern Mexico’s colorful landscape. Lucha Rosa literally translates to “pink struggle” and nods to Mexico’s wrestling culture.
