    The bar
    Helene H.

    They are super nice. It's a cute space, and warm on this cold day They have a small downstairs and an even smaller space upstairs but they have two bars! The music was a little loud, but not too upsetting. I got the Cali Burger, it was pretty good, I ate it all.

    FOOD: I'd marry that French toast. There are no words just joy. Do you need a cocktail served in a bathtub...indeed, you do! SERVICE: Jamie was behind the bar and on tables. But he did not miss a beat and that was worth applause. When I arrived it wasn't busy but by the time I departed it was definitely lively. That didn't stop him from constantly checking in. He was kind, answered all my questions about menu modifications and even called the kitchen from the rooftop. AMBIANCE: The wrong rooftop on a rainy day could suck! But this WASN'T the wrong rooftop. A time was had by all. The mix of of folks who found their way up the 3 flights to 801's rooftop were a great time. The play list didn't hurt the vibes on bit.

    We were here to grab brunch with our friends. We did not have reservations, so we got really lucky to get a nice table for 4. Hostess was very nice. We ordered bottomless mimosas for the table. They bring various juices for your mimosa and the Prosecco was great too. For food we ordered eggs with sausage and bacon. Food is mostly American with some Mexican blended into it. Huge portions as I couldn't finish mine. It was very delicious. Price was nominal compared to other brunch places. Ambiance was great. Parking can be hard to find in this area.

    Stopped by last night for a few drinks and some food. Great location we sat at the rooftop they have amazing views of the city. Service and food were great. Definitely will stop by again.

    My friend and I came here before a 930 club show for dinner. They had good reviews, but I didn't take a good look at their menu. It's a bit of Mexican food for dinner, along with some other food, which was wonderful. My friend and I shared the roasted cauliflower and steak fajitas. They even provided extra tortillas for us, which came out hot. Everything was phenomenal and I would definitely come back here. The ambiance was great and they even had a rooftop I'll have to check out next time. I definitely suggest this place before a show at the 930 club or other clubs in the area.

    This was my first time here at 801, and I must say I enjoyed myself. It wasn't busy because it was the holiday, so people probably assumed they were closed. My steak was good, just the way I like it medium rare. Scrambled with cheese, and they do charge extra for cheese. I could have had more, but it's all good. I wanted potatoes, but those fries hit the spot! The sauce on the side I poured some on my steak, which is oil and herbs. Mimosas... 3 different flavors OJ, peach, and I believe strawberry... don't quote me on that because I can't remember. It's definitely worth a visit, and all of my friends' food looked pretty good, too! Check it out!!!!

    Chicken Al Pipian ($18)
    Calder S.

    801 was pretty good. It has a pretty normal, crowd pleasing menu and reasonable prices. You aren't going to be wowed but you aren't going to be disappointed, either. Many of the reviews on here are for brunch, but I visited for dinner on a Saturday. It was pretty quite at ~6 PM. I sat on the first floor, which was a friendly if somewhat plain space. The menu is mostly Tex Mex and American, with dishes like tacos and burritos but also burgers and salmon. To drink, we had beer: Right Proper Raised by Wolves ($8) and Modelo ($7). Then we had the Quesabirria Tacos which had two large birria tacos with consomme ($18). And the Chicken Al Pipian, which was two pieces of fried chicken with pipian rojo, spinach, and rice. Pipian sauce was new to me -- it's a Mexican sauce made with pumpkin seeds and dried red chilies. Both entrees were solid. The pipian sauce wasn't spicy, but had a nice, slightly spiced, savory flavor. The rice reminded me of butter rice when I was a kid, which I liked. The fry on the chicken was very good, although the chicken itself could have used some more flavor, either from a brine or from some spices in the fry. The tacos were pretty standard -- beef, melted cheese, a little bit of burnt cheese flavor, and broth. Service was friendly and timely. Again, pretty good but also pretty average.

    Happy hour special

    I normally come for brunch. The service is always a 5/5. They offer bottomless espresso martinis, rum punches, and mimosas. The food is good and there's ample street parking. There's a rooftop. The happy hour is pretty good as well

    Solid brunch that never disappoints me or my friends when we need an easy brunch situation. The staff is friendly and professional. The spot is clean and stays busy regardless of when you stop by. It is essentially on U street so it's not too quiet. But everyone usually is there having a great time especially when it warms up outside.

    The 801 Breakfast of Champions (5 stars)
    Rebecca F.

