This is a total K-Street lobbyist bar with nice drinks at insane prices. The room is dark and swanky with great artwork of politicians from both sides of the aisle, upscale bar snacks come with your table, and you’ll pay $35 for an ounce of Woodford - but you may spot a member of Congress, too. This is a spot frequented by corporate accounts and special-interest types, but it’s a cool, old-school DC room and perfectly executed.

Only had drinks here so I cannot comment on the food: the ambiance is nice and the service is very good, but there is definitely a mark-up on prices for the location. If you just want really great cocktails, I would recommend looking elsewhere, but this is definitely a good option for an upscale place to go if you care more about “the vibe” than drink quality or pricing.

This is a different type of place. Some allocated bourbon. Heavy pours on a lot of stuff so be prepared if you don't like them strong, you have to watch it. Beautiful location and not for everyone. A special type of place to unwind and you never know who you'll see.
