Quick Shots #101: Mercadito at Marriott Marquis DC - Build-out Begins

There have been rumors and speculation about the 4th restaurant planned for the new Marriott Marquis DC. In my conversations with hotel management there was concern over 'jumping the gun' with a premature release of information. A short while ago a number of media outlets announced the lease of the space by Chicago restaurant group 'Mercadito Hospitalty' - that is now confirmed and the space build-out has started.
 
The ABRA permit on the doors gives us a good idea of what is coming:
  • An Occupancy load of 270, with 24 "Garden" Seating. 
  • Sunday Through Thursday  7am - 2am
  • Friday & Saturday  7am - 3am
The restaurant, another DC location for chef Alfredo Sandoval, Mercadito, is known for its Mexican and Latin dishes like tacos, and features a large tequila section.The Chicago location menu is here

Certainly looks like a good place to spend a warm Summer evening....and a great addition to your eating choice in DC

Badwolfdc will follow the progress as the build-out continues
