Joe Englert

Joe Englert is a Washington DC area restaurateur.[1] He became known in the early 1990s for creating quirky themed bars, restaurants, and entertainment venues on U Street.[2][3]

Background

In 2006, he began a venture to revitalize the Atlas District along H Street NE and turn it into a nightlife destination.[4] Englert purchased eight properties on H Street to coincide with the city's plan to renovate and reopen the long defunct Atlas Theater. Englert's eight properties opened over the next three years as: The Argonaut, The Palace of Wonders, The Rock and Roll Hotel, The Red and the Black, The Pug, Granville Moore's, Sticky Rice, and The H Street Country Club.

Some of his other establishments include: the Big Hunt, Lucky Bar, DC9, Trusty's Full-Serve Bar, the Capitol Lounge, Pour House, the Insect Club,[5] Politiki, McClellan's Retreat, and State of the Union.[6]

gollark: Weird. I don't remember being notified about level 38.
gollark: My school apparently wants me to come up with rough A-level choices soonish, and I assume some people here might have relevant information on this. So, does anyone know anything possibly relevant about/have experience with the (UK, to clarify, though I don't think anywhere else calls them A-levels) Maths, Physics, and Computer Science A-levels?
gollark: Over here in the UK I pay £9/month for 8GB data and unlimited calls, and could pay £20/month for 1TB data instead. Maybe because the country is smaller so networks don't need as many towers, or maybe because of greater competition.
gollark: I mean, it might not be Russian, IIRC a few languages use that sort of charset.
gollark: Or try and find some sort of Russian OCR thing?
