Mount Rainier’s Era Wine Bar Makes List of DC’s ‘Hottest New Restaurants’

The raves keep coming in for Era Wine Bar.

Located at 3300 Rhode Island Ave., a few doors down from Pennyroyal Station, the Mount Rainier eatery landed third on a list of the 13 hottest new restaurants around the greater D.C. area compiled by Eater D.C.

First-time restaurateurs Michelle and Ka-ton Grant brought Mount Rainier a refreshing destination to sample grapes from underdog regions, with 45 wines by the glass in 3-, 6-, and 9-ounce pours. A strong small plates list taps into the couple’s heritage and extensive world travels.

Washington Post food critic Tom Sietsema also recently raved about Era Wine Bar, highlighting beef-filled samosas brought in from Swahili Village in Beltsville, a Moroccan chicken tagine and cheese and charcuterie plates.

Starting on Saturday, the wine bar will hold a “Week of Love” celebration to mark Valentine’s Day with French entrees, a signature “Rose Noire” cocktail and other specials.
