“Figured I’d save other devoted Hana Market fans the walk. Per cardboard sign, store reopens on 10/11 (tomorrow) at 10 a.m.”
And Hana’s Facebook page affirms it, so this is not a drill:
“We are happy to announce that Hana Market will reopen Wednesday October 11th 10:00am. Thank you for your patience.”

“Dear PoPville,
I recently learned that Satellite Room is changing their menu (and seemingly their entire “diner” concept) to feature pizza (apparently it will soon be just pizza, wings, and shakes). Allegedly the switch will happen in the next few weeks.”
Ed. Note: I spoke with one of the owners who confirmed they were dropping the diner concept and switching up to focus mainly on pizza (including by the slice and a gluten free option) and wings (as early as today or tomorrow.) He also said the beer program would be expanded significantly with 20 beers now on tap (from Atlas to 3 Stars, to Flying Dog to Modelo to Right Proper to Evo to Bell’s to Ballast Point to DC Brau, ANXO and PBR of course (and more). Bye bye burgers and tots but boozy milkshakes (and salads) shall remain thank the Gods.
Also of note, there will be DJ’s playing on weekends and a boatload of tv’s have been added.
As the world turns…. Satellite Room opened up back in 2012 behind the 9:30 club.

Construction must be progressing:
The Smith recently opened in Penn Quarter in December. You can see their 9th and F St, NW menus here.
