Rose's Luxury

When I first moved to DC, Rose’s Luxury was recommended to me by seemingly everyone and their mothers. And it lived up to the hype. I really don’t know how, but they manage to be upscale yet laid back; super attentive but never annoying; fun and energetic yet professional; delicious and inventive yet somehow familiar and not trying too hard. Super comfy space and warm/inviting vibe. Excellent place for any occasion but especially for bday celebrations. Definitely go here!

We hadn't been to Roses for several years and certainly first time post-pandemic. The restaurant was busy but not packed on a Friday evening and we didn't have reservations. Since our prior visits, the style has changed to a choose your own adventure, though you can choose entirely on your own or shared with the table. $105 pre fixe Javier took care of us at the bar and was absolutely amazing from start to finish ensuring the birthday person felt celebrated/recognized. He was also very attentive, friendly, and made great recommendations on vino. Almost everything was good, with the exception of the short rib. We were very excited for this dish and even ordered a double quantity! However the dish was underwhelming - very little taste in the sauce and meat was dry. The slicing was also strange..... Again, javier made the meal memorable - we will definitely remember her!

This was the best restaurant experience I've ever had to date. They didn't miss once and the service went completely above and beyond. We sat in front of the kitchen and was like watching the food network the entire time. Highly recommend!

Do you consider yourself to be any level of “foodie”? Have you ever thought you might want to dabble in the foodie world? Do you not subscribe to labels and you just have tastebuds and you like to make them happy? Whichever it is, you must eat at Rose’s Luxury. Easily one of my favorite dining experiences to date. Everything that happened from the time we walked into and sat in the quaint, fun, energetic space was wonderful. The “Choose Your Own Adventure” menu was full of unique and interesting dishes. It isn’t easy to choose, so go with someone who can order other things…it’s a perfect sharing menu. I won’t review course by course, but I will say that if you do nothing else (and you eat meat) order the pork and lychee salad. Seriously. It was one of the most amazing dishes I’ve ever tasted. It somehow hit all five tastes with a mix of power and subtlety that thrilled with every bite. My wife and I couldn’t stop looking at each other with bewilderment and excitement and saying things that were probably just satisfied noises more than words. The service from the staff of friendly, beautiful souls was impeccable and exactly what you would expect from a restaurant of this quality. While the vibe is energetic but chill and not at all stuffy, the service was absolutely fine dining quality. If you can score seats at the chef’s counter, do it. It’s a great show to watch and the interaction with the staff is fun. I could rave on and on, but I won’t. Rose’s Luxury is a must if you love food. They deserve every accolade they receive.

Really enjoyed this spot for the tasting menu. Service was super accommodating and they have blankets for people who get cold easily!! The menu changes every so often but there’s one item that has stayed since opening which is the lychee salad. Food was super yummy and the staff gives good recommendations. I personally wasn’t a big fan of the cocktails due to the amount of sugar but they did taste good.
