As we announced somewhat exuberantly Monday, the Donovan House in DC has finally officially opened its embattled restaurant Zentan by chef Susur Lee. We’ll spare you another rehashing of the details, but needless to say, we’re all a little shocked the place finally seems to be up and running (they’re even on Open Table, like, um, a normal restaurant).

And there’s more! Though the restaurant's website remains black and white and a little creepy, Washingtonian magazine has revealed Zentan’s menu in its entirety, plus a few interior photos.

Check out the Washingtonian story for the full menu. For our part, here are a few highlights:

Standard sushi and sashimi runs $3 to $6 and signature rolls range $7 to $18, while daily market selections start at $18 for a 7-piece sushi and spicy tuna roll and top out at $120 for a deluxe platter (“2 whole fish, 18-piece sushi, 15-piece sashimi, and 2 signature rolls”). The Asian Crudo portion of the menu includes bigeye tuna, oysters, tuna tartare, charred scallops, and yellowtail.

There’s also Susur Lee’s signature 16-ingredient Singapore Slaw, chickpea onion rings, lobster and shrimp dumpling lettuce wrap, spicy stir-fried pearl noodles, Hong Kong-style steamed fish, Hunan-style pork loin ribs, Cantonese marinated skirt steak, Mongolian lamp chops, Szechuan-style half duck, and a couple of vegetarian options.

    What's in a name... possibly everything?

    Denizen.  Den Zen.  Now Zentan.  Don't think any of 'em are "in the zen" of the moment these days, do you?
