"District diners have been awaiting chef Kwame Onwuachi’s return since he left Kith and Kin back in 2020. Dishes on the Afro-Caribbean menu at his new place, Dōgon, start at very good and dip into incredible (see: the peppery, tangy BBQ greens with slivers of beef bacon). While there are a few traditional Caribbean and Pan-African dishes on this menu, nothing here is quite what you might expect. We checked it out, and added it to the Hit List. Reservations are tough to secure, even weeks in advance, but you can score a walk-in seat and full menu service at the compact bar for up to two guests in a party. Get there early to have a fighting chance." - omnia saed
