Service : 8/10 Ambiance: 9/10 (old Italian household style, which was nice) Drinks: you have got to get the fennel martini. It's soooooo good. 10/10 for drinks. Food: 1) bread service: I've had better bread at the local bakery. Bread was also cold. The butter was good though. 2) lychee salad was really good. Flavor was amazing. Husband had the tuna appetizer which he really liked. 3) We had the sweet pea and the tteokboki pasta. The tteokboki one was really good but the sweet pea one wasn't really for us. A little too sweet. 4) miso sea bass: my husband had this and he didn't like it at all. He said the sauce tasted like move theatre butter but not in a good way. 5) the bread pudding was really really good Overall: food hit when it did and didn't when it didn't. The long wait time between meals had an opposite effect and made us feel more stuffed. We timed it and the wait time between meals was close to 15-20 mins. Would go back for the drinks and dessert but nothing so spectacular about the food. read more

Finally made it to Rose's Luxury to celebrate me and my boyfriend's anniversary and let me just say--it absolutely lives up to the hype. This was a great experience from the setting, to the food and the service. My favorite dish if the night? The pork and lychee salad! I can't even fully explain the flavor--it's sweet, savory, tangy, a little spicy--it's really complex and absolutely amazing. Honestly, one of the best appetizers I've ever had in my life. Our subsequent courses including the lamb manfredi and the adult happy hour meal equally delectable and delicious. The service was top-notch too. Our server, Bonnie, was so attentive and genuinely warm. She made sure we had everything we needed and even surprised us with a few dishes. If you're into trying unique dishes and having a dining experience that feels special, do yourself a favor and book a table here. Rose's Luxury is 100% worth it! read more

I went out with a few friends and we had a wonderful experience at Rose's Luxury. The Italian beef sandwich pasta was really good. The service was also great, and the ambiance is pretty cozy as well. I'll definitely be back. read more

Me and my wife went to Rose's Luxury over the weekend. the spot is one of the most popular and well known restaurants in DC. Tried to make a reservation for the table but could only get bar seating. Street parking is available. Rose's Luxury offers "Choose your own adventure" menu (No a la carte), priced at 128 per person. Starter- 1 per person (4 options) Pasta- 1 per person (3 options) Main- share between 2 people (2 options) Dessert- share between 2 people (3 options) Starter- I ordered the Pork and lychee salad, signature dish, and it lived up the hype. The combination of pork, lychee, onion and peanuts created a surprisingly balanced combo. It reminded me of the taste of Thai dishes. My wife ordered the Jumbo Green Asparagus with Pineapple Aioli, it was special and flavorful but a bit too heavy. It felt overwhelming after few bites. Pasta- I ordered the Tomato Tteokbokki. A very fun dish, Tteokbokki is a korean classic dish. The rice cake paired so well with the Italian style tomato sauce. The texture of the rice cake is excellent. My favorites of the night. My wife ordered the Colonne Pompeii serving with pea cream and mint, again, very similar to the asparagus dish, very interesting flavor but kinda too much after few bites. Main- Miso Glazed Cod Fish, perfectly cooked with a miso glaze that was well-balanced. Dessert- I ordered the Mole Negro Sticky Toffee Pudding with Horchata Ice Cream. The ice cream was served with peanuts and it was fantastic, the pudding itself was just okay. My super favorite for the night is the Truffled Madeleines, the starter bread. Overall, Great experience, great food, great services, worth experiencing at least once. Just the pricing point is hard to justify. Spent $400 for 2 people. The portion for the main (Sharable with 2 people) was just a little bit too underwhelming. read more

