Go Fish: Sushi-Ko Lands on List of D.C.’s Top Restaurants

Filed under: Chevy Chase, Md.,Glover Park, N.W.,Northwest, D.C. — Scott D @ 12:38 pm on February 7, 2012

Raw deal: Sushi-Ko specializes in putting a modern spin on traditional Japanese fare. Above, a dish of marinated squid gunkan sushi. (avlxyz via Flickr)

Sushi-Ko has quite a distinction: It’s the city’s oldest sushi restaurant, first opening in November 1976, making it more than 35 years old.

Today, it has two locations, one in Glover Park in Northwest and another in Chevy Chase. Both locations made Washingtonian Magazine’s list of the “100 Very Best Restaurants” for 2011. Here is the Washingtonian’s review.

Another unique feature of Sushi-Ko is that it has an ethos page (and they’re not even Greek!). Here, they tell us they practice something called “the ‘cuisine of subtraction.’” Further, they state it’s “the underlying principle of our entire operation, serving as the foundation in everything from the selection of materials to the design of our restaurant’s interior.”

OK, that’s a bit esoteric, but we’ll take their word for it. And this “cuisine of subtraction” seems to be working, given both the aforementioned ranking from the Washingtonian and these positive 2008 write-ups in The Washington Post, featuring the Chevy Chase location.

Along with sushi, Sushi-Ko also serves up salads, soups, small dishes and a variety of hot dishes, including chicken yakitori, grilled baby octopus, rock shrimp tempura and seared lobster, among others.

Here is their menu.

I’m not going to pretend I know the nuances of raw fish; I only know I like to eat it. And something tells me you do too if you’re still reading this post.

Expect to pay around $30 per person at Sushi-Ko for food, and add another $10 or so if you knock back a couple, which many will.

Probably to frustrate editors, there are different hours of operation for each Sushi-Ko, and the differences can be quite persnickety. Just click the contact link at the bottom of their site to view the hours. They are open every day at both locales; the main differences seem to be that Glover Park doesn’t serve lunch on weekends and stays open a little later than its Chevy Chase sibling.

One thing they do have in common: They’re both located on Wisconsin Avenue.

The Chevy Chase location is a short stroll from Metro’s Friendship Heights station on the Red Line.

The Glover Park site isn’t very close to a Metro station, but depending where you rent an apartment or if you’re a walker, you could certainly make the trot on foot.

Find Yourself This Saturday at the Duke Ellington School of the Arts

Filed under: Georgetown, N.W.,Northwest, D.C. — Scott D @ 12:31 pm on February 2, 2012

Shore thing: The Power of Meditation workshop promises to supercharge your mind and body. You'll have to supply your own tranquil beach and sunset, though. (iStock Photo)

Oh, I had to go and do it. I had to mention meditation at the ApartmentShowcase.com blog.

While some may scoff and others may be practitioners, I’m a bit agnostic toward the practice, which nonetheless goes back to the ancients.

Hey, whatever gets you through your stress-filled day. After all, we have a lot to be stressed about. Jobs (those lucky enough to have one), significant others, kids, rent, bills, SOPA … and these are only the ones I can mention.

Well, for all of you readers into this type of thing, the Power of Meditation: Energy Principles for Everyday Success is making a stop in Georgetown at the Duke Ellington School of the Arts on Saturday, February 4.

Duke Ellington School of the Arts
3500 R St., N.W.
Washington, D.C. 20007

Let’s let them tell it: “The Power of Meditation is a dynamic celebration of the body, mind, and spirit brought to you by Dahn Yoga & Health Centers, a national leader in health and wellness.”

This presentation allows the participant “to experience ancient Asian energy principles to help you align mind and body. Through simple meditations anyone can do, you will gain the power and ability to manage your thoughts and your energy, and therefore, your life.”

Well, if I can achieve just a sliver of that, sign me up!

The event features Ilchi Lee, founder of Dahn Yoga and the author of more than 30 books. While helping you achieve peace, Mr. Lee is probably making a bundle.

Hey look, if this is something you’re into, come on out and get in touch with your inner calm. Tickets can be had at the door for $40. Yes, that’s a bit steep, but dedicated practitioners and the curious may want to fork it over. Again, if it brings you some peace, go for it.

