Chef Michael Mina to Open Two New Restaurants at City Ridge
The Mina Group, led by chef Michael Mina, will be returning to D.C.with two new restaurants at City Ridge, the 10-acre mixed-use neighborhood in the District’s Northwest neighborhood.
Known as the creator of more than 40 restaurants, including D.C.’s Bourbon Steak.
The restaurants will be located at both the base and rooftop of 14 Ridge Square NW.
The ground floor will be home to a 7,815 sq. ft. farm-to-table restaurant, featuring local ingredients. The penthouse level features City Ridge’s members-only pool club in a 3,000 sq. ft. space at The Ridge Club on the roof of the building.
Both restaurants are set to open in 2023.
“We’ve spent the last couple of years at Mina Group focused on developing new dining concepts that are fresh and interesting and then finding the right partners for them,” Mina said in a prepared statement. “City Ridge is one of the most exciting new developments to come to the D.C. area in recent years, and we are thrilled to be able to introduce a new Mina Group restaurant to the neighborhood.”
City Ridge is owned by Roadside Development and North America Sekisui House. They have so far recruited Mediterranean eatery Cava’s new headquarters, Industrious coworking, D.C’s first Wegmans grocery store, Tatte Bakery & Cafe, King Street Oyster Bar, Taco Bamba, KinderCare, Bank of America, and a 30,000 sq. ft. Equinox to accompany the new restaurants.
“While designing City Ridge, and specifically 14 Ridge Square and The Ridge Club, it was critical that we found a restaurateur that could bring these spaces to life with creative, dynamic concepts,” Richard Lake, principal of Roadside Development, said. “We look forward to welcoming our residents, tenants and visitors to these concepts and the rest of the City Ridge neighborhood as it continues to take shape.”