We've been to Roses about three or four times back when there were no reservations and we had a great dinner each time. We decided to come back with some family to try things out. Reservation for 4 at 9PM on Saturday was easy to get and we got it 3 days before. We arrived 20 minutes early and they were more than nice enough to seat us. The menu was very different to us since it was coursed out per person. We all decided to do the "Wanna Party?" Option for drinks which is their wine pairing. We ordered their famous Pork and Lychee for the table, all their pastas (Tteokbokki, Lamb Manfredi, Sweet Pea Pasta), and two Adult Happy Meals. We got their truffled Madeline's to start and they were so buttery and well truffle-y. On our first full course, we got the Pork and Lychee Salads along with a gift of Squash Blossom Rangoons which were very good. The salads were delicious as I remember. Everyone at the table raved about it. They accidentally brought me the Charred Cabbage initially but let us keep it and brought me the salad. Who knew cabbage could taste this good. The pastas were also a hit around the table. You couldn't find a bad thing in these dishes. The tteokbokki was sweet and spicy and might've had the best sauce. The sweet pea and the lamb pastas were also so well done. The Adult Happy Meals were to share but they were more than enough for two people per meal. We got one of them covered in truffle and bechamel sauce and it just made it so much richer. The fries being dusted with ranch powder was a nice touch. The desserts we got, the Tres Leches cake and the Mole Negro Sticky Toffee Pudding were so decadent and great to share. The cake was huge and almost too big to finish. We were so stuffed after. The service was A1 from everyone who served us. The pairings were spot on and delicious each time. Definitely worth the add on. The gift bag with the tote and juice was an amazing touch. I forgot how much I loved this place and this dinner helped re-solidify my love for Rose's. Hope I can come back soon! read more

I will say this place was amazing with my tables various dietary restrictions and allergies. Even for myself who can't have nuts they made sure I knew what I couldn't have and if able tp be modified they did so and brought 1 modified and 1 not modified. Which helped so the table could enjoy. We had a big enough ta ke where we were able to try everything. And let our waiter lead us. Food was good. My friends loved the Madeline's and I did not.( I don't like truffles anything) Pork lychee salad was amazing. We all loved this! Modified and unmodified. My table really like the cabbage as well. Even thing else I couldn't have or it was just decent. Lamb Manfred was a little chef boyardee ish to me. But my friends loved it. Tteokbokki same thing but a little chewy. Sweet pea pasta was different and hands down the best in this section to me. Mint is different and 1 person at our table didn't like it. Hands down always say yes to ribs. At this point we were eating with our hands. Cause the ribs were amazing. Happy meal they were able to bring us an impossible version and regular. I wouldn't get the burger over ribs. Ranch powder was a little too much for us on the fries. But the side stiff drink...amazing and refreshing that we order a round of stiff drinks. None of the desserts were for me but my table enjoyed them. Tres leches or the fruit plate were what they liked. We got the big table along the back, it was great, hooks on the wall for jackets. Really it was a good time coming and hanging out here. Parking was a little confusing. There are spaces out front and meter parking, or street if can find space. Some meters just weren't working correctly. If not super late, most likely they won't ticket. read more

110% would come back Lovely service - servers were very attentive and accommodating, especially as one person in my party was 1 hr late. Food was fantastic. each dish was packed with flavor and each was interesting. I loved the experience and couldn't recommend it more for a celebratory meal!! read more

The ambiance felt like a trendy city restaurant with open face brick walls and string lights. The service was amazing from start to finish. All the staff made us feel very welcome and although it was a little noisy, they explained all the dished to us. I liked the pre-fixed menu with options for 5 courses. The server suggested to pick a few and do family style so we could try everything. That's one of my favorite reasons to dine with friends. Having 4 people, we got to try the whole menu. We started with bread service. The caraway honey butter was so good I wanted to put it in my pocket. I thought the food was creative and tasted good overall. My favorites were the lychee salad and the beef back ribs. Of the pastas, I liked the sweet pea the most but if I could, I would've just swapped it out for a larger portion of the lychee salad. I found the lamb pasta and mussels to be underwhelming. They were both a little under-seasoned and the mussels had a strong grassiness to it from the dill or parsley that was in it that I wish were balanced out with something else. I also loved the desserts. We got the mole sticky toffee pudding with horchata ice cream and the "fruit plate" which was a refreshing layered bing soo shaved ice with Nilla wafers at the bottom. Both were pretty and delicious! They also brought out an additional dessert for my birthday. Small slices of southern chess pie. It was like a dense blondie. Really good but super sweet! We were all stuffed by the end of dinner. I would definitely recommend this as a place to celebrate. It felt really special and I enjoyed my time there. read more

Had a wonderful evening at Rose's for my anniversary. We had reservations at the chef's table right when they opened (which they open on the dot!). They made extra effort into making the night a special one. From decor to staff- everything was detail-oriented and delightful. The pork and lychee salad is a must (as they recommended). The sticky toffee pudding is probably the only thing I could've parted with but that is on me and my personal taste. Overall, I had a great experience and would love to return for another special evening. read more

