“Griffin is an outstanding waiter. He served us on .Thanksgiving. He is gracious, kind and top notch. One od the nicest people I have met.“

“I've anticipated the opening of the restaurant. It's authentic mexican ambiance. Friendly staff. Delicious food, best Mexican food I've had since I moved to the DMV. I'll be back. It's Cinco de Mayo and it's my first time here. Catherine was my waitress and she was amazing.“

“14OCT.2021 I stayed in the Mariott a month ago and didn’t have the time to check out this lovely, refined restaurant. My experience was beautiful, professional, kind, easy going, pleasant, welcoming,inviting and amazing! The atmosphere was the same. My waitress was very kind and attentive. The food was super delicious. I had the Ollie's meat trio flatbread (Pepperoni, Calabrese, Toscano, fresh mozzarella, sweet basil)for a snack and then I devoured the Black Bass(local carrot trio, heirloom fingerling potato, French beans, citrus veloute)for dinner. The restaurant is spacious, clean, and very organized. Best experience ever. Best pre birthday dining festivities. So glad I was in the area and stopped by. I love, love, love, love this place. The bathrooms are no hand entry(wave hand in front of sensor, door gradually opens)and very clean. Apparently the transition from lunch to dinner, the lights are dimmed.“

“Great vibes and music here!!!😎“

“I had such a great experience here! Ori and Alia were absolutely wonderful – so welcoming and attentive from start to finish. As a visitor to the city, they made me feel like a local, and I highly recommend stopping in and asking for their recommendations – you won’t be disappointed!“

“Had a ball with my hubby on Valentines Day Will def be back“

“Bottom line up front, Cranes is a MUST for DC’s Winter Restaurant Week! From the hostess's accommodation of our late arrival, friendly greeting, and front door coat check to our waiter’s, Elmer, and wait staff’s attentive service throughout our visit, Cranes was superb! The Faux-jito, Squash Hummus, Ramen, and Iberico Pork Fried Rice were fantastic! When there was a problem with our bill, it was quickly resolved. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommend!!!“

“Delicious food! It does get loud!“

“Great place to enjoy with friends“

“Exceptional Service. Culinary Excellence. Our dining experience at JOON was extraordinary, made even better by the exceptional service from our server, Yacine. His thoughtful recommendations, warm demeanor, and perfectly timed attentiveness made for an unforgettable evening. Even as the restaurant got busier, Yacine maintained his focus on us— a warm and welcoming touch that elevated the entire experience. Thank you! As fans of Persian cuisine and frequent shoppers at Yekta Market in Rockville— having recently tried our hand at making Persian dishes like Fesenjan at home— coupled with all of the culinary accolades— we had high expectations for JOON. It not only met but exceeded them. Mast-o Musir, yogurt dish with Persian dried shallot and rose petal, was exceptional— more elevated and nuanced than any we’ve had. The mushroom Khoresht stew with white truffle was another highlight, offering perfectly balanced flavors something hard to do with white truffles and a satisfying richness, complemented by the perfectly crunchy Tahdig, iconic golden rice crust. The braised lamb shoulder which Yacine suggested was the undeniable highlight of the meal I which each dish was excellent. Tender and flavorful, it was paired beautifully with texture. It’s a signature dish that rivals the best we’ve ever had, bringing to mind the legendary Bo Ssam pork shoulder from David Chang’s Momofuku— bold, unforgettable, and expertly prepared. The Gormeh Sabzi, short rib stew with its delicious sour depth, was excellent but couldn’t quite match the lamb’s showstopping brilliance. Two very minor points. While the food and service are exceptional, the main dining room lighting would benefit from dimming. A water filtration water system could make a big difference as well. JOON has firmly secured its place as a must-visit dining destination for us. We can’t wait to return and explore more of the menu.“

“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!“

“Love this place. Great bar“

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

“The location is unfortunate, but the drinks, food, atmosphere, and service were terrific. The only reason the food has 4 stars instead of 5 is that the filet Mignon was overcooked. The server was a delight and offered to fix it, but I assured her it was still delicious.“

“We very much anticipated this dinner and had high expectations. As usual, Bourbon did not let us down, from the service to the food, everything was perfect. It is our go-to splurge when we come to DC, and it never disappoints. Bravo (again and again). Thank you to the team.“

