Description
Mediterranean cuisine served in a trendy, split-level restaurant with a glam, neon-lit bar.
Prohibition in the United States was a nationwide constitutional ban on the production, importation transportation, and sale of alcoholic beverages from 1920 to 1933. There were 3,000 speakeasies all over Washington, DC and 22,000 gallons of liquor were smuggled weekly to these establishments
During the Prohibition, the building's fourth floor at 1223 Connecticut Avenue was home to one of DC's most prominent speakeasies, The Mayflower Club. The speakeasy was home to a 30-foot bar that served elegant cocktails to high-society clients and, decorated with a mural of Mahatma Gandhi and other famous figures playing piano.
