“Amazing service at the Bar!!! Thanks to the Sistah.. with the Locks .. my and my bestie enjoyed for friendliness, cool personality, recommendations on food choices and drinks. You made our Lake Arbor Weekend unforgettable. Hope to see you next visit. Food was delish.. ate the leftovers even cold next day lol. Large portions &seasoned so well. We'll be back.“

“Elegant setting. Beautiful decor. Stellar service. Innovative and delectable cuisine. Bonus points for mocktail options.“

“I enjoyed the green zone, it had me flying high. Flying high when I tried their coffee drink. There was so much in it I don’t even know what to call it, but look at the picture, it looks delicious. I payed a pretty penny for it too, but pennies I got. This place cost a lot of green so bring your wallet, credit card too. Have fun, it’s good (at least their coffee drink is).“

“From the cocktails to the service…our experience was top notch all around! Highly recommend!“

“If you are coming here with a decent sized part of people, I would highly recommend going with something from the Chef's Menu so you can try a little of everything. You'd be happy you did, and you definitely won't leave hungry.
Myself and four others went here for dinner on a Sunday night and it was phenomenal!
Phoebe did a fantastic job answering our questions about the menu and providing recommendations. When we all decided to do The Classics on the Chef's Menu, Phoebe made sure our wants and needs were addressed, and her and the kitchen provided the most incredible selection of tapas. If my memory serves, we received about 5 or 6 different tapas and two paellas. Then, at the end, the churros were included in the cost.
Overall, the value, quality, and service were all superior and when we're in DC again, we will be back.“

“5 stars isn't enough!! From the moment we walked in until the end of our night we were satisfied. The decorations, food, and service was amazing! They even offered me a quiet place to pray :). Give this place a try-trust me (portions may seem small, but it was very filling- we ordered the bowl of fries, which came with a delicious sauce, CROQUETTES, fish burger, beef burger, and gnocchi pomodoro. It felt like we were in nyc enjoy :)“

“We only popped in for a quick drink. I had the snapdragon and it was very good, a little on the sweet side (I think due to the lychee) if you prefer sweeter tasting drinks.

Really cute ambiance as well. Everyone was so nice and accommodating whilst in the middle of prepping for a private event.“

“Went to Kitchen +Kocktails for the first time last night. The decor was very nice, and the music was good and not obnoxious. Our server Ally was terrific! I’m not a drinker, so when I asked her if there were any cocktails that didn’t taste like alcohol, I thought she would look at me like I was crazy, but she didn’t! She seemed to know exactly what I was talking about and immediately had a couple of suggestions. I went with the mixed berry lemon drop and it was perfect for me. The crab cake appetizers and shrimp and grits with lobster tail entree were amazing. We had a great time and we’ll be back!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Best in town for food and drinks.“

“Nice atmosphere. Good drinks“

“Don’t “Duck Aroubd”…you can’t miss this cocktail. If you love whiskey, you will love this cocktail. It is so interesting and fascinating. The flavors and the way it melt on your mouth. The Vietnamese flavors of this restaurant are to die for. If you come here, you must ask for Theo and Hamy because they will make your experience 10 out of five stars. If you want amazing Asian flavors don’t miss this gem of restaurant.“

“We were a party of 6 and used 2 F1 simulators. We all raced the Rookie level to get our bearings. Then the competition was on. Had loads of fun and plan to return with much more people. A great place for large gatherings. The cost for 90-minutes of racing is $31.00. Food variety was good and very flavorful. Recommend.“

“BRING BACK THE CEVICHE DE PULPO PLEASE!!!!“

“Great food great service!“

“I love this place! The food is phenomenal! I can’t get over the tempeh burger!!!“

“It was fabulous! I loved how much thought went into the meal and the whole place showed the care and love behind the creations. The food and service were spectacular!“

