1013-1023 K Street

Turton Commercial Real Estate is excited to offer the rare opportunity to lease an iconic turn-key second generation restaurant in the highly desirable K Street Nightlife and Business District, uniquely located in the basement of the historic 1949 Crest Theatre. Currently operating in its second iteration as Empress Tavern, this purpose built restaurant saw the Crest’s overflow theater completely transformed from high ceilings and a sloping floor into the arched brick masterpiece known today.

The 7,600 SF space has an occupancy load of 221 people and features all critical second generation restaurant and bar infrastructure. The fully equipped, 360 degree bar features 3 service wells and all necessary refrigeration, storage, and display shelving. In addition, the space includes all furniture including service counters and tables, chairs, pub style caves, and bench seating. The private dining also offers the ability to host parties for 15-20 people while the restaurant operates under normal service.
