"When you need a rooftop situation with drinks that cost around $16 (versus the standard $25 rooftop cocktail), head to Rooftop Kitchen in Tenleytown. The neighborhood restaurant is basically a patio in the clouds—no fancy views here, just the sky. Sit on some giant furniture with all of your homies when you’ve decided to skate out of work a little early. The menu is as basic as the view, but crispy-ish buffalo shrimp does a good job of soaking up a smoky mezcal Wahakan Hat Trick, which tastes even better with the addition of fire bitters." - omnia saed, tristiana hinton
"MINA Group’s Rooftop Kitchen, situated five floors up at the glossy City Ridge development, offers rare rooftop views in a sleek indoor-outdoor setting. Whether dining for brunch or dinner, what awaits are pizza, spicy rigatoni, crab lettuce cups, and campfire s’mores as a sweet treat. Wash it all down with beer, wine, cocktails, and for bigger crowds, carafes of High Noon, margaritas, bloody marys, and spritzes." - Vinciane Ngomsi
"Dine facing clear views of the National Cathedral with this Labor Day weekend at Rooftop Kitchen. Available Saturday and Sunday, small plates include warm pretzels with beer cheese fondue, hummus and pita, or chilled crab lettuce cups. Summer brunch bites include the smash burger or the watermelon salad that goes nicely with its bloody mary carafe, margarita, or the spritz." - Vinciane Ngomsi
"This casual spot from the team behind Bourbon Steak opened just in time for warm days. The Cathedral Heights rooftop restaurant has fire pits, giant patio furniture, and pizza and burgers to enjoy while watching the traffic fly by on Wisconsin Avenue." - omnia saed, tristiana hinton
"Five floors up at the glossy City Ridge development near Tenleytown sits MINA Group’s scenic new Rooftop Kitchen. The reimagined restaurant is now open to the public for the first time, with a menu full of burgers, pizza, and vibrant seafood starters from celebrity chef Michael Mina. The year-round respite with views of the National Cathedral is one of the only rooftop dining options in the area. Cocktails swing from classic to excessive (see: a $40 “Millionaire” margarita)." - Tierney Plumb