See, ApartmentShowcase.com really cares about its renters.

Really, we do.

Old Town’s Athenaeum Aims to Nurture Your Inner Artist

Filed under: Alexandria, Va.,Old Town Alexandria, Va. — Scott D @ 12:38 pm on January 31, 2012

In good taste: Visit the Athenaeum on Feb. 10 for a special red wine and chocolate tasting event conducted by experts from the Washington Wine Academy. (NCinDC via Flickr)

According to the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary, the word “Athenaeum” originally meant a school in ancient Rome that was used for the study of arts.

While the Athenaeum in present-day Old Town Alexandria is not a school in the traditional sense, as home to the Northern Virginia Fine Arts Association (NVFAA), it can indeed teach us all a thing or two about art, starting with the building itself. The Athenaeum has a colorful history, with the NVFAA site claiming it as “one of only two” examples of classical revival architecture in the City of Alexandria.

According to their mission statement, the NVFAA “is dedicated to the pursuit of excellence in all forms of art, and to establishing programs that will enrich the cultural life of Northern Virginia and the surrounding metropolitan area.”

What does this include? It includes art exhibits, lectures and demonstrations featuring regional and local artists, as well as performing arts events themselves. It also means classes in ballet, yoga and Pilates, computer instruction, and other educational programs.

The Athenaeum wrapped up presentation this month of Into the Light, an exhibition by Esther Yi and Victoria Shaheen.

In fact, the NVFAA is actively looking to showcase local artists. So any budding Picassos or Rembrandts who rent an apartment near Alexandria should have at it.

And those with a jones for art who may or may not be able to draw, paint or sculpt can always volunteer at the Athenaeum. Of course, one can always show their support by purchasing a membership.

The gallery is open on Thursday, Friday and Sunday from noon to 4 p.m., and on Saturdays from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.

Like many interesting things in the D.C. metro area, the Athenaeum is accessible, about a mile from the King Street Metro station on the system’s Blue/Yellow Line. Even better, the King Street Trolley will pick you up from the Metro station and drop you off very near the Athenaeum.

Roll Playing Is the Name of the Game at Bowlmor Bethesda

Filed under: Bethesda, Md. — Scott D @ 12:23 pm on January 27, 2012

It's full of stars: Celebrity-autographed pins on display at a Bowlmor in New York City. (urbanshoregirl via Flickr)

Oh, to be young, pretty and hip … what, you’re not?

Me neither. Join the club.

While most of us aren’t likely to grace the cover of Rolling Stone or sundry society pages anytime soon, we can all act like superstars at Bowlmor Lanes in Bethesda.

What? Bowling? You gotta be kidding, right? Well, kinda sorta not really. The people at Bowlmor Lanes, part of a franchise of upscale bowling alleys, make it their purpose to both repurpose this most blue collar of activities and make you feel like a “Superstar” all at once.

While we can’t promise you a Mary Katherine Gallagher-like foray into the stratosphere of pop-nerd legend, we can almost guarantee that with the right company, a few beers down the hatch and a steady hand, a night of bowling at Bowlmor Lanes in Bethesda will make you a C-list (at least) celebrity for one night.

There are no leagues, so real bowlers may not want to bowl here, but those looking to mingle can treat it like a singles bar, albeit one with 10-pound balls whizzing down lanes.

Speaking of lanes, there are 34 of them, and they glow in the dark for good measure, each of them abutted with a 12-foot screen playing sporting events. According to the site, there is “a full service restaurant, two luxury sports bars, and a modern arcade.” There is also music playing, in case you get bored.

View Larger Map

Bowlmor Lanes
5353 Westbard Ave.
Bethesda, Md. 20816

This franchise has gotten tons of press, and while it’s highly unlikely you’ll run into Lindsay Lohan or Paris Hilton at the Bethesda location, I’m sure there’ll be plenty of other C-listers who look a lot like you.

All this talk of the singles scene belies the fact that Bowlmor Lanes also hosts birthday parties for kids and other fun types of hootenannies. In fact, none other than BethesdaMagazine.com named it the “Best Place to Hold a Birthday Party” in the Kids category in 2011.

