    Blue Caracas cocktail
    Stan H.

    Good service, respectable Korean chicken that could have used more peppers for flavoring. I am not sure if the maple syrup was 100% but I hope so considering the price. The blue cocktail had good tropical flavor and the alcohol wasn't too much which I like personally.

    We made it here our last night at the hotel. They closed early, in my opinion, for a restaurant/ bar attached to a massive hotel. The surrounding areas do not have many bars and restaurants so I would think the ones that are in the area would stay open longer, since it seems like there is a demand. We arrived about an hour and a half prior to closing. We had a disappointing dinner but were still not hungry. We browsed the menu and ordered some drinks. The place was not packed but it was definitely busy. There were at least 20 of us sitting there. The place is huge. There were plenty of places to sit but we decided to sit at the bar for quick service. Besides, since it was near closing, there might not have been table service. Our bartender was okay but not super attentive or sociable. My first drink was delivered picture perfect but my second drink did not have all the fancy garnishes. I guess it made sense since they were closing soon. The food always smelled good so maybe next time I will try the food.

    Mushroom pizza sooo goood!

    Nice atmosphere for unwinding after a busy day in DC. The lively bartenders are amazing and the mushroom pizza they recommended was, chef's kiss, perfecto! The menu is pretty limited and unfortunately included a lot of spicy food but maybe that's your jam.

    Did you know they import their pizza dough from Italy? Welp, now you do. Get the pizza, burger and flat breads. You will love them! This restaurant is located inside the Embassy Suites we were staying at. In the end it was cheaper to just eat here, not go in the cold and/or order DoorDash. Our host was so kind. He sat us down and engaged with my 10 year old son about the kids menu offering. I really appreciate it when my children have interactions with others. The food was pretty good. Yes, pricing subs a tad high. But, the quality was worth it, you are in DC and a hotel. Need something cheaper? I'm sure there is another option. But, my family needed the connivence this evening. The flatbreads and pizza were fantastic! The side house salad was pretty plentiful. My kiddos chicken tenders were massive. The old bay fries were tasty as well. I did get the burger and it just needed mayo. But, otherwise it was pretty good. Overall, we are impressed! Keep up the great work!

    What a wonderful experience!! Our waiter, Stanly was so attentive!! We walked out of an overpriced restaurant that was "out" of Iced Tea!! So glad we walked past this great restaurant!!

    Pomegranate cosmo

    Stopped by the bar as I was attending an event in the private room. As many people were grabbing a drink before the event, there www standing room only. For there to be multiple people working at the bar, I had to wait a long time to be acknowledged. I was finally had a chance to order as they were admitting folks into the event. It seemed like everyone at bar moved very slow. I ordered the pomegranate cosmo, which was good and looked very festive for the Halloween season.

We arrived around 2:45 p.m., so it was nice and quiet with plenty of seating. By the time we left around 4:45, the crowd had definitely started rolling in, so if you're looking for a more relaxed vibe, earlier is the move. Since we'd just eaten, we kept it simple with a few rounds of cocktails and an order of chips and guacamole. The guac was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. It tasted like it had just been made, and the chips were the perfect vehicle for it. Now let's talk about these drinks! First, I ordered an espresso martini, and shout out to Lucha Rosa for already making it with tequila because that's exactly how I like mine. No special requests needed! I also tried the Lucha Rosa Margarita, and whew...it was SO bomb. It was as pretty as it was delicious, which is always a win. The service was great from start to finish. There wasn't a hostess at the stand when we walked in, so we grabbed seats at the bar. She greeted us shortly after, and our bartender was friendly, attentive, and happy to answer our questions about the cocktail menu. His recommendations did not disappoint. Pricing felt comparable to other rooftop bars in the area, maybe just a touch higher, but nothing unexpected for the location and atmosphere. Speaking of atmosphere...the rooftop is gorgeous. The indoor and outdoor spaces are both beautifully designed. It was blazing hot and sunny during our visit, so we happily stayed inside enjoying the air conditioning, but I'd love to come back on a cooler evening to enjoy the outdoor space. Lucha Rosa is definitely worth adding to your happy hour or rooftop rotation. Great cocktails, fresh guac, friendly service, and a beautiful space? That's a solid combo.

I got the Lucha Rosa signature drink and then a Paloma. Both were great, they were strong but the taste of alcohol wasn't unbearable at all. That's the mix I like. The service is good too with the bartenders attending to you pretty regularly. Their food isn't impressive at all though so I'd recommend eating elsewhere after ge a drink in the sun here. We got beef and chicken tacos which weren't great but filled us up since we were starving.

Runners just do that. Run around the restaurant throwing food down on tables and run back to the kitchen. Never checking on anyone to see if they need anything and how the food is. I ordered the SW Salad ($16.50) with a steak add on ($9.00) at medium temp. I also ordered a cup of Clam Chowder ($5.95) as an appetizer. Chowder came out pretty much right on top of my salad, but no big deal. Chowder was decent taste, but only found one clam. Ok whatever. Salad came out looking like a side salad on a large plate with five slices of rare, tough steak. It was so rare, that it was extremely hard to cut through, but again, who was I going to talk to about it. No wait staff would even look my way. I couldn't even get a refill on my water and there is no place in the app to order a glass of water...so that's that. Unfortunately it was just an extremely bad experience for $40. I'll be looking for dinner somewhere else tomorrow night.

But maybe that's better for them too. You can order to-go at the window and/or request a spot in the limited spaced dining/bar area. I've only gotten the Sub Club the few times I've gone here but what can I say? its a fail proof staple that is hard to get wrong and that they do very right. I often pair it with one of their drinks, this time being the spicy ginger ale which was solid as well. There's really not much place to dine-in if you're trying to dine and go - I recommend only using the dining area if you're solo, a couple, or part of a small group (at MOST maybe - a hard maybe - on 4 people) and only if you want to use the bar. One couple tried to squeeze in a baby stroller into the bar/dining area. Its really not suitable for things like suitcases or strollers so if you're in that camp maybe try some other spots because that also made a tiny space all the more difficult to navigate. Also, if you have a mobility device, this might not be the best spot for you either. I've never used their restrooms before so can't comment on that one. I still will say it is good for when you want to grab and go - so if you're in that category, and you like moderately priced sandwiches (for this part of town) this might work for you.
