Super cute spot! We had reservations for 5:00 p.m. and were surprised to find the bar already packed and most of the tables full. I guess everyone was escaping DC's 104-degree heat. My friend and I ordered from the happy hour menu and shared a few items. We had a couple of Hugo Spritzes, sliders, fries, and wings, and everything was delicious. The service was friendly, and our waitress was attentive without being overbearing. The atmosphere was lively, and people kept coming in throughout the evening, which says a lot. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'll definitely be back. read more

Over a year later, I finally returned for food this time and left impressed. Meeting a friend for lunch, we both ordered the Smash Burger. It's packed with flavor and the edges are crispy, which made it even more delicious. For my side, I subbed out fries for their Caesar salad, which was also great. It comes loaded with aged parmesan on top. Overall, it was a great lunch experience. One thing to note is that the prices are high. It's D.C. so that's normal, but if you're from out of town, it may feel like sticker shock. read more

Overall Rating: 2/5 Stars Fell victim to the Instagram hype reel and stopped by Lobby Bar specifically for their viral hot dog, only to find out it doesn't clock in until the 4:00 PM evening shift. Tough start, but we pivoted to brunch--where we quickly learned their social media manager deserves a massive raise, because the kitchen and floor staff are playing an entirely different game. The Breakdown: Steak & Eggs: Billed as "Wagyu," which feels like a wildly generous label for what showed up. Ordered rare, arrived proudly at least medium well. The scrambled eggs were decent, but when the side salad and dressing are unironically the absolute highlight of your steak plate... Mother of Dragons: Marketed with a house pineapple-habanero-lime mix, but delivered approximately zero heat. The "dragon" was apparently just a lonely, decorative micro-pepper chilling on top of an iceberg-sized ice cube that took up 95% of the short tumbler. Pure aesthetics, zero kick. The Mimosa: Fresh juice, sure, but nobody warned us it doubled as a smoothie with all that pulp. Worse, the juice-to-champagne ratio leaned way too heavy on the mixer. The Coffee: Stale, burnt diner energy. Dropped off without a spoon or a backward glance to see if we needed anything else. Service & Vibe: It was a ghost town for a holiday weekend, yet somehow service felt like an uphill marathon. Slow pacing, missed check-ins, and zero attention to detail. When the dining room is that empty, you'd expect the staff to at least notice your steak didn't match the order. Lobby Bar is great at looking photogenic on your feed, but if you're expecting the food and hospitality to match the online theatrics, prepare to be humbled. Save your camera roll and skip the brunch. read more

Of course I came for girl dinner. It was a nice, cool evening, so we ate outside. We opted for the full girl dinner with caviar, and it was worth it. We had a lot left over, but that was expected. The drinks were great, and the girl dinner comes with two martinis. I was able to swap mine out since I don't drink martinis, so I had wine. The service was excellent, and we had an overall fantastic time. We stayed for over three hours, so that says it all. A must! read more

I had the most fantastic birthday dinner on Saturday, 8/29! Raul was such an amazing server, he tended to our every need and catered to our giddy party. Our Girl Dinner platters were absolutely phenomenal. The chicken nuggets were the perfect amount of crispy and the caviar was delectable! The fries the perfect amount of crisp and truffle, the caesar tossed with the perfect amount of dressing, and all the parmesan we could dream of to top both!! We can't wait to return to have it again at brunch. I can't thank Raul enough for that hospitality and the bubbly to finish off our dinner. My birthday dinner was perfect. read more

Super cute inside! I want to come back and try more food. I tried a bite of the steak frites and both the steak and truffle fries were amazing. I also had the spicy rigatoni with chicken. The rigatoni was excellent and had a nice kick but wasn't too hot. This place was packed on a Thursday and I really like their half size booths so cute! read more

