Lounges near Beltsville, MD

“yes yes and yes...one of my fave African spots in Beltsville“

“Fantastic hidden gem just off Dupont Circle. Three distinct levels: a dark, cozy speakeasy downstairs, a stylish Italian restaurant on the main floor, and a warm, inviting wine bar upstairs. Bartenders Mina and Lauren are smart, fun, and exceptional at what they do—great conversation, even better drinks. My girlfriend and I will definitely be making this a regular stop.“

“Great vibes and music here!!!😎“

“Very nice staff and delicious food.“

“Massive selection of beers on tap including cask ales and the friendliest bar staff! Thanks 😊“

“Love this place. Great bar“

“We had a great overall stay and really enjoyed our time at the hotel. The location was excellent—very convenient and within walking distance to many of the museums and main attractions, which made getting around with our family incredibly easy.

The hotel itself is beautiful and has a great atmosphere. That said, our room did feel a bit cramped for a family of four, and we found the lighting to be somewhat limited. The bed was also softer than we prefer, which made it a little less comfortable for us.

We did have an issue where some of our laundry was accidentally taken by housekeeping, likely mistaken for trash. While that was frustrating, the hotel staff was responsive and helpful in addressing the situation, which we appreciated.

On a positive note, the café was fantastic—both the food and drinks were excellent and something we looked forward to during our stay. We also really enjoyed meeting Garnet (“Mr. DC”), who was friendly, engaging, and added a special touch to our experience.

Overall, despite a few minor issues, we had a very good stay and would consider returning, especially for the location and service.“

“I had the absolute best experience at my birthday brunch thanks to our amazing waiter, Pablo! He went above and beyond to make the day feel extra special — from his kind attitude to his incredible attention to detail. He was so attentive, friendly, and genuinely made us feel welcomed and celebrated. I truly appreciate the great service, and I highly recommend anyone dining here to ask for Pablo if you can. He really made the whole experience unforgettable!“

“definitely recommend this establishment. the food is great, the workers are awesome. it's a great place to have any kind of celebration as well. it's a really fun atmosphere!!“

“When you think of a speakeasy… this place looks like what comes to mind. Down a flight of stairs leading to oversized doors you find yourself stepping back in time and greeted by a skilled bartender sporting a handlebar mustache. Great for an after dinner drink or to just hang out with friends.“

“Beautiful Venue, Good brunch, Great Staff Gabi was super helpful. Plan to come back and do some more photography.“

“I came here with some friends for a fun Friday night and thoroughly enjoyed my time! The vibes are great, the music was great, and the food was great too! I tried the beef skewers and the jollof rice. The service could be improved upon. We were left waiting for our waiter for very long periods of time and when my food came, I wasn’t given any silverware or napkins. Overall, I will definitely be back!“

“Great food great drinks great vibe! Loved it“

“Absolutely loved our tea time! Super appreciate them being willing to accommodate my party's dietary restrictions, I was definitely looking for a nice experience that fit my guest's needs and they didn't disappoint. It was also gorgeous inside!“

“The best Ethiopian food and fresh food made immediately when you order thanks ghion that make me love it“

“Recently my wife and I popped into this spot for a birthday event, it's a cool place! It's got an amazing vibe.
Think of your favorite chill spot or dive bar, but with an upscale esthetic better. The food was Delicious!. Definitely more than what i expected. Prices are what you'd expect for a place in the city, but it's totally worth it for the quality and experience. The mix drinks were impressive. The staff were super acoomodating and friendly. The place is also decked out nicely, it has a relaxed yet kinda fancy feel. It's not super spacious, but that's part of its charm. Its a friendly dive bar vibe with class. Seriously, if you're looking to hang out, celebrate, or just grab a a drink and chill this is your spot. I'd definitely recommend swinging by, especially if you're looking to host a little get together. Or just want to catch the game.
Trust me, it's worth checking out!"“

“I recently dined at Space DC Restaurant & Lounge, and I must say their exceptional customer care truly stood out. As someone with a severe allergy, dining out can often be a stressful experience. However, the staff at Space went above and beyond to ensure my meal was not only safe but thoroughly enjoyable.

Upon informing the bartender, Josue Vasquez, about my allergy, he immediately reassured me and took detailed notes to communicate with the chef, Marcel Che, and Sous Chef, James Jones. What really impressed me was their proactive approach: Chef Che personally came out to discuss my dietary restrictions and preferences. On hand, there was not such an enhancement for my dish so they crafted a special dipping sauce on the spot, ensuring it was free from any allergens and tailored to my taste.

The attention to detail and genuine concern for my well-being made the entire dining experience incredibly comfortable and pleasant. The food was delicious, and knowing that it was prepared with such care made it even more enjoyable. I highly recommend Space to anyone seeking not just great food but also a restaurant that truly values and prioritizes its customers' needs.

Overall, Space exceeded my expectations, and I will certainly be returning soon. Their dedication to customer care and safety is unparalleled, making it a standout choice for anyone with dietary concerns.“

“My favorite place in Takoma Park! Great food and drinks made and served with care.“

The lounge's unique cocktail menu and expertly crafted drinks made for a fantastic evening. Cozy atmosphere and great service. Impeccable service, delicious small plates, and a stylish vibe. Perfect spot to relax and unwind. The lounge's live music added a fantastic touch to the evening.Would highly recommend this spot to friends and family. Excellent experience all around. The staff's attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction truly sets this place apart. A must-visit destination for anyone looking for a great night out. Can't wait to return. Security very professional and well trained.“

We went after dinner, and next time I'll try the restaurant's food, which looks amazing. Leo, the manager, is very attentive and, above all, great.
Go dance and have fun!“

“Stopped by Sidecar for an evening snack and drinks. We had the Chicken Flatbread with arugula and BBQ sauce drizzle. The food and drinks were better than average, but a little on the high end for what you get. If TripAdvisor had a "Better-Than-Average" rating, I would have given it that.“

“Excelente lugar para despejar la mente y divertirte ala grande viendo tanta mujeres lindas“

“This just might be my new Monday night spot. Game night and karaoke vibes were real chill. Lots of laughters, lots of fun, looks off inner child joy. Probably might be the best Beef Tibs I ever tasted and so tender. Just might have set a new standard. Waitress was friendly, host was friendly. It was truly a vibe that I needed.“

“The view at the Vue is the absolute highlight with expansive views of the Whitehouse and other DC sites. Reservations are highly recommended but my wife and I took a chance after visiting the Christmas Market and there was a table available for a walk-in but had to be clear in 90 minutes. Service was top notch and the menu was wonderful. It is not an expansive list but everything was outstanding. I had the Branzina (Sea Bass) and a Shrimp Cocktail. Amazing taste and presentation. My wife had a pasta with mushroom dish and it was equally delicious. We will be back again.“
