Florida Avenue Grill Celebrates 65th Anniversary this Saturday
The owner of DC's famed Florida Avenue Grill will host a 65th Anniversary celebration this Saturday, October 3rd, from 10am to 4pm. The event, honoring one of the city's oldest African-American establishments, will serve up southern food and music to the public to show its appreciation. The Grill, a must-visit site for DC's politicians and celebrities, is located just off U Street at Florida and 11th St., NW. The event is open to the public.
The Florida Avenue Grill is no ordinary greasy spoon. It's been paying homage to diner food, Southern style, since 1944. Although lunch and dinner are served, if you want a real treat, come for breakfast. And know right off the bat that this is no place to bring your diet.