My wife took me to Lobby Bar for my first Father's Day. We really enjoyed the concept of an upscale bar. We had the Caesar salad and lobby wing board to start. The Caesar was great and the wings were fantastic. Loved having all the sauces to choose from. For the entree, I had the double smash burger and my wife had the glizzy. My smash burger was banging. The glizzy was good but my wife said she could taste the difference between the glizzy and an average hot dog. I definitely did. We had a great host and enjoyed our experience. Look forward to going back. read more

The best dirty martini I've had in a while! The oysters could have been shucked better, there were a fair amount of shell shards throughout, but otherwise the food was good and the service was super quick and attentive. It is however incredibly loud, every surface is hard and reflecting sound so it can be difficult to hear. read more

Lobby Bar is a delightful addition to the Eastern Market district in DC. With so many options to choose from it's hard to stand out when it comes to food and cocktails but Lobby Bar definitely does. They do something in which I love and that's making simple food even better. Traditional items like Pigs in a blanket are elevated using wagyu hotdogs, homemade chicken nuggets are elevated with caviar, and cauliflower is taken to the next level with a delicious buffalo/truffle sauce. The restaurant is small but packed with personality. It's sleek, cozy and definitely gives you a welcoming feeling. The staff is nice, but was very busy during my visit. There were only two people working the front of the house, and the restaurant was busy so interactions with the staff were quick but still friendly. I don't care what you read on other reviews but the cocktail program is second to none. Absolutely amazing. I tried a few different ones and they all nailed it. The Gracias Poncho might be my new favorite drink in DC. Well worth the trip, truly awesome spot. You will definitely find me here again. read more

Lobby Bar is an intimate American bistro style restaurant in Capitol Hill right across from Eastern Market. It's fairly small so I would recommend making a reservation. They have daily HH from 3-6 to with drink and food specials. I honestly really surprised and how much I enjoyed the food. I tried the chicken nuggets when caviar, Caesar salad and lamb chops with mashed potatoes and all were great filling options. read more

Overall fun bar, I think it's cozy and has fun food to eat while you have a drink. I think it's a good spot to hang with friends or go on a chill date night. My boyfriend and I had a reservation but got there a bit early, was still seated and it wasn't too busy at the time (5pm on a Saturday!). Service was good and quick too. We got the wagyu glizzy, definitely gimmicky but we knew that, it was still fun! The steak frites were okay, but I actually really loved the spicy rigatoni! Like elevated American comfort food. The drinks were yummy too, which matters more to me if I'm going to a bar! read more

Lobby bar is definitely in my new top five when it comes to happy hour. She's not too far from capital hill so you can feel the influence, but not too much where she's stuffy. After all, how can you be when you advertise girl dinner to the mainstream public. Although, they've changed their orignal girl dinner menu...sigh... she's still a great place for a stiff cocktail and good vibes. The dirty Cesar: check, the lean chicken nuggets: check, the Parmesan fires: triple check! FYI: The bar feels up fast so make a resy. read more

Cocktails and service were the star of the show for me. The "pine and dandy" was EXCELLENT and I even got to meet Joe who created the cocktail for the menu. Great service! Chill but lively. You can have a conversation without shouting. The menu is like elevated sports bar with bar classics and seafood. Cesar salad and fries were good - I'd get those again. But the nuggets were a bit dry. Would not get again. My friends did enjoy their burger and the pasta so maybe that'll be my next order! read more

Came here for lunch today. It was my first time popping in here and I am happy. I tried something new. I got a cute window seat when you first come inside so you could people watch as you eat. I started with a tequila drink, and a bump of caviar, deviled eggs with crab meat. I took the bump of caviar and put it on top of the deviled egg and it was perfect. We ordered Brussels sprouts to share which were sweet flavorful and good. We followed up with a Caesar salad which came with so much shaved Parmesan, but it was really good and a slab of salmon medium well I am not a salmon skin girly, but the skin was so crispy and flavorful. Then we ordered the wings which came with three sauces and blue cheese or ranch. I definitely will come back and try some of the other amazing items they have on their menu. read more

