Well, it's closing it's doors for good, so no need in complimenting ☹️

Cool place but closing December 31 for the foreseeable future.

Fine, issues with credit card and overpriced. Also some issues with little critters. :/

I don't have cable, so I went there to see the last two games of the NLCS. They have two enormous screens at the ends, five good-sized screens over the bar, and three more on the other side. Nice menu, including vegetarian options (I'm not a drinker, so I can't comment on the beverage menu, except to say that the root beer float was delicious). On Tuesday the Democratic debate was also on, so the big screen at one end, plus the middle screen over the bar, were tuned to the debate and included text of what was being said. Service was friendly and attentive. Just one criticism: on Monday the fries were lukewarm, and on Tuesday the decaf was lukewarm. Both times I sent them back for warming or a fresh hot cup.

Had my 40th celebration here at it was so much fun, great vibe, food and drink was also fantastic. They made my birthday so memorable and they went above and beyond to make my night awesome for me and my friends. Highly recommended!.

UPDATE: No more NFL package on Sundays! Half the reason I go there (other half the wings) disappeared into the ether...

Interesting atmosphere that was relaxed. Went to Geeks Who Drink on Wednesday night I came late but watched other people have a lot of fun with the trivia. Service is so friendly and happy hour prices are good (all day on Thursday). Will be coming back. I would give like 4.5stars cuz the place died after the trivia was over and they close relatively early

Always great for a happy hour. Student Veterans at American University has hosted multiple group happy hours here. The fried pickles and sweet potato fries are a favorite.

It was my first time visiting this bar, and I was with a group that had reserved the upstairs bar. The staff were very friendly, accommodating, and extremely professional, all of which enhanced my visit. The menu is quite extensive and varied, and the lime chicken dish I ordered was very tasty and very fresh. I hope to visit this bar again. You should visit too.

Food is really great here. Try the chicken buffalo dio and pesto pasta

After debating whether to order delivery I decided to just make the walk over. Cool neighborhood joint, plenty of seating and a mostly responsive staff. I ordered the old bay wings (hated them) and the buffalo wings which came out promptly and cooked well enough without asking for customizations. The blue cheese was phenomenal, possibly the best part of the meal with the runner up being the margarita that was on special that night. Once my food came out the server was mostly ghost helping other tables so I forced myself to finish the old Bay wings but overall was content and could see myself returning in the future.

I want to like this place but it just consistently disappoints. Today I couldn't finish my steak because it was not just over cooked, but it tasted strongly of char... as if it had been dropped into the coals before being served. Just awful. The menu is uninspired and expensive. The beer choices are disappointing and at times bizarre (Stella Cider?). And the service is inconsistent. I've given this place a few chances now, but I don't plan on returning.

Love this place! It's not just a bar- but excellent service and food. Loved the arugula steak salad. Now my neighbor favorite.
