"The menu at Seven Reasons changes often to keep up with chef Enrique Limardo’s whirling imagination. The Venezuela-born chef made a big splash in Baltimore before decamping to 14th Street in 2019, and he recently moved the restaurant to a larger location downtown in the CityCenterDC development. Here, hamachi tiradito looks like a museum-worthy piece of artwork; chicken and guava mole with green rice and yogurt cream; and The Melting Cloud dessert encases lemon-coconut pie in a haze of cotton candy. Gather friends to try bites of the small, medium, and large plates, which feature riffs on classics like mini arepas, and ceviche." - Adele Chapin