Tucked in the heart of Capitol Hill, right across from the historic Eastern Market, Lobby Bar is a neighborhood gem. It strikes a balance of elevated yet inviting. The space is thoughtfully designed, with bar seating, intimate booths, a large communal table, and a patio. We liked the light shrimp cocktail to start. For mains, the steak frites was a standout. The double smash burger was also delicious, a great choice for anyone looking for something heartier. To finish, the cookie skillet was warm, gooey, and comforting. Lobby Bar is a good recommendation for anyone in the Capitol Hill area, whether you're meeting friends for cocktails or grabbing a casual dinner. read more

Great drinks. Opted to "The Last Word" which I highly recommend. It was not on the menu. We had chicken nuggets with caviar and the wagyu pigs in a blanket. The apps were great. The drinks were better. I recommend reservations and definitely will be back. read more

I already feel a bit belated with this review because I came this summer for the Adult Happy Meal and IT. WAS. AWESOME! I arrived on a Friday evening and the place was packed. Like line out the door energy. Thankfully, I had snagged a reservation in advance and was seated right away in one of the cozy front booths. (At the time, they offered happy hour at any seat but not sure if that's still the case.) The Happy Meal itself? Legendary. For $31 during happy hour (3-6 PM), you got your choice of a burger, chicken sandwich, or the infamous McLobby nuggets, fries, and a glass of Veuve Clicquot. Yes, Veuve! Practically everyone around me had one as it was clearly the move. The vibe was buzzy but cozy, and I instantly knew I'd stumbled onto a Capitol Hill gem. I've only been once for the Happy Meal, but I can't wait to return for the girl dinner and hopefully catch the Happy Meal if it returns. (Ugh I love a gimmick or theme!) This place seems to be worth the hype and is easily becoming a staple in the neighborhood. read more

I had really looked forward to finally trying Lobby Bar! From the moment I read a press release about it's opening it was on my radar as a place nearby to try. The menu looked fun, trendy and when I would walk by felt like it had high potential to be a go-to neighborhood spot. Unfortunately, it missed the mark in a number of areas. My first few moments walking in were incredible, more so because the hostess and another waitress with the most amazing energy greeted me while I was waiting for a friend. However, once seated things really went downhill from there. The waitress that seemed so lovely was not the waitress we ended up with. Oddly enough, we also thought it was kind of strange that there was a different waiter or waitress assigned for the only three tables that are outside. During our two hours there, we would see the waitress and waiter for the two other tables coming in an out non-stop, checking in on their tables. Out waitress would only come out AFTER we had to go in to ask for plates or to-go boxes. Yes, it was hot and she was serving people inside as well. But she would literally only check-in to ask us if we needed anything only after bringing out what we had to go in to ask for. She was also not helpful at all with ordering. I initially wanted to try the nuggets with caviar. So I decided to order that, some truffle fries and two dirty martinis. After I placed the order, I noticed that they actually had an $80 girl dinner special that literally was almost the same order except that it came with caesar salad as well, but she didn't even make mention or make the suggestion. So once I noticed it, I went back in and made the order. She then asked if I still wanted the additional order of nuggets. It was my understanding that the platter would have the same amount as the side (6 nuggets) so I kept the additional order in, only to find out there were at least a dozen nuggets on that platter. I mean there was so much food that I wish she had just given us a heads up, or perhaps made suggestions. Additionally, the batter for the chicken nuggets was extremely salty. They were so salty they were hard to enjoy. Since I had to take so many home, I actually took the breading off of them later so that I could enjoy them more. I would also make note that the $27 add on for caviar is more so for the visual. Some of the nuggets literally had 3-5 little eggs on top. The cocktails were good though! I think if it was just the food, I probably would have give this place 3 stars. But the poor service and $200 bill for bar food you could get anywhere else really made it a lackluster experience. We would have actually stayed longer and ordered another round , but we were so turned off that we packed it up and walked down to Duck and Peach where we able to grab another drink and enjoy good service. Overall, I love the fun trends that they incorporate onto their menu but just be mindful of the hype. If service improves though, I might return. read more

