Honorable Mention: The Salt Line Oyster + Ale, Ballston, Va.
Owner/Operator: Long Shot Hospitality, Washington, D.C.
Architecture, Interior Design and Purchasing: GrizForm Design Architects, Washington, D.C.
The second iteration of The Salt Line Oyster + Ale was not intended to be a clone of the first. Elements from the first — the color palette and interior architecture — were carried over but a refreshed lighting package and striking oyster bar make this a standout all on its own. It earned an Honorable Mention from the judges because “it’s gorgeous and the millwork is awesome; the design is true to what they were trying to do.”
