Buzzworthy: A Beer Garden on H St and Orlando beats DC...again.

Whew, keeping up with all the openings and closings is hard work in this town. One of the most eagerly anticipated openings this year, the Biergarten Haus will hopefully open this weekend. And, if you're on 14th St after a late night out, be sure to check out the newly opened Point Chaud Cafe and Crepes.

Latest updates to the New & Coming Soon page:

Dupont Circle
Lupe Mexican Cuisine (Opening Soon)
1214 18th St NW · Washington DC
--DC really needs a stellar Mexican restaurant, but this location (most recently Sesto Senso) is not a promising one, given the bar crawling on the weekends. (via Prince of Petworth)


H Street
Biergarten Haus (Opening June 11th)
1355 H St NE · Washington DC
--Any new eating and drinking place with a patio is welcome, but a German-styled beer garden with a huge patio is eagerly anticipated! Its opening has been delayed several months, but it should be opening any day now. (via Going Out Gurus)


Logan Circle
Point Chaud Cafe and Crepes (Now Open)
1736 14th St NW · Washington DC
--This neighborhood could definitely use some inexpensive food options, and even better, they will stay open until 3 AM on the weekends. (via 14th & You)


Penn Quarter
Cuba Libre (September 2010)
801A Ninth St NW · Washington DC
--If the DC branch of this Philly-based restaurant is going to be anything like their Orlando location, the space is going to be huge and will channel Havana via Disney's design team (not necessarily a bad thing). The food may be middling, but it's all about the rum drinks and Latin dance nights, right? (via PQ Living)

Carmine's (Opening Soon)
425 7th St NW · Washington DC
--Family-style Italian from a NYC-based restaurant in what will be one of the largest restaurants in town. Eh, I'll reserve judgement until it opens.(via Washington Post)
