"The Market at Ivy City Smokehouse is undergoing a renovation to build a small raw bar alongside its ice-packed display case featuring products from wholesale partner ProFish. The first-floor space below the tavern will be twice as big when the work is complete, ample room for a tiny bar that’s expected to open by next spring. The tavern upstairs already sells market price oysters, a dozen clams for $18, and an ice house platter (oyster, shrimp, crab cocktail) for $45. The new raw bar will have a liquor license and will also offer a breakfast menu geared toward commuters." - Gabe Hiatt
