Rose's Luxury can't make the top 100? I haven't been since pre-Covid. What happened?

It’s still excellent! Pineapple & Pearls and Little Pearl, from the same hospitality group, both made the list, so I wonder if they didn’t want to include the third. I’m not mad. Allows another spot a chance at publicity, which Roses has enough of.

I was there not terribly long ago and mostly it just hasn’t done anything new. I’m like 90% sure the menu was the same as when I was there years ago, or at least with some of the same items.

That's fair, but the items I had there (I think around 8 years ago?) were so good, I'm not sure they need to change much up tbh lol

Oh for sure. But the main thing about the top 100 in DC is there are ALWAYS new places and restaurant groups coming in. Unless a restaurant is continuing to be innovative, they aren’t worth listing.

I mean that is not for everything. 2 Amy’s has been on forever and I’m not sure they ever changed haha

But for most places it’s innovation-quality-service-atmosphere-presentation

Some places just get complacent

I went for my first (and only) time a few months ago and it was incredible in every way. No way there's 100 better restaurants than Rose's!
