Joe Theismann's Restaurant

Riverside Taco Company Opens in Old Town With a Waterfront Taco Trailer | Eater DC

"Undergoing a months-long renovation, Joe Theismann’s Restaurant is a 33-year-old, 7,800-square-foot steakhouse next to the King Street Metro in which Alexandria Restaurant Partners bought an equity stake; I learned it will add a new island bar with 20 draft lines and expand beyond steak-and-burger mainstays with newer items like pan-seared salmon, poke bowls, Southern fried chicken salad, and bottomless brunch bars. Theismann’s will stay open during the overhaul as a pop-up bar called JT serving happy hour and a pared-down menu of core dishes, and renovations are projected to finish by mid-September to align with the NFL’s 100th season and Theismann’s 70th birthday." - Tierney Plumb
