Hikari Sushi opened on H Street back in January 2013.
Zach reports:
“I *think* Hikari Sushi on H St NE is closed. Big “For Sale” sign in window and the lights appeared to be off around dinner time yesterday.”
We knew the end was nigh when the building was listed for sale in May of last year. It just sold. STAY TUNED to see what becomes of the space.

Scotts DC opened up in the former Co Co Sala space in November 2018.
Thanks to Mary for sending word on Scotts closure: “Any idea what happened and when? All signage is gone. Doors were locked.”
CityPaper reported they closed July 1st.
We’ll always have “It is NOT a lifestyle choice.”
“Dear PoPville,
In case you hadn’t seen, The Pursuit Wine Bar and Kitchen closed last night after five years of service at 1421 H St NE. They plan to reopen in their new home at 1025 H St NE in September.” (more…)
Yesterday we reported that “The Mellow Mushroom in Adams Morgan has been closed for at least 5 days.” In certain circles panic quickly followed. Others said, this is simply the Mellow Mushroom way. And it appears the later was correct.
Angela writes: “Got a friend who works for their company… he said it’s gonna open back up.”
And now they’ve added signage to their door. Another reader hears they may even reopen this afternoon. Fingers crossed!
