1310 Kitchen & Bar

1310 Kitchen & Bar is more than a bright, upbeat neighborhood restaurant in the heart of Georgetown: it is a place of purpose. Proprietor Jenn Crovato spent a formative professional year cooking throughout Italy after graduating from the Culinary Institute of America, and channels that experience to maximize the most treasured pleasure – eating satisfying and nurturing foods, only utilizing the purest of ingredients and techniques. Crovato was ahead of the times in her preparations emphasizing the benefits of Mediterranean- style sensibilities with an appreciation for a natural, clean taste of real food in cooking and published Olive Oil, Sea Salt & Pepper, a cookbook that espouses simple, high-quality ingredients and classic cooking methods. Beyond simply delicious, her menu exemplifies her attachment to the community, making use of the best of local artisans and purveyors. Her message transcends the food at the handsome eatery: inspired by the challenges faced by trailblazing women in the music industry as they parallel those in her own field, to keep the struggle visible, she highlights the crisp and classic interior with black-and-white photos of lady rockers; their influence also pervades the cocktail menu and the airwaves. Every week, new positive quotations are handwritten on the windows to uplift a passerby on Wisconsin Avenue. In 2020, demand for 1310 Kitchen readily prepared meals prompted Crovato to develop Jenn’s Homemade, a line of home-style frozen entrées that she continues to produce as a win-win measure for the restaurant and the community it serves.
