Great patio hang out on the top floor, especially on a sunny Sunday afternoon. Good food selections and quality taste too. Bartender Frankie was very friendly and helpful! Throw a party here! read more

I enjoyed the hash browns, eggs, chicken sausage, and pancakes. I will say that the pancakes and hash browns were a bit bland to taste. I would have appreciated more diverse flavors across the meal. The interior space of the restaurant is nice and the servers were attentive to dietary restrictions. Our group had a nice time catching up here for brunch! read more

801 Restaurant & Bar - Bars Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

This is a nice casual place to grab drinks and some snacks. I really enjoyed the truffle fries and the chicken bites with the different dipping sauces. The truffle fries were very fragrant and a generous portion. I also enjoyed the orange and grapefruit crush drinks. The bartenders are nice and can adjust the taste to your liking. I did have a fly go inside my drink and the bartender was able to make a new one after pointing it out. read more

I have been for both brunch and dinner. The brunch was a great deal, Bottomless Build-Your-Own Mimosas & 1 brunch entree for $38 or Bottomless Build-Your-Own Mimosas & Brunch Cocktails & 1 brunch entree $48. Great for a birthday brunch, girls day, or bachelorette. The truffle fries tasted great! Cocktails were a bit expensive, but tasted great. I liked the vibes better during the day. read more

801 Restaurant & Bar - Build your own mimosa - Bars Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

I made a last minute reservation pretty easily and it wasn't super busy, we came here on Sunday at 11:30 AM. We did have issues finding parking but it is street parking, not sure if there are any parking garages in the area. The reservation was made for the 1st floor but they didnt have issues moving us to the 2nd floor and it was so cute. There were string lights and good music. I ordered the Rubber Ducky cocktail which was super cute but not super tasty. We did ended up with getting the bottomless $28 cocktail/mimosa. My friend did the espresso martini but it seemed to missing something. The mimosas came with three different juices, orange, strawberry and peach, all delicious. For brunch, I ordered the Brunch Skillet which was delicious and had a very good spice kick. My friend got the 801 Breakfast Sandwich. It looked pretty good. Overall, we had a great time and they didn't rush us at all but the service was just a little slow, seemed like it was just 2 bartenders and I did wish they checked on us a little more but otherwise a good experience. read more

came with my girls for bottomless mimosas & cocktails for $30 & it was such a bang for our buck! the espresso martini was amazing. we sat on the rooftop which was such an amazing vibe, the music was nice. our server was awesome! i ordered the surfer burrito without egg & bacon but added fajita veggies. when they brought my food i bit into my burrito & there were eggs on it so i sent it back & they remade my entire meal. even though i ate the potatoes on my plate they brought out more potatoes for me which i loved! the only reason i'm giving it 4/5 stars is because their breakfast menu is not vegetarian/vegan friendly. i would absolutely recommend this place. read more

Kind of a run down place inside. I was immediately thrown off by the leaking ceiling over my table. There was an obvious hole that kept dripping over our table. The windows had peeling paint and chipping wood, tables were wobbling, kind of off-putting. Other than that, the bartender was great and was on top of taking care of us. The food was decent and the bottomless mimosas/cocktails are worth the price. Not sure if I'd come back though. read more

FOOD: I'd marry that French toast. There are no words just joy. Do you need a cocktail served in a bathtub...indeed, you do! SERVICE: Jamie was behind the bar and on tables. But he did not miss a beat and that was worth applause. When I arrived it wasn't busy but by the time I departed it was definitely lively. That didn't stop him from constantly checking in. He was kind, answered all my questions about menu modifications and even called the kitchen from the rooftop. AMBIANCE: The wrong rooftop on a rainy day could suck! But this WASN'T the wrong rooftop. A time was had by all. The mix of of folks who found their way up the 3 flights to 801's rooftop were a great time. The play list didn't hurt the vibes on bit. read more

We were here to grab brunch with our friends. We did not have reservations, so we got really lucky to get a nice table for 4. Hostess was very nice. We ordered bottomless mimosas for the table. They bring various juices for your mimosa and the Prosecco was great too. For food we ordered eggs with sausage and bacon. Food is mostly American with some Mexican blended into it. Huge portions as I couldn't finish mine. It was very delicious. Price was nominal compared to other brunch places. Ambiance was great. Parking can be hard to find in this area. read more

