"I was saddened when this Southern-leaning American kitchen closed after seven years, leaving James Beard winner Jeff Buben with only one D.C. restaurant (Bistro Bis); the spot was beloved for wood-fired flatbreads, Parker House rolls, she-crab soup, shrimp and grits, and crab cake BLTs, supported busy lunch crowds via its adjoining Woodward Takeout Food (WTF), and now the corner will be replaced by a Cheesecake Factory." - Tierney Plumb
