"Coming in the fall to the cavernous, Capital One Arena–adjacent space that formerly housed Rosa Mexicano, this roughly 10,000-square-foot Penn Quarter location (575 7th Street NW) will benefit from entertainment-driven foot traffic and a massive U-shaped main bar reconfigured to cater to the 9-to-5 happy hour market; it will also receive the identical design accents and the top-selling guacamole (blue cheese, grapes, smoked almonds) and house hits like mole negro–soaked enchiladas and slow-braised baby back ribs — and, as Knead co-founder Jason Berry says, “It’s one of the best corners in the entire city.”" - Tierney Plumb