“Finding a Filipino restaurant isn’t easy. So learning about Purple Patch thru Jo Koy—has ended this search! Literally, Filipino cuisine heaven! The restaurant is uniquely decorated, the staff were friendly, & the food hit that major comfort button for us! Thank you Zahara for being so sweet & a wonderful waitress. We can’t wait to come back for more!“

“We came here after the nationals game and Dylan was our server and it was his best experience ever. My husband had the liver and onions and I had the cob salad and it was delicious. My sister-in-law had the avocado salad. I would come here at 10 out of 10 a time every single time and don’t forget to ask for Dylan as your waiter. It was amazing. And order the Mojito!“

“Omg best place in dc will come again“

“This is my favorite speakeasy in the area! The menu is changed and handwritten each night. The cocktails are all $18 and worth every penny.

They don't take reservations, so as long as you're willing to wait you can get in any night. We usually put our name on the list then hang at another nearby bar until we get the text.“

“The first time checking this place out. ordered it to go. Customer service was great, staff was knowledgeable of the menu and gave a great recommendation. I got the spaghetti drunken noodles with chicken. Phenomenal, definitely will be going back. I'm actually surprised the flavors were still intact. For it to be a to go order lol“

“Invited by bartender Ana to check out Immigrant Food (Planet Word), I was curious to experience it for the first time.

I’m so glad she did.

From the moment my partner and I walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming, friendly, lively, upbeat, and inclusive.

We ordered the Greek Wings, The Cheeseburger, and Huevos Rancheros.

The Greek Wings were hot, crispy, meaty, and savory.

The Cheeseburger was a classic done well, topped with American cheese on a toasted sesame brioche bun and served with crispy Belgian fries.

The Huevos Rancheros featured eggs, Mexican chorizo, tortillas, refried black beans, salsa, guacamole, pico de gallo, and fresh garnishes. He said it was hearty, colorful, and packed with flavor.

Thank you, Ana, for the recommendation and warm welcome.

Between the inviting atmosphere, friendly service, and delicious food, my first visit was a memorable one.

I’ll definitely be back to explore more of the menu.“

“Our waiter, Caleb, was attentive and knowledgeable. The food was delicious and the dishes were interesting and unique. We were a party of 7, sat outside and really enjoyed ourselves. The pacing of all the dishes coming out was perfect. The only downside was that there was a man with a really large dog seated right next to us and the dog barked and whined (so loudly we could not hear each other) and it smacked into our chairs repeatedly. Once the man left things improved and we had a great experience.“

“Great visit for a first timer! Beautiful restaurant, fantastic food and amazing service!“

“The restaurant was amazing. We had a great dinner with family. The chef, the wait staff and bartenders are beautiful spirits. Unfortunately, we were there on the hottest day of the summer and the dining room was a little uncomfortable... nonetheless the total experience made up for it! Please run to Isla! You won't regret it. (Hidden Jems upstairs for private dining and a cocktail lounge next door)“

“I had one of the best burgers of my life here. And a pretty good drink, too. Service was great, as well. Not really a complaint, but it was nearing sunset and was very dark, so I had to use the candle on the table to read the menu, since I'm of a certain age. I suppose that actually added to the ambience, though. I'm glad we happened upon it as we left our hotel looking for a spot for dinner.“

“This my first time here and it was probably one of the best experience I’ve ever had at a bar in DC . I’ll definitely be back for my birthday next week. Love the atmosphere“

“Had a great experience. I would definitely come back next time we are in DC.“

“Our son lives in the area and we have been here 4-5 since January ( every time we visit) The owners are wonderful and the staff very attentive The fish taco appetizer is wonderful ( can be enough for an entree if not wanted a big meal) I’ve had many of the entrees and never a bad meal . The chocolate dessert is my go to“

“Amazing dinner!! Every course was delicious!“

“Best sandwich ever me and my husband really enjoyed ourselves❤️💪💯👏“

“Best Ramen I've ever eaten“

“The Tacos and clam chowder was really good. The frozen Rose’ was good as well. Great service“