After hearing many many many good things I was really happy I finally got to try Roses! The restaurant itself is so gorgeous, 2 floors with lots of seating. When my partner arrived we did have to wait a little for our table and some people were still waiting for theirs. The service was nice. One note to remember if you're thinking about coming here is that they really want you to love your time here. We ended up getting to try all the pastas in the Italian sandwich one was a little underwhelming. Our absolute favorite is the pea pasta if you want to try someone refreshing that's what I would pick. They also sent us home with juices and the most amazing muffins for the next day read more

Finally had the pleasure of visiting this place. and everything was spot on, from the hostess to those waiting on us, and of course the food. My husband and I had gone on my birthday, and no surprise, the restaurant made our night extra special. The three things I chose off the menu were, the pork and lychee salad, colonne pompeii, then we shared the deep-fried pork, which also came with fried pig ears...hehe, different indeed. each dish was unique, beautiful, and had all kinds of taste buds awakening. Somehow by the end, we managed to finish the toffee pudding for dessert, and a chess pie they had brought to the table, special for my birthday. Oh, did I mention that they send you home with muffins and a little juice for the morning after? NO restaurant has ever sent me home with breakfast after paying the dinner bill! lol. When your courses start, you'll probably think you'll leave hungry, but trust me, you won't. No food pics! I was too busy enjoying every moment and every bite. Yes, it's expensive, but worth a special visit...enjoy! read more

2nd time here- same lovely servers- they are like welcoming friends throwing a fun dinner party just for you! Brick wall and string lights- cosy and charming. Food is fancy, eclectic and unpretentious. "Gonna party" cocktail/wine pairing inventive and super fun. I can't wait to come back! read more

Rose's Luxury has been on my list for over 10 years, so when my boyfriend and I moved back to VA/DC metro a few months ago, I knew this was a must visit for us. My boyfriend's 32nd birthday was this past Saturday, and I made a reservation a month or so in advance for a table for 2 in the dining room. Everything was perfect, and the dining experience at Rose's Luxury could not have been any more excellent! Our server Chris was great, very nice and down-to-earth. He was always within an earshot if we needed anything. Service here is on point: super attentive yet not overbearing like some other places can be. Each time a different staff member came out with our dishes, they had a description and threw in their own thoughts or personality with it. Loved it! The 5-course "choose your own adventure" was presented to us. Upon asking, I informed Chris of my kiwi allergy. He let us know a chef would mark up the menu to let us know what was safe to order. Chris could tell how bummed I was (that the beef ribs entree that I was looking forward to trying - was in fact- made with KIWI marinade!), so he informed us they could make an exception if we wanted to order BOTH: my boyfriend could enjoy the ribs, and I could order the mussels. This was SO generous, and kind. Right off the bat this showed me how understanding, accommodating, and thoughtful the amazing staff is at Rose's Luxury! I never had a restaurant go above and beyond like Rose's did for us that night. The challah bread to start was super soft, and the butter ribbons were beautifully presented. We had the grilled jumbo asparagus w/ pineapple aioli soon after, and the flavors were great and crispy jalapeno on top was a good contrast. I have siblings and friends who have dined at Rose's so my boyfriend and I were anticipating the famous Pork & Lychee salad. To our surprise, a staff member brought out not ONE but TWO for us; "So you don't have to share". We really appreciated this, and loved stirring together the flavors of our individual dishes, commenting to each other how delicious the flavors were! Third course had the option of 2 out of 3 pasta dishes (I was initially skeptical to be honest since I'm not usually a huge pasta fan when dining out). However, Rose's was on point with flavors!!!! We were so surprised, in the best way. Sweet Pea Pasta was bright, green, and bursting with fresh and sweet flavors. Spring Lamb Manfredi was so light and refreshing; my boyfriend and I agreed we never had ragu like that before. Our favorite was the sweet pea but honestly try both because they're different but both amazing. Lastly, my boyfriend had the "Brother's Beef Back Ribs and I had my mussels with fish for our main entrees. The girl who presented our dishes looked me in the eye, and gently reminded me that the ribs have Kiwi in them in a humorous way, stating she's pescatarian and sometimes would feel tempted too. This was a nice laugh, and so my boyfriend and I both dove into our meals. The mussels and fish were cooked well, (although the sauce was a tad sweeter than I expected), everything was great. My boyfriend said he enjoyed his ribs. Near the end of our meal, a really nice staff member came out, and she had a cool flower candle and mini dessert bars already plated for my boyfriend's birthday. She made sure we were ready, and then lit the candle. To our surprise, the table next to us and to the right of us also wished him Happy Birthday. Until everyone just spontaneously burst into song together and the staff at Rose's joined in as well. This was such a fun memory and we will always cherish the kindness of our neighboring diners and the whole entire team at Rose's Luxury! This made our night - actually our whole weekend. A great memory and amazing dining experience. They also gave us a DIY pasta kit to-go bag at the end of the meal! Thank you to the whole team at Rose's; my boyfriend and I are so grateful! He had a wonderful and unforgettable birthday at the restaurant. Overall, TLDR; please don't hesitate to go to Rose's Luxury for a special occasion, whether it be an anniversary, birthday, leaving a bad job, etc or any other reason. You'll have such a memorable time with amazing staff, service, atmosphere, and delicious food!! read more

