Rank 14. Dōgon
African Caribbean
Inside the Salamander Hotel, Kwame Onwuachi's Dōgon presents small and large plates that blur African and Caribbean traditions with Washington swagger—the hoe crab arrives in its shell with shito and plantain cakes, the rum cake darkened by charred gooseberries. Each dish arrives composed and purposeful, the wine list equally considered, the whole operation bent on flavor over convention.

Rank 32. Fish Shop
Seafood
A waterfront dining room with nautical flourishes and a patio facing the marina; the kitchen channels its Scottish sister restaurant through a Mid-Atlantic lens, sourcing Chesapeake fish and local produce to craft dishes like Maryland crab crumpets and whole fried puffer fish, finishing with Virginia peanut tiramisu that recasts Italian tradition.
