Drinks & Nightlife
H Street – accessible by trolley, lots of restaurants and bars. Favorite Latin food is at Impala, with excellent margaritas. Favorite ramen is Toki Underground, but very long wait on Friday or Saturday nights. Same owners but different vibe, Maketto, but food equally good. Late night snack is good at Dangerously Delicious Pies, sweet and savory pies.
