Lily and the Cactus is a vibrant bar and bistro in NoMa offering a lively mix of Southwestern flavors and friendly vibes, perfect for gatherings and happy hours.
"The second-level restaurant tucked inside NoMa’s Hilton Garden Inn, originally overseen by Equinox founder Todd Gray, now has another hospitality star behind the scenes: Top Chef alum and Kora founder Morou Ouattara. At his Crystal City restaurant Ouattara focuses on approachable Italian food. But he’s already begun mixing influences from his native West Africa into Hilton’s Southwestern-style bistro." - Tierney Plumb
