The Most Exciting D.C. Restaurant Openings to Look Forward to This Fall | Eater DC

"A country Western bar born in Hollywood plants roots in Union Market with retro-glam swagger, taking over a two-story industrial space with two live music stages, a rooftop cactus garden, a vintage Chevy truck repurposed as a DJ booth, and a mechanical bull. Rocker-chic cocktails like the Ring of Fire (mezcal, Ancho Reyes, prickly pear, lime) and the Jolene (tequila, strawberry, watermelon, lime) join frozen and large-format pours, while comfort classics include Nashville hot chicken sliders, cherry wood-smoked pork ribs, a garlic-and-black-pepper brisket sandwich, and cast-iron cornbread." - Tierney Plumb
