Market Common Clarendon

The garage is now «completely automated» and no longer accepts validation from the shops in the shopping center. It was $ 6 for the first hour of parking on a Saturday. We were in the Apple store for about 20 minutes and paid $ 6 to get out of the garage. Forget it.

The actual shopping here is nice. I love the Container Store. Their staff are always nice. There are lots of great places to eat nearby like Nicecream and Cheesecake Factory. Whole Foods is there too. Unfortunately, I only go there if I must. The metro is near, but I have to drive. Parking is tight. The center has a garage, but it is over-​priced and poorly managed.

Formerly Harry’s Tap Room — now a steak house, Not a successful transition.
First, you have a huge open door onto the kitchen that pours out fluorescent light toward certain seats (not many — but mine). If most of your menu is $ 30 steaks you should do better.
I got a chopped salad that was the crunchiest I ever encountered — so heavy on carrot and radish pieces that I ate less than half. I got the short bib meat hamburger medium — supposedly some pink in the middle. It was overdone, dry, and tasteless. Returning it would have meant spending much more of the evening there. My wife had salmon — it was fine but if you’re going to be paying these prices there are much more interesting salmon dishes around town.
Maybe the steaks are really good but I’ll leave it to others to find out.
