where was everyone
went there today for lunc after 1 pm it was closed, no hours posted on the door either, heard great things, was dissappointed
nice vibe
great food paired with good service (the attractive guys are a nice plus as well)
Thursday Nights for cocktails
Yep it's a big click but the guys are cute (if you like clean cut guys) and I had no problem striking up a conversation. The tables are put away on Thursday nights after dinner and the place becomes a big ole gay bar. Check it out.
Best of Both Worlds
A gay bar and a fun diner with a vintage look and feel? That's a winning combination. Everyone is welcome and the food is comfort-based; don't go if you're on a diet. Every table gets a bowl of pickles to munch on...unique! And the tater tots and fish and chips have me going back when I need my fried food kick.
EVERY Time
I've been here on various occasions and it was a disaster! The crowd is one big click that, trust me, you won't fit into. I actually personally know everyone on my FaceBook Friends List and have had no problem making friends since moving to DC. Thankfully, I didn't start here!
