The liquor license placard says:
“Applicant requests to add a Sidewalk Cafe with 19 seats.”
Presumably this’ll be added to the Florida Ave side?

Nooshi’s liquor license placard amendment says:
“Applicant requests expansion of Sidewalk Café to seat 50 patrons.”
I wish Greek Deli’s outdoor cafe would expand too but I’ll take it!

In other good outdoor dining news – Bistro Italiano is adding a summer garden “with 20 seats.” Nice.

Speaking of outdoor seating – what do you think of the new ones at Desperados? Definitely better than the wooden corral…

Thanks to a reader for sending word that Romeo & Juliet has finally opened in the former White Tiger space. Their website says:
“Great food, great people Welcome to our new restaurant.
“Rome wasn’t built in a day.” – It has taken over 2 years to develop our restaurant to get the right feeling when you walk through our doors and taste from our kitchen.”

From a press release:
“Ocopa Peruvian Restaurant, located at 1324 H St. NE, has increased its capacity by adding a beautiful all season patio. Nearing their 1 year anniversary on the trendy H St. NE, Ocopa has added over 30 additional seats, as well as a 10 seat bar with Tiki themed cocktails and Pisco, frozen upon request. Chef Carlos Delgado is excited about the additional space and looks forward to offering a late night menu in the near future.
“We are starting with the Cebiche Bar as an added feature to the patio and hopefully, we’ll be able to add on some grill options for those looking to stay later in the evening”, says Delgado. (more…)

The application for Aroi Thai says:
