It's not a hangout for union workers. Local 16 is a bar-lounge on U Street with a sprawling layout that includes two indoor bars and a large outdoor terrace bar. Serving primarily American cuisine, the menu lists such mouth-watering items as grilled squid and fried oyster po’ boy sandwiches. The "local" in Local 16 refers to the establishment's commitment to only serving local products and what they lack in ambiance the spot surely makes up for in culinary daring.
