Food & drink

We’re resetting the table.

Food & Drink is being built into the full Capital Daily experience — guides we re-walk before we publish, not roundups we repost. Our rule for this section is simple: if we haven’t sat at the table recently, we don’t send you to it.

While the kitchen’s closed here, the three doors below are open — and every one of them holds up.

Restaurant news as it happens: who’s opening, who’s closing, and what’s changing on the block — reported, not aggregated.

What happened to the patio guide?

We pulled it. A living guide is only worth keeping if every entry survives a re-walk, and ours was due for one — so it’s off the site until each patio has been sat at again, plate by plate. That’s the standard for everything that returns here.
