Washington DC is only 68 square miles so remote isn’t a word that used to describe anywhere in the city. However, that doesn’t stop some creative architects and owners to create spaces that feel remote. Masseria in Union Market is the perfect example of this. When you want to stay in the city but feel like an escape, visit this almost remote restaurant in Washington DC.

Masseria was inspired by the country houses chef Nicholas Stefanielli remembers from his trips to Italy. It is the first free standing restaurant outside Union Market and as soon as you walk through the wooden walls, you are transported.

When you’ve walked inside you will find the charming courtyard with low couches and darling twinkle lights, gives the restaurant a Mediterranean feeling.

The industrial Union Market neighborhood fades away once you are seated inside this delicious Italian restaurant that has a warm and welcoming vibe, like you would find at Sunday dinners with your Italian grandmother.

The whole restaurant is rustic and modern and was designed for both luxury and grit.
