Some thoughts on CommonWealth

For those people who haven't had a chance to stop by CommonWealth and check out its food and drink menu, the Washingtonian offers a sneak preview. And for another look at the interior and its patio, the Prince of Petworth has some photos. While I am a bit disappointed by the prices, I am excited to try the food. As a big fan of fish and chips, I am always looking for a good platter no matter what the cost. But unlike other restaurants in neighborhood, I don't see CommonWealth being a regular stop for me. Instead it will likely be a nice place to go once a month or when visitors are in town.

Anyone plan on stopping by opening night tomorrow?

I can see stopping by for a drink now and then, but the menu sort of scares me.

I checked out the menu board outside & was delighted to see draft Newcastle, which is oddly hard to find in DC. So without even going yet, they've got a three-star minimum in the IntangibleArts book of Groovy Places.

And it does not bother you that Newcastle is spelled wrong?