Bowlmor Lanes is open on Monday from 4 p.m. to 1 a.m., Tuesday-Thursday from 4 p.m. to 11 p.m., Friday from noon to 2 a.m., Saturday from 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. and on Sunday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. After 9 p.m., it’s 21 and up.

Now we get to pricing, which is why the franchise was established in Bethesda instead of, say, Silver Spring. Getting through the pricing particulars is a bit of a labyrinth, depending on not only what day you decide to bowl, but at what hour.

On Monday (during the day), Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, it will cost you $6.45 to bowl a game. Friday ups the price to $6.75, while Saturday during the day and all day Sunday will set you back $7.95. Saturday nights are reserved for the big spenders, when rolling strikes, gutter balls or 7-10 splits will cost you $8.25 a game.

And those sexy bowling shoes? $5.25 and they’re yours for the night, or as long as you stay on the premises.

The two value nights here are worth a look. On Mondays, you can bowl all night – from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m., to be exact – for $18, while on Sunday nights from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m., you can take advantage of $4 games and $2 shoe rentals.

The food pricing is about what you’d pay at a T.G.I. Friday’s or Chili’s, or from what I remember anyway. Appetizers start at $6.95, burgers are $9.95 and sandwiches can be had for $8.95.

Domestic beers are $5, imports are $6 and rail drinks can be yours for $5 as well. Cocktails are presumably a little more expensive. Happy Hour (4 p.m.-7 p.m.) prices will help a little with that.

Bowlmor Lanes in Bethesda is certainly walkable from the Friendship Heights Metro station on the system’s Red Line, but most of you will probably want to drive.

So, if you rent an apartment in Bethesda or somewhere else in the metro region, come out, roll a strike and be a part of the “in” crowd.

Enduring Warner Theatre Still One of the Most Entertaining Tickets in Town

Filed under: Northwest, D.C. — Scott D @ 11:47 am on January 23, 2012

Marquee event: You'll find some of the top names in both music and comedy at the Warner. (Make Lemons via Flickr)

We’ve featured theaters on this blog before, and today we cue up the Warner Theatre.

The Warner is one venerable theater, having begun life in 1924 as the Earle Theatre when it featured vaudeville and silent films. For a time, the place even had its own version of the Rockettes called the Roxyettes (I’m not fooling. That’s what they called their dancing troupe. Don’t get mad at me.)

Red Skelton and Jerry Lewis even graced its stage. Sometime in the ’40s came the switch to movies-only, along with the name change to its current moniker, Warner Theatre (owner Harry Warner was one of Hollywood’s Warner brothers).

The Warner fell on hard times in the early ’70s, before surfacing again as a live concert venue; in 1978, the Rolling Stones even played a surprise show here. In 1989, the place closed for renovations, reopening in 1992 with a gala featuring Frank Sinatra in his final Washington, D.C., appearance; Shirley MacLaine was also on hand that night to welcome the theater back to its feet.

513 13th St., N.W.
Washington, D.C. 20004

These days, the Warner still features recording artists along with a bevy of dance, theatrical and television presentations. The inside of the Warner is pretty spectacular, judging by these pictures.

The theater can be rented out (suffice it to say, you better have some pretty deep pockets). Though things get off to a bit of a late start in the new year, on January 24 the Warner welcomes “Fela!” This musical runs until the 29th.

February has a fuller schedule, featuring, among others, Peter Frampton, Jim Gaffigan and Lauren Hill.

Being such a stately venue, the tickets run from high to outrageous, but more than a few will be willing to part with $60 or so (maybe not the $100-plus some seats go for) to be entertained royally.

The Warner Theatre is conveniently located in downtown Washington, D.C., within walking distance of quite a few Metro stops, with the Metro Center (Red, Blue/Orange Lines) and Federal Triangle (Blue/Orange Line) stations being the closest.

The Warner is a one-of-a-kind gem and another good reason to rent an apartment in Northwest. Don’t miss out on it.

Greece Is the Word at Dupont Circle’s Mourayo Restaurant

Filed under: Dupont Circle, N.W.,Northwest, D.C. — Scott D @ 1:09 pm on January 18, 2012

Delicious dishes: Mourayo will cater your event or can host parties of up to 30 people without requiring you to book the entire restaurant. (Like_the_Grand_Canyon via Flickr)

For the first post of the week, I thought I’d start where Western civilization itself began, Greece.

