Little Viet Garden always seems to be crowded whenever I walk by it. I don’t think it’s ever come up in any of our Pho conversations – any try them out?

A new Indian restaurant, Flavors Of India, has opened in the former Marshall’s Bar & Grille space at 2524 L Street, NW. You can see their menu here. You can also see their pretty large delivery areas here.
Anyone try them out yet? Anyone miss Marshall’s Bar & Grille?

Full disclosure – I was given a press preview and a free pair of pants.
From a press release:
Bonobos, the largest Internet-launched men’s clothing brand in the United States, brings their fresh take on retail to Cady’s Alley with the opening of their Guideshop Georgetown on January 29, 2013. Bonobos Guideshop is an e-commerce showroom designed as Bonobos’ answer to the traditional retail experience. The Bonobos Guideshop Georgetown will be a physical space serving as a highly personal extension of Bonobos’ comprehensive customer service for those who want to see and try on the clothing in person before placing an order on the popular retail website. Currently, the company has e-commerce showrooms in Boston, Chicago, New York City, Palo Alto and San Francisco with plans to introduce the concept in additional domestic cities throughout the year.
Assisting visitors in the Guideshop are Bonobos Guides, experts trained in fit and style that walk customers through the unique range of Bonobos items, from suits and denim to button-down shirts and Bonobos’ best selling washed chinos. Bonobos Guides provide the hybrid service of a fit expert and style advisor in a relaxed, one-on-one environment without the stress of a traditional retail store.
Bonobos Georgetown is located at 3320 Cady’s Alley. Hours of operation are Sunday noon-6pm, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday 10am-7pm and Thursday and Friday 10am-8pm. Guideshop appointments can be scheduled by visiting www.bonobos.com/guideshop. Guideshop appointments are always complimentary.

Back in late September we learned that Pizzeria Uno had closed at 3211 M Street, NW. A very reliable source hears that a Billy Reid will be taking over the space. Any fans of Billy Reid?
Last week I shared some scuttlebutt that a Frye Boots would be taking over the former Papa Razzi Space in Georgetown. That has since been confirmed. Interesting to note that two former restaurant spaces will become retail spots.
