"Once I arrived downstairs, I was welcomed by a cheerful young woman wearing a red fascinator hat. She had me write my name on a raffle ticket, returned one portion to her, and kept the other. However, when I went to the bar to redeem my drink using the ticket portion, the bartender looked confused. The woman in the red hat had to step in to clear up the misunderstanding. I asked about this later because I didn't want my chances in the raffle to be affected.
Speaking of the bar, even though there were three bartenders, I waited quite a while before being served. It was actually the Black bartender, who was busy attending to others, who finally noticed I hadn’t been helped and came over with a smile, asking if I needed assistance. I replied, “Hi, I am now, thank you,” and placed my drink order, which he prepared promptly and it turned out to be excellent.
I didn’t order food myself, but some in my party did. I can't honestly rate the food since I didn't try it. Overall, considering the style, service, and atmosphere of the place, I would give it a 3 out of 5 stars. As for parking, it's located in Downtown, Chinatown, DC, and finding a spot can be quite challenging – it's best to carpool."