Only I’m not blogging about the country itself (unless ApartmentShowcase.com sets up shop in greater Athens) but rather its cuisine, in the form of Mourayo, a Greek restaurant in the Dupont Circle neighborhood of Northwest.

“‘Mourayo’ is Greek for safe harbor where fishermen moor their boats,” the site says, explaining further that “Mourayo offers healthy, fresh, innovatively refined Greek cuisine. Our regional variations on meats, fish, poultry and legumes have been inspired by the traditional Greek and Mediterranean food culture.”

OK, that all sounds splendid, but are they telling the truth?

Well, checking in with diners at Yelp.com, it seems they are: Punters here give Mourayo an average of four stars out of five, which is very good. And from someone with a hankering for feta cheese, olives and tomatoes once in awhile, I’m sure I’d find something to love as well.

View Larger Map

Mourayo
1732-34 Connecticut Ave., N.W.
Washington, D.C. 20009

There are four online menus to temp your taste buds, including dinner, lunch, wines and desserts.

Now, your pasta and main courses for dinner run from $18.95 to $24.95, so this place isn’t cheap. But there is a lot of other of low-priced fare in the city, so quit your whining.

And really, how many other places offer the Pythagoras “Theorema”? We won’t test you on philosophy or mathematics, but we’re sure Yelp.com would want the lowdown on what you think of the so-named dish made up of pork loin medallions, figs, almonds, manouri cheese and honey sauce.

As you’d imagine, there’s a heck of a wine list to help you wash down your meal. There are also eight vegetarian dishes.

Lunch is served from 11:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Tuesday-Friday, and from 11:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Dinner begins at 5:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, and at 5:00 p.m. on weekends.

One last great thing about Mourayo is its location. It’s merely blocks from the Connecticut Avenue and Q St. exit of the Dupont Circle Metro station on the Red Line.

If you rent an apartment in Dupont Circle – or anywhere in the area, really – this new year, let Mourayo “sail you to the Aegean Sea and experience Greek cuisine like never before.”

Shakespeare’s “Verona,” the Original RomCom, Opens This Month

Filed under: Chinatown, N.W.,Northwest, D.C.,Penn Quarter, N.W. — Scott D @ 2:49 pm on January 12, 2012

Bard behavior: Shakespeare was an insightful fellow, and there's a lot we can learn from his works even today – including the stylistic appeal of the codpiece. (KalinaSoftware via Flickr)

Maybe what we’re lacking these days in our iThis, Facebook-that society is some meat, some substance.

Well, you can’t get any more meaty or substantive than the Bard, who authored much of the Western canon of literature and drama. And guess what? If Kim Kardashian gets married, divorced and married again in the next 12 months, I DON’T CARE!

OK, she’s pretty. Shut up.

That out of the way, renters in Northwest really are lucky, you know? There are two places that feature Shakespearean plays in the District: the Folger Shakespeare Library and the organization we’ll be featuring today, the Shakespeare Theatre Company.

The Shakespeare Theatre Company’s mission “is to present classic theatre of scope and size in an imaginative, skillful and accessible American style that honors the playwrights’ language and intentions while viewing their work though a 21st-century lens.”

Of course, man cannot live on Shakespeare alone, so the Shakespeare Theatre Company puts on other productions as well, as their 2011-2012 season attests. And they’ve been at it awhile: It’s the company’s 25th anniversary.

From January 17 to March 4, you should treat yourself to “The Two Gentlemen of Verona.” Directed by PJ Paparelli, this is thought to be one of the Bard’s earliest works.

View Larger Map

Lansburgh Theatre
450 7th St., N.W.
Washington, D.C. 20004

It’s a story of two friends, Valentine and Proteus, who fall for the same gal, Silvia, and all the machinations that take place because of it. Finally, a romantic comedy that doesn’t star Julia Roberts or Jennifer Aniston.

The Shakespeare Theatre Company has two venues located just around the corner from each other in Penn Quarter (to be honest, some may consider the area Chinatown). “The Two Gentlemen of Verona” is being performed at the Lansburgh Theatre location at 450 7th St., N.W. The other venue, the fairly new Sidney Harmon Hall, is close by at 610 F St., opposite Verizon Center.

Each venue has a gift shop, where you can buy a souvenir if that suits you.

