Eventide Restaurant in Clarendon received its final permit this morning to operate its rooftop lounge, and will open the space to customers beginning Friday, weather permitting, General Manager and Partner Dave Pressly told DCist today. The rooftop will feature its own separate menu of cold dishes, including salads, chilled soups and small plates mid- to entree-sized plates like "angry shrimp" ($15), bison carpaccio ($12) and ceviche. Although not yet finished, the beverage menu includes "only a few summertime beers, hot weather-inspired cocktails and wines leaning heavily towards refreshing whites and roses," Pressley said. Eventide's rooftop will have a similar door policy as the rest of the bar: there is a patron limit for the rooftop bar, and once it's at capacity, guests can wait in the lower bar until space becomes available. If this weekend's predicted rain makes the rooftop's debut a bust, look for rooftop service on the first nice day thereafter.

If they charged me $15 for a small plate of shrimp, I'd be angry, too.
That's odd - I was just thinking about a plate of shrimp when you posted that. Life is always intense for Repo Man.
Just wait until you've tried their Godd@mn F**king Sonovab**ching Seared Ahi Tuna Sliders (3 for $23). Fries are $9 extra. They'll have to call the police to get you out of there.
Is it true that this place was originally supposed to be a 90's grunge-themed tapas place called Evenflow, until the owners heard from Pearl Jam's lawyers?
You're thinking of the Nirvana-themed tapas place on Wilson called Nevermind. The place smelled like Teen Spirit. No wonder the owner blew his brains out with a shotgun. PS: parking was ample.
Meh....Virginia.
Shall I call my jumper friends to test the landing. They make quite a splash once their anti-depressants wear off.
Evenflow, any relation to Sweetflow?
Carpaccio, ceviche, small plates...does the world really need another one of these places?
So long as someone wields the whip, someone else will want to kiss it.
How about a topless tapas bar? Take a swanky gentleman's club and add a $12 plate of grilled octopus to the menu. Fusion we can all get behind.
So long as the talent has really small booties, to match the plates. Yeah baby, when it comes to females, Cosmo ain't got nothin to do with my selection. 36-24-36? Only if she's 5'3".
Before we start criticizing yet-another-small-plates place, we should ask ourselves: what is the point of even having deck chairs on the Titanic if we can't re-arrange them into interesting patters every once in a while? Once you get into feng shui-ing that $h!t, you don't even notice how icy the water is.
Also, unless they're making wine with flower petals, I'm pretty sure there's an accent mark on "rosés."
How did I end up on Clarendonist.com? I coulda swore I typed dcist.com.
Someone (the Virginia and Maryland suburbs) has to support the District.
Say what you like, but their corned pork belly hash with the sunny-side-up eggs and hollandaise is food of the gods.
Hm. Corned bacon with eggs and a rich french sauce? That may be tasty, but my scrapple with powdered eggs over easy and demi-bordelaise sauce has been known to send people to the hospital, while my liver mush and burnt vegan bacon is wildly applauded by everyone who owes me money.
Not to further derail this discussion, but isn't Evenflow a brand of breast pump for nursing mothers?
Not that I'd know.
