このコンテンツについて
D.C. is sizzling with culinary innovation, drawing food lovers into a vibrant, flavor-charged scene that marries historical tradition with next-level creativity. Recent months have brought a cascade of high-profile openings and daring concepts, and listeners, there’s never been a more exhilarating time to indulge in the capital.
At the heart of D.C.’s buzz is Fish Shop Southwest Washington, a new import from Scotland’s acclaimed seafood scene. The waterfront setting alone is worth a visit, but it’s the ethically harvested, locally sourced seafood—like Maryland crab crumpets—that’s reeling in the crowds. Head north to Dupont Circle and you’ll find Reynold’s, a cocktail lounge where moody lighting, art-laden walls, and quirkily named martinis lure the city’s chic and curious.
Union Market and La Cosecha continue to anchor D.C.’s food hall revolution, showcasing local vendors and pop-ups serving everything from smoky barbecue to vibrant Latin American plates. Food halls have become social hubs, hosting outdoor movies and cultural events that keep both taste buds and spirits high.
A surge in global flavors is shaping the city’s identity. Taqueria Xochi and Little Miner Taco have sparked a birria frenzy, led by chefs with pedigrees from José Andrés' ThinkFoodGroup. Meanwhile, SOST on U Street raises the bar with a three-level celebration of the African diaspora, serving up Ethiopian coffee, West African suya skewers, and “Berber-Q” chicken alongside vinyl-spun beats.
When it comes to star power, few can match Kwame Onwuachi. His Afro-Caribbean hotspot, Dōgon, in the Salamander Washington DC hotel, draws on Nigerian, Jamaican, Trinidadian, and Creole traditions. Onwuachi’s bold flavors and storytelling have made waves from Top Chef to cookbooks, cementing his spot as a must-watch chef.
D.C. chefs are also predicting that West African and Latin American cuisines will soar in 2025, with restaurants like Providencia, Pascual, and Tsehay Ethiopian Restaurant and Bar leading the charge. Desserts are turning heads, too—pastry chefs like Rochelle Cooper are blending savory and sweet, playing with fig leaf and habanada peppers to intrigue adventurous palates.
Tech is joining the table, with D.C. poised to embrace AI-powered dining, streamlining service while maintaining an eye on hospitality and quality—a nod to global innovators who see smart kitchens as the next frontier.
But what truly sets D.C. apart is its ability to reflect the world—one plate, one pop-up, one chef at a time. Here, centuries-old traditions meet the wild edge of invention. Food lovers, keep your forks poised—D.C. is feeding the future..
