Classic DC restaurant with a side of history. Don't miss the collection of stuffed creatures on the walls that were killed by Teddy Roosevelt.
Head over to Georgetown to this delicious restaurant, home to the booth where John F. Kennedy proposed to Jackie in 1953. Every U.S. president from Harry S. Truman to George W. Bush ate here before Barack Obama broke the streak.
Perfect for a cocktail with a view. Head up to the rooftop of the Hotel Washington for one of the best views in DC, overlooking the White House and monuments.
