The phenomenal tapas and fun times here might be the best example of what Jose Andres has done for DC eating.

Hit Oyamel in Penn Quarter for delicious Mexican food in a fun space.

Another Jose Andres spot with solid tapas. Head to Zaytinya for a power lunch that doesn’t feel like a power lunch.

Fainting Goat isn’t great, but you’ll end up here at some point. When the time comes, go heavy on the drinks and light on the food.
