Best wings in the area. Tried a few places and this was by far the best. The Old Bay wings were my favorite. I'm a huge wing snob too. Give it a try and see for yourself.

It's a bar in Bethesda. One of the last great bars of Bethesda actually. Not much to it, it has fast service, good drinks, great staff.

Do not accept european id cards to get into this place. This is just not a good sign in 2024!

Got dress coded as a guy in tank top. If this happens to you, smoke island sells blank t shirts $5.99!

TL;DR - the staff lost my credit card. If you do visit, bring cash.

Caesar beef salad was decent. The rooftop bar arrangement was far too hot and the music set too loud for comfortable conversation, though I imagine both of these might improve over time. (?)

On my sole visit, the staff lost my credit card. After a few gaslighting hypotheticals ("But we gave it back to you!" "Maybe one of your friends took it?") I had no choice but to call up the card issuer and cancel it on the spot.

Recommendation: Don't bother. But if you do, bring cash.

Tommy Joe's is a neighborhood tradition and has been for over 20 years. TJ's has whatever you are looking for with space for private events up to 350 people, indoor and outdoor dining and the best rooftop bar around. With over 40 TV's, come watch your favorite teams play, sing Karaoke or dance the night away with there weekend DJ's.

There menu is designed for everyone, and we are happy to make changes to cater to our customers needs. If you need catering, we have you covered.

I love that you get cold when it's 71 degrees out. I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich. I love that you get a little crinkle above your nose when you're looking at me like I'm nuts. I love that after I spend the day with you, I can still smell your perfume on my clothes.

It was cool if your looking to get lit BUT they automatically charge you 20% on anything you buy even if its ONE drink..I ordered one long island and paid $20 drink before I tipped not realizing I already tipped. Music was mixed and mediocre at best crowd was ok.. again it's ok if it's just something to do and you have money to throw away. I may go again but only if I'm ready to spend a lot to get a buzz ??

Updated in response to the response:

First of all it was my FIRST time coming there. What information would you like. I bought one long island and one Jamison and was charged $32 for two drinks I also tipped not realizing it was added already. The second time I went to the bar for one long island and I was charged 15+the 20% which I didn't realize and still tipped again paid a total of $20 for the second drink.

Secondly, I didn't know this was unusual as it was my FIRST time coming there and I didn't come here to leave a bad review I just left an honest review of my personal experience in this establishment. It wasn't personal it was what I experienced and neither time was it an open tab, I paid at the time of purchase both times. Thanks for your response just the same.
