1317 Connecticut Ave, NW
A reader asks:
“Any word on DGS Deli? Just had Mile End in NYC and it was delish.. gonna need a more local smoked meat fix!”
Back in Feb. 2012 DGS Delicatessen had applied for a liquor license at 1317 Connecticut Ave, NW in Dupont Circle:
“Traditional Jewish delicatessen serving house-cured meats, fish, bread, bagels, and bialys with a seating capacity of 90 and total occupancy load of 127. Applicant requests a summer garden with 12 seats.”
I checked in with one of the owners and he writes:
“We are still on schedule for summer opening.”
Though much construction still needs to be completed. I will update with more specific dates as construction progresses.
I live across the street from this place (and can’t wait for it to open!!) and after months of sitting idle, there was a full crew there this morning working on both the interior and exterior.
Can’t wait for this Deli. Any word on the old Pizza Hut on Columbia Rd. The Rumor was a Ledo’s which Im hoping is false But work has begun on the space so someone is moving in.