I can't say enough good things about my experience at Rose's Luxury. From start to finish, everything was absolutely exceptional. I was celebrating a special occasion, and our waitress, Mel, went above and beyond to make it unforgettable. She was warm, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful; it honestly felt like having a close friend take care of us. Every detail was perfect, thanks to her. And the food... absolutely phenomenal. Every dish was creative, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. You can tell how much care and passion goes into every bite. Between the incredible service and the extraordinary meal, this was one of the best dining experiences I've ever had. I'm so grateful to Mel and the entire team for making my celebration so special. Can't wait to come back and the cornbread was delicious! read more

Rose's Luxury is one of those places that's been on my list forever, and finally going felt like stepping into an experience rather than just a dinner reservation. First off, the space is surprisingly intimate - warm lighting, cozy corners, and a kind of understated charm that makes it feel special without being overly formal. It doesn't scream "Michelin," but that's honestly part of what makes it so enjoyable. It feels personal. The whole "choose your own adventure" prix-fixe concept is actually a lot of fun. You pick your dishes, mix and match, and it turns dinner into something interactive instead of just ordering and waiting. We started with the bread service, and wow--soft, pull-apart milk bread with miso butter that melts right in. It's one of those simple things done so well that you immediately know you're in for a good night. The pork and lychee salad absolutely lives up to the hype. It hits that perfect balance of sweet, savory, and slightly tangy, with layers of texture that keep every bite interesting. Definitely a must-order. From there, we tried a mix of pastas and mains. The Colonne Pompeii stood out--creamy, slightly sweet from the pea base, with feta adding just enough salt to balance everything out. The miso-glazed fish was another highlight--perfectly cooked and rich without feeling too heavy. And somehow, even after all that, dessert still found a way in. The fried bread pudding and lemon meringue-style desserts were both incredible--decadent, fun, and a perfect ending. What really ties everything together is the service. It's warm, attentive, and genuinely enthusiastic without ever feeling rehearsed or stiff. You can tell they want you to enjoy yourself, not just impress you. Now, it's not a cheap night out. By the time you add drinks, it adds up. But it's also the kind of place where you're not just paying for food - you're paying for the full experience, and it delivers on that. And honestly, after a meal like that, you kind of just want to keep the night going. We ended ours back at home with Pressure Deliveries, a premium same-day cannabis delivery service - super smooth, super convenient, and the perfect way to wind down after a rich, indulgent dinner. If you're celebrating something, visiting DC, or just want a dining experience that feels a little different and memorable, Rose's Luxury is absolutely worth it. read more

Had never been before and didn't read any reviews but there was a word of mouth endorsement so we went. Everything was fine. Small plates were ok, not out of this world. The menu was limited and the small plates were shared, even the entree. They don't want you to eat very much, apparently. Then the bill came. Completely overpriced. Two people, nearly $500 with tip and four cocktails. The food overall was unremarkable. Service was excellent. Won't go back. read more

