Very noisy for a dinner location. Looks like great bar scene however. I would not recommend this place for a meal.

Just awful .... food and not the best for dinner meals. This is more of a pub. We left and went a few steps to Clyde’s.

Food is better than average and prices are consistent with DC. Service is friendly and usually attentive, but once in a while they fail to refill a drink. We will return again as it’s a convenient location near the arena along with good food.

One would think that a restaurant, in a major city and next to a large arena, would be staffed and prepared for a concert/game/event. Nope. Even with a reservation, the service was AWFUL!!! It took 45 minutes to get food ordered and drinks served, after we already waited 30 mins to order. When I complained to the manager and said we could no longer wait for our order, he still brought over the check. I had to debate with him about what we didn't receive and would not be paying for. He tried to say he took off 5 drinks for our group, but he took off the happy hour priced drinks that we did get and not the 8 full price drinks we ordered and never received. The food we did get wasn't very good either. Find another place to go.
