    Nessa R.

    So.... Business Meetings in a city. Typically I like to take clients to a Gentleman's club over a bar. Why? Well, beautiful women and drinks never seem to fail. If a woman can withstand boobs she probably is an think outside the box type of woman. Well that's my take! So I'm here on a Monday. Wow... I'm not impressed. I'm walking up the steps and the two men leaving are talking about this isn't Stadium. Shoot. I'm reluctant to walk in but I'm here. You walk up and there it is the girl taking your $20 to come in. Now I read that it came with a drink however we were not offered that. Okay, so drinks, they are decent. I'm not a woman basher and I will not talk down about the females however it was a Monday. The bartender from Texas was gorgeous and I asked her if she gets the compliment of being the cutest woman in there. She smiled. I had money to spend. My partner sees a girl that finally catches the eye. I walk over and ask her to come over. She tells me dances are $100. I've never been there so I agree. After thinking about it, I ask the bartender to confirm. Nope that was for a dance at the top. Hmmmm. Well, now I feel like I'm being Hustled. No tips for you. We had money to spend and to give away. No dancers came up to us after their sets. The ones that walked by, I made sure to tip: they aren't there for nothing. Had all the girls demanded attention they each would have had tips from us for their entertainment. Lots of attire of the women were very different. I would have thought they would have been dressed elegantly given that this club is "up scale". Not so: the attire down grades this establishment. Wonder if it will last. Would I come back? Probably not. $20 not worth it in my opinion. Will definitely look for other venues to frequent. Michelle you were awesome! Back to reply to "Owner", 1. The picture was taken as soon as you walk in because your super nice security in the front said, "no pictures". After looking at other reviews with inside pictures and videos, it's evident that maybe they were allowed to take video and pictures to help with Yelp reviews. Now that is definitely interesting. 2. You mention that your girls don't hustle customers but one definitely tried to hustle me until the bartender confirmed a dance is only $20. Your dancer told me $100. 3. As far as your dancers not demanding tips, it's not per se a demand, it is simply them being hospitable. As a customer, I'm walking in your house, as you would with any guest (simple manners) I would think all the girls would be friendly and come and say hi, introduce themselves and market themselves. It's a gentleman's club. It's already nerve wracking coming in, the girls should be the ones to break ice and start a convo. 4. As far as me mentioning the other club, I gave my true experience and what the two men stated as they walked out. I have no bias and Yelp for other Yelpers to get a clear idea and experience.

    Can I get a private dance with my wife?

    Good Q! Absolutely! Come on over :)

    Hi what's the difference in table dance vs private dance?

    Hello, private dances are one on one in the champagne room. Table dances are on the main club floor on an elevated table.

    What ethnicity are the dancers? Is there a mixture or mostly caucasian?

    We are proud to have a very diverse selection of entertainers!

    Do you hire beginner level entertaininers who are over 18?

    Yes. We have a book of amazing entertainers who help each other learn and get better! So apply online and let the Manager know that you are new to the dancing world. Thank you

    Is there a dress code?

    smart casual- no baggy clothes, hats (unless they say Cloakroom on it), sandals, athletic wear...the usual.

    What type of music is played at this establishment?

    A lot of rock, hip hop and and you can ask the dj to play music you want the performers to dance to.

    Is this club 18+?

    Guests must be 21 and over. Entertainers, servers and front desk hostesses can be 18 years old.

    How much are the dances?

    They start at $60 and go up from there.

    Do you have a cigar lounge?

    No specific cigar lounge, but you can smoke cigars on our rooftop. We also have hand rolled cigars for purchase.

    Is this fully nude?

    Yes. Come by!

    Is this a fully nude club?

    yes

    What's the cover and lap dances?

    Cover is $20 but if you come in before 9pm, you get a free cocktail. Table dances are $40 for 2 songs and private rooms start at $60 for 2 songs and then go up from there.

    Is it a bar/club vibe where you can walk around? Or are you seated at a table the whole time?

    Hi! You can move around the venue. We do not confine you to any seating unless you request reserved seating. Thank you and hope to see you soon!

    Thinking about coming here for my bday, what does VIP get you?

    Hi Rico, We have many VIP options. Please contact Cristina@CloakroomDC.com for more information. We would love to host you!

    Whats the age restriction?

    Hi, We require guests to be 21 years and older.

    Is food sold here?

    Hi, Food is not sold here yet on a regular basis. You are more than welcome to order delivery to your table for now. Often times, we have guests go have dinner at one of the great restaurants nearby, and then they walk over to Cloakroom.

    Can you get lap dances?

    We have private rooms that guests can enjoy! Come by and experience the beauty and fun for yourself!!

    Is this club full nude? Can you touch the entertainers?

    Club is fully nude. Woohooo! Come and experience the fun for yourself. You will not be disappointed

    How about dances, what do they charge?

    dances start at $40 and go up from there

    Is there a cover?

