What an excellent experience this was. When I heard about Jose Andres and his collaboration with capital one I was very intrigued. The space seemed quaint at first glance. I noticed it did not seem as private as other closed off lounges. This did not affect my experience whatsoever. Somehow they still made it feel cozy while being able to see the on going commute outside. The food was delicious and diverse. I was happy they had classics like hummus and avocado. They had a sufficient amount of vegan options and my personal favorite vegan chilaquiles. For people with no restrictions this place has food like eggs Benedict and waffles. All dishes seemed elevated. The coffee was able to be selected with different plant milks. The service was great. While they were attentive they were not overbearing. It's nice to be able to relax and capital one surely made this place shine.

The foods at this lounge are always good. I was pretty happy with how authentic some of the breakfast orders felt. The staff was a little less attentive this time than I remembered. Since the change in the entry policy, the lounge is a little less crowded now but still not quiet.

Capital One Lounge was the perfect stop before boarding the plane. Everything was great, I just wish there was a little more grab and go options. The service was phenomenal and there was multiple people checking in and offering help. The lounge itself was nice and seemed like a good place to work, check emails, etc. before your flight.

Every time I'm at DCA, I make it a priority to make it to this spot. It's located conveniently in the main terminal and makes it easy when leaving to get to your gate. I've never had to wait to get entrance and the staff is always incredibly kind. There is plenty of space and tables but not much "lounge" space like your typical airport lounges, more like a restaurant. The food is ordered by app on your phone and is admittedly pretty small in portion sizes; however the taste is phenomenal. The drinks are spectacular, especially the espresso martini! I love this spot.

Booked a reservation in advance, even though it was not too crowded when I got there. The QR code ordering was down, so a staff member came to take orders. Food and drinks came out quick and service was great!

Items sold in the cafe - half off with Cap One credit card

Great new addition to DCA! For years there hasn't been lounge access and I'm happy Capital One has finally created a space for its consumers. You may only use this space for 3 hours prior to flight departure. Not for any arriving flights. Complimentary access for Capital One card owners. Entry fee for non card holders (maybe $90?). Wait times are long as they sometimes cannot keep up with demands and limited seating areas. Sign in at the desk and you'll get a text when they have space. I waited 45 minutes. The check in area feels cramped with two podiums and way too many checkin staff crowded at the front. Once you get a text, you have 10 minutes to arrive or you may have to sign up again. Once checked in, you have an assigned seat based on size of your party. So you won't have a choice on preferred seating section. Once seated, scan the QR code on the table where you may place an order for any menu items including drinks. They also have an area with quick item snacks like cheese & crackers, hummus, veggies, meats and you can obtain your dessert items here. They offer fancy teas from Art of Tea and coffee. Paper cups available if you want to take a drink to go on your way out. Soft drinks & water available in the mini fridge. I tried the vegetarian and vegan options. The lentil soup was good and filling. Three cheese grill cheese is good but a bit too much cheese making it heavy. Also tried a rice with tofu & avocado. This was okay. Needed a sauce or some added flavor. My guava mocktail was refreshing. Hummus & veggies were good. The soft serve with cocoa nibs & sea salt was good. Comes in a cute smiling cup. There are no to-go items or take away options. So plan on staying seated to dine. There is free WiFi, charging stations at your seat, and single restroom available. I hope they add more healthy options. *** Tip - if there is a long wait time and you can't get in, they have a small cafe of quick items for sale. With a Cap One credit card, all items are half off! I got the vegan chickpea salad and a Pressed juice for roughly $12? Good deal at the airport! Coffee, croissants, and some of the items from the lounge are also sold here.

Pros and cons on this update. Pros are still all food and drink based. They added additional items to their dinner menu, including tacos and steak and one or two veggie options which were great additions and awesome to expand the menu for more options. Dessert continues to be amazing, the added salt and chocolate sauce for the oat soft serve is perfect. They were even coming around doing caviar cones for people so that was cool. Downsides, I tried to sign up for the waitlist ahead of time but I wouldn't let me so had to wait to show up and get on the list which was a pain. Then they put me on the list despite there being multiple tables and individual seats open. I went up after a couple minutes and asked about it and they didn't really have an answer and let me take one of the many individual seats that were open.

Avocado Toast - delish couple bites!
Lisa S.

