The Admiral

Was excited for this restaurant, but then waited 2 full hours between ordering our food (just 3 entrees) and receiving it.

Mother’s Day brunch.would love for more food options to open up on the menu at least for special occasions like Mother’s Day/Labor Day/Memorial Day etc. The Admiral is a great location to go to for good Sunday vibes.

Much better than expected! Good food, great service, and fun vibe!

Staff is great and the service phenomenal every time my crew and I go there.

Food and service was good for brunch, drinks were disappointing and I don’t think there was any alcohol in them, if so were incredibly watered. Being a huge light weight, 5 foot tall 100 lb human, after 4 orange crushes I felt absolutely nothing.

Service was great. One person order the chicken sandwich and it was raw. The manager took care of it but still leaves it hard to be hungry after biting into raw chicken. The rest of the food was good. The ambiance could have been better had the music not been so vulgar.

Great happy hour food, really tasty. Staff super attentive and kind! Great afternoon!

Rachel is an amazing waitress. She did a great job servicing both of my tables on Sunday for Brunch

Food was good. Music was a bit loud. Having a discussion was difficult

Super fun vibe and plenty of outdoor patio space! Happy hour on the weekends is nice too!

Went for happy hour. Drinks were delicious and the service was great!

With so many amazing brunch options in DC, this is not one I would recommend. The food was just okay but for the price I would have expected more and definitely better service. They don't make an effort to make the ambiance appealing. They sat us at a rickety high top table under the blaring sun and it took forever to even get napkins or cutlery. Not a place I plan on revisiting.

Our group really enjoyed hanging out on the patio - the food, drinks, and music were great. Huge shoutout to the staff for being so incredibly friendly, attentive, and accommodating. We will definitely be back!

Great spot for outside brunch! Service was fantastic.

Great food (French toast was to die for)! Nice place to spend Easter brunch

GREAT experience. Friendly staff, no issues with reserving the table and being seated on time. Good for large groups.

FOOD was AMAZING! You must try the French toast - which they make with apples and raisins and nuts (walnuts or pecans). It was TASTY.

Bottomless brunch options are worth it.

Great restaurant good price so loud and not covid friendly

Didn’t have a table for me even after I called lettin them know I was late

Very friendly servers and manager checked in with my group and was super friendly! And the food was great!

Really nice staff and yummy food! I definitely plan to come back to try other things on the menu.

Really fun sports bar if you want to watch games, have good drinks (at reasonable prices, esp if you get a pitcher) and have bar munchies. Loud, especially later in the evening, so good for a rowdy night while abiding by covid regulations. We had a ton of fun!

Food was only alright... the outdoor area lo

We went as a dinner spot, but I’d say it’s note of mediocre bar food with weak drinks. The Paloma was bland, sandwiches were so so. Chicken bites with chipotle rub were the best thing we ordered.

Food was great.. doesn’t look like a place with great food but don’t be fooled.

I was annoyed that I had reserved a spot inside, since it was chilly out, and the restaurant moved us outside instead. The heaters aren’t warm enough, and there was a strong wind.

The menu is lackluster, in my opinion - overpriced plates for mediocre food. The music they played is like top 40 hits, and they had big screens with the game on. Definitely for a younger/20s crowd. Our waitress was super attentive, though, and kept checking in with us.

Overall, I wouldn’t return though. It just seemed like a regular commercial place that overcharges you.

Good food and great service, but unfortunately, the coffeemaker was out of service for Sunday brunch (management should have checked this prior to opening). It was also a little chilly and breezy when we went at 11 am. There are no heaters so make sure you bring a coat or sweater for layering.

Great happy hour! Good food, nice upbeat vibe, good seating situation.

The food was solid insofar as brunch fare goes. The service with the drinks was slow (their bottomless brunch deal is a 90 minute window), and my group had only gotten one drink in the first 30 minutes since being seated. The reason my group chose The Admiral because their outdoor seating is really spaced out and that was a priority for my group. That being said, we were the only table on the patio without a heat lamp which would've made the experience all around much better.

Great experience! Loved the music as well as the outdoor space. Perfect for a socially distanced brunch.

Outdoor seating was great! Happy hour menu is small but good.

Great brunch experience

The Admiral has a great bottomless brunch! The service was great and the food was amazing as well. Highly recommend the Dupont BBQ Burger! Everyone was so kind and we did not feel rushed during our time!

Outdoor seating was not comfortable /heaters barely work but incredible staff and food

Valentines Day

It was my second time at this location and both times have been great!

Marcus the manager is awesome and the service is always great!

Very nice atmosphere! Food was delicious!!

Food was good. Service was excellent. Enjoyed the lively vibe. Will definitely go back.

Management kept bringing rounds of shots (and a round of drinks) that we did not order and then they all showed up on the bill. While we are happy to pay for whatever we order, we were very surprised to see items we did not order on our bill.

The Admiral is awesome. Always so accommodating plus the food and staff are fantastic!! Highly recommend.