Came to Rose's luxury on Valentine's Day after making reservations 2-3 weeks in advance. Was my second time coming in over 6 years. I may have done a take out in between. They change their menu quite often and it's no surprise that they are a Michelin star restaurant with their excellent service and carefully prepared food. However a few things caught my attention this time around. First thing was that cleanliness was lacking. I noticed crumbs on my chair prior to sitting down when I was seated right at open. The linen napkin smelled like an old rag, stale oil, washed with only water and left to air dry in a pile. I didn't even bother asking for another linen bc my partner's linen also smelled terrible. I just used it to wipe the seat before I sat down. Went to the bathroom to wash my hands before and after. Since it was Valentine's Day, they had a prefixed menu in which everything was chosen besides the entree and dessert. The starter was the Lychee salad which never leaves the menu as I was told. It was refreshing and had a nice spicy kick to it. However, it was very salty. In fact everything served in this meal was overly seasoned with salt. It took away from enjoying the ingredients. The seafood tower had mussels, kusshi oysters and prawn. The mussels and oysters had a pretty fishy taste. Probably not fresh bc it was prepped beforehand. I saw a whole row of these seafood towers while I walked past the kitchen when I got to the restaurant 30 minutes before I even got this served. The prawns were delicious and went well with the sauce. The Italian style beef sauce mafaldine pasta was probably my least favorite dish. Maybe it is a fresh pasta thing. The pasta felt overdone, it was doughy and mushy. The sauce was also heavily seasoned with salt. I kept chugging water during this meal that my cup got refilled every time there was a new dish. I normally do not drink much water during a meal. My favorite part of the experience this evening was the beef tenderloin. The meat was extremely tender and it was not seasoned too heavily so it really made the meat shine. The hash brown block was nothing too special besides being fried in duck fat which gave it a crispy texture. Dessert we chose their cream puff. It had hints of pistachio, white chocolate, cheese, yuzu and the puff itself had a nice texture. Overall, the dessert was a nice little sweet treat, but I wondered about the chocolate soufflé that I didn't get to try. Before leaving, they gave us a valentine's day goodie bag with two muffins inside along with a tiara. I had some high expectations returning to Rose's luxury however I was pretty disappointed by the lack of cleanliness, overwhelming amount of salt used, and the cost. It was not worth $400+ for the quantity and quality of the food served. The food was way too salty for me. The service was excellent. read more

Fantastic experience. I went once with a party of six back in 2016 or so. And then, back again after they earned a Michelin star. Inventive menu. The format changed a little bit. If they ever have strawberry pasta, go directly to that and do not pass GO. read more

Rose's Luxury - New American Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Had such a memorable birthday dinner at rose's luxury! I highly recommend dining here for their tasting menu. The menu changes periodically but it seems that their lychee salad is a staple and has stayed around. Everything we got was uniquely made. I loved the adult happy meal which was a wagyu burger with truffles and a special drink. All drinks were fantastic as well btw. What was somehow even better than the food was the service-- the service is superb here, some of the best I've had in DC! read more

Had a great valentines dinner her! The pork and lychee salad is worth the hype. Service was stellar.

The service at Roses' was fantastic. Everyone was very nice, attentive and friendly and our server gave detailed descriptions of the dishes which made us feel confident in the choices we made for our meal. With that said, the food left a lot to be desired for. Many of the flavors over-lapped and I found everything to either have bread crumbs or be too sweet. With all of this said the dessert was very good. As someone who has visited multiple Michelins star restaurants in DC I would not recommend this over other Michelin star / bib gourmand restaurants around DC. For the price the meal felt very underwhelming. read more

Rose's Luxury was an amazing dining experience. Every employee there was kind and enthusiastic. Especially our server Lindsay was awesome! The environment was beautiful and dimly lit with little lotus flowers on the table. I loved the style of the menu where you each pick an option for the three courses but then you can share everything and try a lot of food. The portions are small individually but we got very full quickly. Some highlights: I loved the ocean-flavored, room temperature pasta. Wow, it was very different from anything I've had before but was super delicious. I also enjoyed the squash blossom Rangoon. On of the servers accidentally brought us a third appetizer, so we unexpectedly got to try the cucumber salad. The cucumber salad ended up being one of my favorites. The lobster main dish was amazing. I wish I had more room in my stomach to finish it. The server brought a special birthday surprise for my friend! It was so cute and the cake bites were great! We also had the baklava sundae. I liked the sundae but I always find rose flavor too overpowering, and the rose whipped cream was no exception. My one critique is that unlike other Michelin restaurants I have been to, I could not figure out the underlying concept. The menu draws from a lot of cuisines, including Korean, Italian, Jewish, Greek. If the concept is really good food, then they nailed it! I just wasn't sure how it all came together. A+ for service, experience and food! I would come back! read more

