Donyiel C.

I've been here several times and I'm not impressed. On weekends, the lines are super long. I was here recently for a bar crawl and the whole point is that you don't have to wait in the line with a wristband which I had. The guy at the door didn't care and told me to wait in the line. The drinks are overpriced and very watered down. In fact, some of the bartenders don't know how to make basic drinks. Their "VIP" section is a joke! The DC scene is just different these days! Yes, perhaps I'm showing my age here but it is what it is! I'm not a fan!

We stumbled in here by accident while it was pouring. There is security at the door, so don't bring in any outside food, etc. (he thought our shopping bags were food) We took seats up stairs, it was well ventilated, other guests were seated at least 6 ft from us. They have happy hour drinks, food, and hookah specials until 8 I believe. Food was decent, but not a fan of being served cold sauce for hot mozzarella sticks. I ended up eating them plain and it was ok. I'm not from DC so I probably won't return but try it out if your in the neighborhood.

Service was amazing. We had Rim as our server and she was very friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable of the menu. Great hookah, great drinks and great music. They have a photographer in the building and you can get a framed picture for $20 by the end of your night. Definitely would recommend.

Proof that I had to change my own hookah.

0 stars! I created a Yelp account just for this review. This establishment is terrible. Not only do they take FOREVER to bring drinks out (meanwhile it's not busy), but they have terrible customer service. I had an issue with the hookah that I ordered because it was too harsh. I told the bartender/waitress, and I told the manager. They did not check on the issue until I repeatedly spoke upon it. In addition, I was asked to change my own hookah which caused me to burn myself. I 100% do not recommend. There are many other hookah lounges in the area you can visit besides this one. By the way, I'm from NYC. My experience was absolutely terrible.

I came during non happy hours. I thought the service and vibe was great. I enjoyed coming here and will add it to my list of go-to places. I will definitely come back to try their happy hour.

I loveeeeeee this place! It is so chic and sexy inside. Great renovation! They offer good food and pricing, fries were AMAZING! The margarita was good, pretty waitresses, hookah and the dj... DJ LOUD was soooo dope! I mean I wasn't sure if I wanted to dance, eat - dance drink? Dance talk... it was a chill Wednesday night but he made it feel like it was a Friday /Saturday! I was disappointed the bar was limited, they didn't have grapefruit juice or the ingredients for one if their signature drinks Cuervo sunshine. My friend got the 3 for 3 - chicken wings/chicken tenders/fries. He smashed them! It was described to be the perfect crisp and juicy meet for the tenders and the wings were good apparently. The upstairs was nice- you could only sit down if you opened a tab - which basically gave you the only option to sit downstairs or at the bar. It wasn't like they were selling sections and we already had drinks. We ended up just going back down stairs. The lighting is sexy, it's very narrow like most bars on u street . I enjoyed my chill evening here definitely will go back in a weekend - which I'm certain it will be packed .

My first night in DC and this is exactly how you're supposed to start it…read more A friend brought me to Thurst for birthday weekend vibes, and from the moment I walked in, the energy felt intentional and warm. The purple neon lighting creates this sultry, intimate atmosphere without being overwhelming. It's the kind of place where you can actually connect, laugh, and still feel like you're outside living. The music was a vibe. Smooth R&B blended with some Jamaican flavor and nostalgic cuts that made the room feel alive. It wasn't chaotic; it was curated. The sound set the tone without overpowering the experience. What stood out most was how comfortable the space felt. Beautiful crowd, welcoming energy, and that perfect balance between lounge and nightlife. It's not just somewhere you go to be seen; it's somewhere you go to feel good. Perfect first stop for my DC weekend. I'd absolutely return.

Came here with my a couple of my homies for a quick drink and this place is too cute. Small but spacious, dimly lit but not eerie or creepy and the bartender is NOT shy with the pours. Music was some early 2k r&b (who doesnt love that?) and its just... vibey! I know sometimes men can feel a little put off by women being in their space, lesbian or not, which I completely understand, but we felt welcomed! Two gentlemen even offered for us to sit at their table - so sweet. Even the security guards were sweeties so I can definitely see myself returning on a random night.

Chris also recommended the apple crisp dessert and OMG... it was absolutely delicious. We left with smiles, full tummies, and excellent service. I would definitely recommend asking for Chris when you visit. We'll definitely be back!

They were able to accommodate my large party with ease. The mimosas were flowing, the brunch plates were full (and plentiful), and overall the service was attentive and seamless.

I always enjoy my experiences at Park, and honestly, I may be back again next year for a three-peat birthday celebration. It's always a great time.

We decided to stay and check it out, @1pm on a Sunday. Brunch is from 11a-4pm. There was only 1 other person for brunch, when we arrived. There was a DJ was that playing super loud music. Mostly rap music. The food was good. Fresh salad, fruit, meats etc. Unlimited mimosas was $25 per person. We could only order 1 flavor at a time, which there was about 8 flavors. They were good By 3pm, the place was more so filling up. What was crazy was at 4pm, the workers started breaking down the buffet-- quickly!! A group that had arrived @ 3 were caught off guard that brunch was ending. The workers did provide everyone with TAKE HOME Boxes, so we filled our boxes as fast as they were breaking it down lol Hookah guy arrived, think it was a total of $68. The hookah was good Gratuity is automatically included. Our waitress was GREAT! Only thing I didn't like, the place had her walking around in a tight leopard body suit, with her arms out, like this was the Playboy mansion. It was cold in there. I would come back for brunch - just know, there was not a mention of a Buffet brunch online