We made our reservation at Lobby Bar with one mission: to try the legendary "adult happy meal" ... only to find out it's no longer on the menu . RIP to that dream. But silver lining -- the food we did order was chef's kiss. We kicked things off with wings and oysters (surf and turf, baby). Then came the main event: chicken nuggets topped with caviar (childhood fave, but make it $$$ ), a crisp Caesar salad , a juicy smash burger , and truffle Parmesan fries . Basic American classics, but done really well. Drinks? Started happy hour with a Hugo Spritz , then switched to the Gracias Poncho -- super refreshing. Wish the cocktails were a tad bigger for the price though . Our server was sweet, but... a little quirky. He never made eye contact with the one guy at our table, just addressed the three women . Not rude, just... interesting. Heads up: the space is teeny-tiny and gets packed, so snag a reservation . We also eyed the "girl dinner," but it comes with a dirty martini (hard pass ) and you can't sub the drink for something else. Huge bummer -- hopefully they rethink that. Overall: come for elevated comfort food, stay for the good vibes, and be prepared to squeeze in next to your neighbors . read more

It absolutely pains me to have to give this restaurant 2 stars - but it's only fair that the number of stars accurately reflects the overall/entire experience that we had at Lobby Bar's Happy Hour. My reservation was for 4:45PM, but unfortunately because of a lane closure on my way to the restaurant - I arrived at 4:55PM. Within the 15 min grace period given to those with reservations. This 15 "hold" on the table is common practice in the DMV - and the confirmation email from Resy states that tables will be held for 15 minutes. When I checked in with the host, I was told that because I was late my table had been given to another group, and I would no longer be able to have HH, as HH is only for guests seated at the bar and in a particular section of the restaurant. And I was seated at a table (opposite the host stand & the entrance) and given the regular menu. So imagine my surprise when I see at least three other guests checked in after me given a HH menu and seated in all the sections of the restaurant (not just the HH seating that I had originally been told). I asked the host for a HH menu because I saw that there were inconsistencies. Immediately the host - Nicole, got extremely short with me, you would have thought that I was hurling abusive superlatives at her the way her demeanour COMPLETELY changed & she "threatened" me with getting the Manger. Of course I welcomed this idea, because she clearly at this stage was being unprofessional and also, I knew I was not asking for anything more than what other patrons had received. The Manager was extremely professional, allowed me to explain the situation & she saw that I was simply asking for the HH menu - and we were given the menu to order from. This clearly VISIBLY annoyed the host (Nicole), and she promptly told her manager she was going to walk out... (yes you read that right - she told her manager she was going to walk out of her shift because we were given the HH menu), and our request was accommodated for what was her mistake. Her Manger asked her to step outside and they had a conversation- I have no clue what was said or not said, but afterwards she came back in, resumed work... BUT continued giving me dirty looks throughout my entire meal. As I mentioned before - our table was directly opposite the host stand and entrance. At the end of the meal, we were asked if we would like to have dessert, we agreed, and lo and behold, WHO obliged to bring the dessert menu to our table but the host - Nicole!!! At this point, over an hour had passed by, but she still came to our table with the menus and a terrible demeanour; for me, nothing short of shockingly rude and passive aggressive. One of the comments she made was, "I know you don't want to talk to me, but here's the dessert menu and I hope your day gets better because clearly it's been terrible!". This was said VERY sarcastically and felt more like a threat than customer service/etiquette. After this encounter/exchange, my friend and I both decided that it was getting progressively uncomfortable; and we decided to ask for the bill instead. Management was extremely professional and offered us a complimentary dessert - which was kind, but at this point we were ready to leave. It's a shame, because overall it was a tasty meal, but after such a hostile and unpleasant interaction this complete ruined our experience. No one should have to be treated like that just for trying to dine out. This kind of unprofessionalism reflects very poorly on the restaurant as a whole. If management cares about their customers, they seriously need to evaluate who they're trusting to be the face of their establishment. As we were leaving Nicole also offered to give us her last name for this review... Yes, her snarky attitude took it that far! Uncomfortable to say the least... Unprofessional to the maximum!!! read more