My friend and I came here before a 930 club show for dinner. They had good reviews, but I didn't take a good look at their menu. It's a bit of Mexican food for dinner, along with some other food, which was wonderful. My friend and I shared the roasted cauliflower and steak fajitas. They even provided extra tortillas for us, which came out hot. Everything was phenomenal and I would definitely come back here. The ambiance was great and they even had a rooftop I'll have to check out next time. I definitely suggest this place before a show at the 930 club or other clubs in the area. read more

Great experience at 801 - I look forward to coming back! I joined a small group of friends for happy hour on a Friday evening around 5:45. We were strolling along Florida Ave and saw the open rooftop; decided to check it out and I'm so glad we did. This is a three story American style bar and restaurant with fantastic HH deals. We spent our time on the top floor which has it's own bar, covered rooftop area, and a scattering of other seating options around the rooftop's edge. The rooftop coverings and multiple fans kept the area cool even when it was 85+ degrees outside. Their happy hour is fantastic; runs from 4-7 on Monday through Friday. Offers $7 and under bites such as old bay fries, cauiliflour wings, and popcorn chicken. The drinks options include some $7 cocktails such as flavored crushes and $5 rail drinks. We tried the fries, chicken, and cauliflour to snack on while enjoying a variety of the HH drinks. To me, the popcorn chicken stole the show - perfectly seasoned, crispy, and delicious. It also came with a delicious house dipping sauce. Would 100% get it again. Service was fast (even when the rooftop got a little busier as the evening rolled on); we never waiting more than 10-15 seconds it seemed to grab our bartenders attention to drop in an order. Overall, a really great experience - awesome spot to enjoy some fresh air, DC views, and good barfare. read more

I haven't been to many rooftop spots. I'm changing that, & this spot is one of many to come!! With that being said I went to this rooftop spot on Florida avenue In N.W. D.C. Let's go... . Where I am: @801dc . Location Reviewed: 801 Florida Ave., N.W. Washington D.C. . Menu Includes: *See Website* https://www.801dc.com/ . Items Reviewed: Their 801 Rum Punch (Coconut rum, with a house punch $12). DECENT. More rum than flavor... Their Lemon Crush Mocktails (with lemonade, & a spritzer $7). PASS. One of the drinks had something floating in it, the other, unfortunately was too bitter. Their QuesaBirria Tacos (beef birria, with chihuahua cheese, inside a blue corn tortilla with consummé $18). DELICIOUS. Cheesy, meaty, & crunchy...with the consummé...good. Their Steak Tid Bits (chopped flank steak with sautéed peppers, onions, & horseradish sauce over a bed of fries $12). DELICIOUS. The steak was a tad too tough, but its seasoning was...good. Their Lobster Mac & Cheese Balls (chopped lobster, & deep fried mac n cheese beignets with a marinara sauce $13). DECENT. I needed more flavor, & lobster. Their Pomme Frites (fries with ketchup, & house dipping sauce $8). DECENT. They were ok fries, with a tangy mayo dip. Their Strawberry Salad (with spinach, goat cheese, walnuts, & a raspberry vinaigrette $12). PASS. The vinaigrette was overpowering, & the strawberries weren't fresh. Their Chili Salmon (with chili ancho, Chile guajillo, mashed sweet potato, & a mango pico de gallo $22). PASS. The salmon was old, & extremely fishy. This combination didn't blend well. Their Chicken Al Pipian (fried chicken with pipian Rojo, spinach, & rice $18). DELICIOUS. Well fried, the Rojo was...good. . Online Navigation: Easy . Customer Service: Decent. They spoke. But it just took a while for me & my company to get served. . Parking: ROUGH!! Uber, Bus, Subway, Lyft!! . Music: YouTube-Backyard Band Pocket . Recommendations: The fries. 5 Stars=STAMP 4 1/2 Stars=LIKE THAT 4 Stars=DELICIOUS 3 Stars=DECENT 2 Stars=PASS 1 Star=NAH #Bigschlimsreviews read more

This was my first time here at 801, and I must say I enjoyed myself. It wasn't busy because it was the holiday, so people probably assumed they were closed. My steak was good, just the way I like it medium rare. Scrambled with cheese, and they do charge extra for cheese. I could have had more, but it's all good. I wanted potatoes, but those fries hit the spot! The sauce on the side I poured some on my steak, which is oil and herbs. Mimosas... 3 different flavors OJ, peach, and I believe strawberry... don't quote me on that because I can't remember. It's definitely worth a visit, and all of my friends' food looked pretty good, too! Check it out!!!! read more

