    Super friendly store!
    Lori R.

    We were just walking by over the Christmas holiday, when we were invited in so warmly that we, well, went in. There were two Gentlemen working (Father & Son perhaps?) who asked our preferences and offered up samples. Now that's our kind of wine & spirit store! Not to mention they were having a big Grand Opening Sale. Husband found a new bourbon he likes and it was $10 off. When I admired the little glass that held my taste of red wine, he insisted on giving me the glass! Whether you live nearby or are staying in a nearby hotel, check out this gem of an alcohol store!

    Great location! Blocks away from the Capital One Arena. The staff are amazing! Very helpful and super nice. Great deals! The whiskey deal they had was four bottles of whiskey for $100. Great selection of whiskey to choose from. I highly recommend to any one in the area. We will certainly come back. And when you check-in, you get a discount coupon so def check-in!

    Wish I can give this place a 0, I arrived at 5:57 pm and was told that they were closed at 6pm and was brush off like I was I fly! Very bad customer service.. I wouldn't recommend this place to a person I hated! Just unbelievable! Told us to go two block down to another liquor store.

    Decent place to stop in and pick up a bottle of wine. Staff is friendly. Prices on some items seem high, however.

    The scotch selection is good too, seems a little pricey but I think that is due to the location in downtown DC.

This is the place to go if you're looking for some quality without breaking the bank. We purchased a few bottles and came away impressed when the clerk wiped the bottles down down, individually wrapped them, and even added a small bit of cardboard to keep the from clanking.

There was a man behind the counter who asked a couple of times if he could help us and we kept saying, "no, thank you were just looking around." After perusing the shop for about 10 minutes reading labels and talking about what we might buy the man asked us again. I finally said, "we're not looking for anything in particular, just thinking about what we want to have at home to make drinks". His reply? "Well I have a lot of duties that I can't do while you're here. You've been here for 10 minutes and I have things to do." Not only were his words rude, but his tone was dismissive and annoyed. I am seriously disappointed, especially since there were things that we were actually thinking of getting. I get that you're 25 minutes away from closing time on a Friday, but as someone who has worked in customer service, I would have been fired for saying something like that.

I was…read morelooking for this certain tequila that came out a few months ago and it did not feature any locations that were close to me but on my road trip, I saw this tequila was available on our route. The parking was a bit difficult because the only parking I believe that was available was on the street. Luckily we did find a space we could pull up to so I could run into the store for about 5 minutes to pick up what I was looking for and grab another goodie. The tequila was right at the checkout counter so check out was a breeze. This place definitely saved the day and I was able to try the tequila that I had been longing to taste for a few months or so. And it was just OK BTW. But I love the bottle. Definitely check them out. They may have some spirits that you don't even know about...hidden gems indeed. But if I'm in the area I would definitely check this store out over and over. Have fun and enjoy life :)

    You'll find this very spacious and well appointed liquor store directly next-door to a Subway shop…read more and a small restaurant called Al tiramisu. Once inside it really hits you just how extensive the selection is. They really invested heavily into the inventory on the shelves here. And just when you think you've seen it all, there's a whole other room downstairs filled with an extensive wine selection. You can pick up large format bottles of high-end wine in wooden boxes or check out the temperature controlled wine cellar. You can also pick up a wedge of cheese and something out of the cigar humidor. They do have a decent craft beer selection, just not as extensive, unless of course you check out the goose Island bourbon barrel beers of which they have many vintages of. As you can see in the photos/video below, this is definitely a destination spot.
