Cork Wine Bar was a pioneer along D.C.’s now-bustling 14th Street corridor when it opened in 2008. Dozens of restaurants have opened since, but Cork remains packed most nights thanks to dependable food and affordable wine. The Eurocentric list offers about 200 options, including nearly 60 by-the-glass pours. Refreshingly, most bottles are priced between $50 and $100, so even non-enthusiasts feel comfortable ordering multiple bottles of wine.
