Garbage bar. If you buy a drink in the front bar, they won't let you bring the drink into the back bar, even though it's literally the same establishment. It's just a scam to force you to buy more drinks. Not cool.

For a bar with a "Pinball Like Feel", there are few actual references to Pinball... First of all, how can you have a Pinball Themed Bar without PINBALL MACHINES!?!?! I know it's a small space but, come on. Second, none of the Food or Drink Items have names that utilize Pinball Terms. House Ball Margarita anyone? Lastly, the decor is more akin to Player's Club's 70's romper room aesthetic than a Pinball Bar. It was truly awful to see a number of beautiful, historic backglasses be destroyed for an visually uneven bar top. By cutting up the backglass into parts, its hard to gauge its original appearance. To me, it came off as shallow, inauthentic and destructive.
If you're looking for a cool colorful bar to grab a drink, Tilt is definitely is good place to go to. But if you're looking for an authentic Pinball Bar where you can play and hang out, look elsewhere.

Cool space but very rude staff. They tried to clear our table multiple times and we were still ordering drinks. Not worth going to.

I honestly really enjoyed dinner here . It was great customer service , and we were able to put in an order even though the kitchen was about to close . The food was amazing , and if you don’t eat pork like me , they have alternative options . The alcoholic beverages were made with greatness in mind . This place was very affordable.

Great meet up, afterwork, or even first date spot. Good music, great drinks and food, lively environment. If you're head for the 14th and U St. scene, make it your first stop.
We hosted our Wedding Welcome Party at Tilt Side Bar and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Tammy, the event manager, was so easy to work with and helped us build a great menu for our guests. The bartenders handled our group of 50 with ease and the drinks did not stay empty for long! Truly cannot recommend Tilt and the Pearl Dive team more for a private event!

We were late but they treated us with care. Initial service a bit slow but they offered sparkling wine to apologize which was appreciated and enjoyed. The rockfish was excellent, wife and baby had steak and eggs which they were very satisfied with. Overall a good experience, as per usual … we’ve been coming here since 2014 or 2015.
