The city somehow seems bigger than it actually is looking through Estuary’s floor-to-ceiling glass windows. Maybe it’s because the restaurant, on a high floor of the Conrad Hotel, is itself massive, so much so that you’re practically guaranteed a seat anytime of night. But it’s a bar stool we come for, especially to begin or end a night downtown. Estuary walks the line between serving comforting late night (until 12am) snacks like chicken tenders and shrimp cocktail and elegant, DC-themed drinks. Get an Air and Space cocktail, a round of tenders, and look out at the city lights.