Ticket prices for the event vary, and according to the site, are higher on Fridays and Saturdays. During the week, they go from $39 to $79; on Fridays and Saturdays, they’re $55-$95. Check the site for discounted ticket offerings.

Caring sorts, the folks at the Shakespeare Theatre Company have even put together a Last-Minute Questions page in case you get nervous.

The site also has a pretty remarkable view of seating for each venue.

There are plenty of restaurants in the neighborhood, so you can make a full evening of it, whether you call it Penn Quarter or Chinatown. If you live in these vibrant digs, either one of them, walk on over and see the play.

Area renters can take Metrorail and get off at the Gallery Pl-Chinatown stop on the Red and Green/Yellow Lines.

Loud and Proud: Three-Day Motorcycle Show Wheels Into D.C. This Weekend

Filed under: Northwest, D.C. — Scott D @ 1:53 pm on January 10, 2012

Can't Harley wait: "Oh, man. Just wait 'til the guys at the office see me pull into the garage on this baby!" (ElvertBarnes via Flickr)

In the past decade or so, it seems motorcycles have gone from the haven of dirtbag bikers and motocross enthusiasts to mainstream pop phenomenon.

With television shows like “Monster Garage” and “American Chopper,” stars like Jesse James and the Teutul family have become cable TV (and with James, for awhile at least, tabloid) mainstays. These days every Tom, Dick and Harry can be seen riding a Harley (or a stylistic knockoff) and pretending to be bad to the bone, a civilian Hells Angel if you will.

German-style motorcycle helmets have become de rigueur, the tattooed subculture blowup going hand in hand with the bike boom. Yeah, even middle-aged office workers can try and catch some cool from the rolling thunder of a chromed-out chopper. No one is going to check that you recently sat for your CPA exam or that you haven’t been in a dustup since middle school. More power to you.

And of course with the advent of the X Games, dirt-biking has also taken on a showier edge. While it’s doubtful motocross racing has changed much, the X Games are developing a whole new generation of incredible freestyle stuntmen, guys doing things on motorcycles that would’ve seemed unreal a relatively short time ago.

801 Mount Vernon Place, N.W.
Washington, D.C. 20001

Some of these people are lifers, some are hobbyists, but they all have one thing in common: Each one loves riding their bike. In this spirit, we invite the Northwest-area apartment renter to the Progressive International Motorcycle Show, which takes place at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center from January 13 to 15.

I really can’t say much more than the site’s own video. There’ll be bikes galore of all types, the Smage Bros Stunt Show, the Ultimate Builder Custom Bike Show, and you can even design your own ride at the Kawasaki-Design-A-Bike exhibit.

Show hours are Friday the 13th from 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., Saturday the 14th from 9:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. and Sunday the 15th from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Ticket prices vary, but you can grab a single-day pass for as little as $13 if you buy online in advance. It’s only $2 more if you buy the day of.

Check the site for further pricing details. Kids five and under get in free.

The Walter E. Washington Convention Center is located next to the Mt Vernon Sq 7th St-Convention Center Metro stop on the Green/Yellow Line.

So if you’re a motorcycle enthusiast, or just a curious sort looking for a fun outing, you come on out and see the bikes.

Bon Appétit! Winter Restaurant Week in D.C. is a Foodie’s Dream

Filed under: Northeast, D.C.,Northwest, D.C.,Southeast, D.C.,Southwest, D.C. — Scott D @ 12:18 pm on January 5, 2012

Happy hollandaise: You know that New Year's resolution you made about getting into shape in 2012? That can probably wait a week. (Jing a Ling via Flickr)

Winter Restaurant Week Metro DC is a time when many of the finest eating establishments in the Washington, D.C., area offer three-course lunches for $20.12 and three-course dinners for $35.12 (or their equivalent).

Restaurant Week occurs biannually, and this season’s week-long smorgasbord kicks off January 9 and runs until January 15. This event has been taking place, in one form or another, since 2001.

I can’t think of a better way for food-lovers to start off the year.

Produced by Restaurant Association Metropolitan Washington and Destination DC, Winter Restaurant Week features more than 220 culinary mainstays in the region for you and your palate. Some restaurants we’ve profiled on the blog are taking part as well, including Jaleo, Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse and Tabaq Bistro.

