Reverie is a brand renowned for its transportive fine-dining experience, helmed by Chef Johnny Spero. Inspired by his global travels and Mid-Atlantic upbringing, Reverie offers a luxurious yet unpretentious atmosphere in the heart of Georgetown. The restaurant showcases masterful culinary creativity through a tasting menu that highlights coastal flavors, including Maryland crab and Spanish turbot. With a touch of humor and novelty, Spero's cooking harmoniously balances indulgence and casual charm.

Spero's culinary journey began at the age of 16 in Maryland, where he worked alongside James Beard award-winning Chef Johnny Monis. He further honed his craft at renowned establishments like Noma in Copenhagen and Chef John Shields' Town House before becoming the Executive Chef at José Andrés' Minibar. Spero's talent and innovation earned him accolades such as the Eater "Chef of the Year" and a spot as a contestant on the Netflix competition "The Final Table."

Reverie, opened in October 2018, is the culmination of Spero's more than ten years of daydreaming—a personal and intimate expression of his travels and skills. Reservations can be made online via Tock.