What a great time Jim G. and I had at Rose's Luxury! Lindsay and team provided outstanding service, helpful, efficient, and friendly! Love the vibe of the place, too. Decor is a great mix of old-style building mixed with modern and contemporary art, and a great playlist to top it all off! We were in love even before having the food! I love the "Choose Your Own Adventure" style of the menu ($118/pp). Rose's Luxury is immediately signposting that this is not your run-of-the-mill stuffy Michelin start spot (though I enjoy those, too). We took some of Lindsay's recommendations and also went with the "Ready to Party" drink pairing ($75/pp). With a mix of our choices and a few things thrown in from Lindsay and the kitchen, we enjoyed: Lychee Salad (this one is always on the menu, Lindsay says), Tuna Avocado, Lamb Manfredi, Pea Pasta, Tteokbokki , and the Beef Back Ribs. I do wish we were more hungry, as there was so much food we couldn't finish. We did take the ribs back to our hotel room and had a glorious breakfast! We enjoyed some wine, champagne, a couple cocktails, and, with the very decadent Mole Toffee Pudding, mini Espresso Martinis. Everything was prepared with much love and flavor and was such a unique take on Michelin-level fare. As they change the menu based on what's fresh and what's in season, I would definitely be stopping in periodically if I were local to the area. Reservations were easy to make online. Do your taste buds and favor and make yours now! read more

We had a very enjoyable experience celebrating our anniversary at Rose's. The servers were very friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the dishes. We started with the challah bread and honey butter (bonus points for the creative butter ribbon). Then, we moved on to the appetizers: the pork and lychee salad, and the caviar and ice cream. The caviar and ice cream sounded very interesting. It was enjoyable but a bit underwhelming. The pork and lychee salad surprised us the most because we didn't expect all the ingredients to come together so well. We also tried the pasta al limone and mentaiko spaghetti. Both were delicious, but the mentaiko spaghetti definitely stood out more. We then shared the beef back ribs, which were cooked perfectly and not chewy at all. For dessert, we ended with a generous serving of the coconut tres leches, which was very light as described and not overly sweet. Let me know if there are any further adjustments you'd like! We also liked the ambiance as it was more of a casual fun vibe and the clean bathrooms were definitely a plus. read more

This is a prix fix menu, 115$ per person. GF options all around which was much appreciated. You start off with a bread service, choose a greens, a pasta, then an entree to share for two.. and lastly a dessert. We actually got the pork and lychee salad gifted to us along with an extra "birthday" dessert for celebrating my friend recently becoming a mom. Service was entirely amazing. New plates with utensils are brought out within each course, water filled at all times, a full bar for any drink you'd like. The gf bread is a biscuit with a whipped honey butter. I opted for the fish roe and ice cream as my first--the roe paired really well with the sweetness of the ice cream, ttekboki as my pasta--a little too sweet for my liking but spicy and cheesy, shared the ribs as the entree--such a good soy sauce umami, and was given a coconut sorbet for my gf dessert--this was so creamy that it tasted more like an ice cream than anything. Drinks are a bit pricy here as well, going for about 16$ a drink. We left for two, spending 300$ pre tip. Ouch.... read more

Five stars for the food and 20 for the service. Honestly, one of the nicest and best birthday dinners we ever had. My guy and I celebrate our birthday on a day between mine (late April) and his (late May). We chose Rose's Luxury because of the great reviews. Lemme tell you, it is STELLAR. We didn't have a single meh, it's aight dish. Everything we ordered was delightful, surprising, clever, and delicious. Definitely get the caviar with ice cream and the pork and lychee salad (seriously, so many flavors in your mouth and you wanna lick the bowl clean ). The limone pasta was super delicious, the mentaiko pasta was so yummy. Mix the two together and you get magic in your mouth. Now let me talk about the service. Like I said, it was our birthday and they treated us like we were their favorite cousins. They gave us the signature lychee and pork salad to try because it was their most beloved dish. And for dessert, they gave us these delicious tiny nutty cakes with the COOLEST candle ever. Then they brought our our actual dessert, and let me tell you - I rode that struggle bus to finish it because it was incredible (it's the mole toffee pudding served with horchata ice cream.). Our server was kind, explained menu items, was attentive but never hovered. She had eyes in the back of her head because she'd be at the till then suddenly she's at our table asking how we were doing. We felt like they were genuinely happy we chose Rose's Luxury to celebrate our birthday. We needed wheelbarrows to cart us away. The plates were deceiving - by the time we got to the pastas, I was already full (I blame the bread service. That is dangerous!) Folks, come here for any occasion. You got through the week without homicide at the office? Go to Rose's Luxury. Went an entire day without yelling at your kids/significant other? Treat yo' self at Rose's Luxury. Celebrating a birthday? Rose's Luxury. read more

