I'd try St. Aslem for dinner. Nice stakehouse with some good plant based options and (if I recall correctly) some good whiskey.

If you really want to lean into the whiskey thing, Jack Rose is one of the best whiskey bars in the country. The food is just ok, but the whiskey selection is unparalleled.

For more options, Washingtonian just dropped a massive list of the best restaurants in DC. Most, but not all of it is higher end. I've been to 30ish places on the list and they're all excellent.

Seconding this suggestion. I like St Anselm too, but this has the added benefit of not needing to travel far post-dinner.

I've seen a lot of folks recommend St. Anselm, but I've never really gotten the hype. Maybe that's just me.

St Anslem is great. That whole area near union market can be good for a night out
