Espita Mexican Restaurant Will Run a Lunch Counter at its Bar in Shaw - Eater DC
"Espita Mezcaleria is getting back into the lunch game with a new casual counter, bringing Shaw a daytime destination for high-end tacos and margaritas. Starting weekdays on Monday, January 7, the Oaxacan-influenced restaurant will take on the name Espita Lonchería, which translates to 'snack bar' in Spanish. Espita’s midday meal, served 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., will feature highlights from chef Robert Aikens’ dinner menu with lower prices ($3-$12). Some new items that will debut at lunch include chorizo tacos and a small plate of fried yuca with pasilla pepper crema. Other options include small plates such as guacamole, escabeche (pickled vegetables), an avocado tostada, endive salad, and wagyu beef crudo." - Tierney Plumb
