The bartender just didn’t want to be there and seems to take offense that customers had the audacity to show up. Watching someone who works in customer service post up in plain view and scroll on their phone will always be unacceptable. But then this guy barely spoke and never checked in to see how the food, drinks and service was for me. Terrible! The ladies that worked there seemed nice. I can’t blame it on being busy. There were only 4 people, including myself, sitting at the bar. Do better. To top things off, I ordered a mixed drink (old fashioned) that was gone within a few sips. Next time, pour something in the glass.

Got to the bar when they opened. Bartender seemed to be disinterested in customers. Watched one patron wait at the bar until a lovely woman came to his rescue! The place was not busy. His Woodford Old Fashioned was fine, but maybe some energy??!! He never checked how I was doing and of if I wanted another!

Tucked away – dignified- bar and small plate spot. After traversing through the spacious almost cavernous lobby of the Marquis Marriott, this was a nice spot to hide out and chat away the evening. Food was plentiful and nicely priced. We got what we paid for.

The staff is so nice and friendly. The cocktails are soooo good. the Whisk-cello was definitely my favorite. I also has the Mediterranean salad and it was very good. The vibes are kind of laid back speakeasy. Definitely recommend

I tried to go here three times during a seven-week stay in Washington. Each time it was “closed for a private event,” despite this sign in the hotel’s lobby. It has a great reputation, but I feel like management should be much clearer on its website and on social media platforms about its hours.

My experience was not particularly ‘deep’.
That being said: No issues. Great cocktail and chowder. Ordered the Man O’War and chowder. Excellent stuff. A little pricey, but it’s DC.

I walked into dignitary bar and I was greeted with a warm and bright welcome by John and I think the young man name was bj. John took me on a whiskey tour which made me feel like I was at distiller. I’m going to give this bar a five star because of the customer service I received today. By the way, 1792 Sweet wheat is my new go to Bourbon. And I want to mention the ambience is Stunning

A very iconic facade that evokes a different time.

Staff is horrible. No personality and not friendly. I sat at the bar and the bartender just looked at me. Minutes later after I stared him down he came and asked what I wanted to drink. I requested a martini, and he didn’t even ask if I’d like vodka or gin. Vodka it is

Great selection, great vibe, weak pour and didn’t love Manhattan which was a bit pricey that was on their drink menu.
