Where to Stay

Our Favorite Spots in DC

Staying for the weekend? Here are our local favorites for you to consider checking out.

​Good Eats & Drinks​​

  • Rumi's Kitchen - The best Persian food in DC. Try everything, just make a reservation.

  • Kura Revolving Sushi Bar - For cost-effective, straight-from-Japan vibes, look no further.

  • Emmy Squared - Johnny's favorite is the Big Ang.

  • Taqueria Habenero - Head up north for some of the most unique tacos in DC.

  • Fish Market Restaurant, Old Town Alexandria - We recommend sitting on the balcony and ordering the oysters and calamari.

  • Joon - Tyson's Corner has the best all-you-can-eat Persian brunch in DC (no reservation needed).

  • Sala Thai @ Park Kennedy - The best Thai food in DC. A favorite for ordering in.

  • Chez Billy Sud - Our go-to French spot in Georgetown for brunch or dinner. Head to the wine bar and sit by the fireplace.

  • Any Day Now - Their rotating latte, and the breakfast sandwich, is worth a stop.​

  • Tatte Cafe - Anything you get here is good - Johnny's order is the Tatte Latte and Erika loves the lamb shakshuka. They're all over DC, so don't be shy.​​

  • Rocket Bar - The best pre-game for any event at Capitol One Arena. Try your hand at skeeball.

  • Garden District - Watch 14th Street yuppies go by at this low-key beer garden. Don't ignore the food menu!

  • Lapis & Lapop - DC Afghan staple and its chic basement vinyl bar are a must-stop in Adam's Morgan.

Things To Do

  • The National Zoo - Take a trip on the Metro to see the pandas, great cats, and stop at Duke's Counter on the way out.

  • Old Town Alexandria - For historic Americana, head to Old Town and walk down King Street, check out the local shops, and visit the Torpedo Factory for one-of-a-kind art.
