About Us

Nestled in the heart of Washington DC, our bistro is a celebration of rich history, luxurious dining, and impeccable service. 

Our home, a stunning building originally owned by the National Capital Brewing Co in 1911, retains its timeless charm, with exposed brick, arched windows, and a chandelier-lit interior that exudes warmth and sophistication.

At Baby Shank, we’ve taken classic French cuisine and elevated it with a Japanese twist, creating an unforgettable dining experience that’s both unique and refined. 

With renowned Chef Noriaki Yasutake at the helm, our menu showcases carefully curated dishes that reflect the flavors of France while embracing a bold, modern touch. 

Whether you’re here for a cozy dinner, an exquisite brunch, or a rooftop celebration, Baby Shank is here to transport you to a world of flavor and elegance.
