Lounges in Washington, DC

“Great vibes and music here!!!😎“

“I had such a great experience here! Ori and Alia were absolutely wonderful – so welcoming and attentive from start to finish. As a visitor to the city, they made me feel like a local, and I highly recommend stopping in and asking for their recommendations – you won’t be disappointed!“

“When you think of a speakeasy… this place looks like what comes to mind. Down a flight of stairs leading to oversized doors you find yourself stepping back in time and greeted by a skilled bartender sporting a handlebar mustache. Great for an after dinner drink or to just hang out with friends.“

“Bottom line up front, Cranes is a MUST for DC’s Winter Restaurant Week! From the hostess's accommodation of our late arrival, friendly greeting, and front door coat check to our waiter’s, Elmer, and wait staff’s attentive service throughout our visit, Cranes was superb! The Faux-jito, Squash Hummus, Ramen, and Iberico Pork Fried Rice were fantastic! When there was a problem with our bill, it was quickly resolved. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommend!!!“

“Massive selection of beers on tap including cask ales and the friendliest bar staff! Thanks 😊“

“First time staying here.
Loved the location, close to walking to about anywhere.
Rooms where clean, a bit small. Smaller than I expected them to be but comfortable otherwise. Staff was great and every friendly.
We are breakfast a few times during our stay.
Was anxious to do so due to having to eat from the GF menu and breakfast items can be not much of an option at most places.
After speaking to the manager at the restaurant, cafe Riggs, I was put at ease as he went through the whole menu and told me what would be and what would not be and explained why.
I have to say it was the best eggs I've had in a long time and I was not expecting that I could actually eat gluten-free toast without worrying about cross contamination.
My husband had the breakfast sandwich and loved everything.
Thank you for a great stay.“

“Great place for cocktails“

“The Number #1 highlight is Granny and the Boys. Number # 2 is the Bartenders. #3 The Showtime Crowd.“

“FOOD IS VERY GOOD AND I LOVE STEVE AND GEORGINA“

“Don’t trip best bar uptown“

“Delicious food! It does get loud!“

“Great place! Good eats and amazing staff!“

“Great place to enjoy with friends“

“As a guy who has been in the industry for 18 plus years, let me tell you; Black Jack was fantastic. Eddie and Grant not only knew their job, but they were kind, talented, and welcoming. I asked for some obscure / annoying cocktails, and there was no hesitation. I am in DC at least once a year from Pennsylvania, and I can say honestly, this experience made me a regular at Black Jack. If you want a genuinely lovely experience, stop in.“

“Best spot in town , best music“

“Had a lovely evening at Quadrant Bar & Lounge! The space is absolutely beautiful—modern, elegant, and perfect for a relaxed night out or a classy pre-dinner drink. The ambiance really sets the mood: dim lighting, stylish decor, and just the right level of buzz.

The cocktails were definitely a highlight—creative, well-balanced, and beautifully presented. I tried the signature lavender gin cocktail, and it was refreshing and unique. The small plates we ordered (especially the truffle fries and crab cakes) were flavorful and well-portioned for sharing.“

“Stopped by Sidecar for an evening snack and drinks. We had the Chicken Flatbread with arugula and BBQ sauce drizzle. The food and drinks were better than average, but a little on the high end for what you get. If TripAdvisor had a "Better-Than-Average" rating, I would have given it that.“

“We ate here during a week of house-hunting from out of town. This place is exactly the type of neighborhood restaurant we enjoy: good food, relaxed attitude. We had lamb shish kabob and trout stuffed with spinach and both were perfectly done. We ate on the patio at 8 pm and had no issues with mosquitoes mentioned in another review. The place was full and lively but not too loud and we had no wait. Just felt right in every sense. We ended up buying a house a few blocks away and expect to be regulars here.“

“DNA Social House has become one of my favorite spots in town, and it’s easy to see why. This place offers the best of both worlds—a vibrant day and night scene that caters to a mixed crowd. Whether you're looking to chill during the day or party into the night, DNA Social House has got you covered.

The hookah here is top-notch, easily the best in town. They have a wide variety of flavors to choose from, and the quality is consistently excellent. Paired with their fantastic food menu, it makes for an unbeatable combination. The customer service is outstanding; the staff are attentive and go out of their way to ensure you have a great experience.

The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, making it a perfect spot to hang out with friends or meet new people. The bar and lounge area are well-designed, providing a comfortable and stylish setting to enjoy your evening. DNA Social House has a unique vibe that sets it apart from other places in the area.

After an exhilarating time at DNA Social House, I like to wind down at home with some quality weed from Pullupdeliveries. Their selection is always impressive, and I’ve found that Super Lemon Haze is my go-to strain for a perfect nightcap. It’s an excellent way to relax and extend the good vibes after a fun night out.“

“Food was excellent! Beer was good, prices were fair, but our waitress was not very friendly at all. she clearly wanted nothing to do with waiting on us. otherwise a very enjoyable atmosphere and the pizza was so good!“

“Great place to meet friends for a drink!“

“Had coffee with a friend at one of their outside tables. Everything was perfect except we a server didn’t come to us to take our orders despite our asking. Eventually I went inside and put an order in and someone (who was so nice) brought things out to us (a coffee, a cold drink and a piece of banana bread - all delicious). They were probably just too busy. Still the best coffee shop and nicest staff in AdMo.“

“I recently attended a private party at Prima DC and had a wonderful experience. The venue was the perfect size for our gathering—intimate yet spacious enough to feel comfortable. The staff was friendly, attentive, and efficient, and the food and drinks were excellent. The DJ set the perfect vibe with music that kept everyone enjoying themselves all night. The only suggestion I’d offer is to consider adding misting fans on the rooftop deck during warmer months, as the heat made it difficult to stay outside for long.“

“I DO NOT fully recommend Air Restaurant. I don’t do this. I usually experience a new place and reserve that experience for myself. But I want to sound an alarm for anyone looking for an EXCLUSIVE experience at Air lounge. I just left. Let me set the stage for you. Atmosphere is great! Venue, great! And our service was very friendly and helpful… let’s get to the main bits…. If you are interested in “VIP BOTTLE SERVICE” please know that there is a 2 hour limit. This was never communicated to us. Not once! We paid the fee. Bought food. For roughly a $500 tab (gratuity was included) but we were told at a certain point that we had to “finish up”. Before we were done with our bottle! No where on the website did (does) it indicate that there was/is a two hour minimum (we provided recipes to the manager on duty). So you can imagine our surprise when the staff approached us with this news. To make things worse… I asked the new folks sitting next to us if they’d bought the VIP bottle service. She said “no, we just reserved the booth. No fee. Excuse me??? Jokes on us in guess. Myself, and the people with me, where celebrating. We paid for the premium “VIP” experience and we’re told we had to “wrap up” before we finished our bottle! WHAT DOES “VIP Bottle service” mean exactly to Air Restaurant??? Do not get VIP service here. It means nothing. We paid our money (plus gratuity). So they got theirs. But did we get ours… Na! Be cautious. Save money. Just reserve a table. Attached is an example of an event happening next week, currently on their web site. As you can see… no mention of any 2 hour limit. Proceed with caution. Also, I did some deep research to find the “2 hour table” reference I was presented with by the manager. Found this on Yelp/Open Table. (See attachment) Does this actually apply to VIP ($300+) “Bottle service” tables!? Or just the regular tables!? Someone please help me understand! What does VIP REALLY mean here? And also…. Who’s going directly to “open door” To make a reservation with them? You’d most likely visit their website… Right? Can someone please help me make this make sense?“
