We are beyond proud to share that @_maisondc has been named a Best New Restaurant Finalist by the @beardfoundation . 🥂
This recognition belongs to every single person who pours themselves into this place: the chefs who obsess over every detail before a plate ever leaves the kitchen, the front of house who make every guest feel like they’re coming home, and the dishwashers, prep cooks, and managers who hold it all together behind the scenes. Maison isn’t a concept. It’s a feeling, and that feeling is built by people.
Thank you for letting us cook for you. 🖤✨
A brownstone with a past. A table set for the present.
@_maisondc means home; and every detail is designed to make you feel invited.
We can’t wait to welcome you in. 🥂
Thank you to @e_zar for the thoughtful review and time spent with us at @_maisondc .
From the bar to the back room, the kitchen to the cellar, this is the kind of place we set out to build: somewhere you can celebrate, linger, or simply stop in for a glass of wine.
Grateful for the attention, proud of the team, and excited to keep evolving. ✨

Thank you to Taryn White (@taryntraveler ) and Forbes (@forbes ) for taking the time to sit down with our very own Fatima Popal (@fatipopal ) and share her story with such care.
From the earliest days around our family table to the restaurants we operate today, that same spirit of connection continues to guide everything we do. It was truly special to host you across our spaces and offer a glimpse into the people, traditions, and values behind @thepopalgroup .
