Rose's Luxury has been operating on Capitol Hill since 2013, tucked into a rowhouse at 717 8th Street SE. The restaurant works in small and shareable plates, the kind of format that turns a meal into a string of dishes passed around the table rather than a straight line through appetizer and entree.
Reviewers keep coming back to the same names: cacio e pepe, pork, catfish, soft shell crab, caviar, and a coconut ice cream that shows up again and again as a favorite. The building also holds a rooftop garden space, giving the restaurant a second setting beyond its close-quarters main room.
Michelin has awarded Rose's Luxury one star every year from 2017 through 2025 (with the exception of 2019 and 2020). The James Beard Foundation named it a Best New Restaurant semifinalist in 2014 and gave it a Best Chef win in 2016.