Saw cool Instagram reels with this restaurant and decided to visit. Really cute spot. Not crazy busy. Nice atmosphere. Lots of 30-40 year olds hanging out. Bar was busy. Tables not so much but the host said they all reserved. Ok ! Service was good. Good was good i really wanted the orange glass with orange vivo clique serving decor but the bartender said it's for happy hour only. I can take a glass for a photo. Ok! Food: shrimp cocktail was ok. Nothing great though. Wings were ovoid size but no seasoning. I think buffalo sauce was a little different from usual. Yellow tail crude was delicious. I think the place a bit too hyped up. Atmosphere is def great. If you in the mood for swanky dc spot def visit read more

Loved the atmosphere, dimly lit not too loud but loud enough so no one else can hear your conversation. Mia was super helpful with providing her recommendations. For an appetizer, I ordered the shrimp cocktail. The shrimp were huge but it wasn't really a fan of the cocktail sauce. The caviar nuggets were AMAZING. Loved the extra seasoning and the honey mustard really sets them off! Ordered the Spicy Rigatoni, I believe the pasta was not cooked all the way. However the flavor of the sauce was great. read more

L is for the way you look at me, O is for the only one I see....I mean we can write a song about this new hot spot on Capitol Hill because it is truly love at first site. Lobby Bar curates a space that provides top notch mixologist level drinks without being pretentious and giving you local homey bar vibes. Not many can do that in DC. Started with the Veuve because I needed to sip it out of that neat glass they provide, followed by the Plenty of Fish in the Sea martini that comes with a bump of caviar. What more can a girl want after a 9 hour work day?! Oh and fries with that please. HIGHLY recommend. Exactly what Capitol Hill needed. read more

Worth the hype! I dined here on a Saturday evening last month. I made the reservation (for a group of 6) for 7:30pm 10 days prior. The majority of the group arrived on time (1 person was early) but we weren't seated for another 20 minutes. There isn't a large lobby area so a couple of us sat in chairs at a smaller table near the door but the hostesses did update us a few times. Once seated our sever (Will, I believe but I know his name started with a W and he was a pleasureee!) got our drinks ordered and gave good recommendations. We ordered a few appetizers across the table as well. To our surprise we were given a free appetizer (tartare) due to our wait! We truly appreciated the gesture. The tartare was new to some of us and it was pretty tasty but the chips were certainly the highlight. Because I wanted to try a lot, I did a split check. We had the Wagyu Pigs in a Blanket, Caesar salad, truffle Parmesan fries, and the McLobby nuggets. EVERYTHING WAS DELICIOUS! The pigs in a blanket were light and cooked well. The Caesar was dressed and cheesed perfectly. The fries amazing. And the nuggets were so bomb, they were spot on (but better) than that of their dupe...which is my favorite chicken nugget (even at my big age). I also tried a bit of someone else's rigatoni and it was delicious (came be ordered w/ or w/o protein). Anddd the Brussels were good. I don't think you could go wrong with anything on the menu or their cocktails. The strawberry fields was *chef's kiss*...I'll be back! read more

Went here a week or so ago and had the best time! It lived up to the hype; it's a very cute and cozy neighborhood bar with great cocktails, killer food, and SUCH a lovely staff! I recommend a reservation, as they are often very busy or grab a seat at the bar! The bartender was lovely to chat with and the drinks were fantastic (all the martinis here are a must try). I tried the Girl Dinner (a platter with a Caesar salad, truffle fries, chicken nuggets which were so amazing, and comes with two martinis for $80) which I couldn't recommend more! It's honestly a great deal as it's a ton of food (perfect for two people) and comes with drinks. I'm excited to go back and try more of their food as the menu looks awesome. Overall, really cute local spot that is for sure worth checking out. read more

