Literally my favorite place in the area. Food is incredible from around the globe, service is outstanding no matter who it is, and the atmosphere is amazing! It gives you a concert venue feel with an amazing sound system. They book the best bands and have different themes during the week. There’s something for everyone here!

Had some drinks and saw a local cover band. Had a fun time. Bartenders are friendly and on point with the drinks.

If you are a group of women, I would not come here. Just be warned, a lot of single guys come here to hit on women, many of them get very drunk and become aggressive. Management does not pay attention. A lot of these guys were raised by monkeys. Love band otherwise very

Whew worst bar I’ve ever been to in my entire life. Food’s trash, the drinks suck, everything’s overpriced, owner’s son’s a perv, and the security are a bunch of mindless thugs. Don’t bother coming here.

Delicious new place for the No Agenda Meetup!

Got harassed by a woman, but bouncers believed the drunk woman instead of me, and kicked me out. I rejected her advances, and she got offended that I didn't want her to touch me, so she called security. It was extremely embarrassing. I asked for security footage to prove my case and bouncers rejected it. I got sent away while the harassing woman got to keep verbally abusing customers.Sucks, because the bands are really cool, but the security there will not do their job and remove unruly people that ruin the fun.Imagine spending $100+ on drinks for your friends, some woman wants to touch you, you reject her and she calls security who kicks you out before you even get to enjoy your drink. It felt like I got robbed.

What a crazy odd gem of a place this is. I was on business and had really not been impressed by the DC food scene at all. Ended up here because the place I was going to wasnt open yet and I figured I could blow off some time and have a couple of beers. This place is almost all black inside and is setup to handle a lot of live rock bands. Looked at the menu and its really weird for a rock band bar and I figured no big deal - beers will be good. Telling the bartender about my trip and disappointment when the owner comes out. Would never tell this guy was the owner by the mohawk punk rock look he had but he and the staff are super cool and laid back people. He says let me order you something to try. Out come dishes.Lemongrass beef - thought for sure this would be chewy hard overcooked griddled sirloin steak. Imagine my surprise - super tender, super flavorful sweet sour salty Asian grilled seared steak what I think is a cut similar to flank steak.Next the pretzel sticks with queso - these arent normal pretzel sticks - they have an outside look like pretzels and have a crunch but are soft and a touch of sweetness with almost a donut chew to them coated in a fine salt pepper maybe garlic? powder seasoning. I am a bit of a foodie snob and can cook about anything and have no idea how to replicate because its just a pretzel right? But its NOT JUST a pretzel - soo good.Lamb chops - coated in what I think is a cinnamon cardamon crust grilled to perfection. Incredible grilled tender lambchops.This place is every bit a high end restaurant in a rock bar vibe. This is not the place to get all dressed up for fine dinning - its the place to take a date, eat crazy amazing food and rock out. If the marketing manager sees this - SEND ME THE PRETZEL RECIPE!!!
