"A mix of tourists and straight-from-work happy hour-seekers keep Lucha Rosa, a Mexican rooftop bar on top of the Moxy Hotel, constantly busy. Although it might be standing room only, we like coming in right after work when the vibe feels like a Summer Friday every day of the week. Order the pulpo ceviche, pork belly tacos, and something from the lengthy agave list. Thanks to a retractable roof, the patio is open rain or shine." - madeline weinfield
"Lucha Rosa has everything you need to unwind on a Friday evening. A DJ pumps a mix of reggaeton and R&B at the Moxy Hotel rooftop bar as a crowd of 20 and 30-somethings lounge on bubblegum pink velvet couches tossing back drinks so smooth, they couldn’t possibly be strong (they are). Which is why you may find yourself feeling a little twirly after three glasses of something called a Bed of Roses, a cocktail made with lots of tequila and rosé." - omnia saed, tristiana hinton

"Head to Lucha Rosa for a Barbie fix to sip on the Bed of Roses cocktail. Tequila, Campari, grapefruit, rose, and pink peppercorn combine in the rooftop space adorned in magenta flowers." - Vinciane Ngomsi
"Lucha Rosa, located at the Moxy hotel in downtown D.C., is a Mexican-style cantina with a vibrant, Oaxaca-style design adorned with magenta flowers. It offers a transportive experience featuring one of the largest agave menus in the city, with 130 curated bottles including Mezcal, Raicilla, Bacanora, and Sotol. The bar service extends until 2 a.m. on weekends, rare for its neighborhood. The cocktail program features playful, fruit, flower, and spice-infused drinks. The food menu offers traditional Mexican dishes, including ceviche and a variety of tacos." - Tim Ebner
