Boqueria Dupont – 1837 M St., NW
Looking for a free-flowing brunch that isn’t always packed (or loud)? This Spanish restaurant—a Manhattan export with more than a decade under its belt—is a great choice, especially in patio weather. A lengthy a la carte tapas menu is accompanied by brunch specials like egg-topped paella or Spanish tortilla platters—all with the option of bottomless sangria and mimosas ($29) or an upgrade that adds Estrella beers, bloodies, and cava to the mix ($45 per person).
