The rooftop setting is lovely especially at sunset. We went on a Friday. There was a band playing street level that you could hear from the rooftop - wasn’t our genre. Later, there was jazz on the roof which we enjoyed but it could interfere with conversation.
Food was uneven. The crab appetizer was yummy as were pizza and burger. Salad and pasta just OK. Margarita was good.
Service was uneven. Our server was very rushed and forgot items (had to ask twice for a beer ordered after meal was served and finally got it at the bar) and left us unattended. Think he was covering too many tables and just needed to slow down a bit. Did not inform us that 20% is automatically added to bill but we noticed it.
Despite that, it’s a great spot for a drink and apps, pizza to share. As our friend said, it doesn’t feel like DC, more like Miami.
