"When the clock hits Happy Hour, head to The Imperial. From 5-7pm, the multi-level restaurant and bar serves $6 beers and $9 french onion dip with saltines fried to crispy perfection. The IPA-battered filet o’fish and housemade tartar sauce melt in your mouth (and just may dissuade you from getting a watered-down fast food version ever again). It’s also a popular weekend brunch destination, where egg specialties reign supreme. We swear by the chorizo eggs benny—the chipotle hollandaise is a tasty touch—and a stack of thick-cut challah french toast." - omnia saed, mekita rivas

"Gizelle Bryant throws a “hattitude party” to celebrate Karen Huger’s birthday in a private room at The Imperial, lining a window overlooking Adams Morgan with hats for each of the ladies. While Karen was questioned by the ladies about her DUI charge, the ladies sipped on specialty drinks inspired by Huger (including the non-alcoholic Grand Dame). Lobster rolls, fresh crab, and deviled eggs were passed around the table." - Vinciane Ngomsi
