This is pretty awesome news: the owners behind Colony Club, the coffee shop and bar at 3118 Georgia, will be opening a pizza restaurant next door. The City Paper has more details, it will be named after their general contractor, Sonny.
The building is a former doctor’s office called MARC, I think used for methadone or other drug treatment. It’s about twice as wide as Colony Club, and the City Paper says there’s room for almost 200 seats. There will also be a big backyard area.
They’ll have house-baked breads, sandwiches, salads and what co-owner Max Zuckerman described as “old-school New York-style sides like garlic knots and pepperoni rolls” to the CP. They’ll also have beer, wine and cocktails that go well with pizza.
There’s also an open space the next building up, I hope that gets turned into something soon too.
UPDATE: MARC was a former’s doctor’s office. My mistake.
