Harper McClure

The Federalist, Washington, D.C.

In a city with no shortage of power dining spots, the Federalist sets itself apart with an incredible farm-to-table menu created by Bacchanalia and Vidalia alum Harper McClure, a spectacular cocktail menu, and a DuPont Circle setting adjacent to the historic Madison hotel.
