Excellent food and service. Of the 6 at the table, 50 percent were vegetarians and we were all happy with the hearty options. My only recommendation would be to offer better dessert options.

When we arrived at 7:45 PM, place was completely empty. We were taking our friends visiting from UK to 1905 for dinner and it was so awkward that this place was deserted. We first decided to order few drinks and then go to some place else but as we ordered drinks and apps, people started walking in and food was good so decided to continue with our dinner. While food is very good but I find it overpriced for the ambiance and setting itself. Ordered shrimp n grits, tuna, chicken and grains in entree and all of them were good,m but can't justify paying 100 bucks for 4 of them.

Food was below average. The caviar and tater tots were a disappointment. The pork belly appetizer was decent but rubbery. Brazed short rib was over cooked and very dry. Ordered a vodka and soda and was not pleased to find they sent out a gin and soda. I ended up drinking it because the waitress took too long to come back. Overall, much better places to eat and drink in the U Street corridor.

What a wonderful surprise. We were visiting DC and chose 1905 for restaurant week. When we pulled up in our Uber we were a little concerned from the appearance of the outside. Inside we were pleasantly surprised and the roof top deck was awesome. Food and service were a 10. Small menu but diverse. Short ribs were amazing. Will definitely return on our next trip to DC.

For Restaurant Week, order 1 appetizer and 1 entrée from the regular menu, plus 1 dessert from a rotating list. All of the food we ate was outstanding, and so were the craft cocktails. Definitely worth a return visit!

Checked out 1905 for Restaurant Week and left feeling satisfied with the food and feel of this place. They were gracious with the two appetizers we ordered: big servings of Black Eyed Pea Hummus and Caviar and Tator Tots. However, the Shrimp and Grits left the greatest impression on me--it tasted more Charleston than D.C. Honestly, the menu at 1905 takes the mainstays of American food (ribs, burgers, BBQ, and fries) and elevates them with sides and flavors that are somehow both comforting and complex. Delicious!

So disappointing. There was literally NO ONE else there besides us in the entire restaurant, and I can see why. :-(