“First time staying here.
Loved the location, close to walking to about anywhere.
Rooms where clean, a bit small. Smaller than I expected them to be but comfortable otherwise. Staff was great and every friendly.
We are breakfast a few times during our stay.
Was anxious to do so due to having to eat from the GF menu and breakfast items can be not much of an option at most places.
After speaking to the manager at the restaurant, cafe Riggs, I was put at ease as he went through the whole menu and told me what would be and what would not be and explained why.
I have to say it was the best eggs I've had in a long time and I was not expecting that I could actually eat gluten-free toast without worrying about cross contamination.
My husband had the breakfast sandwich and loved everything.
Thank you for a great stay.“

“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.“

“Best spot in town , best music“

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

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

“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.“

“There are two entrances- main entrance is on the main parking lot side of the Eden center (and then you go down stairs). The other entrance is on the back, next to a gym, with less parking (and less light at night) but a door that's easier to find.“

“Had a lovely evening at Quadrant Bar & Lounge! The space is absolutely beautiful—modern, elegant, and perfect for a relaxed night out or a classy pre-dinner drink. The ambiance really sets the mood: dim lighting, stylish decor, and just the right level of buzz.

The cocktails were definitely a highlight—creative, well-balanced, and beautifully presented. I tried the signature lavender gin cocktail, and it was refreshing and unique. The small plates we ordered (especially the truffle fries and crab cakes) were flavorful and well-portioned for sharing.“

“Great food great drinks great vibe! Loved it“

“The Number #1 highlight is Granny and the Boys. Number # 2 is the Bartenders. #3 The Showtime Crowd.“

“FOOD IS VERY GOOD AND I LOVE STEVE AND GEORGINA“

“Great place for cocktails“

“I've been to SOST a few times over the last few months. I love it. The food is delicious and the staff are really top tier. They all have a great demeanor and offer a great environment. There is always something nice to enjoy at SOST, whether it be love music, a cafe vibe, or a community event.

Some friends and I went today for brunch. All though the menu was a bit limited, we all ordered 3 different things and we all enjoyed it. Our server was a great sport by listening to us ask why there weren't any breads or carbs on the menu and Saim was very accommodating when spoke with him as well. He gave us a full tour of the restaurant and it was just a great time right before the Brunch and Go Home event began.“

“The Statler Lounge inside the Capital Hilton is a hidden gem that exudes sophistication and warmth. With its elegant decor and comfortable seating, it’s the perfect spot to unwind after a busy day in D.C. The cocktail menu is impressive, featuring expertly crafted drinks and a selection of fine wines. The attentive staff provides exceptional service, ensuring a welcoming atmosphere. Whether for a casual meeting or a relaxing evening, the Statler Lounge is a delightful retreat that enhances any visit.“

“come by!!!! def should be on your dc rooftop to do list!!!!“

“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.“

“Don’t trip best bar uptown“

“We ate here during a week of house-hunting from out of town. This place is exactly the type of neighborhood restaurant we enjoy: good food, relaxed attitude. We had lamb shish kabob and trout stuffed with spinach and both were perfectly done. We ate on the patio at 8 pm and had no issues with mosquitoes mentioned in another review. The place was full and lively but not too loud and we had no wait. Just felt right in every sense. We ended up buying a house a few blocks away and expect to be regulars here.“

“Terrific staff, excellent hours of operation, wonderful spot!“

“Great atmosphere, excellent service and strong drinks!!! Our server was awesome!!! I definitely recommend!!!“

“Great vibe! Love it! 🥰🥰🥰🥰“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Lexy was absolutely incredible from start to finish! She greeted us with a warm welcome and brought a confident, assertive energy to her service that made us feel immediately taken care of. Her hospitality stood out — not only was she attentive to every detail, but she also made us feel completely at home by engaging in genuine conversation about both personal and business life.

The entire experience at Saver was top-notch. The ambience was inviting and stylish, creating the perfect setting to relax and enjoy ourselves. And the food? Absolutely delicious — every bite exceeded expectations.

If you’re in Carmel and want a great meal paired with exceptional service, ask for Lexy. You won’t be disappointed.“

“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!!“

In summary, Skylit Lounge is a welcoming neighborhood spot with joyful music, excellent hookah, and a warm, friendly vibe. It's a place where you can relax, enjoy great company, and feel right at home.“
