Barrack's Row Restaurant Strip Continues to Expand

View Larger Map

Via Prince of Petworth, it looks like the Eastern Market/Barrack's Row neighborhood will be getting ANOTHER new restaurant.

The old Capitol Video Sales is closing, and a Latin tapas restaurant named Pacifico will be replacing it soon. Per the liquor license, the seating capacity will be 120, with patio seating for an additional 30 patrons. Speaking of liquor licenses....we'll see how they fare with their ANC.

Well, 8th Street is really blowing up lately! While I know not all residents are thrilled to see more restaurants replacing retail, it's probably an inevitability given the neighborhood's rapidly increasing rents. And hey, at least it's not a Walmart!
