Our new neighbors!

June 16, 2009 · Posted in Places to go in DC

For weeks we’ve been peeking at the signs in the door, listening to the drilling, sanding and hammering wondering when the project next door to us would be complete.

Well, according to Going Out Guru, Tom Sietsema, it’s now official – our next door neighbors plan to open the doors to their 5,000 square foot Latin-Asian establishment in September. They’re calling their fusion destination “Masa 14″.

Chef Kaz Okochi of Kaz Sushi Bistro and Richard Sandoval of Zengo wanted to open a new destination to drink and dine in the neighborhood. The two business partners plan to meet in Washington in the near future to discuss the menu and chef for this project.

Masa 14 will feature reasonably priced small plates ($7-$14) and specialty cocktails. It will include a 40-seat bar (but no counter for sushi) and what Chef Okochi describes as a “sleek” interior with wood, stone and brick finishes.

Restaurant location 1825 14th St, NW | Washington, DC 20009

We’re counting down the days!