    Highly recommend brunch on the second floor! There are a variety of seating options, we chose the bar. Both Tago and Kevin were welcoming and attentive. As I explained that day, I found the spot on Yelp that morning and wanted to try the food! The Breakfast of Champions dish was EVERYTHING! (5 stars) It was filling and had lots of all ingredients! My friend ordered the chorizo tacos which she liked but vowed to try the dish I ordered the next time. The Bottomless Mimosas were lovely; especially because you're given the juice on the side. I ordered strawberry and my friend ordered grapefruit. They also offer a good deal with cocktails as well! The only part I didn't like was the $4 charge for one slice of toast. I think I've found my new Sunday brunch spot!

The ribeye and New York strip were very good. The butchers steak I got for my son and he didn't really like it, it was lacking flavor. If you do anything when you go, please make sure to get the biscuits. Hands down THE BEST BISCUITS I've ever had lol. They are the most flaky and buttery biscuits, you can count each layer that these have. Pro tip is to ask for butter and the house made jam. The pimento cheese is good with them but it becomes a little too decadent. Overall I'm happy we made the decision to come here, we will be back soon.

We were sat in the solarium area, and it was during the heat dome, and it was really warm in there. Otherwise, though, it's completely charming inside and reminds us of some of the best French bistros we've been to in the country (e.g. Balzathar, Le Supreme). The three cocktails we tried--the frose, le jardin, and the clouseau--were all stunners. And of course the bread deserves another special mention, *especially* the room temperature butter. Thank you for not serving hard as hell butter! We shared the warm shrimp salad to start, and for $31, we were expecting more than a few avocado slices and 4 shrimp on it, but c'est la vie. The dressing was incredible, and the greens were crunchy. That's actually the only dish of the night that we thought was unfairly overpriced. One of us ordered the burger and the other got the rabbit pappardelle--you've got to get rabbit when you see it on a menu, which isn't often enough! There was a good amount of super tender meat and the pasta was perfectly al dente, all in a lightly stunning sauce. Chef's kiss. The burger was, no surprise, another triumph. There was juicy meat, bun integrity, and all the right accouterment notes. The fries are standard. Our daughter got their mac-n-cheese, which is probably just the gratin dish renamed. It was OK. We kind of got out of control for dessert and ordered the pot de creme, the cookie dough ice cream, and the profiteroles. Honestly, these were all good, but nothing that stood out as exemplary as with the savory stuff. Our only major complaint was the service. It was really spotty and while there was a very, very long gap in between when we got our water and then put in our drinks, but our mains came out almost directly after the salad. And the guy was just not very hospitable. Not necessarily a "bad" experience...it just could have been a lot better. Four stars, and we have already declared that we will be back again to "The Dip" because there is so much else on the menu that we want to try.

Churchkey itself is everything a great bar should be. The beer selection is absolutely unreal -- hundreds of carefully curated labels spanning every style, region, and flavor profile you can imagine. What sets it apart is that the staff actually knows the menu. Our server walked us through a few options based on what we liked and landed us on perfect picks both times. That kind of genuine expertise is rare. The tavern pizzas from the wood-fired oven were a wonderful surprise -- thin, crispy, and the perfect companion to a cold draft.

Great for a date, a group, or even just sitting at the bar solo with a good beer and good conversation with the bartender.

Overall, the food was fresh, the portions were generous, and there was something for everyone. I'd definitely return the next time I'm in DC.

    Excellent lunch at The Smith! We came in for a late lunch without a reservation.

We could tell that they had all the families with little kids grouped to one side of the restaurant, and we felt that was clever and convenient. The food was great! We both got salads. I loved the snap pea chicken salad. And my husband really liked the soba noodle salmon salad. He had a Bloody Mary, and I had a yummy mocktail. Everything was great, including the service!

Honestly we were so pleasantly surprised by how good the burgers are! I had the Capital Burger which had such incredible flavor and the burger itself is thick and juicy. Despite having just had a big dinner somewhere else, as I write this, my mouth is watering. My daughter had the wild mushrooms burger and she loved it -- the aioli had the perfect tang to go with the mushroom and Swiss, both burgers were cooked perfectly medium as requested. The old fashioned was just your typical old fashioned with a slice of candied bacon attached to the outside of the glass. We were hoping for something smokier and a little different but it was still a very good Old Fashioned. We shared the chocolate mousse and it was perfection. Yum! If I lived here this would be my new regular spot.
