I love Solly’s, it has been a favorite for meeting up with friends or catching a football game since I moved to the neighborhood almost five years ago.
Of course, back in the day Solly’s used to serve food – decent bar food that went well with beer. A few years ago they stopped, but now with their expansion into neighboring Madjet, Solly’s will be serving food again and hopefully gain some much needed space in the process. John Solomon, the owner, says that the renovation should take a month and could be done as early as the end of February.
However, the question is: what is happening to Madjet? DC Eater (link above) called Madjet and the employee who answered the phone had not heard of Solly’s expansion. So we will see what happens with Madjet.

I asked when we went to dinner there last night. They’re moving to Virginia. I will miss them.

That’s great news. I dig this place, although I never was partial to their food. It’s a place to sit, drink a few beers and hang out with friends.

Great neighborhood place. I hope they’re able to keep that vibe going even after the expansion.
