About Kapnos

Kapnos is a Greek and Mediterranean dining venue in the vibrant U Street Corridor of Washington, DC. With a capacity that supports both intimate and larger gatherings, Kapnos is a reliable choice for private events, tastings, or casual dining. While the space operates as a restaurant, it offers a private room for up to 50 seated (approximately 75 standing) and can accommodate private events up to around 250 people when the full dining area and bar are included. The venue is part of Mike Isabella Concepts and is known for its hospitality and accessible planning, making it a practical option for groups of varying sizes.

Address: 2201 14th St NW, Washington, DC 20009. Kapnos sits in the heart of the U Street Corridor, a neighborhood known for dining, nightlife, and convenient access to transit and hotels nearby.

Note: Kapnos DC space was renamed Lolita Cocina & Tequila Bar (COJE) around 2020 as part of a space repurposing. This venue page reflects the Kapnos location history and current capacity options for events and dining within the established Kapnos concept.