What an unexpected surprise! I was meeting up for happy hour with friends elsewhere, but... the power was out? I tell ya, the heat and these storms are causing so many problems around the area. Anyways, we just decided to start walking in the direction of U Street, and BAM... we spotted a rooftop and saw a sign outside that there was happy hour until 7. We went inside and the AC felt so good -- the first floor was fairly quiet. We went up the stairs and noticed the second floor had a nice bar and was a little busier. And then we got to the top and we were the only ones -- the rooftop is covered, but the sides are open so you can take in the views. It was hot, but they had so many fans blasting it was just fine. We sat at the bar and had a great time. I had the most refreshing tray of roasted cauliflower bites, and my buddy got some scrumptious popcorn chicken. Fries were great too, but those other items were just WOW. Now those are great happy hour bites. Their happy hour goes from 4-7 on weekdays, and they currently have some later specials whenever they have Love Island watch parties. The vibe was quite nice, I must say. This experience definitely motivated me to return in the future. read more

801 was pretty good. It has a pretty normal, crowd pleasing menu and reasonable prices. You aren't going to be wowed but you aren't going to be disappointed, either. Many of the reviews on here are for brunch, but I visited for dinner on a Saturday. It was pretty quite at ~6 PM. I sat on the first floor, which was a friendly if somewhat plain space. The menu is mostly Tex Mex and American, with dishes like tacos and burritos but also burgers and salmon. To drink, we had beer: Right Proper Raised by Wolves ($8) and Modelo ($7). Then we had the Quesabirria Tacos which had two large birria tacos with consomme ($18). And the Chicken Al Pipian, which was two pieces of fried chicken with pipian rojo, spinach, and rice. Pipian sauce was new to me -- it's a Mexican sauce made with pumpkin seeds and dried red chilies. Both entrees were solid. The pipian sauce wasn't spicy, but had a nice, slightly spiced, savory flavor. The rice reminded me of butter rice when I was a kid, which I liked. The fry on the chicken was very good, although the chicken itself could have used some more flavor, either from a brine or from some spices in the fry. The tacos were pretty standard -- beef, melted cheese, a little bit of burnt cheese flavor, and broth. Service was friendly and timely. Again, pretty good but also pretty average. read more

I stopped by recently for brunch. This place was packed on a Sunday. They feature 3 floors. 2 floors with bars and a rooftop bar with great views. Staff here are friendly and work well together. We arrived for our reservation time and they are very strict with your 2 hour time slot. We got the bottomless mimosas and cocktails option. Food wise we ordered everything from the avocado toast, 2 egg breakfast, California Benedict, steak + eggs, and the breakfast of champions. Everyone agreed the steak was the highlight today. Meat was tender, cooked perfectly and great fat to meat ratio. The chimichurri demi was amazing. I would request that on the side to dip with your fries. My friends and I stayed for the entire 2 hour duration. The staff was accommodating and allowed us to bring our drinks up stairs. The rooftop featured some tvs, shade and bench seating to do some people watching. Overall, the value here cannot be beat. For $48, bottomless mimosas and 6 other drinks to choose from is a steal in the District. Yes, there are places that have bottomless food as well, but we definitely got our $ worth with each of us having 2-3 espresso martinis. Highly recommend coming here for brunch. They have some fun brunch cocktails to order and a nice variety of food items. read more

Yelp reviews led us to this brunch at this lovely place! Off the street parking was hard to find, so we parked in the lot down the block, which was $20. Unfortunately we were stuck in traffic, so we arrived too late to enjoy bottomless mimosas. However, we did enjoy an orange crush and espresso martini. Both were really good, but if you're a coffee lover, then the martini is your choice. My husband's first entree choice was brisket and eggs but they were sold out. Our waiter suggested steak and eggs instead, and he thoroughly enjoyed it. I had popcorn chicken and French toast. The chicken was just enough protein to compliment the French toast, which were made with french bread I believe. 5 STARS! I would love to go back and enjoy a brunch full of mimosas! read more

Highly recommend brunch on the second floor! There are a variety of seating options, we chose the bar. Both Tago and Kevin were welcoming and attentive. As I explained that day, I found the spot on Yelp that morning and wanted to try the food! The Breakfast of Champions dish was EVERYTHING! (5 stars) It was filling and had lots of all ingredients! My friend ordered the chorizo tacos which she liked but vowed to try the dish I ordered the next time. The Bottomless Mimosas were lovely; especially because you're given the juice on the side. I ordered strawberry and my friend ordered grapefruit. They also offer a good deal with cocktails as well! The only part I didn't like was the $4 charge for one slice of toast. I think I've found my new Sunday brunch spot! read more

Came here for my friend's birthday brunch. The food was good but the service could have been better.

