“Hope for a Return: D Light Cafe in Adams Morgan!”


2475 18th Street, NW

“Dear PoPville,

It appears that Dlight Cafe only closed temporarily (ed. note: Unclear if this is from the new owners, or new, new owners) and is reopening in the near future. They are fully redecorating and renovating the space.

They’ve got some nice new wall finishes and warm chandelier lighting. I asked the folks working on the finishes, and somebody who was in charge – I think may have been the new owner – confirmed that DLight would be back. I was told they were aiming for late March, but I know that timetable can sometimes change with renovations.

Hooray for the tentative return of D Light!”

D Light first opened here back in November 2021. Went through some tough times over the years.

It was sold by the original Ukrainian sisters to this owner in January 2024.

There was a time

Stay tuned.
