Keith McNally brings Minetta Tavern to Washington DCMINETTA TAVERN ORIGINALLY OPENED IN 1937Named after the Minetta Brook — which ran southwest from 23rd Street to the Hudson River — the Tavern was frequented by various layabouts and hangers-on including Ernest Hemingway, Ezra Pound, Eugene O'Neill, E. E. Cummings, Dylan Thomas, and Joe Gould, as well as by various writers, poets, and pugilists.Since its renovation, Minetta Tavern has best been described as "Parisian steakhouse meets classic New York City tavern."We hope — and believe — that's a somewhat accurate description of the place.

Featuring an open-air courtyard with relaxed seating, a covered pergola seating area, and an indoor sala with a view of the seafoam green-tiled open kitchen, Masseria, brings together the rustic but welcoming aesthetic of an Italian country estate, the industrial grit of the Union Market district. Masseria features two dining experiences, a special 8-course Chef's Tasting Menu at our Chef's table, and Chef's counter. And our 6-course La Cucina Menu at our Bar, Sala, and Pergola.

    Cordelia was a fantastic experience! We did a pretty wide sampling of the menu, and everything was made from extremely high quality ingredients and was delicious. Note that we each had a large plate fish entree and while each can come with a sauce of your choosing, the fish we had really didn’t even need a sauce. Our server, Helena, was welcoming, knowledgeable and fun. In short, Cordelia is a must.

    Wow wow wow, everything was delicious and so flavorful. The service was great, the staff were so friendly and knowledgeable about every component in each dish. I could tell they were excited about each dish they served. The drink pairings were excellent. My favorite bite was the scallop and fried oyster ssam and the soondubu. The pork belly was heavenly and of course the short rib was perfect with the radish kimchi. The tuna bibimbap was genius. I’ll definitely be back.
