Jack Rose Dining Saloon

Pricey, but good for a fancy night out- especially if you're into whiskey. Service staff offered wonderful recommendations on whiskey selections. I'd recommend getting a flight and expecting the different flavours. Excellent service and presentation on that end. Food service is a little underwhelming for the price. Shareable offerings are a little sparse, and all menu items are a-la carte. Can't recommend if you're just there for dinner and not going for a whiskey experience. However, a must-visit if you like any kind of whiskey.

Jack Rose is a must-visit for whiskey enthusiasts in the Washington DC area. Despite some initial option paralysis, navigating the mobile menu and searching “Jack Rose” under the whiskey section reveals affordable specialty picks. What sets this place apart is the unique experience – when you order whiskey, they leave you with the bottle, allowing you to savor and enjoy the pour. Adam, a helpful and friendly staff member, guided a (my gf)whiskey newcomer to intriguing options. Also arriving around 7:00 PM, post the after-work rush, provides a more relaxed atmosphere. Overall, a fantastic experience worth repeating.

If you find yourself looking for an amazing whiskey, rye, bourbon, or craft cocktail experience while wandering in Washington DC, look no further. This location has an amazing selection of various spirits, some dating back to the prohibition era. Some items offered are not available in the States or are no longer made. Yes, you may pay up for your experience, but you definitely are getting what you pay for. I highly suggest trying a flight of spirits. There are flights mentioned on the menu. However, the mixologists working here can put a flight together for you to satisfy the experience you're looking to have. The mixologists here are very knowledgeable with the various spirits in stock and can provide you with a little history about the spirit of your selection. The food items offered on the menu are very delicious and provide a little soakage to further enjoy the various spirits on hand. This location has a good feel, very knowledgeable and awesome staff, an amazing selection of spirits and good food! What more could you ask for? Definitely stop in. This spot does not disappoint.

Great bar! So many options of bourbon, wine and craft cocktails to chose from. Did not eat food while on my visit. The only downfall was that we visited on a Saturday around 9pm and it was super packed on both floors. Hard to have a conversation let alone find a table. Would try to go back during the afternoon to enjoy the bar downstairs next visit.

The food was excellent, just look at my pork chop! What I want to highlight is the service. I was part of a group holding two separate reservations so we could host guests though we weren't quite sure how many would show up. After describing the situation to our host and then our server, they did everything they could to accommodate our group, including allowing us to move closer to each other, which they certainly did not need to do. Kudos!

The moment I walked into Jack Rose Dining Saloon, I embarked on an unforgettable journey of the senses. I was instantly struck by a sight that would excite any whiskey aficionado - a display of fine bourbons and whiskeys covering every inch of the wall. Our evening began with a captivating spread of appetizers. The scallop ceviche, a delightful burst of freshness, was rivaled only by the extravagant bone marrow; a savory treat that melted in the mouth with unrivaled richness. The steak tartare and crispy chicken skin, intended for the daring palate, lived up to their exciting promise. The main course was nothing short of spectacular. The 16oz New York Strip arrived, flawlessly cooked to a medium rare perfection. Each bite was a savory revelation. As a pasta aficionado, I was equally taken by the bucatini pasta, a comforting plateful that tasted just like home. The drink selection at Jack Rose impressed me no end. I found delight in the carefully balanced Trailblazer cocktail, but it was their Old Fashioned that truly shone. This timeless classic offered a comforting, familiar embrace. As a grand finale, my wife declared her Irish coffee as simply the best she's ever had. Jack Rose welcomed us with its laid-back atmosphere, prompting easy conversation and hearty laughter. The adept staff had a skillful way of attending to our needs, subtly replacing empty glassware just when required. It was these refined touches that elevated our dining experience from merely great to truly phenomenal. For all bourbon/whiskey enthusiasts out there, I can't recommend Jack Rose Dining Saloon highly enough. I found myself engrossed in the selection, with each sip more rewarding than the last. Looking back, Jack Rose Dining Saloon was more than just a dining venue - it was a culinary adventure brimming with charm and warmth, a place that promised and delivered an exciting, vibrant night out. As our evening eventually came to a close, I left with a satisfied palate, a heart full of joy, and cherished memories of a fantastic meal that I'd eagerly anticipate reliving.

Every time I'm in DC I find an excuse to come here. The food is excellent but this is the best Bourbon bar in America for variety, with pretty decent prices as well. It's hands down my favorite bar. The rooftop is cool and open while the saloon area is dark and cozy. The staff is extremely knowledgeable about bourbon and the bartenders are amazing. You must go here if you enjoy bourbon.
