Their take on the classic hot dog consists of a Veal Heart Sausage with caraway-purple cabbage coleslaw on a pretzel roll with a side of mixed greens.

The tender Glazed Lamb Ribs at slid e right off the bone and are served alongside savory olive oil-lemon crushed potatoes, and a fresh cucumber mint salad.

If you like spicy food, then you must get the crispy Chicharrones with House Hot Sauce.

Expect a stylish, multi-level restaurant with high-end comfort food dishes like gourmet corn dogs and a terrific, Asian-inspired fried chicken sandwich from chef Marjorie-Meek Bradley. Read more

Probably one of my top 5 favorite spots -- great punch and apps. Cool live music on the second floor and great views and vibe on the rooftop deck

Pretty good value but really great food, especially the black bean quinoa burger! Very stylish multi level restaurant/bar with a great vibe

The menu at this American-style beer garden features sausages, wings, and other favorites from the grill.

Nice upgrade from the reef. Get the pig ear salad or the red house cocktail

Skip The Diner and head across the street for the "Hot Mess" - onions & peppers, potatoes, sausage, fried chicken, fried egg, & gravy. Incredible hangover food.
Tiffany LangstonFebruary 12, 2016
Excellent bar in a neighborhood full of competition. Menu is thoughtful and prices are quite reasonable.

Beautiful Rooftop, good beer selection. Best in the spring
Lizzie HatfieldMarch 25, 2016
Don't be fooled by the amazing selection of drinks, this place is great for food too.

If you're coming for brunch, grab a Bloody Mary and a Hot Mess.

Play District Trivia every Thursday at 8pm!

Roof deck has some great covered outdoor seating, but beware: it was full of loud, fratish, popped collar kids when I was there.

Nice rooftop bar, great place to hangout when the weather cooperates

Head up to the roof deck for killer views of Adams Morgan.

They have a few different bottles of cider. I suggest the basque one.

Get a cocktail downstairs. Then move to 2nd for food and more drinks.

Rooftop is nice, often live music on the second floor.
Vivian NunezJuly 23, 2015
So we decided to give this place a second try, especially because on Thursday kids -12 eat for free. WHAT A MISTAKE!!!!!! As I said before, what a sad excuse for food. Chef Marjorie Meek is terrible.
Raha D.September 12, 2020
Well, the place is nice at nights when there is musicians and live shows and such. Not very friendly bartenders. Overall its okay

Blues and Lindy Hop dancing on Monday Nights!

Great sweet potato fries, but lacking an aioli or another dipping sauce... 🍟

Beautiful view, terrible music, pretty good beers
Jaya PunethaAugust 17, 2014
Punch bowl is definitely worth it!

The bar and live music is awesome
Campbell BirdMay 6, 2015
They serve coffee here, and it's free if they take a long time to make it.
Vivian NunezApril 20, 2015
The place and location are great. The food... What a disappointment! Very mediocre cuisine, from appetizers to main dishes to a very, very sweet lime pie. I do not recommend this place at all.
T StarkJuly 15, 2015
The view of Adams Morgan is nice.
Dirk BokelohAugust 9, 2014

Chicken and waffles for brunch!

We gave Roofers Union a second chance today. I wouldn't return to even use their bathroom, let alone eat more of this food.
Eric BreeseJuly 20, 2015
Big space, tiny bar.
