I went to see Supreme Commander play live there. Good sound, friendly Staff. I had no food, but a good time with no dress code.

I love this place! Monday night jazz is absolutely rockin'! Super friendly staff, great food, and cool art on the walls. I also love hanging in their back patio during the set break. The pizzas in particular are superb. It's the kind of place where you walk in and feel immediately welcome. The whole place has a very intimate feel.

The Husband and I went on a whim looking for a place to dance. We drove by and I was immediately turned all the way off. It looked like a scary, whole in the wall time forgot from the outside. Man was I so wrong! It was vibrant and lively . The drinks were decent crowd was cool and DJ on FIYAH! We found our new spot on Saturday nights. We are over 40 and house music heads. Most of the folks there fit the same description. However anyone would feel welcomed.

Went to DC Black Pride Comedy Show. Food was great, only issue was soggy, half done, greasy french fries. Chicken wings, cheese burger were delicious. Nachos were good, but would have been great if they use melted naco cheese instead of shredded cheese. Had great time