Great way to wait for your flight - calm ambience, delicious food, and feels like a treat! Recommend making a reservation ahead of time as they can get busy! Really enjoyed their mocktail - Flamingo Shuttle Guava, Vanilla, Citrus, Club soda! Food wise, everything we had was good. My personal favorite was the avocado toast!

The Capital One Landing never ever disappoints. In fact, I make it a point to always now book all of my domestic flights out of DCA in order to make flying more bearable. The before flight libations and mini Michelin type tapas are just what you need for a short and long haul flights to the other coast and anywhere in the continental US. Thank the lord, Capital One had the wherewithal to team up with Jose Andres Just one tip- make sure to reserve in advance your spot so that you can avail yourself of all of the fabulous food, otherwise you will have a long wait or GASP!! not be able to get in all

My first time visiting this lounge and I loved it. Great menu, wonderful staff, clean, easy ordering and not busy at all when I visited. One of my favorite lounges.

A great open cafe for those with a Capital One Venture X card. Entry is free for those with the card, for all others it is $90. A great place with small plates. The menu is delicious. I enjoyed manchego cheese, baba ghanoush, small fry, chickpea salad and much more. You can order hot items via the QR code. The service was great once inside. It was very speedy. Where I had a small issue was that at one point there was an hour wait. Which is understandable. But there were what seemed to be many empty tables and there are a lot of employees here- they all seemed to be just hanging around. So I wondered why people couldn't just be seated? Maybe there is more to the story? Who knows. A great place to visit if you are short on time. Located by D Gates

I have never been to a Capital One Lounge and this was my first time. So to clarify, this is Capital One Landing, not your classic lounge. This is more like a restaurant since they will assign you a seat. I came here during breakfast and I really really enjoyed all their dishes. Everything is on the QR code with additional side dishes at the bar. If you hold a Capital One Venture card, everything is free, otherwise each guest is $45 I believe. All my food and drinks were brought to me very fast. The ambiance is very calm and had the same vibe as any other lounge. It is a great place to do some work while getting delicious food. And yes, I would say the food at Capital One Landing has been much better than any of the lounges I have gone to so far (at least domestically). I really hope they expand Capital One Landing to other airports as well. So dar, it only exists in DCA at D.C. and LGA at NYC.

Grab & Go (paid, not free); 50% off (Capital One VentureX)
James M.

IMO, the best lounge in the DMV. Mainly bc of the partnership with Jose Andres, resulting in high quality F&B. Complimentary access via Capital One VentureX. Menu via QR code. Order as much as you want straight from your phone. Doesn't get much easier. I used to prefer flying out of IAD, but this lounge is the main reason why I started leaning towards DCA. Looking forward to trying their (latest & greatest) LGA lounge in the near future, which is supposed to be even bigger & better.

The interior of this location was immaculate. The food was good and who can say no to free bevs and a option tinshoeer? My biggest gripe however was the fact that this lounge gets really crowded really quickly.

I loved the entryway with the open feeling staircase, and the chairs look so cozy in the initial seating area, like you're entering a friend's living room. My main frustration was overcrowding. Even though the staff implements a strict 3 hour rule for people to come to the lounge prior to departure, it still felt like and swamped. There was a nice variety of food in that area, but nothing that particularly stood out as extraordinary. The cabbage fattoush salad that I tried was lacking in flavor. I'm glad I got to experience it, but probably won't make coming back here a priority.

Dear reader, The…read moreCenturion Lounge at DCA is a very civilised way to begin a trip and, in my view, one of the more enjoyable airport lounges to spend time in. A number of recent reviews praise the lounge for its attractive design, comfortable seating, strong food and drink program, and thoughtful amenities, and that all feels quite fair. It is in Terminal 2 near the south security checkpoint, and the lounge's own materials describe it as a spacious, elegant place to relax, refresh, and have a cocktail before a flight. What I especially love are the wellness shots, the coffee machines, and the open bar. Those little wellness shots feel like the sort of optimistic airport decision one ought to make before boarding, and the coffee setup is genuinely excellent if one needs to become a person again before takeoff. The bar is also a very strong point in its favour. American Express highlights its curated cocktail, wine, and non-alcoholic drink selection, and that polish absolutely comes through. Everyone is also very nice, which makes a difference. Add in the comfortable atmosphere and the feeling that you can actually pause for a moment before flying, and it all makes for a thoroughly pleasant pre-flight ritual. A proper little oasis at DCA.

