Hi, it’s Jackie. Leave a message after the beep.

Beep!

Hey, hermit. Everyone’s getting together tomorrow night at this brand new restaurant, Social.

Tom says it’s two stories with eight-foot windows and comfy seating.

According to Dick, the resto encourages people to take their time and chat with other diners. The clustered seating setup is perfect for mingling, and you’ll never be rushed to turn over your table.

Harry found out that the menu borrows from Creole, Asian, and other influences: short rib sliders, crawfish beignets, and homey desserts, like blueberry potpie and liquid chocolate cake with coconut-oatmeal streusel. Everything is for sharing, so there are three portion sizes: intimate, social, and gala (for one to nine). Yeah, there’s a self-indulgence section for individual entrees.

Though why be antisocial? The gang’s all here.

Social, 1400 Meridian Place NW, at 14th Street (202-797-1100 or www.social14.com).
