Rose's Luxury
Rose's Luxury is a restaurant on Barracks Row in Washington, D.C., created by chef-owner Aaron Silverman.[1] It is known for not taking reservations which creates long lines, such that a nearby bar's top cocktail is called 'Waiting for Rose's' and linewaiters are reported to make up to thirty dollars an hour waiting in line.[2][3] President Barack Obama celebrated his 54th birthday at Rose's, after First Lady Michelle Obama previously ate at the restaurant.[4][5][6] The opening of Rose's Luxury in 2013 was the subject of a documentary, New Chefs on the Block.[7] Chef Aaron Silverman had prior experience at Momofuku and opened a fine dining restaurant next door to Rose's Luxury named Pineapple & Pearls in 2016.[8] Silverman has been the subject of a profile in the Washington Post, which characterized his work as mastery of 'the art of serious play'.[1]
