    Water and old fashioned
    Erica L.

    So let's get into it. I love that this place is so close to home for me. It is a sight for sore eyes in our community. As far as location, it is tucked away and not completely obvious from the street. I drove past it for weeks without realizing it was there. Parking is interesting due to location, but it does exist and I've never not found a spot (sorry for the double negative). As far as the vibe when you go in, everything you would generally expect. IDs are checked at the door! There is indoor and outdoor seating (hookah is only served outdoors). There is bar seating and tables. Tables can be reserved a head of time as well. Now, I have been 3-4 times and always on Wednesdays (Karaoke Night). I have ordered the crab cake sliders and the burger sliders. I was not a fan of the crab cake sliders, but the burger sliders hit for me. I've ordered an array of beverages from here including but not limited to tequila shots (don repo), old fashion, margaritas, and more. I was not a huge fan of the old fashion, but you have to note where you are. This is a good chill turn up spot. I will be back and recommend to anyone in the area looking for a slight more "city vibe" that we don't typically get in Maryland.

    I think this is a spot I would come back to! Here's more details on my experience. So we walked in without a reservation. I contacted them earlier in the week and since Saturday was their grand opening, they let me know they weren't taking any more reservations but I could walk in. Strategically, we decided to go right at 5 pm when they opened, which was a great idea because an hour or so later it got packed in there. The service was a little slow but that is to be expected as they work out kinks, literally went on the first day they opened, so be patient if you visit them in these early days. The staff was nice and I liked the vibes in there. We ordered a lemon drop (with vodka) and mango lemon drop (with tequila). I will say, how the drinks came to us, they were not filled up to the top. I think I was just a little thrown off because I would have expected them to use smaller cups or fill the drink to the top, but I think they weren't filled to the top because there wasn't ice in them. So technically, I don't think they did anything wrong, but I just wanted more of the drink lol. Drinks were good but were on the sweeter side. We got the buffalo wings and the sauce was really good! Wings could have been crispier (weren't crispy at all) but that's a personal preference. Crab dip was a normal crab dip, so it was good, and our favorite was the salmon sliders. They were cooked perfectly and had good flavor. We did not order hookah but if you're wondering, it is $60. Parking is a little rough but since we got there early we found parking easily. Music was great in there too!

    Nice spot in my backyard. Friendly bartender I had, the guy bartender seemed to be very playful and should also practice better hygiene (handwashing after eating & licking fingers, then prepare customer drink) happy hour menu was reasonably priced. Wings kinda big in size if that's an issue for you. Drinks were ok. Only 2 suggestions would be: have staff not eat behind the bar (maybe designated area/booth) and to look into the sewer smell as you enter and near bar. After seating for awhile, your nose will get used to it but occasionally you'll get a fresh whiff.

    A new lounge that you can get a quick bite, drink or smoke hookah. The food was good and the bartender was helpful when asked for options.

The actual hookah was mid at best for D.C I was expecting a lot better. Then when it came to the bill we were charged $4 for each bottle (of which we were not even told there was a charge at all for water, and no we did not specifically ask for a sealed bottle all we asked for was water the sever never said tap or bottled, she just automatically brought us sealed) when on the menu they were priced at $3.50 sure it's .50 but when there was five that .50 extra could have almost bought another bottle. Also when she brought the bill she did not even show the itemized bill at first all she showed was the tip screen which upon doing the math from what we ordered vs paid we realized the amount was way higher than what we got and so we asked for the copy of the receipt only to find out there was ALREADY a service charge on there of which was NOT a credit card charge because we paid in cash and when asked what the cash total was she told us $60.31 yet the copy showed the cash price was $57.91 also they charge for charcoal, what am i suppose to do bring my own charcoal? i've never had to pay extra for charcoal they just include it with hookah price, absolutely ridiculous. Not to mention the vibes in this place is like an absolute funeral, all the pictures made this place look so fun and great, but no it was worse than funeral. I felt even more so like i was at a funeral after I realized how badly my wallet was robbed. I will never come back here.

They also had a beautiful bar with stool top chairs and a huge television/ monitor. This place can literally used for anything from family get together, parties, club nights, but for us it was used to hold our repass. The owners were extraordinary people and we were thankful to be able to use there space for our event. If you are looking for a great location venue give this place a look. You'll be glad you did.

    This review is for the food not the service…read more The interior gives off a nice vibe and they have a set up for a live band. I'm sure when it's peak time it's live in there so I'll have to come back for an event. Went around noon on a Sunday and it was fairly empty so we sat at the bar and were serviced immediately. Strawberry lemon drop - 10/10 - I love a good lemon drop but a I'll never pass up a flavored one. No notes. Shrimp & Grits - 5/10 - don't get me wrong it was GOOD but it was too rich/cheesy to me. I don't know what I was expecting in terms of cheese but I've never had soooooo much cheese in an order of shrimp and grits. I legit pulled a mound of cheese off the top and it was still too much. I couldn't finish this unfortunately, even taking them home for another day didn't work because I couldn't take the richness. Not a slight to them, just a no for me. There was a great amount of shrimp in the dish and the consistency of the grifts were amazing. Just need something to cut through the richness. My friend had: Omelette - 10/10 - said they enjoyed it and would get it again Side of bacon - 10/10 - you got 6 pieces with the order and that was solid to me. I'd definitely come back and try something else on their brunch menu if given the chance. It's a bit out the way so I couldn't see myself traveling for it but if I was in the area I definitely would come back.

Just one other group of me, maybe some jazz music in the background, while we watched Basketball on the screen Best part about SOBEs was Mrs. Elaine, the bartendar. I would rate the food a 2.5/5. I had the shrimp tacos, which lacked flavor. The shrimp was bland. The Bang Bang shrimp was lacked flavor also. We barely touched these, so disappointing. People started showing up @ 7pm. which was $20 to get in. An AMAZING live cover band played at 9pm. By 7:45 pm, there was also a live DJ playing classic hip hop and RnB. That was such a VIBE! The crowd got really thick for the band, you literally had to push your way to the bathrooms. Bathrooms also need napkins to dry your hands with, instead of the nasty air hand dryers

I was told it would take 45 minutes to prepare the salmon, so I waited. After 45 minutes, I asked for an update and was told it would be another 15 minutes. After waiting those additional 15 minutes, I checked again and was told another 10 minutes. When I asked once more after waiting the extra 10 minutes, I was told they were still waiting on the spinach. After waiting well over an hour with no food and no clear communication, I asked for my order to be canceled. This level of service is unacceptable, especially since this is the third time I've experienced this issue. I enjoy the atmosphere, but consistently leaving without my meal due to excessive delays is frustrating and disappointing.

Most of the time fish is a hit. But every now and then ( last night) to be precise, my fish was over cooked. I had to bite and pull with my teeth. By the time I started eating and realized it was overcooked, the kitchen was closed. The drinks don't always taste like what you asked for but they are strong if that's what you like. They have a police officer at the door most nights, which makes it feel a bit safer. It's definitely a cheers type of bar, everyone knows everyone. Music is old school for the most part, but they have a jukebox so the music can be adjusted. It's a nice hole in the wall. The bathroom really sucks. You have to dam near turn sideways and use the stall with the door opened. That's the one thing I hate about this spot. Seems like they tried to turn one unisex bathroom into 2 stalls. I'm pretty sure the men's room looks the same.

Also, there were only 2 bartenders working and AT LEAST 100 people present. The music was super loud and the sour smell at the bar was unbearable!!! I could not stay here long due to the heat and smell. This place has no security whatsoever, which seems a bit strange for the amount of people that were present.
