Late review: I came for DC restaurant week. The skirt steak was good. Had to pay extra on top of the normal restaurant week price. The soups were good. I would come here just for the savory butternut squash bisque! Highly recommend the soup. I'll be back for the soup!

The food was phenomenal and service was very quick although slightly strange. They kept taking away and replacing silverware seemingly at random. Sometimes I'd have 2 forks, sometimes I'd have 1 fork and 1 knife. Then they'd come and take a clean fork and replace it with a knife. I'm pretty sure they were trying to make sure we had the right utensils for the dish we were about to have but it seemed very random.
Overall I'd still highly recommend the restaurant

A very popular place in the Foggy Bottom area, you need to make reservations if you want a table. However, if you are on your own or in a small group, the seats at the bar seem to turn over quickly. I only stopped in for a quick drink and bite to eat but I found the atmosphere and decor fun and lively. The staff were very helpful and engaging. They have a varied drink menu here and a good wine selection. Be forewarned, the Denizens Third Party Triple on tap, strong! They also offer a great Happy Hour selection at very reasonable prices.

We came here for dinner. It was very nice and the service was spot on. We had red curry mussels, they were really good! I wish the portion was larger, mussels are cheap- that pot should have been filled! I had the shrimp and grits- that was really nice and a good portion. The GF had the fig and pig flat bread, she liked it. A really good beer selection and nice wines too. The bread is good but an extra bread is $1. FYI. But worth it...

District Commons is a great place to enjoy dinner or happy hour near GWU. This restaurant can become very busy particularly the bar area. District Commons has some very good happy hours which may be why. They also have oysters on the half. Districts Common has a variety of dinner offerings from hanger steak to salmon. My steak was cooked to order and the asparagus was a good accompaniment. The only downside was the service was spotty and our server disappeared so we were left without water or refills.

Seriously a great restaurant and extra stars for a drink menu celebrating the Nationals World Series win: specialty drinks & prices for the entire restaurant instead of just at the bar. The best corn & crab chowder - and a generous portion, served hot too like soup should be too. Delicious Atlantic salmon with grilled cauliflower and a puree as well as chard and golden raisins. Mom had the cheeseburger and fries (which I ate most....). Saw acclaimed chef & owner Jeff Tunks behind the line - always impressive to see that. Place was 100% full and so was the bar - great buzz here.

Great food! Great service! Great beer! It can get really loud in there but...it's hoppin' instead of dreary. The place is set up really well and the menu is a twist on comfort food. The shrimp and grits, portobella mushroom, brick pressed chicken, and the tagliatelle are all recommendations my pallet makes to you! Wash it down with an Anderson Valley Summer Solstice (Cream Ale) and you'll be a happy camper, too! Great place to go before a show at the Kennedy Center.

The food was excellent and the service is on point, the only thing missing from this brunch experience is some music, even if it's low background music
Our waitress Nicole was on point, we had a large party and yet our glasses never got a chance to get empty

A great pre- Kennedy Center dinner at the bar. A great bar and restaurant vibe. Seth, our barkeep, was amiable and very helpful with suggestions and he fixed excellent cocktails. Happy Hour has great food and drink specials. The Smoked Trout Deviled Egg appetizer was very good. Our Salmon with fresh seasonal vegetables was excellent. Mushrooms, as a side, were Delish. Our Caramelized Chocolate Bread Pudding with Bourbon Caramel Ice Cream was deadly delicious. An altogether perfect experience

Modern eatery with a menu to match. We arrived during brunch and the menu was varied enough to please everyone. The cocktail, beer and wine list was quite extensive, and because it was brunch, there were also bottomless mimosas and Bloody Mary’s. The restaurant has a cool vibe with concrete and wood accents. The wait staff is pleasant and attentive. Highly recommend.
