Omg when tell you a time was had in this place.we had a time the ambiance and atmosphere was everything the details an music was great drinks a little too pricey $20 and the tips $ gratuity is crazy. Beside that I had a good time.bartender was very bias.my friend ask for a birthday drink he said no but gave two white girls drinks for free right in front of us I think was disrespectful but anyways am glad we didn’t let him mess our mood up we was turned regardless and could afford the party that why am giving a 5 star
A beautiful rooftop bar on the Wharf with some great views of the sunset. Unfortunately, it is quite expensive with $20 cocktails and appetizers/food starting at $10.
The food did taste really good and I enjoyed the seasoned fries and shrimp/chicken tacos.

The place was super crowded. It was a #blackingovernment event. The view is nice. Service was slow. I was charged 50$ for a strawberry margarita - drink listed on the menu for 21$. I kept calling and no one ever picked the phone.
So.. we arrived and somehow our reservation changed the date when we changed the time. The manager Terrell was still
Able to accommodate us swiftly. All of the staff were very kind and willing to step in to help
Their peers. The music was good. The food was hot and well seasoned. The. Bathroom were clean and well stocked. I would definitely come
Back!! The customer service was definitely top tier !

The food was phenomenal! We got a section that had a breathtaking view of the harbor! Music was great at first but it remained old school with like three current hits. Would have loved more new music sprinkled in. The crowd was a really nice mix. Sadly for an upscale lounge/club either there was no dress code or the doorman just didn't care. The bottle service had us feeling like Kings and Queens!
Great spot w/ amazing views in the Wharf. Service was ok, bartenders not super attentive. Waited for drinks as bartenders & servers talked. Bad part is there is an automatic 20% gratuity on each tab & they don't tell u that. Drinks are pricey, we had 4 basic drinks for $72. Worth going up for a drink or 2 just because of the views of the Potomac, the city & the planes laning at Regan National Airport
Limited menu . No happy hour so my margarita Was $20 or something high. Wings were ago. I dropped a picture. Bartenders are slow they couldn’t manage about 5 women at the bar and they seemed to have a hard time handling cash and multi tasking. The roof top doesn’t open up so if you want to be outside with a view their is no music. I don’t really know why this place is so hyped.
Great views, great service. Limited menu though, just apps?? Definitely deserves a visit because of the fantastic views, DCA airport as well as the chanel and city views. It's amazing and worth the visit for a few drinks. The service is excellent, from the hostess to the servers, super attentive and nice. We ordered the grilled chicken wings and shrimp, both were bland. My party did not finish them because they weren't that good, and for $17 for a few wings, you would think they would be good. Despite that, worth going to just for the views.
