The atmosphere is luxurious and the decor is inviting and energetic, which sets the stage for an epic girls night out. You can tell the owners really took the time and effort with each detail, from the eye catching signage outside, to the unique mounted griffin head decor. Their raw bar and dry-age steak room is beyond impressive and hands down beats out the neighboring competition which is why we had to spread the word! The Gryphon was top on our list when planning a recent girls night out because of their SUPPER CLUB feel and lively, upbeat environment. The DJ makes his appearance every Friday and Saturday night, which turns the place up a notch and transforms this fine dining restaurant into one of the hottest options for DC night life.

The Junior League does a great job with this event and they had an overwhelming turn out to shop.  It definitely put me in the holiday spirt and got me thinking of unique presents for friends and family.  There were so many cute shops set up, think of it as a market of Etsy stores with Santa Claus and Christmas music. The Junior League of Washington (JLW) is an organization of women committed to promoting voluntarism by raising funds to help with the complex issues of literacy in the greater metropolitan area of the District of Columbia.  A portion of the proceeds from this event went to their cause.  I highly recommend you check out this event next year! xoxo Sarah P