Reading through the restaurant list, you’re struck by the magnitude of eateries involved. You have your American, French, Mediterranean, southern, seafood, Spanish, Asian, you name it. Name the type of vittles you want; those are the types of vittles you get.

Foodies, or just those who read the Washingtonian on a regular basis, will recognize many of the participating establishments. In that magazine’s list of the “100 Very Best Restaurants” for 2011, an impressive nine restaurants in the top 25 are taking part in the festivities. Some of these names include number nine Rasika, number 15 Bistro Bis and number 24 Sushi Taro.

And there are plenty of other top-shelf eats to be had, too.

Restaurant Week is a pretty big deal for area food enthusiasts. The Washington Post recently did a write-up on the upcoming event. This is a good week to sample some cuisine that may otherwise be out of your officebot price range.

So, all of you apartment renters out there with a taste for fine dining, walk, hit the Metrorail or drive to your favorite participating restaurant.

And dig in!

Get the News at The Front Page Restaurant & Grille in Dupont Circle

Filed under: Dupont Circle, N.W.,Northwest, D.C. — Scott D @ 2:17 pm on January 3, 2012

Chill out: Expect to find Front Page's patio seating in short supply once the weather warms up. (Google)

Today we feature The Front Page Restaurant & Grille, a restaurant in the Dupont Circle neighborhood of Northwest that offers what they call “modern tavern/American” cuisine.

Their site says it all: “Whether you want to watch the game on one of our eleven televisions, enjoy a relaxing meal with family and friends, or have a cocktail and dance the night away we are the perfect place.”

While it’s unlikely we can top that description, we can fill in some blanks. First off, their walls are covered with “framed front pages celebrating historic events from across the globe,” and some of these go back to the 1800s. So you can read while you eat, which is always fun.

The menu is rife with meat and seafood. Choose from a 16-ounce rib eye, barbecue ribs, fish and chips, salmon, a crab cake platter or your choice of sandwiches and burgers: turkey, chicken, pastrami, barbecue pork, it’s all there.

The Front Page serves pasta dishes too, including those combined with seafood. There are salads, sides, appetizers and desserts, as well as a healthy list of beer, wine and signature cocktails. They also serve their “All You Can Eat Country Brunch Buffet” on Saturday (11:00 a.m.-3:00 p.m.) and Sunday (10:00 a.m.-3:30 p.m.).

The Front Page Restaurant & Grille
1333 New Hampshire Ave., N.W.
Washington, D.C. 20036

The site claims the average customer will spend $15 dining here (their Facebook page tabs it at $10-$30), so while that’s not quite McDonald’s, it’s not unreasonable, either … not if you throw in drinks.

The restaurant offers a weekly happy hour from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., when you can gulp down a Miller Lite, Bud Light or Yuengling draft, a glass of house red or white wine, or a rail beverage for $2.75. They claim it’s “The Best Happy Hour Since 1987.”

On Tuesdays at 8:00 p.m., they have trivia night. Along with cheap drinks, punters can enjoy both half-price burgers at the bar and $5 orange and grapefruit crush cocktails.

It gets even better on Thursdays, when happy hour lasts from 4:00 p.m. to last call, and all you Corona Extra lovers out there will be jazzed to know you can have one for 2 bucks (or a Corona Light or Miller Lite, if it pleases thou).

And hold on to your sombrero because from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. you also get to partake in a free pig roast in the lobby, where you can make yourself some tacos.

DJs are on hand for dancers from Thursday through Saturday as well.

Be sure to fly your red and blue on Sundays, as, for whatever reason, the Front Page claims to be D.C.’s home of the New York Giants. Enjoy $3 Bud Light/Miller Lite drafts and $19 beer towers while watching your favorite team on one of the restaurant’s 11 screens.

The Front Page is open Monday-Thursday from 11:30 a.m. to 2:00 a.m., on Friday and Saturday from 11:30 a.m. to 3:00 a.m., and on Sunday from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m.

The restaurant is located just southwest of Dupont Circle, a nice little stroll from the Dupont Circle Metro station on the system’s Red Line.

So all of you apartment renters near Dupont Circle, come check out The Front Page.

P.S.

There’s a sister restaurant in Arlington as well.
