A couple weeks ago a reader wrote in with word of Dangerously Delicious Pies opening a spot in the food court of Union Station. And now Dangerously Delicious Pies tweets:

“IT’S OFFICIAL!!! Dangerously Delicious Pies will be slingin pies at Union Station Thursday at 10am!! See y’all then!”

They’ve got pretty big shoes to fill as I believe this space was once home to Vacaro’s…



301 Massachusetts Ave NE

From ANC Rep TonyTGoodman:

“ANC 6C voted to support expanded outdoor seating + enclosed seating at 301 Mass NE for Pete’s Apizza.”

If all gets worked out this will be Pete’s 4th location joining Columbia Heights, Friendship Heights and Clarendon.

The White Tiger Indian Restaurant had been on Capitol Hill since 1997. Were there any fans?

Loopnet still shows the property for lease:

“Best restaurant corner in DC. Rare Capitol Hill Prime Corner Restaurant. Huge Patio with Over 100 Outdoor Seats! Less than five minuets walking to Union Station trains and metro, Capitol Buildings, Senate Offices, and the Supreme Court!”

More on Pete’s APizza moving there as info becomes available.

Looks like Dangerously Delicious Pies is coming to Union Station. @zcolman spots the scene above in the Union Station food court. He advises, “Time to invest in new belts.”

514 8th Street, SE

Back in Nov. 2010 we learned that Pacifico Cantina was going to replace the Capital Video Sales store on Barracks Row next to Belga at 514 8th Street, SE.

Pacifico Cantina from Xavier Cervera [Senart’s, Lola’s, Boxcar Tavern, Molly Malone’s future Hawk n Dove] is opening on Thursday:
