    Cuban
    Alondra G.

    The decor and music create a fun, lively vibe that sets the tone right away. The Cuban sandwich could've used a bit more sauce, but the pina colada was delicious and definitely a highlight. The plantain appetizer was the standout of the meal--fun to share and full of flavor. Everything came out quickly, and I appreciated the flexibility of ordering either at the bar or right from the table using the QR code.

    Such a great spot. In this expanded location, the Colada Shop has something for every part of the day. Pastries and coladas for breakfast, Cuban sandwiches for lunch and some adult beverages and large plates for dinner. Having been here multiple times, I can tell you that there isn't a bad item on the menu. From their extensive drink menu to all their food items, they are well crafted and true to form. To be clear, this is a fast casual restaurant model where you order from a kiosk and then get a number for your food to be delivered to your table. While it suits all parts of the day, it is definitely a casual environment and the service is prompt, and often not that personal. I love their bowls and their Cubans. All of their smoothie offerings are great and please don't skip the coffee or adult beverages such as the pina colada.

    Went for HH with friends and ordered a few things to share. Highly recommend the Platanachos. Tried the Guava Lime and Passionfruit Orange spritzes and both were okay but strong. The Chicken Tostones and Goat Cheese Croquetas were not my favorite.

    I dropped in for a smoothie as a nice little sweet treat - and was a little shocked that it was almost $15. I was excited to try In The Tropics because it has Mamey, one of my FAVORITE fruits but was disappointed that the flavor didn't really come through. The smoothie was refreshing and by no means overly sweet but the texture wasn't my favorite. Service was quick - so it's definitely a place you can drop into without a reservation.

    CUBAN SANDWICH with side salad
    Jeff B.

    Enjoyed a nice lunch with friends this afternoon at this comfortable, well lit shop. The outside seating area was great to have today on a beautiful pre-autumn DC afternoon. For ordering, you can order either from a counter person or a kiosk (one located just outside the front door and one at the main counter). Ordering was easy. When I ordered, I picked up a numbered plastic tent, put the number into the order, and my food was delivered to the table by Staff. Easy peasy. I got the Cuban sandwich ($14.35) and a side salad ($3). The sandwich was meaty and flavorful, although parts of the shredded pork were a bit dry. I might try the veggie Cuban sandwich next time with portobello mushroom instead of pork. Overall, a good and filling sandwich. The salad had lettuce, tomato and cucumber with a tasty Italian dressing. I really liked the salad. My friends enjoyed their food also. We spent a bunch of time there and were not rushed. There is a water dispenser and glasses available for eating in and a variety of soft drinks and coffees, cocktails and smoothies.

    The service is always great! The food is good, but not great. Do not expect to be wowed. They don't have a large variety of alcoholic beverages. I come here often for lunch because it is conveniently located and they have decent prices. The bathrooms are well-kept Overall, solid place and I love to support this business.

    The sandwiches were absolutely delicious. Not slathered with tons of sauce just enough so you get the spices mixed in with the meat. We both had a Cuban sandwich and a guava pork sandwich and switch so we could try one of each. Both were delicious. Then for dessert we had the brownie Turnover and the guava cream cheese pastry, which were also not overly powerful sweet, but just sweet enough. Price point was fantastic.

    My cousin and I met up with my Uncle for a drink before heading to get facials over at Silver Mirror Facial Bar. We didn't have anything to eat, just sat at the bar and had drinks. The waiter was superb and great at making our drinks. I had ONE drink and was filling the buzz. Definitely have to try out the food the next time we visit DC -- definitely have the waiter make you a Bacardi Black and Coke (with like three shots of Bacardi!!)

    LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. I love that the business is on InKind. It is honestly the reason why I go so often. I get their cortadito half sweet, dulce de leche brownie, maybe an empanadas for two, guava and cheese pastry. I also love their ropa vieja sliders. You can't go wrong honestly!

    After so many times passing through this place I finally decided to enter and try according to Google one of the best coffees in DC! my friend and I, We ordered "cafe con leche" Miami style, definitely a mix between sweetness and the intense flavor of coffee, The place despite being Sunday there was not much crowd as it usually happens, the vibes of the store are definitely very Caribbean, the patio was our favorite place. Thanks to Luna and Sebastian for such a pleasant experience, 100% recommended.

