Good news for fans of Ethiopian food, and hopefully a tenant for a long-vacant space: there’s an Ethiopian restaurant coming to 3630 Georgia Avenue NW, the storefront between DC Reynolds and what used to be Walter’s Sports Bar. The space had been Gena’s Beauty Salon but it’s been vacant for some time.
I saw a permit in the window and contacted the building owner, who said it would be an Ethiopian restaurant and put me in touch with the proprietor of that restaurant. However, they didn’t respond to emails, so I don’t have too many more details. The permit was issued in early June, so it may be some time before the restaurant opens. I’ll keep looking for more details.
There are a few new things coming to this block: earlier we heard about the History of Cannabis Museum coming to 3626 Georgia (that’s the other side of DC Reynolds.)
