Get the fries on the bar menu! I promise you won’t regret it! Their happy hour is also pretty great!

Stopped in for dinner & tried a bunch of apps, the hot dog & a burger. Everything was delicious, but the Chicken Satay was next level! Definitely coming back to try again.

Chill local neighborhood spot with a good brunch and dinner. Food is generally quick and tasty. Neighborhood gem that I'm glad has survived over the years.

Went here last night with decent expectations after hearing good things however was left disappointed.The wait staff seemed confused and rushed throughout the meal and almost seemed to have an attitude. We ordered the fried tomatoes, korean chicken wings, brussels sprouts salad, and the burger cooked medium rare.For the fried tomatoes we ordered the cheese on the side and yet they came on top. For the burger we asked for there to be no truffle aioli due to my partner having an allergy. Unfortunately the burger still had truffle on it and my partner paid the price later in the evening.Even for the burger it was overcooked (medium well) when we ordered medium rare and generally didn’t have much taste sadly and I love burgers. The best food item was the fried tomatoes but everything else was average in my opinion.The drinks were decent and atmosphere was also decent but the food issues are not something to overlook.

Met up for happy hour with friends. We made a reservation via Resy but when we arrived it was not in their system. They still helped us find a table though. The atmosphere was pretty nice and the servers were relatively attentive. Happy hours prices were still relatively high, but I suppose that is normal for DC. Note, the dinner menu is pretty pricy, so I will stick to happy hour here.

A reasonably good choice for a friday night when every place if booked out or crowded. Food is good, burger is good indeed. Many choices for drinks exist. Only 4 choices for red wine but the ones listed are OK. Service is prompt and good. Place is too noisy due to crowd, when you are out to the fresh air, you get relieved...

Biscuits and gravy... ok, not my fav. Eggs overdone in my opinion, but still love this place! Service was great and love the vibe!

There was a service charge that only was mentioned on one of the receipts in the split. Would have been nice to be upfront about it. Otherwise everything was fine but not great.Edit: it's definitely not at the top of the happy hour menu. Probably an easy fix!
