Last week we posted that ‘Donsak Thai Opening a Second Location Soon!!’
Henry noted: Am I reading that right? On the same block (same building, even) as Mai Thai of Georgetown?”
Donsak’s owner confirms to me that they are indeed taking the Mai Thai space:

STAY TUNED for an opening date.
ICYMI: “Donsak Thai opened their very popular Woodley Park location back in 2022.
“Donsak is a restaurant that pays homage to the beloved Thai district where co-owner and manager, Boom, was born and raised. When she left for the US, Boom didn’t know she wouldn’t get to see her home again for many years – and she still hasn’t. Donsak is a way around that. By showcasing the simple and inviting Thai flavors Boom grew up with, Donsak offers a piece of home in Woodley Park, Washington, DC.
Check out their menu here.
“We combine traditional preparations with fresh ingredients for dishes that are authentic to both their Thai origins and Washington DC setting.”
About Mai Thai for posterity:

Mai Thai has something for everyone to enjoy seven day a week, serving lunch, dinner, full bar, and Happy hour.

The warm atmosphere, attentive service, rich culture, variety of Wines and cocktails, and authentic Thai cuisine is what you can find in the contemporary establishment.”
Looks like the Alexandria location (6 King St.) will remain. Back in the day they had a popular location at 1200 19th Street, NW which closed back in 2020.
