When we first broke the scuttlebutt that a Taco Bell Cantina was coming to Columbia Heights, a number of readers asked for an update on the Iron Age Korean Steak House. I’m happy to report that they are now hiring: (more…)

We’ve expressed our love for Mi Cuba Cafe over and over again. For good reason. It is a gem. Hard for some to fathom but it is quite possible to love them AND a completely different restaurant coming to the neighborhood – Taco Bell Cantina (and of course, the many other nearby places where you can get authentic tacos.) Hard to digest for some. Having said that, lest we take the awesomeness we already have for granted, allow me to remind you about them so we can enjoy them for many years to come. Los Hermanos too of course (some say one of Juan Soto’s favorites.)
Speaking of love, this sounds (and looks) pretty great:

On Friday we shared some breaking scuttlebutt about a Taco Bell Cantina coming to Columbia Heights. Mark that as confirmed!! WTOP follows up with the goods: “The new Cantina will be in Columbia Heights and is set to open this spring.”
STAY TUNED for more details as they become available. And thank you GOD(s).

May 2011 is a month that lives in infamy (for me.) A wrong is about to be righted, in spades. Yes, I speak of the darkest of days – when the Taco Bell at 14th and U Street, NW closed. Well, I heard some scuttlebutt that a few blocks north on 14th in Columbia Heights at DCUSA a Taco Bell is coming. Not just any Taco Bell. A Taco Bell Cantina!! You can see what one looks like in Vegas here. I’d give this scuttlebutt an 88% accuracy rating. Poo-poo – salt throwing – knocking wood vigorously. May the gods be kind to us and STAY TUNED.

Holy moly, quite a change from this. Back in 2011 the Mt. Rona Baptist Church had significant damage from that year’s earthquake. (more…)