I visited Lobby Bar with a friend to try the Girl Dinner. My friend and I were excited to visit after seeing on social media. Lobby Bar is located in a great location, and I enjoyed the vibes of the bar. I was not very impressed with the Girl Dinner. In my opinion the chicken nuggets were just not great. I felt that placing caviar on top of such mediocre chicken nuggets was simply a waste of caviar. I did enjoy the fries that came with the dinner. The nuggets were a large portion size; I guess that could be considered a positive. Overall the girl dinner just seemed too gimmicky and didn't live up to the hype. We ordered a few cocktails which I enjoyed. It was a busy night, but the service was attentive enough for our needs. I really wanted to love this place. I wish I had selected other options from the menu. I do plan to give Lobby Bar another visit in the near future. I hope I can update my review with more positive feedback. read more

This place is taking social media by storm for their Girl Dinner and Happy Meal Special so I had to check it out! So the Happy Meal deal is for happy hour only Tuesday to Friday. I could not find this anywhere on their website. Girl dinner is all day everyday and inclusions are in the photo. Food: -Caesar salad 3/5 cheese overload but not a strong Caesar dressing. I like the chopped salad consistency. Would not order again. -Parmesan Truffle Fries: 3.5/5 again a lot of cheese. Very little truffle. It is a good French fry so I would order the regular in the future. Drink: Gracias Poncho 3.5/5 resembles pink lemonade. Atmosphere: most tables are two seaters. There are maybe 10 tables for 4 that can be pushed together. Visited on a Saturday night. It was a little loud but not full. Sat at the bar and service was good! No problems ordering anything. read more

I took myself here for an experience I saw on TikTok or Instagram. I can't really remember but this is when they had the girl dinner and veuve clicquot adult happy meal. I came in for their happy hour. I sat immediately at the bar. It was packed, but I was served right away. I got my champagne, french fries, and the burger. Now, please understand it was more about the experience than the burger and the french fries. My french fries were a bit salty, but the burger was cool, not the most amazing burger I've ever had but keep that in mind. I did not order the caviar, but once I left I immediately knew I should have. I loved this concept so much. I felt like an adult big kid and it made my day. I ordered another drink on the menu, it had St. Germain in, can't remember the name, but it wasn't really that great. Started a few conversations at the bar and everybody was nice. We all chatted about the adult Happy meal because everybody was there for it, and it was cute and satisfying. It was crowded so it felt like it was a small area, but I think if you get there at a decent time during the day, parking isn't terrible otherwise you'll be circling the block a few times. I told myself I would go back for the girl dinner haven't made it back yet, but it was a great experience. Highly recommend read more

Here is my review after visiting this place twice! The decor is beautiful. The decor was hand picked by the GM of the restaurant and he did such an amazing job. From the main floor to the bathroom. Everything is so beautiful and unique. I absolutely loved the cozy feel of the entire restaurant. The food was really good! Everything was super yummy! I highly recommend the smash burger, chicken pot pie, as well as the spicy rigatoni! The chicken sandwich was good, but could definitely use a sauce with a little kick. The espresso martini was probably the best espresso martini I've ever had! My only complaint is the lack of the beans. The beans have traditional significance and meaning. The service overall was great the first night! The second night wasn't bad, but our waitress kept forgetting our drinks. Overall, it did not ruin our experience and we will most definitely come back again! read more

Swanky, expensive cocktail bar. We stopped in on a whim early in the day and were able to snag bar seats, but we were asked if we had reservations. The cocktail I had was described as floral, but it was just a straight gin martini, nothing floral about it. We were told to give honestly feedback, but no one ever came back to ask us what we thought. Cool spot if you're looking for somewhere to get a cocktail. read more
