Sofia CaseNovember 18, 2018Awful. Completely overrated. Underflavoured expensive food. Rude servers. AVOID
Michael BriggsOctober 30, 2010For Mescal go with a flight of Tobala, Santo Domingo and Chichcapa (sp?)
Matthew NelsonJune 27, 2015Was ok. Service was not exceptional. Food was decent. Not worthy of a repeat visit.
happycontentmeSeptember 6, 2013Be wary or broken glass in your food... They use glass plates even when they are chipped!!!- Michael BriggsOctober 30, 2010Get the Tequila flights. So far, we've had Milagro, Corazon and Corralejo
Heather MittensJanuary 19, 2013We ended up leaving because our "45 minute" wait became an hour and 15 minutes with 4 groups ahead of us still.
NevenkaJuly 6, 2014Overrated, overpriced, bad service, tiny tables, bad food. Pretentious. Avoid this place, you'll thank me.
Cat R.October 16, 2010Ryan S. was a terrible waiter who not only took down the wrong order, but then had an attitude about it. Also wasn't very accommodating when we asked to split an entree.
Matt CollinsMay 26, 2013Food is amazing but the service was terrible they forgot my food completely.

"Probably my favorite museum in DC. What makes this place so fun is that they have famous artists painting other celebrities and historical figures. Always something fun in their special exhibits."
