I accidentally showed up here for wings on Bingo night and Michael was on one! He was absolutely hilarious and completely in control of the room. The whole place felt like a live sitcom. My buddy and I just came for wings and a few drinks, but I don’t think I’ve ever laughed that hard at a bar. Great energy, great crowd, great night.
Either the best or second best wings I have ever had, I almost cried over how delicious the lemon pepper ones were. The worst thing about this place is also one of the best things - their beer selection changes so often that they don't always have the same thing you had last time and liked, but it both allows and forces you to try new things when you inevitably go back. Make this a stop on your next DC trip or night out when you need food that just makes you happy.
Tallboy is exactly what you want in a bar. It’s laid-back, welcoming, and has overall good vibes. The highlight of my visit was the service. Jordan, the bartender, was fantastic—super quick with the drinks and just as friendly as could be. He kept the bar moving smoothly while still taking the time to chat and make everyone feel at home. Great drinks, great atmosphere, and even better people. Definitely my go-to spot in Washington from now on!
