DLeña Mexican Restaurant ·$$$

dLeña presents a modern approach on classic Mexican fare. As featured in the 2022 & 2023 editions of the MICHELIN Guide DC, the concept celebrates "leña," or firewood, and the nuanced flavors smoke can impart on both its wood-fired food, and smokey mezcal and tequila-centric menus.
