"velvet and rye is the ultimate date night experience. the ambiente is amazing, elegant and aesthetically appealing. lena is broken, it looks like 3 parts and velvety and is roggen where they want to be for a heel and clutch at night. our server was very attentive and friendly. I enjoyed the blackberry rose colonies, which refresh together with a glass prosecco. As for eating, I was not impressed by the menu outside the pizza and even with the pizza, we ordered the meatball and a pfeffersalbe, both were just okay. the garlic parmesan wings were so good. even if the selection of foods was not the best, based on the ambiente and service, I will recommend all couples for a cute date night out."

"This place really helped me adjust. I later learned that people gravitate towards certain bars, and I found my favorites, especially those with live music like Birchmere, Black Cat, 9:30 Club, Lincoln, Capital One Arena, and even the now-closed O'Shaughnessy's and Rock & Roll Hotel. One of my most memorable experiences was running into Rory Sheridan on one of my first visits. He was launching his DC music campaign back then and was part of Loud Boyz. We chatted a few times, and I even caught up with some old classmates. Another highlight was when I heard about a “reunion” night before Thanksgiving, and I decided to crash it. There were moments where people could be unkind or I felt out of place, but I was given some guidance on where I would fit in better, without the unnecessary drama. Being in Old Town, I was familiar with nearby schools like West Potomac, Mount Vernon, and Bishop Ireton. During my visits, I would often take an Alexandria cab or use Metro Access, being discreet about my disability since I felt embarrassed at times. Being a regular meant navigating the tourist scene, and there were people who seemed territorial about the place, but I ended up doing quite well when I sold my house. Good times continued with events like watching RG3 play for the Redskins or meetups organized by JT. I enjoyed New Year’s celebrations and weekend outings. I also frequented other establishments like Flying Fish before it closed, and O'Shaughnessy's before I decided to stop drinking. This is a sports bar located near a bicycle shop, close to the Ben & Jerry's I used to work at, along with many other walkable bars for bar hopping, like Union Street Pub and Fish Market. It can be a great place to have fun, but with the good comes some downsides. Overall, I felt well-hosted and respected here, despite some things I was not initially aware of or didn’t want to uncover."

"this was a very private small area that they had to go through the bar to put themselves in the back, so it was a bit confusing. the service was really good. the appetizers were especially the cold smoked hamachi. I took a friend here for her birthday, I got the steak and she got the roasted chicken with fingering kartoffels when I came to eat and I was cut into my steak it was perfect, but the haw was raw so we had to send it back. all they did, it was again in many, so that the chicken burned on the outside and very dry on the inside, not juicy, tender or damp. it had no taste at all for such a high-quality restaurant that he would at least have seasoned. the overall experience was great, except the main course of my friends, not to be good at all."

"Nous étions en retard pour notre réservation, mais Chuck a gentiment tenu la table pour nous. La salade César à table était incroyable. Nos plats principaux étaient un peu d'attente, mais avant que nous puissions nous plaindre, notre serveur s'est excusé et ils sont apparus peu de temps après. La nourriture et les portions incroyables étaient bien adaptées. Nos steaks étaient parfaitement préparés! En raison du petit retard dans notre alimentation, le directeur a envoyé un skor Sundae pécheresse que nous avons dévoré, même si nous étions beaucoup trop pleins. Excellent service et félicitations à la direction pour rester au top du service."

"Recently visited DC in August in Remembrance of my grandmother and this local eatery was walking distance from my hotel. I saw advertisements in our hotel room and thought, why not. So, on a 5minute stroll we, made it. Its a small spot but very busy. While looking over the menu, atleast 3 or 4 uber eats drivers did order pickups. The inside is fairly small but they have about 5tables with chairs. We got a bottle of wine to take back to the hotel and had a couple of spritzers with our food.. our food was really delish!! The butter garlicky wings and the artesian style pizza was definitely a winner. I definitely recommend n should we take at the particular hotel on my next visit ,cause I gotta come bac, I will absolutely be eating here, again.. N although they were very busy, they still explained menu items, welcomed US to the city and gave suggestions on places to go."
