Mythology is H Street’s Hot New Spot

Todd Luongo was doing something right when he envisioned Mythology, one of the newest restaurants on H Street. And lucky me, I had the pleasure of enjoying this magical restaurant last week.

When you walk in, you are immediately in awe of the decor itself, a mythological themed oasis (I mean, clouds hang from the ceiling). Then quickly, you are quickly greeted by the friendliest of staff. While H Street is home to many quality restaurants and swanky bars such as this, they rarely have the caliber of this restaurant – thanks to Mythology, this neighborhood just got some great competition.

Most importantly, however, was the carefully crafted and comforting food from Executive Chef Joseph Harran. At our table, we ordered sushi salad, crab toast, sea scallops, trout, and scrumptious desserts. Each dish blew me away in a different way. My only regret is that I didn’t have room to order from their magnificent frite selection (seriously, look at the selection). But don’t let me make the food decisions for you – I will let you check out the pictures and try the food yourself.

As well, stay tuned as Mythology plans to open its upstairs lounge, Lore, by Halloween weekend. You don’t want to miss the good music and amazing [drunk] bites! Schedule your weekend now and make Mythology part of your fun. It’s the perfect way to start your night on H Street.
