Rose's Luxury

Rose's Luxury is a New American restaurant at 717 8th St SE on Barracks Row in the Capitol Hill neighbourhood of Washington, D.C., United States. It holds one Michelin star in the 2025 guide and was named a best new restaurant in the United States in 2014, which helped establish it as one of the city's best-known dining destinations. The cooking is inventive and shared-plate in style, with seasonal dishes that combine unexpected flavours. The best-known dish is the pork sausage with lychee and habanero, which has become emblematic of the restaurant, and seasonal tasting plates make up much of the rest of the menu. The dining room is eclectic and warm, with a casual, convivial feel that contrasts with the formality of many starred restaurants. Noise levels are lively and there is no strict dress code, with smart casual clothing typical. The beverage programme includes cocktails, wine and beer, and the staff can advise on pairings with the shared plates. Prices are in the $$$ tier. Reservations are made through the restaurant's own site at rosesluxury.com/locations or by calling +1-202-742-3570. Dinner is served Wednesday and Thursday from 5:30pm to 9pm and Friday and Saturday from 5pm to 9:45pm, and the restaurant is closed Sunday to Tuesday per the restaurant's location page. Because of the Michelin star and the earlier awards, demand is high and prime evenings fill early, so booking well ahead is recommended. The Barracks Row location is within walking distance of the Eastern Market metro area and the Capitol, and the street has a range of other restaurants and bars. The restaurant suits groups who want to share several plates and diners who prefer a relaxed atmosphere at a Michelin-recognised table.