“Just as the reviews show, Reynolds bar is a great experience. Specifically Jay and Roberto are my favorite bartenders. They are friendly; enthusiastic, and incredibly hospitable. The restaurant is lucky to have them. Guys don’t miss this spot!“

“I went with a friend to The Capital Burger on Newbury last week. The space was clean and comfortable, our server was really friendly, and the food came out fast. Great experience—I’d come back without a second thought.“

“The food was delicious, ambiance even better and service the best.
Stopped in here for brunch with a 1PM reservation on a Saturday. Party of three. We opted for bottomless mimosas (pineapple and cranberry). Our waitress(es) were a delight and attentive - Shoutout to DeLo! My two friends opted for the breakfast burrito while I had steak and eggs. The potatoes were seasoned well and the steak was cooked to my preferred doneness. Since it's a bistro they did not have steak sauce - however they offered me other options which included a mushroom gravy type sauce which paired so well with the steak. I would return just for that combination. I didn't see too many reviews for brunch so I wanted to provide some pictures for that. It's a small space with cute esthetic. It reminds me of a nice remote working coffee shop vibe. I cannot wait to return!“

“Rania was an incredible experience. It truly felt like a culinary journey of fine dining with traditional Indian food. Such a wonderful experience and service was impeccable. I envy those who have yet to try Rania for the first time as it was a lovely adventure.“

“OUT OF THIS WORLD! I am Mexican and this food is just as great as it is in my own country, adding a touch of sophistication, fun and spark! Highly recommend it.“

“This place is a hidden gem! I’d highly recommend to anyone who appreciates inventive cocktails, a dope vibe, and a personally curated experience. The highlight of the evening was our incredibly creative and engaging mixologist, Landon.“

“Absolutely in love with this place! 🍽️✨ The food is a beautiful symphony of flavors, and the atmosphere is just so warm and welcoming. The perfect spot for a cozy meal with friends or a special dinner. Every bite was a little piece of happiness. 💛“

“Great vibes and music here!!!😎“

“Great with food allergies/dietary restrictions and super accommodating. Highly suggest!“

“The food is delicious, fresh and flavorful. I love the ceviche vuelve a la vida is amazing. They really do seafood well. They have unlimited brunch on the weekends and the dishes always come fresh so it takes some time to get to the table. Since service is super slow, I would order as soon as possible. You can't beat the $35 price tag for food, $25 for bottomless cocktails (2 hr limit).
There's a covered patio/sidewalk, it's open so it can get hot during the summer.
Staff“

“Love the atmosphere and drinks are great“

“Amazing atmosphere and some of the best cocktails in the area!!!“

“Part of a food court so can't say there's atmosphere, really. Things are made fresh, which is great, but it means you need to wait a bit. I like that they use the traditional bamboo steamers and serve them to you that way. Large portions in one order. We enjoyed everything we ordered. Vegan options.“

“Great food! The only complaint I have is the laptop policy which prevents this from being a place to get work done especially over the weekend. However that’s subjective and I can understand some of the reasoning. The food is outstanding“

“In my 50 yrs of living on this earth, and have traveled abroad and tried many different places…my experience at The Dabney has been by far the best I’ve experienced. Everyone from host to chefs made me feel like a star. The bar staff, servers, the atmosphere, and the chefs!!! Top tier and would highly recommend!!! Not only was the service excellent…talk about hospitality on a 100! But the FOOD!!! I mean I would’ve been a happy camper just on the drinks from the bar (gotta try the FORWARD drink!! Whew!) and the service alone, but the FOOD?! We were treated to a five course, and every single bite, morsel that I tasted sent every bit of my taste buds to heaven!! I consider myself a picky eater but none of that mattered. If you’re a connoisseur of fine dining…you CANNOT miss THE DABNEY! I salute the CHEFS!!“

“The service and food were absolutely wonderful! First time visiting but definitely not the last! The salmon avocado toast was a smash! It was so pretty I almost didn’t want to eat it but I did of course!“

“Unreal 5 star arrive and food . I agree Michelin for sure“
