Most D.C. power players spend their time in the Capitol or on K Street. Mike Isabella? He spends his time running a dozen acclaimed restaurants, and next year, he'll open a 10-restaurant food hall concept dubbed Isabella Eatery. Expect some familiar favorites like Graffiato and Kapnos, as well as a few new options—including a cocktail bar.
