“Nostalgia reigns” at these diners, hailed as a “must-stop” for “infamous” half-smoke hot dogs and chili, with “late-night” hours and “hardworking” staffers as further pluses; the “dingy” U Street “institution” (complete with a “time-capsule jukebox”) is joined by an H Street NE addition and an Arlington “knockoff.”

You're going to have to wait (and wait, and wait), but its worth it. Chef Aaron Silverman’s Capitol Hill restaurant has garnered a deluge of well-deserved national attention, including a Michelin star. There are a few ways to experience Rose’s Luxury: Get there at least an hour before it opens at 5pm or book one of the four indoor tables -- or the spot on the roof -- to enjoy the tasting menu (reservations open up at 11am on Mondays). Either way, make no mistake: It will be worth it, especially if you get the lychee salad.

A New York-style bagel pop-up located inside Star & Shamrock from 7am-1pm, every day but Monday. Bullfrog's bagels are everything a proper NYC bagel should be: hot, chewy, and eaten with a thick layer of cream cheese, lox, pastrami, and whitefish salad. Sooooo good.

A long-standing neighborhood staple, Horace & Dickie’s is an H Street original, serving some of the city’s best soul food. The take-out-only joint offers delicious fried chicken and other seafood, but you haven’t fully embraced DC until you’ve gotten a container of the restaurant’s signature fried fish. It’s one of the most authentic eating experiences in DC, but fair warning: One order can feed a small family, so come prepared.

It’s the model of efficiency: shop, sip, and eat without leaving Maketto. Erik Bruner-Yang’s cafe-restaurant-bar-retail hybrid is a modern minimalist’s dream. But it’s not just a stylish spot: the Japanese-inspired cafe serves Vigilante Coffee and fresh pastries baked in-house by Frenchie’s Bakery. Gain some cool points by drinking coffee from the fascinating siphon bar, which was the first of its kind on the East Coast, then go buy some shoes, or order Taiwanese/Cambodian breakfast or lunch.

One of the best authentic Latin restaurants in D.C. Despite its faded, unassuming exterior and wrought-iron bars -- vestiges of the neighborhood’s recent past -- this Salvadoran and Mexican eatery has been putting out affordable, excellent food for a couple decades. Dimly lit and always playing fútbol on TV for the regulars, Judy's makes you feel as though you've been transported to a local eatery somewhere in Central America. But all are welcome here: the staff is extremely attentive, the menu is varied, and the drinks are stiff.

Blues Alley, the historic Georgetown jazz haunt, has hosted so many musical greats in its 50 years it’s mind-boggling. Everyone from Wynton Marsalis to Jimmy Rushing to Dr. John has graced its stage, yet it has never lost its original charm.

But the real play when ordering isn’t to go with one of their all-star burgers -- it’s ponying up to the Jalisco Frito, a sandwich combining breaded, buttermilk-brined chicken breast, a sweet and spicy habanero barbecue sauce, pepper jack cheese, two strips of thick-cut bacon, lettuce, and tomato. Also worth mentioning: The thing’s the size of a hubcap. You know you’re getting your money’s worth when you’ve taken six bites and have yet to get to the bun.

Any discussion about the DC music scene invariably includes mention of the 9:30 Club, and justifiably so: Now in its 35th year of existence (and 20th in its present location at 915 V Street NW), the 9:30 has been host to many of the most influential and important musical acts of the 20th and 21st centuries -- from Dolly Parton to 2 Chainz -- and it is as much a Washington, DC landmark as the monuments and the Smithsonian museums. This is a music venue that awes and inspires in equal measure and has served as the cornerstone of DC’s emergence as a must-play tour destination for acts from around the world.

The Howard Theatre has been a landmark of the Shaw neighborhood for over 100 years, originally opening in 1910, and enjoying its third and most recent renovation in 2012. The iconic Beaux-Arts building is on the US National Register of Historic Places, and not just for looks: The venue launched the careers of many artists -- most famously Ella Fitzgerald, winner of an open mic night contest at the Howard in the early 1930s. Since then, everyone from Stevie Wonder and James Brown to Big Boi and Thundercat have played there, and the Howard continues to pride itself on being “The People’s Theatre,” bringing a wide array of unique artists and performers from every genre and demographic possible.

Atlas Arcade is unique in that it might be the only bar that actually features video games in the classic sense, as opposed to board/parlor games. Ideal for children of the '80s, this H Street corridor oasis has plenty by way of classic arcade machines, including Street Fighter II, Big Buck World, Cruis’n Exotica, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. It doesn’t hurt that the games are pretty affordable ($0.50/game), as are the primarily canned selection of beers -- it is H Street, after all.

Penn Social is basically an adult Chuck E. Cheese’s -- this cavernous, two-story sports bar bombards you with light, sounds, and movement from every direction and angle. You can definitely scratch your gaming itch here: they have board games, shuffleboard, Skee-Ball, foosball, Pop-A-Shot, giant Jenga, and a giant Connect 4 -- basically, there’s no shortage of ways to (not-so) quietly assert your dominance over your friends and coworkers. While the food is “meh” and there’s occasionally a cover charge on weekends, the drinks are stiff enough and competitively priced.

The first distillery to open its doors in DC post-Prohibition aptly named its signature product after a bootlegger rarely seen without his signature green felt fedora. George Cassiday originally sold booze on the sly to Congressmen out of a House office building. But, after loose lips got him caught, he bounced over to the Senate where folks were (and still are?) better at keeping quiet. Cassiday’s son lives in the area, and was the first to receive a case of gin.

Salty greeting cards, books by local authors, and events like ‘adult coloring books and (free) wine.’ This relatively new addition to the Eastern Market neighborhood (April ‘16) is community-focused and offers two free book clubs each month (fiction and non) as well as a consignment sales program to help support independent authors.
Kitchen contraptions! Each piece is thoughtfully curated and displayed in a way that begs you to think about where it might have a special place in your home. The prices are a little steep, but if you feel guilty splurging on yourself consider it a fun spot for gifts.

Eastern Market’s Hill’s Kitchen is a great place for newlyweds, new homeowners, and newbie chefs looking to stock their kitchens for the first time with high-quality classic pieces. It’s also a perfect place to find a present for the skilled chef in your life. There’s a fair bit of fun and whimsy in the store with their state-themed cookie cutters, and DC-centric accessories, but the staff isn’t playing around (which is good, because, well -- knives).

The Eastern Market is a massive celebration of all things food, centered around a huge indoor market selling any ingredient you could hope for. Add to that a Tuesday farmer's market, a weekend outdoor market for arts and crafts, AND a flea market, and you get the Eastern Market.

Sure, you can just show up and get corralled into a "visitor center." But if you want to experience the Capitol in a real way, contact your senator's office, and arrange for a tour. You'll need to actually plan for this -- like three months in advance -- but it's so worth it. See if you can't coax them into letting you see the weird little subway under the Capitol, too. Free.

What it is: A public pool It's free to DC residents -- just don’t forget to pack your driver’s license in your pool bag. Non-residents can fill out an online pool pass form and pay a small fee. Banneker is quite an expansive public pool with diving boards, lap lanes, and an occasional "adult swim". Plus, people on Yelp can’t shut up about the "great people watching".
