Excellent place! I normally leave work just in time for their happy hour and bring friends when possible. The service is always outstanding and the ambiance always pleasant. I totally recommend Potomac Social Tavern!

So I'm working in DC this weekend and every i come i stay at the Crown Plaza in Arlington. The hotel is amazing but, the restaurant, Potomac Tavern is just amazing! The service, the food and best of all, the people. I asked my bartender to make me something special. I think I just had the BEST Old fashion ever! He used there own brand of whiskey, Potomac whiskey. So smooth and the flavors just popped! SO GOOD!
Of you are in the...

My wife and I go here for “date night” during there happy hour (4-6p). Medilyn provides excellent service and can mix up a wide selection of cocktails. All of their food is good - street tacos are my go to, mussels with a tasty tomato sauce is my back up. Try this hidden gem in the Crown Plaza hotel.
