Washington D.C., District of Columbia
Rooftop drag brunch over the Wharf
Chef Nicholas Stefanelli's sprawling Italian food hall anchors the Wharf's waterfront, with a market, an all-day cafe, a trattoria, and a rooftop terrace looking out over the Washington Channel. The cooking leans regional and serious, from the same team behind Michelin-starred Masseria, but the rooms never feel stuffy. For the LGBTQ+ crowd, the reason to book is the rooftop Elevate Drag Brunch on the first and third Sunday of the month, hosted by Jasmine Blue with a rotating cast of DC queens, mimosas, and chef-prepared bites that sit well above the usual brunch-buffet fare.
