“We’re rehabbing an old tourist kiosk and transforming it into a little pizza and wine gem surrounded by museums and monuments. Bar Americano is right in front of the Air & Space Museum and a quick stroll to the National Gallery, Hirschhorn, etc. So you can fuel up with a latte and pastry before going to an exhibit, or hang out with a glass of wine and a slice afterwards.
