New Heights is one of the great hidden gems in DC - great food, a marvelous wine list, and an unparalleled selection of liquors and mixers for a restaurant. The restaurant provides options for every palate, including vegetarians.
Appetizers and small plates are generally high-brow takes on low-brow fare. This is one of the rare restaurants that does equally well with meat and seafood. Their take on pork and steak rival the best steakhouses, and their fish dishes are typically inspired.
The desserts also display the innovative touches of the chef, often combining sweet and savory elements. What sets this place apart is its wine & liquor list, the finest such list in the city.
