What an attractive, intimate gem in Washington. I love an old-bank-turned-restaurant! My husband and I were there for an overnight, and when I found out they were having a prime rib special, I reserved a table (this restaurant doesn't have a ton of seating so highly recommend reservations). The food was delicious, but was not served hot, or even warm. I received some personal attention regarding the matter and of course, the offer to send it back to the kitchen, but I didn't bother...because it was so dang tasty, I ate every last morsel. Our server was wonderful as was management. Highly recommend. The entire menu looked fab. I'll definitely return when I'm back in the area.

We went out for a quiet dinner and The Bank did not disappoint. We had excellent food and service. It was quiet and intimate, perfect date night.

The good... Unique and intimate setting in an old bank. The bad... The food was somewhere between disappointing and unimpressive. My marsala with chicken was a bowl of overcooked noodles with an assortment of mushrooms and an imperceptible amount of sauce. The chicken was an thin cutlet that was laid on the noodles like an afterthought. At more than $40, I expected more than this.
In short... I'd recommend stopping in for a drink to enjoy the service, setting and the unique bar. After a cocktail you can go eat down the street.

Food is delicious, Paul behind the bar is always entertaining as well as the locals who sit there. Prime rib and Venison are our favorites!

We all
Were a little disappointed, was husband and my anniversary, sharing with another couple . waiter came , all well received out drinks then our food . Food was delicious!! However our service was terrible …. He never came back and checked on us , no second wine or beer , another server refreshed our waters.. never took our plates up for a long while .. wanted to say something to manager but decide to not make a scene . Rest room was dirty no attention apparently all day ..building is really old but not very clean ….. that’s just not right in a restaurant supposedly to have ambience and gourmet food. Sanitation is a 90 . Still a A … but …. Been waiting to eat here a while . We live close in area .hate to be negative but here I am .. Best filet that’s a good thing !! 😊we just unfortunately got a bad waiter last night …….
Everything was superb - my wife had a delicious salmon filet with a pesto sauce that was out worldly, and the shrimp and grits was by far the best I’ve ever tasted with a delicious lemony cream sauce and very fresh, large shrimp. Portions were very generous, and our server was very welcoming and helpful. Wish we were staying another night to come back! Dining room and bar was full of locals.
My wife and I were in Washington to explore the town for the first time. We selected The Bank for our first dinner there. Our experience of Washington substantially exceeded our expectations and The Bank contributed substantially to that. The menu, food, ambiance, drinks list and wait-staff are excellent. My wife selected the caesar salad with shrimp and I had the bacon-wrapped venison; both were excellent. The Bank compares very favorably with the other restaurants we tried; quite possibly exceeds them. Highly recommended!
Super delicious food, spaghetti with humner was fantastic, but a really long wait for it.

Best experience! Made reservations for 6 people. Food was delicious. We had the calamari, cheese board, crab cakes, scallop pasta, pork chop, tuna special, and desserts and cocktails. All perfect. Skyler's service was excellent. He was so busy with multiple tables but remained calm, friendly, professional, patient. We'll 100% be back and highly recommend Bank Bistro.
