Me and a group of friends ended up at Silk Lounge after brunch while looking for a nearby spot to chill that had hookah. It was right down the street, not too packed when we pulled up (probably because it was freezing outside), and the vibes were solid from the jump. We ordered hookah and let me just say, it was super bussing. They kept coming around with refills nonstop. Honestly, almost too attentive in the best way. We tried telling them we had literally just sat down and didn't need a refill yet, but they insisted anyway. I swear after every refill, the hookah somehow got stronger and stronger. I don't know what they were putting in that coal, but it was hitting. One of the biggest reasons we stayed longer than planned was the music. The playlist was on point. Good enough that we ended up hanging out at least 30 minutes to an hour longer than we originally intended just because the vibes were right. Hospitality overall was great. Since it was cold outside, they had space heaters set up, which made a big difference and showed they were thinking about guest comfort. The only thing holding this back from five stars is the water situation. No tap water, and a bottled water came out to about $6 after tax, which is wild. They fix that, and this is an easy five-star spot all day.

Lamb Chops mashed potatoes and Brussels sprouts

I love silk and I do go there pretty often, even when I just want to grab something to eat after work because they close at 2am but when they are crowded, they have a hard time keeping up with the service but they do help each other so that they can keep up. The foo is always great but I don't know if the chef changed, the Brussels sprouts were not good the second time I went and maybe it was because they had a lot of orders. The drinks are always great! I order a French 75 every time and I'm always pleased with it. The hookah is cool and they do come around to check on it. They can get a little pricey especially when you order drinks and I think the hookah is pretty high but it's high everywhere now. It's a nice setting and the bathroom is decent so that's a plus for me because lounge barrooms get pretty nasty. They also have chargers available in the main seating area so I think that's convenient and the mirrors are a nice touch as well. I like silk and I hope they stay open for a while!

Lamb chops, wings & brussel sprouts!

Food was great!! We made it during happy hour on a Saturday and were able to try everything. Oxtail egg-roll, lamb chops,pasta wings all delicious. They offer hookah also. We didn't partake but it's a good option for a fun night out. Drinks were good. Tequila sour and house margarita. Overall will be back

Wings & Oxtail Eggroll
Terrell R.

This is an elegant and intimate lounge spot located in northwest DC with a decent sized bar with a couple of tv's and surrounded by comfy couches and chairs. I stopped in during the evening hours (their happy hour runs from 5pm-9pm) and their menu features items like beef and chicken empanadas, fish tacos, and Rasta pasta ($12-$36). The staff was quite pleasant and helpful providing great suggestions for items to try given this was my first time at the location. I decided to test out the oxtail eggrolls and the chicken wings as well. The items arrived swiftly and were delicious: the wings were well-seasoned and not overcooked, and the oxtail eggroll was everything I had hoped it would be, tender and flavorful. Definitely give them a try whenever the opportunity presents itself, I'll certainly be looking forward to trying more of the food menu items as well as the hookah on my next outing.

Came here after dinner on Saturday, 11/23/2024. Arrived around 8:30 PM. It was a small crowd inside…read morebut since my friend was smoking a cigar we could only sit outside under the heaters on the covered portion of the outside sidewalk. Nomad offers no food just liquor and hookah. They also have cigars for sale but you're allowed to bring your own cigars. I had a Mango mint hookah which was considered to be one of their regular flavor options. The hookah was very flavorful and after about an hour - they changed the coals. The menu says that there's a 2 hour limit on the hookah. However my friend kept ordering drinks and therefore they didn't enforce that rule. You are allowed to bring food in and eat it as long as you're drinking. There are TVs inside and outside and there's music playing as well. The servers are attentive and friendly and I would come back.

Nomad is cool for what it is. Not the most glamorous lounge, but not sketchy either. As they do…read morehave an inside lounge, most people enjoy the outside patio area. They offer a nicely priced happy hour, if I remember correctly. They don't serve food. The drinks are pretty standard. I've never been wowed with my service here, but I've never been disappointed either. Nomad is pretty much a local neighborhood hookah spot that is just good enough. Would I go back? Sure I've been plenty of times! But don't expect fancy or glamour.

