Very fun quirky bar! So many different types of seats and decorations with lots of personality lol I enjoyed the atmosphere. Our server was very kind and efficient! They helped give us recommendations for ordering a la carte and their recommendations were super yummy! We shared and had 2 of us getting the flights and one of us ordering a la carte so we could maximize how many we got to try lol. We did t really eat much before so I was definitely feeling the alc by the end. Starting with the flight Hi blosSome - 5/5 not too sweet, floral but not perfumey and super yummy Spa mini - 1/5 this one was more like presentation. The hinoki cloud was pretty and it did add that Smokey flavor but the drink was like straight vodka almost. Mont bbam - 3/5 unique flavor almost chocolatey. Kinda thick like syrup but gets better as ice melts. Probably would be yummy if more watered down and less strong flavor Cha cha - 4/5 a bit strong on plum but easy to drink and yummy Updated manhatten - 2/5 I'm not into manhatten so even though this was a more sweet and friendly version it's not my type. The sweet felt syrupy too Tearamisu - 4.25/5 love the Thai tea foam flavor that makes the rest of the drink have a nice sweet ness A la carte Nakamura - 4.75/5 lightly cucumbers, super nicely but not overpowering sour. Really delicious and refreshing Singani punch - 4/5 yummy juice Carmen Miranda - 4.5/5 it's a bit strong at first but quickly melts into a not too sweet dessert y a banana aftertaste I loved it Floral cloud - 3.75/5 ok at first but as I drank more I started liking it more. Nicely floral flavor without that sharp perfume type taste 7 pillars to nirvana - 2/5 too syrupy and strong Wagyu tartare - 4/5 only losing a point due to price. Unique sauce and flavor combination that's not heavy but also goes so well with alcohol! Good amount of wagyu on top that melts in your mouth Grilled cheese - 3/5 never thought this would be part of a review but like.. it feels good in your hand... so smooth lol. Nice not too punchy mustard that pairs perfectly with the cheese and you can really taste the blend of cheeses! Mushroom waffle - 5/5 amazingly seasoned, juicy, nice crunch on the waffle and airy. It's basically perfect Philly waffle - 4.5/5 super tender meaty beef, easy to chew with that perfect airy crunch like before and pairs nicely with the cream cheese esque taste inside Foieffle - 2.5/5 peanut butter savory waffle essentially. Still good

An amazing place full of patient; insightful and kind staff. They know the best drinks, parking spots and best pre-barmimi waiting areas (silver lion) shout out to Hector who hooked my fiance and myself up with a last minute spot and an incredible night. Legit 5 stars just for my suave boy Hector Sanchez changing lives a night at a time, and Selah for being the best damn waitress in DC as knowledgeable as she is charming. 10/10 cheers DC.

OMG. Bar. Mini. My new favorite bar in DC, it is so lowkey, so cute, and so sophisticated. I went for my birthday and got the cocktail flight, and returned again for a la carte to celebrate my organization’s Founders day. The service is impeccable, and the staff is knowledgeable. When I got the flight a lot of the drinks were very strong. Out of the 6 I only loved one, liked 3, and didn’t like two. I wish I requested for my drinks to be less spirit forward and sweeter where they could. I may like a flight in the summer better than the winter. Even though I wasn’t in love with all of the drinks in the flight, the service, and ambiance was soooo good. I feel like the a la carte is better because you can choose exactly what you like. When we came for the a la carte I loved all my drinks. Every drink we had may not be available be ause they often make changes but I will list some of my faves.MonarcaChief Lapu LapuCross Eyed MaryFloral CloudLady in the Tutti Frutti HatParking: Street parking only, can be hard to find when events are at capital one arena

What a fun treat! Awesome experience, service, ambiance --- from a mixology of creative cocktails, and pairing of these drinks with snacks- a truly delicious and delightful, sensory and fun-filled experience.

My husband and I came here last year and just went again recently. Last year we did the flight, this year we chose the A la cart option. You can’t go wrong with either or! We enjoyed our time and the mixologist/bartender really cares about their craft in making the cocktails. They are delicious!Food - it’s small plates you don’t come here for the food but if you need some recommendations the grilled cheese, the wagyu tar tar, the Philly cheese steak.Drinks - I think it all depends on what you like they have a great cocktail selection from their menu, but they can also serve your vice.Overall, experience is truly magnificent and ambience is amazing. Can’t wait to go back!

So much fun. Great paring of drinks and food. We’ve been multiple times, and every meal is a different adventure.Dietary restrictions: They spent a good amount of energy making sure our dietary restrictions were considered. They asked and verified, which we really appreciated.
