Fare Well Now Hiring on H Street
In another sign that Fare Well (406 H Street) is getting close to opening, the restaurant is now hiring. The building for the vegan bistro and bakery underwent a complete renovation/rebuild over the last year, and the restaurant had been targeting a spring opening date. It now appears that it is likely to open in early summer.
New Back Wall at Uni Bistro
Uni Bistro (403 H Street) will adjust its hours on June 16th as it looks to create more of a dinner crowd in addition to its strong breakfast and lunch business. Starting on the 16th, Uni will be open from 8 am until 2 pm before shutting down for a few hours and reopening at 5 pm. The restaurant will then stay open until 10 pm for dinner service (it currently closes at 8 pm). They will host happy hour from 5-8 pm. If you haven’t been inside in a couple of weeks, they have renovated the back wall to feature some of their wines and beers that they have available (see picture above).
Exterior at Mythology on H Street
Serious renovations have taken place at the future space of Mythology and Lore Lounge at 816 H Street. The spot, previously occupied by Fever Nightclub and HR 57, has undergone a complete transformation over the past several months, including a major deck build out on the roof. While we are told that the restaurant is several months away from opening, signage went up earlier this week. You can get more details on the restaurant from H Street Great Street and Washington Business Journal. More details on the projected opening as we get them.

Signage for Craft Beer Cellar at 301 H Street
Signage is now up for the coming Craft Beer Cellar at 301 H Street on the first floor of the new 301 H Street Condos.

Sign Posted at Citi Pizza on H Street
Citi Pizza (504 H Street), which has undergone multiple iterations over the past several years (it was originally just Citi Pizza and then became New Citi Pizza), is undergoing renovations and will be closed for several weeks. Citi Pizza is the only place to get pizza on the western side of H Street and also has sold pizza by the slice in the past.
Taqueria and Rosticeria Fresca Prior to Its Opening on H Street
Taqueria and Rosticeria Fresca (701 H Street) is planning on adding a patio according to a permit that was filed in April (see below). The restaurant opened earlier this year and has been packed most days during lunchtime. As summer approaches, the addition of the patio should be quite nice.