4/5 Stars Kitchen +…read moreKocktails by Kevin Kelley | Washington, DC We had reservations for Saturday evening at 7 PM and were seated immediately, which I appreciated considering how busy the restaurant was. The atmosphere was lively, although I anticipated a more upscale experience based on the photographs. The food was delicious (4.5/5), and the cocktails were pretty decent! Our server was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and drinks. Unfortunately, after our food arrived, he only checked on us once. We also experienced a disappointing interaction with another employee who was extremely dismissive when my significant other politely asked where the restroom was located. She didn't make eye contact or verbally acknowledge him, simply pointing in the direction. I completely understand that restaurants get busy, but basic courtesy, attentiveness, and hospitality should never be compromised. NOW, LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT KHENDRA! 10/10! After requesting a manager, we had the absolute pleasure of meeting KHENDRA, who was truly the highlight of our evening! She demonstrated exceptional leadership, professionalism, and accountability. She listened attentively, acknowledged our concerns without making excuses, and assured us they would be addressed appropriately after closing. I explained that my intention was to provide constructive feedback, not simply complain. She understood completely! KHENDRA DIDN'T JUST APOLOGIZE; SHE TOOK OWNERSHIP AND MADE OUR EXPERIENCE BETTER! She personally showed us the downstairs dining area and graciously provided a complimentary peach cobbler. BABYYYYY!!! THAT PEACH COBBLER WAS EVERYTHING! 10/10! Absolutely delicious! If you visit, DO NOT leave without trying it! Would I return? ABSOLUTELY! An establishment isn't defined solely by whether everything goes perfectly, but also by how its leadership responds when something doesn't. To the ownership team: YOU HAVE AN ABSOLUTE GEM IN KHENDRA! Her professionalism, honesty, and exceptional managerial skills deserve recognition! If you visit, ask for KHENDRA, tell her TERRI SAID HELLO, and don't forget that peach cobbler! My Ratings: Seating: 5/5 Atmosphere: 4/5 Food: 4.5/5 Service: 3/5 KHENDRA: 10/10! Peach Cobbler: 10/10 Overall: 4/5 Stars People may remember the food, but they'll ALWAYS remember how you made them feel!

Is it fair for a regular to comment? Maybe... maybe not...but this is my favorite hookah bar in DC!…read more The service is great - I can note several of the bartenders by name (Yulia, Chrissy, JD, Simca just to name a few) and they recognize me -- so it's a local vibe for regulars, but open to new regulars! That said, there are busy nights (typically on the weekends) so you will need to be a little patient and may need to arrive earlier if you want a seat. That (also) said, I'll ask you - where can you get sushi and hookah? It's like the best combo of bougie and ratchet - I think they call it sophistiratchet. The hookah is consistent and reasonably priced when you consider some of the other spots who outsource their hookah to vendors and charge double the cost. The music is always good - ranging from current hits to afrobeats to oldies. Try it out and see what you think!!

This place almost passed the vibe check on the surface... the DJ was cool. The floor was nasty,…read morechair was wet, and the springs were non existent is the sunken couches. Ordered a hookah the first one the brought had cloudy water and stuff floating in it. The 2nd one was better but burned harsh the whole time. The drinks were terrible. I got a margarita and all I tasted was sour mix. My friend got a lemon drop... again full of sour mix. The service was subpar, the waitress couldn't hear anything we asked and ran the our card without giving us an itemized bill. Didn't even bother with food.

- good party on a Sunday afternoon im told it gets good…read more around 8/9 pm - there was barely anyone in there between 5p-7p on an 80 degree Sunday. - $20 for women, $30 for guys - $80 hookah the madness needs to stop - with so few patrons, the bartenders were hella attentive

I am writing to formally report an incident that occurred at Rose Bar on Saturday, November 1st,…read morearound 11:48 PM on the second-floor bar (where DJ Ratchet was performing). There were two bartenders working at that time. The bartender in question was not the Asian woman, but rather a woman who appeared to be mixed with Black and White. Her behavior toward me and my husband was extremely unprofessional, inappropriate, and disrespectful. From the moment I approached the bar, she was unfriendly, dismissive, and gave me dirty looks. She then made a highly inappropriate comment toward my husband, stating that she was "out of strawberry Hennessy but sweet enough for him," and later propositioned him for sex in exchange for money. I ordered two drinks -- a Jolly Rancher and a Long Island. My drink had no alcohol in it, despite costing nearly $50 for both drinks. When my husband returned the drink to the bar and mentioned that it lacked alcohol, the bartender laughed and called me a "bitch." This experience left me deeply uncomfortable and disrespected, especially as a married woman. It is unacceptable for staff to engage in such inappropriate and sexually suggestive behavior toward customers. The bartender's actions made me feel unsafe and completely unwelcome, and I will not return to Rose Bar as a result. I am requesting that this matter be investigated immediately and that appropriate action be taken against the bartender involved. I also recommend that management review its employee conduct policies and sexual harassment training to ensure all patrons are treated with dignity and respect. Thank you for your attention to this serious matter. I am available to provide additional details if needed. Date of Incident: Saturday, November 1st Time: Approximately 11:48 PM Location: Second-Floor Bar (where DJ Ratchet was performing)
