Fodor's Expert Review The Imperial

$$ Adams Morgan American

This design-forward restaurant has a stunning, two-tier, see-and-be-seen rooftop, as well as plenty of other Instagrammable spots. It also offers colorful cocktails and an eclectic menu of Mid-Atlantic staples such as crab cakes and Virginia oysters—not to mention decadent seafood towers (and towering burgers) that are in keeping with its name. It was awarded the Michelin Plate symbol in both 2021 and 2022, so you're in good culinary hands here.
