HEIST

To enter the subterranean space: spot the unassuming outside entrance in Dupont Circle, walk through the street-level doors and down the stairs to discover a darkened, intimate space featuring black leather seating and tones of gold. Inside, stylish visitors will also find carefully crafted cocktails and top shelf champagnes. Open-format DJs spin from a Chesterfield leather booth outfitted with a 24-karat-gold buffalo skull—and they play everything from hip-hop to EDM.