    Cuban Sandwich. I would recommend! Very savory and was still fresh/not soggy after a 15 minute walk home. COLADA SHOP CUBAN

    I placed a to-go order using the digital kiosk. The checkout process was super simple and the cashier still checked in with me to make sure I didn't need anything else. The shop is decorated very cute inside with a large wall mural and there is free water right inside the front door. In terms of food - I overall was happy with what I got. I purchased the cuban sandwich and a side of yuca fries. They are both tasty BUT the one negative thing I need to note (and why I deducted one star in my rating) is that I paid $6 for the yuca fries and the order only came with five total fries... so I was disappointed with the portion I received for that price. Granted yuca fries are a lot larger than most normal potato fries, I would think expecting at least $1/fry is more than reasonable.

    While not in Miami this Cuban coffee gets close. Also good ambiance and a great coffee shop. Next time I'll try to empanadas. They also serve sandwiches and happy hour drinks.

    This is a good Cuban coffee shop in DuPont Circle. All of the coffee and food items on the menu are Cuban influenced. You can also order alcoholic beverages here and there is a happy hour. The customer service is OK. The restaurant lobby and dining room are conventional and trendy, adhering to DuPont Circle's reputation for mid-scale and upscale restaurant decor.

    Walking up to Press Club Bar of Record, we were immediately drawn in--it had that cool, funky,…read moreeffortlessly hip vibe that makes you feel like you've stumbled onto something special. As tourists, we had no idea how intimate the space was (or that reservations are recommended even just for drinks!), so we felt incredibly lucky when a staff member took pity on us and offered an outside table. I wish I could remember his name--he truly made the experience. He brought so much energy and personality, setting the tone for the whole night. After scanning the QR codes on the "records" for the menu, we each ordered something different. I went with the Take Me Out--a mix of mezcal, pineapple, amontillado, tamarind, mango, coconut, and lime--and I was not prepared for just how delicious it would be. It was layered, refreshing, and completely memorable. The presentation and attention to detail were next-level. My drink arrived with a perfectly round ice sphere and was paired with a sugared, vegan mango gummy that added a fun, unexpected twist. Our host also elevated several of the drinks tableside--adding custom tinctures and even creating a smiley face with drops of oil and basil in one cocktail nearby. It felt thoughtful, creative, and a little theatrical in the best way. We spent the evening outside, enjoying incredible drinks, easy conversation, and a warm night under the stars. It was one of those experiences that just sticks with you. I'm already looking forward to my next trip to D.C.--and Press Club Bar of Record will absolutely be on my list to revisit. Highly recommend, and maybe make a reservation!

It's a sexy basement vinyl den with additional outdoor seating, 10/10 unique cocktails, and incredible Japanese inspired small plates. Between two visits, we have tried 6 different drinks. They are named after songs and listed on the back of a fake vinyl cover. Each costs around $20, but with the mandatory tip and tax, it comes to around $26-28 per drink. The since I left you, though, is worth every penny. It is similar to an old fashioned but a little sweeter, with bourbon (makers mark), and while the menu says it also has miso, blackberry, cardamom, and cacao, I wouldn't say those flavors come through. But it is one of the best cocktails being served in DC right now. It is so good. They serve it with a cardamom tuile that is delicious as well. There is a lot of variety on here, but my number 2 is the Roses, a bright red gin based drink with a hint of fruitiness and a spicy kick in the back end. If you want something a little sweeter, the Takeover is a cognac based drink with coffee notes served with a mini donut. The food is exceptionally well seasoned and so flavorful. The fried chicken cannot be missed, and I love that you can get it in half or full size portions. The shrimp tempura might be even better. You get four large pieces that are super crisp and have a little orange sauce on them. Amazing. Our second visit we tried their chips and dip, and these potato chips alone are worth a visit. Large, crunchy, and served with a tasty ranch dip. I think 2 dishes is good for two people to fill you up, but add a third if hungry. The place is quite expensive, but they are worth it. For a date night, they are a great choice. Four drinks and three dishes shared between two people came to around $195, but as of this review, they are offering a $30 off deal if you pay through the app In Kind. Bonus points because the first time we came, they seated us maybe 5 minutes after our reservation time, and they gave us a free glass of cava. Top notch customer service right there

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.
