Grandmom is having a great time in DC. Scarlet Oak has the best servers, managers, and drink. Highly recommend if you travel to DC!! We will be back!
Excellent brunch! Cheers!
Had a good experience except at around 8:45 the bartender called last call. I said it’s only 8:45 and you have a bar and outside patio full of people. The response was we are closing early so we can set up for an event tomorrow. Found that a little odd. To me it would make more sense to have staff come in early the next day versus running paying customers out not to mention it was Monday night football. Seems like management needs further training.

Scarlet Oak Restaurant & Bar features a friendly staff that provides personalized attention and creates an inviting atmosphere. The decor is stylish, and they make an effort to recognize regulars, even amidst tourist crowds. Recently, customers have enjoyed a variety of dishes, with many praising the quality of the food. The hanger steak salad was noted for being cooked to perfection, while the crab cakes and Brussel sprouts were described as flavorful with great portions. The outdoor patio is spacious and offers a great atmosphere, especially during happy hour when wings and beer are available at good prices. Sharing appetizers like deviled eggs, arancini balls, and pizza is highly recommended, as they are popular among guests. The restaurant often offers half-price bottles of wine on Wednesdays, adding to the enjoyable experience. Service is quick, and staff are attentive, sometimes surprising diners with free desserts or recognizing special occasions. Though the ambiance is lively and fun, some find the noise level quite high, making conversations difficult at times. Overall, Scarlet Oak is a decent spot for a quick bite or casual meal, especially with options like chicken parm Detroit style pizza and sandwiches that have received positive feedback. The culinary experience continues to improve, and the friendly atmosphere makes it a favorite for many visitors.