I took my wife to Rose's Luxury for her birthday. We wee looking for an excellent restaurant that provides an inspired gastronomic experience. The restaurant is somewhat expensive, for sure. But this was a special occasion and so we chose it. It's located in the Eastern Market area of the DIstrict, on an interesting street, across from a Marine Barracks. We heard the bugle sound as we approached the restaurant from our car. Street parking is reasonable in the early evening, some of it angle parking. The servers were very helpful and explained our experience well. Unfortunately, we were sitting under the A/C vent and cold air blew on us during the entire meal. The food at Rose's is interesting, but I was not overwhelmed. Perhaps a bit underwhelmed. There is not a wide choice of foods, the two entrees were fried pork and a cheeseburger. There is a vegetarian replacement for the fried pork, but it's a vegan 'seem alike' that was just OK. The best dishes were the 2 pastas, but again, these dishes weren't great as I would expected from a 'star' restaurant; just good. The highlight of the meal was our desserts and the very cute birthday candle that arrived along with dessert. Frankly, I was disappointed with the overall experience, certainly given the price of dinner. Oh well. read more

Rose's Luxury has been on my list for some time. I did have the opportunity to try the take-home menu during covid, and I loved it. So, needless to say, I was very much looking forward to this foodie experience! To start, the service was warm and welcoming. The waitress was helpful with selecting our wine for the evening and even sent over some extra items during our meal. We all thoroughly enjoyed each of the starters that we shared. The pasta course was also flavorful and unique. Rose's lost stars during the main course where we were very underwhelmed. We started with the fried chicken, which was a supplement on the menu. While it was flavorful, there was way too much breading. Since there were four in our party, we were able to have both the beef ribs and the lobster. Neither were amazing, and both had such limited "meat" that it was hard to enjoy. Thankfully, both the desserts that we had were great. Pro Tip: Go once they change the main course items on the menu! read more

We had an excellent time here! My fiancée and I came here to celebrate his promotion at work and they treated us really well. The food - Sooo good. We had the challah bread, caviar ice cream, lychee pork salad, all 3 pastas (they threw in the third as a kind treat), lobster entree, and tiramisu for dessert + an extra small dessert as a treat. Every dish was cooked so well and you can tell detail goes into the food. Portions are just enough and great for sharing. Ambiance and Service- Such a cute spot. Very cool vibes. We sat at the bar area and the bartender (i think her name was Ridley) was so kind and awesome. She was just an added bonus to an already wonderful evening. She had great recommendations and took care of us . As i do have a sesame allergy, I have to comment when i see restaurants go above and beyond to make sure i'm safe. My fiancee also does not eat beef. They provided us menu's marking which items were safe and which to avoid. This just added to a wonderful experience and made us feel super safe. read more

My daughter and I really enjoyed our experience at Rose's Luxury. The Customer Service was incredible and our food was delicious. I was especially happy because they had a gluten-free menu for me and the overall experience was top notch. Restaurant was absolutely beautiful and clean. Would highly recommend! read more

As far as one star michelin star restaurants go, the appetizers hit the mark! I was blown away by the pork and lychee salad, the mixture of funk-savoriness-sweetness in the truffled madeleines, and the grilled cucumber. I think these alone would make me want to come back. As for the pasta course and entree, I thought there were some room for improvements. I will say that as a Korean I was a little skeptical of the tteokboki a la vodka, but was pleasantly surprised that the spiciness level wasn't diluted and thought the rice cakes were well made. The Parmesan was a nice touch in place of the usual mozzarella. If there was a truffle option - I think it would take it up another level! I enjoyed the sweet pea pasta, but thought there could be another element of texture (like pine nuts). By the time, the main entree came out, I was stuffed!I wasn't too big of a fan of this course but liked the side of deep fried pig ears. Can acknowledge that the sauce was well made but felt it was a little too heavy and the pork needed to be salted a bit more. Dessert was fantastic and liked the balance of the heavy toffee pudding with the lighter ice cream/sobert(?) As a restaurant, I enjoyed everything but as a one star thought there were some room of improvements - thank you for the pleasant experience! read more

Went for my 30th birthday. The food was AMAZING. So much attention to detail in the food and service. My favorite was of course the lychee salad. The crispy pork with the fried pork ears was so unique and amazing. Everything worked so well together read more

