Looks like a hole in the wall when you walk up to the door but once you get upstairs the atmosphere is amazing. Alex the bartender for the patio bar is an amazing person and can make an excellent drink! Ask him about the bartenders choice! Ask for the fingerling potatoes too so the can add it to the outside menu!

No one else does it better! Thank you Death & Co!
We did not try the food, but if you are looking for post-dinner cocktails in an upscale, dark and moody setting, this is your place! Interesting and expertly prepared cocktails with attentive service.

It’s a dark, candle lit ambience. Went on a Sunday night and the bar was quiet, mysterious. I enjoyed the ambience. It was a chill way to mellow out the night. There’s a pretty extensive drink selection as well. The heavier options do live true to their name.

Wife and I met one of the bartenders at a party a while back and finally got around to trying this place on their recommendation.
Good drinks and atmosphere. Extensive cocktail list that you won’t be able to get through in one visit (unless you plan on blacking out). Worth a second visit to try more of the menu.
Don’t expect an extensive food menu. That’s not the point of this place. The food they do make is good and suits the drinks well.
Would recommend. Our server had a solid knowledge of the drinks available and made good recommendations based on our preferences.

The bars are great. The cocktails and food are amazing. The staff are superb. But this ad/page is for investing in the company and that aspect is either incompetent or a scam. There is no phone. They can only be reached by e-mail and they don’t answer. Their website for buying gift cards is outsourced to a 3rd party and they didn’t flag or warn the gift card was for merchandise purchased on line and could not be used in the brick and mortar restaurant/bar. The items for purchase on line are not unique and priced many times higher than if you just google search them and buy direct instead of through Death and Cos third party retailer.
We showed up here to celebrate our elopement and had the best time! The staff really made us feel special, including a hand written note and bubbly! All of that with no notice. Thank you so much to the staff here for making our evening so great. We can’t wait to go back! The cocktails were also delicious of course :)

This place was amazing, especially the service! There was always someone there to help, even on a busy Saturday night. The cocktails and the food were also great. I’ll definitely be back!

Service was absent. I felt like I almost needed a ouija board to ask for a drink. In 2 hours was served 2 drinks. Not to me to mention my friend didn’t get her second drink.

I was impressed with the service, mind you, it was early evening and quiet. But, I was greeted by a friendly bartender which sets the tone. The craft of the cocktails is wonderful, and the new spring offerings simply amazing! Pricey, but it's one should expect that to have cocktails created by artisans.
As a recent transplant from NYC, I was delighted to see that Death & Co. had a DC location. The service was great and the drinks were elevated. They are pricy, but I generally prefer to spend $20 on a drink I can't make at home than $15 for a Gin and Tonic at a standard bar.
