HANK & MITZI'S ITALIAN KITCHEN

600 Montgomery St

Hank & Mitzi's Italian Kitchen, located in the former Hank's Pasta Bar, has opened up. Jamie Leeds, the owner of some of DC's most beloved seafood spots, has brought on an outside chef to take charge of the revamped Italian concept: Will Artley; who was previously a contestant on Chopped and most recently cooked at Evening Star Caf and Scotts in Penn Quarter. Although the menu has evolved from the dishes served at Hank Pasta Bar, guests can still enjoy some fan-favorites that remain. Specifically, the new spot is serving up Italian-inspired plates like littleneck clams & linguini and grilled octopus. In addition to indoor seating, Hank & Mitzi's also offers an outdoor patio area. www.hankandmitzis.com ; 571-312-4117
