This is my new favorite place. It has such a cool vibe and they’re always hosting great and fun events. They have drink... specials going on all the time. I love sharing a bunch of appetizers with my friends tapas style. They have a big outdoor spacewith a dog park attached. Some times there are even games out there (like cornhole. Staff is friendly- even when they’rereally busy! Read more

The burnt ends were EVERYTHING! And our server Chavan was the sweetest soul and made us feel at home! Please go checkout their... whole vibe, they've put a lot of love into that old firehouse and it's super cool! Read more

We have lived in the area for about two years and eat out regularly. Lots of places have great service. There are tons of places... with great food. Some even have sublime drinks. This is the first place where we had all 3 effortlessly. Plus, the ambiance issuperb. If you’re looking for an ideal dining experience, this is your spot. If you want it at a reasonable price, this isyour lucky day. If you’re willing to “pay for quality”, I’d still recommend this restaurant. There are places where youcan pay more, but nowhere where you can get better food AND service. We are particular about our BBQ. When we were consideringthe burnt ends, the chef sent out a sample of their sauce (amazing). We hadn’t eaten here before and our server suggested oneof us should sub the tots for our fries. Excellent suggestion. Our server was the head bartender and yet the other restaurantstaff ensured we were never even remotely neglected when our server was busy. I can’t think of a single thing they could’vedone better. If I could give them a million stars, I would. If you’re still reading this review, STOP READING AND JUST EATHERE. Read more

I cannot say enough amazing things about our experience here and with Lauren. We had a welcome reception the night before our... wedding upstairs in the Dalmation room with about 40 attendees. Everything from beginning to end was handled wonderfully interms of planning. We wanted something simple and just wanted to create an atmosphere that would give us more time to bond withour guests. And they delivered! The room was set up perfectly with open spaces but also seating for those that needed to sit.The food was set up in the corner, allowing photos of the awesome mural in the background. The food was also AMAZING!! We heardso many compliments from folks - especially about the mini boa w/ bacon, nashville hot chicken sliders, and tuna tartar. Mypersonal fave is the onion tip with the inhouse made chips. We elected for an open bar with whatever guests wanted to order. Iwas worried this may be overwhelming to the bartender (not having any preset drinks for group this size) but he handledeverything perfectly. I never waited for a drink and never saw anyone else waiting for a drink. If you are planning an event, Irecommend this place! Such a unique space with a team that really cares about their business, food and giving you the experienceyou want and deserve. Read more

Great neighborhood pub! Very nice craft beer selection and the food is excellent - the chef comes from fine dining and is... basically doing elevated casual pub food. Lots of awesome vegetarian options too and the staff is always friendly andattentive. You don't see quality neighborhood pubs like this in DC too often anymore! Read more

My boyfriend and I stayed nearby so we literally had brunch, dinner and dessert (not all in the same day) but service was polite... and speedy, wait staff checked in regularly to ensure everything was okay/refill drinks. Menu a bit smaller in selection howevergreat quality and presentation. Really enjoyed the outdoor lighting and even inside had a cool relaxing vibe with music andcomfortable seating. Would definitely come again- probably for dinner their burgers were our favorite and their drink specialslooked awesome. Read more

The food we tried was very good. I really enjoyed the wings and Vegan Curry Bowl. My wife also enjoyed the Ahi Tuna Burger..... Service was very friendly as well. The only thing that was not optimal was the wait for the food. There were very few customersand it took awhile for our food to be served. For most of our time my wife and I were the only ones dining inside. I woulddefinitely recommend this place! Read more
