We Are Rooted
We bring heart and hospitality to spaces that deserve a second story.
Based in Georgetown, we specialize in breathing new life into historic buildings—turning old post offices into fine dining steakhouses, century-old homes into charming eateries, and overlooked corners into community favorites.
Our approach goes beyond opening restaurants. Through thoughtful design and collaborative consultation, we create complete experiences that honor each building’s story while serving today’s community. We believe the best hospitality happens in spaces that feel lived-in, loved, and full of possibility.
We are Rooted. Cultivators of place, grounded in Georgetown, growing with our community.
Let’s Work Together
Rooted in purpose and passion, we love collaborating with those who share our values of real food, community, and intentional hospitality.
Whether you’re planning a private event, looking to bring something special to your space, or just want to explore a meaningful partnership—we’d love to hear from you.
Our Brands
We don’t just renovate; we restore with reverence. Each project begins with understanding the building’s history, preserving its architectural integrity while thoughtfully adapting spaces for modern dining experiences.
Brass Peacock
Hidden behind the façade of Georgetown’s first post office lies The Brass Peacock—a 1930s speakeasy that honors both the building’s civic heritage and the era’s rebellious spirit. Craft cocktails flow as freely as stories in this dimly lit haven where organic ingredients meet vintage cocktail artistry.
City Post Chophouse
Housed in Georgetown’s original post office, City Post Chophouse offers a dining experience rooted in history and elevated by intention. Our menu showcases premium cuts of organic beef alongside refined American fare—honoring the building’s civic past while celebrating honest, quality ingredients.
Sweet Lemon Kitchen
In a Georgetown home where families once gathered around the dinner table, Sweet Lemon Kitchen continues the tradition of bringing people together over exceptional food. Our scratch-made menu celebrates the comfort of home with the sophistication of restaurant-quality organic ingredients.
Little Lemon Cafe
Tucked within Georgetown’s library, The Little Lemon offers a unique pairing of literary atmosphere and artisanal café fare. Browse, read, and nourish yourself with thoughtfully prepared light meals and specialty beverages in a setting that feeds both mind and body.
