Great American Bistro coming to Truxton Circle!


1535-9 New Jersey Avenue, NW

“Dear PoPville,

There was talk of a restaurant called Garden State going in there YEARS ago, and that fell through. Guess we’ll see!”

BISNOW reports:

“Victoria Manages, the owner of Shaw’s Salon Le Fini, filed an application with the Board of Zoning Adjustment Saturday to open a restaurant in the adjacent storefront at 1545 New Jersey Ave. NW. The restaurant would be named Great American Bistro and would have a 1,600 SF footprint with a total occupancy of 127 people, according to the application.”

Great American Bistro’s website says opening summer ’17:

“The Great American Bistro is all about bringing that friendly, neighborhood feel to the busy lives of the people around us. We are a no-fuss eatery that aims to make our customers feel right at home and provide them with a simply delicious meal. Join us for breakfast, lunch, dinner, brunch or a drink and experience the simple pleasures of good food and great company.”

Check out an early menu here and stay tuned.

Finding a gift for moms can be difficult. Google “Mother’s Day gifts,” and you’ll scroll through endless lists of beauty products, candles and fuzzy robes. Sure, those are sweet, but sometimes it’s fun to surprise loved ones with something a little more, well, practical!

Here’s one idea: Give her a gift certificate for a home cleaning from Well-Paid Maids. It’s the perfect “thank you,” “I love you” or “you’ve got this” for any mom. She can schedule the home cleaning at her convenience and breathe easy knowing she has one less thing to do.

Our cleaners will take care of everything, including vacuuming and mopping as well as cleaning and dusting countertops, tables, mirrors, appliances and more. Sinks, toilets, showers and appliance exteriors also get a good scrub.
