Keith McNally brings Minetta Tavern to Washington DCMINETTA TAVERN ORIGINALLY OPENED IN 1937Named after the Minetta Brook — which ran southwest from 23rd Street to the Hudson River — the Tavern was frequented by various layabouts and hangers-on including Ernest Hemingway, Ezra Pound, Eugene O'Neill, E. E. Cummings, Dylan Thomas, and Joe Gould, as well as by various writers, poets, and pugilists.Since its renovation, Minetta Tavern has best been described as "Parisian steakhouse meets classic New York City tavern."We hope — and believe — that's a somewhat accurate description of the place.

I only have two complaints: 1. There were small food items on our plate that wasn’t apart of our meals (a piece of lettuce and a small diced tomato) 2. The water glasses smelled like raw fish. I encourage you all to implement ServSafe certification practices while handling cookware across the board. This could be a severe issue regarding food born illnesses, if not addressed immediately. Overall, the experience at Ted’s was great! Sidney was exceptional!