The lounges that I've been to have been because of travel companions. The Amex Lounge was no different! My sweet friend booked breakfast in Arlington, the Pentagon area that is what he said. When my uber picked me up, the app said I was heading to the Amex Lounge at the airport. I laughed because I thought I was eating at the airport and airport food isn't always the best. I thought our weekend was starting off odd. But I don't complain and go with the flow, so if you like it, I love it. I had my bags because we always do staycations, so with my bag in tow he meets me at the uber upon drop-off and says our dinner reservations are in Florida, hope you don't mind that's why I had you pack your bags. What a surprise. He says we have time to go to the Amex lounge to grab breakfast before we take off. I am speechless, literally speechless. We grab our tickets and head straight to the lounge. Wow! Okay so I've been to the Capital One Lounge and that was great but honestly AMEX is killing it! The food was actually really good! Bar is awesome! Everything was clean! It's newer so it's phenomenal! I've been told I need lounge access for as much as I travel. I immediately got on my phone to search to get the AMEX card, that's how nice this place was. Luckily he asked what I was doing on my phone. I said I need to be able to come here all year long so I'm going to throw the flag in and get a card. He laughed and said it would be easier just to add me to his account. And just like that, I'm a AMEX card holder! The card came in 3 business days. I'll be coming to this airport early! And will be looking forward to traveling this year to visit all the AMEX lounges. Amex is the way to go! Oh and a little life hack, our plan never works. Gods plan does! Grateful.

The NICEST and newest Admirals Club at DCA is at the E Gates!…read more I've been to the American Airlines Admirals Clubs at the C and D Gates, but the E Gates location is on a completely different level. Since the D Gate Club was closed for renovation during my visit, I decided to give the E Gate Club a try--and I definitely wasn't disappointed. This is easily the nicest and most modern Admirals Club at DCA. It's large, spacious, bright, and has a much more contemporary feel than the other clubs in the terminal. There's simply more room to spread out, which makes a big difference when the airport is busy and you're trying to escape the terminal chaos. The food selection also seemed larger than what I've seen at the other Admirals Clubs, although I suspect the actual offerings are probably pretty similar across the terminal. Either way, there were plenty of options to grab something to eat and a drink before the flight. After spending time at the C and D Gate clubs, walking into the E Gate location definitely felt like an upgrade. If you're flying American out of DCA and have access to the E Gate Admirals Club, this is definitely worth checking out. It's a substantial upgrade in terms of space, design, and overall atmosphere.

Same food as early this week and same food through the week. -coke machine sprays -for the size, limited bathroom space but only matters at busy times. Also one one side and it's a long lounge. -back room gets hot if there's son... doesn't look like there are shades Overall this is one of the better ones with plenty of power plugs and seating. I do prefer this one over the ones in Dallas and Charlotte though.

This would've been a higher rating (and more pleasant visit) if bartender (Simone) was more accommodating with my drink request. I was asked by Simone to move from one designated line to another (which placed me behind more guests). Next, I was asked for my drink order (2 classic margaritas for myself and my guest), but for some odd reason she wouldn't make both. She first responded "for who?" then asked me to have my guest pick the second drink (which I have never experienced in all the lounges I've visited throughout the country). Her tone was not only rude but uncalled for. I simply responded by accepting the one drink and returned to my seat to give the news to my guest. We were disappointed in the customer service and unwelcomed attitude by the attending bartender.

The welcoming front desk advised us to find seating in the section behind the elevators, which featured a huge fireplace, a living room-like atmosphere, and huge floor to ceiling windows looking out over the airport. On this side, there was a fridge with some fruit and yogurts, plus a drink counter with sparkling water taps, teas, and coffees. On the other side is the bar, bathrooms, more seating areas but mostly tables and chairs, and the food. So we walked back and forth from each section, but preferred that to being in the busier part. We found 4 comfortable chairs facing each other and ended up at times sitting on the rug in between playing board games. The bathrooms were pristine, and my kids loved the cherry blossom display next to the door. The food was ample, with fixing to make sandwiches with, plus soups, and lots of other items to snack on, plus granola and nut mixes, brownies and cake bites, and a coke machine that had so many options!
