D.C.’s Passion Food group moves west this fall with the debut of PassionFish.

A PassionFish spokeswoman described the restaurant as “sort of an evolution … of DC Coast,” adding that the PF principals are excited about launching a holistic eatery focused on bringing “a global sense of ingredients” to the table.

The two-story property will feature amenities like a central “chilled seafood station,” open kitchen, hideaway banquet rooms and a cluster of semi-private “chef’s tables” for intrepid diners.

Acadiana toque Christopher Clime is moving over to lead the PF kitchen and is expected to focus on customer favorites like bisques, chowders, po’boys and shellfish, while also unveiling some new sushi-style/crudo creations.—WR
