Where to Eat in Washington, D.C.

There’s no shortage of exquisite restaurants to dine at in Washington, D.C., and AKA White House is situated near some of the best. Just a 10-minute walk from AKA White House, and located with our sister property Hotel AKA Washington Circle, a.kitchen+bar offers seasonal small plates brought to you by the award-winning team behind High Street Hospitality Group and Ellen Yin, James Beard Foundation 2023 Outstanding Restaurateur. Pay homage to French café culture at Le Diplomate, with classic French dishes, a thoughtfully curated wine list, and a tempting cocktail program. For New American cuisine, try Rose’s Luxury, a historic townhouse converted into a cozy restaurant. When you’re ready for a taste of D.C. history, head to Martin’s Tavern — said to have once hosted JFK and Jackie O., this eatery is known for its American classics, dark wooden bar, and stained-glass light fixtures. We also recommend the modern brasserie vibe of The Smith and the market-driven menu at Founding Farmers DC.

Washington, D.C. Museums and Art Galleries

Washington D.C.’s museums and art galleries are some of the most celebrated in the country — if not the world. Across the street from AKA White House, the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian American Art Museum was the first building in the United States built specifically to be an art museum. The beautiful 1858 structure, just steps from the White House, is a National historic landmark that exhibits American contemporary craft.

Outdoor Activities in Washington, D.C.

A famously beautiful city, Washington, D.C.’s outdoor spaces are equally inspiring and relaxing. Take a walk down the National Mall from the United States Capitol Building to the Washington Monument to the Lincoln Memorial. Spend some time in the revitalized Wharf district, where new parks, restaurants, and bars have popped up along the Washington Channel.
