About this Event
A Social Club. A Dinner Party. The Two Things Were Made for Each Other.
We're hosting our first dinner party at Proper 21 Social Club; a New York-imported restaurant, bar, and social club.
Event Overview: A 3-course New American dinner. A polished, buzzy downtown room. A table full of interesting people you haven't met yet + seat rotations that guarantee you'll meet them all.
This is The Dinner Table — a dinner party with strangers that somehow feels like dinner with friends.
"The demographic of attendees was awesome, and exactly what I am looking for." — DC Guest
The Experience
- Mix & Mingle Session — Meet the group over a complimentary glass of wine before we sit down
- Seat rotations between courses so you meet everyone at the table
- Conversation prompts to keep things flowing (light and optional)
- Intimate group size — Curated for good energy and real connection
- Family-style dinner — 3 courses of New American cuisine + complimentary wine or beverage of your choosing
About the Venue
Proper 21 sits on K Street. It's a New York transplant from restaurateurs Rob Zahn and Will Strozier, who run the original Manhattan Proper and Proper West locations, and it brings their signature aesthetic with it: dim lighting, velvet wallpaper, leather banquettes, and a polished energy best described as "Tom Ford meets Thomas Edison."
The menu is elevated New American — think truffle fries that disappear in seconds, four-cheese truffle mac, smash burgers people drive across town for, and cocktails that hold up to the room. Equal parts restaurant, bar, and social club, it's the kind of downtown spot that makes a Thursday night feel like an actual occasion.
