Logan Circle’s Viceroy Hotel Wants to Offload Its Marquee Restaurant | Eater DC

"A glamorous American indoor-outdoor restaurant that opened in 2022 as part of the 178-room hotel off the buzzy 14th Street NW corridor; the 3,750-square-foot dining space was christened with a big Hollywood party during White House Correspondents’ Dinner weekend. Veteran chef James Gee, who formerly led the kitchen at I'm Eddie Cano (Chevy Chase) and Cittanuova (East Hampton), sent out catch-all menus bursting with colorful produce, seafoods, and plump Roseda Farm burgers and steaks (1430 Rhode Island Avenue NW). Gee tells Eater he parted ways with the LA-based hospitality company last month. The hotel sent a statement to Eater: “We want to assure our valued customers, staff and partners that [the restaurant] has no immediate plans to cease operations at this time. We are open as usual and continue to welcome guests and locals with the same exceptional service they are used to. That being said, we are always open to exploring new opportunities and partnerships to better serve our community.” The incoming operator would also handle all catering capabilities for the boutique property." - Tierney Plumb
