How to Get a Reservation at Pineapple and Pearls in Washington DC
Pineapple and Pearls is a prepaid luxury tasting menu on Capitol Hill that releases seats in waves. Because seats are paid for at booking, you need to be on the listing the moment a release opens, then watch for resale-style cancellations.
The short answer
Pineapple and Pearls, Aaron Silverman's flagship luxury tasting menu on Capitol Hill, is among the most coveted seats in Washington DC. It uses a prepaid, ticket-style model with a high per-person price, so booking is more like buying a concert ticket than reserving a table, and a release can clear within minutes.

How the prepaid booking works
Seats are sold with prepayment at booking, which keeps no-shows rare and inventory tight. The exact per-person price, the deposit structure, and the release schedule have shifted over time and there have been conflicting public signals about the precise day and hour, so verify the current release timing and price on the live listing before you plan around a date.
- Treat the release like a ticket on-sale: account ready, card saved, dates decided.
- Both the dining room and the chef's counter sell out quickly, so have alternatives in mind.
- Cancellations and resale-style openings appear as guests' plans change, especially close to the date.
