Reviews for Sax Restaurant & Lounge in 734 11th St NW, WA
Classic place for drinks, dance, music and friends. Booking a table for group is good option with bottle service. They have... performances going on every hour. Burlesque dancers, pole dances, rope gymnast artists. Good place, Expensive entry. Dress coderequired! Read more
Attempted to get information to plan out a birthday. Sent an email on Monday and there was no response all week. Saw their... Instagram was active, messaged there on Friday and got a reply someone would reach out soon. It's Sunday and still no one hasreached out. Removed my inquiry and info and since they don't want new business at this time, looking elsewhere. Read more
I really enjoyed the food and what I could see of the show. Next time I go, I will reserve a VIP spot and go with more friends... so I can see the entire show. Read more
I went for the brunch and it was such a fun experience! The dancers were gorgeous, very friendly, and inclusive. Most of the... clientele was women, but me and my queer friends were there representing and we had a blast. Aside from the performances, thefood was great! They definitely seasoned their food! And the waffles... Oh my God! The best waffles I've ever had in my life!Will definitely come back next time I'm in D.C. ???? Read more
Amazing place, amazing food, spectacular show. Shout out to the wait staff, and performers. Seldom do you go somewhere that... matches how wonderful you feel inside after getting dressed up, smelling good, and feeling good. You will be on "Baller status"when you attend Sax and won't mind "popping bottles" for one moment, as the match you with the atmosphere, professionalism, andgrandeur spirit of the whole experience!

I love the venue. The food is not good. I ordered the steak w fries and the steak was tougher than beef jerky. It was like a... retreaded tire slathered with sauce. My date ordered the salmon which was delicious But it came out later and the staff wasrushing us to finish our food in preparation for the night crowd so we could not enjoy or finish it. I wish we didn't stay forafter hour drinks as the place just gets raunchy. I really wanted to like this place as it appears as a classy club. I wasmistaken. Read more
I have to give Sax 4/5 stars because of my experience. I took my mother here for her birthday about a week ago for the dinner... and show. The atmosphere is REALLY intimate/dramatic. Quick bite: they give you some type of flavor popcorn. Unfortunately, theserver came around and took the bowl while we still has popcorn in it and didn’t even ask us if we were done or if we wantedmore. I just thought that might’ve been a nice courtesy. Appetizer: we ordered the cocktail shrimp (there were four fairlylarge shrimp. They were seasoned and cooked perfectly! My mom had their blackberry mesculin salad which was really good as well.Neither of us really cared for the vinaigrette that comes with it (too vinegar-y), but their ranch (which I believe ishousemade) was really great! Drinks:my mom had what was originally served as a house shooter (They practically give these away)district was pretty refreshing, cool, and crisp. It’s pink, and forgive me I cannot remember the name of it. I had the art ofthe tease, Which is either whiskey or bourbon-based, but really tasty! Comes with some type of sugar crystals on a stickthat’s a little bit longer and thicker than toothpick. Would definitely order again. Dinner: I tried the lamb... not sogreat. But traded for the Oscar NY strip....BOMB. It came with asparagus beets in the crabmeat. I don’t even know how toexplain the flavor in the party in my mouth! But definitely a must try if you plan to visit. It definitely made up for anyconcern I had about the lamb. My mom had the Chimichurri steak frites. They came up very tender and juicy. Not quite asflavorful as the New York strip, but still really good. For sides (yes, they are à le carte) we had the mashed potatoes andsautéed spinach. Both really good! Those are probably some the best mashed potatoes I’ve ever had in my life! Not sure ifthat’s a thing, but for me that night it was. Only issue that I had with that was they don’t seem to have enough sides. Itook pictures of the m Read more
Attended this place for a CBC event. The service was great. They had happy hours snacks flowing for free and the drinks were... strong. The music was live and it was a perfect spot to pregame for a Friday night. Read more
