The Biggest New Restaurant Openings in D.C., May 2025 | Eater DC
"Owner Adam Shulman debuts a New American restaurant and bar in the former Boxcar Tavern space with an experimental martini program, happy hour, and late-night service. Chef Andre Williams’s menu includes local oysters, shrimp cocktail, crab cakes, a double smash burger, chicken pot pie stuffed with root vegetables, and a weekend-only prime rib special. Cocktail creator Tori Pratt (founder of Pratt Standard Cocktail Company) remixes a dirty martini with caper brine, tops a gin French 75 with a caviar-and-potato chip bite, and jazzes up an espresso martini with brown sugar. The 2,000-square-foot venue features an 18-seat bar, cozy booths, a communal table, an outdoor patio, and sources ingredients from vendors and farmers at the historic Eastern Market directly across the street." - Tierney Plumb
