Seven Reasons opened in City Center

By Prince Of Petworth


931 H Street, NW

From Seven Reasons:

“The most notable culinary offering from the new Seven Reasons will be their wait-list only tasting experience, aptly called “SURPRISE,” which takes inspiration from escape rooms. Chef Limardo promises a tasting experience like nothing guests have ever experienced and his most ambitious yet in one of Seven Reasons’s two new private dining rooms – diners might eat their dishes blindfolded or have to solve a puzzle before unlocking their utensils, for example. Reservations for this experience will be released on unannounced dates about a week in advance, and reservations are limited to the first fourteen guests that secure the spots. (more…)
