Enigma Cocktail Lounge & Wine Vault in Washington, DC offers an outstanding culinary experience with a surprisingly fantastic vibe. The Sunday brunch is particularly noteworable, featuring delectable dishes like crabcake Benedict and the seasonal branzino, which were praised for their excellent presentation and taste. The Executive Chef, Dennis Clark, ensures a high level of personal service and makes sure everything is going well.
The restaurant's ambiance is equally impressive, with a stylish and cozy decor, plush seating, and low, seductive lighting. The music, a blend of Neo Soul, creates a perfect atmosphere for great conversation. The cocktails are creative, though some may lack consistency in taste. Standout menu items include the duck fat fries, U Street burger, roasted Brussels sprouts, and the mouthwatering warm brownie dessert.
Overall, Enigma Cocktail Lounge & Wine Vault is a must-visit destination, offering a fantastic dining experience with a vibrant, sophisticated atmosphere. The restaurant's Black-owned, Ethiopian heritage adds to its unique charm and appeal.
