And quite frankly I was a bit skeptical at first, just because it's a hit or miss when eating at hotel restaurants. However the place was very nice and super clean. Service was exceptional and the food was amazing. Everyone was delighted with their dishes. My husband had the chicken and waffles and he said it's been the best he's had in years. I went with the Brisket Hash & it was tasty with a good amount of brisket. Good portions and excellent service. When visiting this area I would definitely recommend.

Not the best experience for brunch.

The food was average at best when it came out. Super disappointed. We came here for my mom's 5 year beating cancer anniversary and it wasn't much of a celebration.

Deliciousness - 3/5 Happiness -5/5…read more This place is for drinkers as it has no food, so if you want to lift an ale (and go out for dinner before or after, or bring food in with you), this is the place to be. They have a large beer, wine, and liquor list (although not nearly as many English beers as I expected from a place called Crown & Crow). I won't deny that I wasn't a fan of either of the mixed cocktails I had, with both (including strangely a smoky drink) being too sweet. But the beer was expertly poured and the wine was a very generous serving. The prices are also more than reasonable, which is great for a DC bar. But what really elevates this place is the service. By late night, the place was jam packed. But each and every bartender was extremely friendly and they expertly worked the crowd, getting drinks served quickly (which too few places manage to do) and swiftly clearing off tables of dirty glasses. I also greatly appreciated the free goldfish that they happily dole out to the patrons. The staff made this a really good time.

We came in on a busy Saturday early-evening for drinks before dinner. The back room was…read more"reserved", but we were told to sit back there, given the size of our group and we sat nowhere near the party that was in there. The bartender in that area was friendly, but unhelpful, directing us to use the front room's bartender, even though she wasn't busy when we approached and asked for a couple of drinks. The bartender in the main room was great, he was very friendly and once he started a tab for me he said I could use the other bar too, I guess he wasn't aware the bartender at that other bar already told me she wouldn't help me. Regardless, the drinks we had were decent. For small bites, they only had gold fish crackers, I wish they would have had more to nosh on while drinking. Overall, not a bad visit.

The atmosphere is a chic whiskey/cigar bar esthetic (not actually for cigars)... warm tones of yellow and leather with brown leather throughout! The food is absolutely immaculate in presentation and taste... every ingredient is perfectly combined with intentionality and nuance. The fries are crisp... the sourdough bread freshly baked and cut to the perfect width. The coleslaw might be the best coleslaw I've ever had... not too much mayo or overly sweet... perfect crunch. The Birria grilled cheese is intensely rich and the pickled red onions are essential... I wish there was far more on the plate. It's the essential acidity that will break up the richness. Take a few with each bite. The fish is fried to absolute perfection... light and crisp and the batter was not too heavy... absolutely golden in color and light and crisp on every bite. You'll need to spritz the lemon for the acidity. My wife loved the fried pickles (frickles?!)... and we will definitely be back to try the other items on the menu!

We started with the fried chicken bao, which was saucy, crunchy, and paired perfectly with the soft, fluffy bao bun. My husband ordered the vegetable spring rolls, which he thought were just okay. Next, I had the Dynamic sushi roll, and it was excellent. The shrimp tempura inside was warm with the perfect crunch, which paired beautifully with the spicy tuna on top. For my entrée, I ordered the Singapore rice noodles, and they were by far the best I've ever had full of flavor and perfectly cooked. My husband had the fried rice with vegetables, and he really enjoyed his dish as well. We also tried the lychee cocktails, which were smooth and delicious, though a bit on the pricey side for my liking. As for the service, I have no complaints. Our food came out promptly, and our drinks were consistently refilled. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would definitely come back to try more dishes on the menu.

My friend and I were looking for a quick bar to slip into around 10-11 PM and stumbled across this…read morespot. It's not too far from the waterfront, so it made for a nice walk after gelato. At first, you'll see what looks like just a pizza shop -- but if you head in and either use the side door or walk through and climb a set of stairs, you'll find the speakeasy upstairs. Very cool vibe: dark, cozy, and date-night ready. Drinks: 4/5 I ordered their take on an Old Fashioned, and it was definitely the highlight of the night but sweeter than I would have liked. They served it over a stamped solid block of ice (a small detail I ). My friend was abstaining from alcohol that night and asked for a non-alcoholic cocktail. To our surprise, they didn't just hand her a lemonade like most places -- they actually made her a crafted virgin drink, which she loved. Food: 3/5 We ordered fries and a slice of pepperoni pizza. The fries turned out to be waffle fries (not mentioned on the menu) and were overly crispy, so not really our favorite. The pizza was fine -- clearly sourced from the shop downstairs -- but it leaned oily and didn't really wow us. Service: 5/5 Pretty standard -- nothing over the top, but not neglectful either. Drinks came out reasonably fast, food followed, and we were checked on enough without it feeling pushy. Vibes: 4/5 The speakeasy itself is definitely the selling point. Dark, intimate, and stylish -- you feel like you've found a little hidden spot. All in all, the cocktails are the reason to come, especially if you're into whiskey. The food was forgettable, but it's convenient that you can order pizza upstairs. We spent about $30-40 for drinks and snacks, which isn't shocking for Old Town. Would I go back? Maybe if I was already in the area, but for a dedicated whiskey night, I'd probably head somewhere else.