So the bigger the total the bigger the tip. They sang to her which was nice. read more

I was so pleasantly surprised how tasty the brunch skillet was! Potatoes, chorizo, bell pepper, onions, jalapeños, cheese, eggs how you like them and green salsa??? Yeah I'd order it again and again, whole cast iron was cleeeean when I left the table! Type of meal you eat and wish you had some to save for later! Another plus, we did bottomless and weren't searching waiting for our server to fill our glasses. We left sufficiently buzzed annnnd we were content with the price we paid at the end. For bottomless especially, you can spend over $75 at some of these places in DC but 801 is not on that list and I'm grateful! I hope to be back soon and I hope the skillet never leaves the menu! It was poppin' so I'd recommend a reservation, especially for the weekend! read more

This place is great if you want a good value brunch. There's a bunch of bottomless drink deals, but I opted for the single Bellini which is $10 each. I got the Breakfast of Champions, but mine came with sunny side up eggs. It was delicious but would have been even better with scrambled eggs. It is a lot of food! My friend got the French toast which is also a special. Our bartender/waitress (Lindsey, i think) was very kind and welcoming. Will definitely come back. read more

Very cute brunch spot with truly bottomless mimosas and pretty good food. Considering our party was about 12-15 people, the waitress kept the bottles on the table Coming. I think there was only one mixup on an order...and again for a table of 12-15...pretty impressive. Okay, so things I enjoyed: - food was pretty good. 4/5 stars for sure. Breakfast tacos and the Benedict were both pretty delicious. - the bottomless was bottomless AND we had several Juice options to make our mimosas to our liking. - the ambience is a fun brunch vibe (at least on a SundAy morning) - reasonably priced - they have an app that lets you split the bill solely based on what you ordered! It was so great. made life easy for everyone. Overall...a good time was had. Will be back to try more of the menu and take a peak at their non-brunch options. read more

This restaurant used to be one of my faves within the area. I knew I could always count on them for either some good pasta or their fabulous salmon that they USED to have. For the longest I would always drive by and call, hoping that they will open back up soon. They have finally opened back up and it has come to my attention that they have a new menu. I was hoping to get my favorite salmon dish when I was caught by surprise to find out about due new menu. I thought I could trust getting the new chili salmon, but I was quickly brought to my senses. The sauce alone brought the salmon from a 10 to a 6, highly disappointed. This new dish had me wishing for old management back (they said they kept the same owner, but switched management). With the old salmon dish I got rice AND a vegetable. Not this time though, it only comes with a starch, no vegetable. Break my heart, LOL! Despite the food not being the same, the customer service is always lovely. read more

Brunch, oh brunch! Service- Celeste was amazing. Not only was she by herself but she took such good care of us ( and Dre I say her 5+ other at tables) She was personable, professional, and attentive. Alex in the upstairs bar was pretty lovely too. Shoutout to the bussers, food runners, and manager that was supporting her. Vibe - great lighting, decor is cute, great music brunch selection. We were all singing at one point. Food- great flavors, large portion sizes. We got the calamari, lobster Mac and cheese balls(the ), popcorn chicken to start. And then we got the crab cake sandwich, brisket hash, and avocado toast. I didn't want bred on my crab cake sandwich and Celeste offered a lettuce wrap, yes please! Drinks- it's a 2 hour bottomless. You get your own bottle of champagne and several juice options. Orange, strawberry, grapefruit, and another I can't remember. Choose your adventure. I'm a mimosa purist, so love that I could just do that with no juice. (Why waste the additional calories, hehe) All in all the food, drinks, vibes, and service was terrific. read more

Omg so I was a little Leary about this place. But pleasantly surprised! I stuck with French toast to be safe. It was amazing! They don't use the normally Texas toast bread! I liked it! I added bacon cause I love bacon! The place is 3 stories. They put our table outside, so we ended up having to sit at the bar. We would have had to wait another 30 min to move to an inside table. I didn't like that since we did not choose to be outside and it was raining. But overall it was good. Our second bar tender wasn't very nice at all! It was clear she didn't want to work that day! read more
