The restaurant will serve modern American food in a chef’s tasting format. The dining experience will consist of fifteen to twenty courses over the course of three hours. Another of the chefs is also coming from Eleven Madison Park, while the third is coming from a restaurant in New Orleans.
The owners recently filed documents with the Board of Zoning and Adjustment as the property at 1544 9th Street NW is a single-family home that they plan to convert into a restaurant.
