I went by Artusi this morning—I am going to be following up with a detailed post but I just wanted to let you know straight away that the Capitol Hill bar/enoteca from the owners of Spinasse is not opening tonight, June 3, as was the plan.

This was largely a matter of delayed plumbing, according to Chef Jason Stratton and his business partner. The health inspector will return Monday, June 6 and if all goes well Artusi should be open that evening.

Stay tuned for more information about what you can expect there.

Meantime, if you haven’t had a chance to visit the newly expanded Spinasse, take a photo tour over on Nosh Pit.
