Mission Mexican restaurant has opened in the former One Lounge space by the Dupont north metro. Oddly, their Facebook page says:
“We suggest taking Ubers or taxi cabs to Mission. Otherwise, Mission is directly across the street from the Dupont Circle Metro Station at 1525 Q Street (Connecticut Avenue & Q).”
Well that’s odd.
But anyway, their website says:
“Welcome to Mission, a restaurant and bar located in Dupont Circle featuring traditional Mexican cuisine from Executive Chef Rodrigo Albarran. Mission’s 6500+ square feet includes two large bar areas, three dining rooms, a spacious outdoor patio and a large private event space with its own bar.
Open at 5 pm daily, Mission will launch lunch and brunch service later in the spring. Mission’s cocktail menu, featuring freshly made cocktails, is available until last call nightly.”
You can check out their menus here.

Earlier this morning @GraceLambA tweeted us:
“Morning commuters: major fire at DuPont circle #metro station, steer clear”
WMATA had tweeted:
“Red Line: Expect residual delays in both directions due to an earlier track problem outside Dupont Circle.”

Thanks to a reader for sending word about the new coming soon signage for Willie T’s Lobster Shack located in the former Marvelous Market space next to Kramerbooks just north of Dupont Circle. I look forward to comparing them to the pricey but delicious Luke’s Lobster Shack.

History of Frühlingsfest:
Frühlingsfest is translated as ‘Spring Festival’ and is known as ‘Oktoberfest’s little sister’ in Germany. It celebrates the end of a cold winter and beginning of spring, and it typically occurs mid-April to the beginning of May. Stuttgart and Munich have some of the largest Frühlingsfests in Germany, and now the Heurich House is bringing the age-old traditional to Washington, DC!”