    A drink in DC costs around $13-$17 average. So cover is practically nothing.

For $45 per person, the all-you-can-eat experience feels like a really solid deal considering how many protein options and side dishes you get. They start you off with a variety of banchan (side dishes), including a salad with this super tasty dressing that had the perfect little spicy kick. For the BBQ, we kicked things off with the spicy bulgogi and butter garlic shrimp, while the others tried the pork belly (I don't eat pork). Later we ordered the steak, spicy brisket, and grilled squid, which were all delicious. The spicy brisket especially was a standout for me. The guys also ordered two rounds of fried dumplings that looked amazing, but since they contain pork, I had to sit those out. I'd love to see Chadol add a veggie dumpling option to the menu! As for the sides, the kimchi and cold glass noodles were both hits at our table, and of course we all added white rice. The "mashed potatoes" though? Definitely more like potato salad and unfortunately very bland. On the other hand, the cheese corn costs extra but is 1000% worth adding. For drinks, the guys enjoyed the Woody Old Fashioned while I had a mezcal margarita-style cocktail that was smoky and refreshing. We also ordered one of the chicken options but never received it and eventually just gave up on it. One of the coolest parts of the experience is the ordering system. Most meats are ordered directly from a machine at your table, and the food comes out quickly on this conveyor belt-style setup which was honestly so fun. Drinks and side dishes are ordered through the servers. The atmosphere was lively and energetic without feeling overwhelming. The restaurant is actually much larger inside than I expected, with a modern setup that works well for smaller groups. That said, I didn't really notice tables for larger parties, so I'm not sure how they accommodate groups bigger than 6 people. Service started off a little rough because our server wasn't very attentive, but after I called it out, he definitely stepped it up and things improved. Overall, Chadol was a really good experience and absolutely worth the price. The 1.5-hour seating limit makes sense too, both to keep things moving and give others a chance to enjoy the experience. I'd definitely go back!

    I ate here around a year ago and reviewed them on google. The food is not good, service is slow,…read morefor some reason you can't order certain things with the tablet, and it's really easy to miss the little automated train thing that brings out your food.

The food at this location was great. The red snapper with the rice and tomatoes was very flavorful. The red snapper could have been cooked a little harder. However, other than that it was great.

However, the service from the bartender as great. He was very knowledgeable on the drinks and the food. Unfortunately, I did not get a picture of the drinks. But I ordered a smoked margarita which had a great taste. The ambiance was wonderful. It was very aesthetically please. From the flowers on the ceiling to the rooftop overlooking the Capitol it was great. The roof top provided a chill vibe with low music.

The views alone make you want to stay all night, especially as the sun starts to set over the city. We also got to enjoy live music from the band, which made the atmosphere feel even more fun and elevated. It was the perfect mix of great energy, good music, and a beautiful rooftop setting. For drinks, we tried the Blushing Orchard Martini, Capitol Blossom Fizz, and the Lavender Ginger Bloom -- all refreshing and well-crafted. For food, we ordered the East Coast Oysters on the Half Shell, Beef Sliders, and Mediterranean Tacos. Everything came out fresh and flavorful.

I think they take reservations but we were able to grab a bar spot. Are drinks pricey? What do you think? It's a cocktail bar in DC. The drinks we tried were pretty tasty, even the mezcal one which I thought was a refreshing take. The wall shows some of the drinks on the menu and the ingredients/glass it comes in which I thought was a nice touch. Bartenders were friendly but not too chatty as they were super busy but you never waited long for a drink. The bourbon drink with the whipped honey was our favorite but the gin drink that was pink was also fantastic. For food I did try the buffalo chicken dip, pretty large and tasty (not too spicy) and loved the super crisp celery and the fritos.

They don't take revelations and the place fills up fast. It's a very cute spot and feels so comfortable and fun. Our bartender was Gaylan and he was great--had great reccs, laughed with us a bit, all around great guy. The 'let me just say this' was so soo good! It tasted like a rainbow--just bright and with a really delicious after taste. I should have stopped at the rose but after my trying my friend's, i had to have one! We initially came for happy hour, but moved to the cocktail menu. The hh was a bit limited, but the drinks were priced overall pretty reasonably for the area. My one complaint is the wine glasses were so teeny. Overall though, I would recommend this bar. Bonus: cheese balls when you sit down! I believe there is also a limited food menu (think nachos) for the after work or late night crowd.

I know reservations are probably highly recommended, but we were fortunate to walk in at just the right moment and snag a seat. The seating is cozy and inviting, perfect for a relaxed evening. The atmosphere is just my style, an elegant, dark, grown and sexy vibe that really sets the mood. The decor is striking, with thoughtful touches that create an inviting space to unwind.

Jordan and the team were incredibly knowledgeable about both the drinks and food menu, offering suggestions that perfectly matched our tastes.