I have always wanted to try out this Michelin star restaurant on the Capitol Hill. There used to be long lines waiting outside each day. I'm so glad that they take reservations now. The green facade was low key.. One could easily pass by without noticing the Michelin star restaurant. It was very spacious with two floors. The service was warm, pleasant and outstanding. The atmosphere was warmer and cozier upstairs than downstairs. The five courses set menu was simple and the price was on the higher end. Most dishes were creative with mixed flavors. But there were lots of carbohydrates and some greasy pasta. Dishes were meant to be shared. We tried : 5*Rose's bread: warm and soft challah bread w/caraway honey butter. Very good. I could have had the whole loaf by myself easily. 5*The pork and lychee salad: it was a delicious mixture of both textures and flavors. 4*Squash blossom rangoon: crab rangoon inside a squash blossom. It was warm and soft, served with both spicy and sweet sauces. 4*Grilled cucumber salad: creative cucumber salad topped with sunflower seeds and served with some kind of greenish seaweed sauce. 3*Pasta al limone dried italian spaghetti with butter & lemon. It was simple and greasy. Nothing fancy. 4.*tteokbokki a la vodka korean bar food meets the italian "red sauce joint" classic: it was like a gnocchi dish with a good texture. It wasn't as spicy as it was said on the menu. It actually had a sweet taste also. It's all carbs. 4.5*chef gerard's famed poached lobster. It was created in 1982 for the G7 gala in the hall of mirrors at the royal palace of versailles. The lobster was served with spinach, and a mixed mango and pepper sauce. It was very good, but I believe the lobster wasn't as tender as it should have been. One or two bites were chewy. 4*mole negro sticky toffee pudding: rich and sweet. read more

This is one of those spots that makes you question everyone's standards. They have good reviews but the food is bad. Not even flavor wise but just plain bad cooking. Maybe it was an off day but there are things like pasta texture that just can't be excused. AND they have a Michelin star too so I'm just confused. Starts off strong. I've been into the coconut & caviar flavor pairing so I loved this first dish Pork and lychee salad is an interesting combo and I could see why it's their signature. But the pork was unbelievably salty so a miss there. Pastas are their downfall We tried all three and the spaghetti was actually over cooked to the max. Soft and mushy. My college pastas have been better. The flavors feel very childish too? Especially the tteokbokki, tastes like the version you make for kids. Way too sweet. For the main, the ribs were rly chewy - meat quality was lacking and the flavor is just soy sauce, no depth. The real shock tho was the rice, so wet & mushy Lobster was fine. Tasted like the ones you get at hotel conferences. Desserts get better. They are def "slightly oversized." We enjoyed the baklava sundae - had the rose flavor, crunchy nuts, syrup, and flakes. Well done there. That being said, it's not worth the price. Do not recommend going. It was an inferior meal. Service is wonderful tho so makes the harsh comments a bit harder (but not impossible) to share. choose your own adventure $115 강력하게 비추하고 싶어서 올리는 곳. 미슐랭 별을 어떻게 받았을까 고민하게 되는 식사다. 시작은 괜찮다. 요즘 꽂혀있는 캐비어 & 코코넛 조합! 딱 여기까지 좋음. 포크 리치 샐러드는 독특한데 고기가 거이 소금 덩어리처럼 짰다. 제일 최악은 파스타. 나올때부터 불어터져서 식감이 매우 별로다. 소스도 뭔가 급식 스타일? 어떤 맛을 내려고 하는건지는 알겠는데 결과가... 화남. 메인도..... 화남. 갈비는 질기고 밥은 질고 랍스터는 호텔 컨퍼런스에서 먹는 맛이다. DC라서 그런걸 추구하는건가? 디저트는 무난한데 맘은 이미 떠남. 제발 가지마세요. read more

Honestly, overrated. Chewy cold dishes. The service was nice, but food underwhelming.

Uniqueness would best describe this cool place. Checking the 5 stars; perfect reservation timing, cheerful and friendly staff, we sat at the bar and were quite amused with our attentive waiter/bartender Daniel, our orders were served with perfect timing, and the last star: the food was incredible. This is not a place for an unadventurous eater. To the contrary if you like creativity and fabulous flavors and a good time - this is the ideal choice. My favorite dish - all of them. Reservations are a must. Enjoy. read more
