I came here for a friend's birthday, and she rented a private karaoke room. We had an absolute…read moreblast! I didn't get a chance to try the food, but everything I saw coming out looked really good. The karaoke room was pretty warm, but I just assumed it was because there were a lot of us in a small space, so it wasn't a big deal. The real problem was when our room time was over and we went into the main area. It was HOT, like, no air at all. And I'm not talking about the Chris Brown and Jordin Sparks song (LOL). It was honestly unbearable. With the heat wave we've been having, there's really no excuse for the AC to be struggling that much. Other than that, we had a great time, and I'd definitely come back. I just hope management sees this and gets the air conditioning fixed because it would make the experience so much better.

It also has large windows overlooking the water as well as outdoor seating. We had our end of year staff celebration here. We had a small buffet of finger goofs that were realy good as well as happy hour drink specials. For a while, we had the space to ourselves but as it got later it got more busy. Eventually security had to monitor the lidt because the ended up being some fighting over it. Staff was ok. They gave conflicting information about their policies. Overall it was an okay experience. I would definitely go again.

How did I not know TAP Sports Bar existed?…read more TAP is basically what happens when a stadium, a fryer, and a casino have a baby; loud, chaotic, and somehow exactly what you needed. I was fully invested in the Duke game because if they won, my bestie would be back in DC. So yes, I was out here cheering for the Boozer brothers like I was trying to get their mama a plane ticket. Not wanting to deal with the National Harbor side, my friend suggested TAP and honestly, clutch move. The struggle: a 30-45 minute wait for a table. The plot twist: the to‑go line was just as long, and they'll shut it down if the kitchen gets overwhelmed. But it was available. The pivot: the outdoor area was wide open. No bar, no servers, no crowd, just sunshine and empty plush seating and tables. So outside it is. This worked perfectly because we both weren't drinking! We ordered at the bar, grabbed our food, and watched the game outside like VIPs who chose peace over chaos. Inside: TVs everywhere, sports blasting, people yelling at screens like the players owed them money. It's chaotic in the best possible way. Service was friendly but slow but still, the staff somehow kept the whole place running like a well‑oiled machine in the middle of a sports‑fueled tornado. Final verdict: Come hungry, come casual, and come patient. TAP is fun, filling, and exactly the kind of place you go when you want comfort food with zero pretension. Now... let's get into it! I went straight for the TAP Burger, as any self‑respecting burger monster would. And honestly? It understood the assignment. Juicy, messy (in a sexy way), and stacked like it's trying to win a televised food competition. The fries were crispy little overachievers, especially impressive considering they were trapped in a plastic container. No pics because to go food isn't picture worthy out of the containers. Highly recommend. This is officially my new spot for all things sports. Plus, free parking. A no‑brainer. Find me here on game days! Perfect outdoor place to be!

There's fun old fashioned wallpaper but with updated booths and tables. The food was hit or miss for us. We enjoyed their jalapeño cornbread with orange butter and their smash burger sliders. They had crispy edges, nicely toasted buns and yummy melted cheese. But our entrees weren't as successful. The steak and cheese was more of a shredded beef sandwich. And the pesto pasta was really overcooked. The one entree we did like was their pork shank. It was really tender, fall off the bone and flavorful. I would come back for their caramelized banana split. Boy, was that good! I love the banana cooked this way with corn flakes, vanilla ice cream, hot fudge, chocolate chips and whipped cream. Delicious!!

I visited Mason Social for brunch back in April on a beautiful spring day, and it was such a cute,…read morequaint spot. The atmosphere was pleasant, relaxed, and inviting, with house music, jazz, and R&B playing throughout brunch, which really added to the overall vibe. The décor and ambiance felt both functional and elegant without trying too hard, and it perfectly complemented the laid-back energy of the space. The food was very good overall. My only suggestion would be adding a steak sauce option and perhaps mashed potatoes or sweet potatoes to better complement the steak and eggs entrée. Our server was helpful but they may need more staff for brunch as he was quite busy but he was great! The bottomless mimosas were delicious, bubbly, and definitely worth it. I'd absolutely return again, especially to experience the dinner atmosphere.

The restaurant has a huge bar right in the middle, loud music playing, and even an outdoor patio and bar area. However, neither space seemed to have much energy or many people. The vibe just felt...flat. I will say the music did improve as the night went on. Initially, the playlist wasn't really my cup of tea, but once they started mixing in some 90s and 2000s R&B and Hip-Hop, things got a lot better. That's when my friends and I started dancing in our seats, singing along, and creating our own entertainment while other patrons stared at us like we had landed from another planet. Sorry y'all, some of us came to have a good time. Now, I will give credit where credit is due. The service was really good. The staff was attentive, friendly, and kept checking on us throughout the evening. The decor wasn't bad either. It leaned heavily into the Mexican Day of the Dead theme, which I actually liked. The restaurant had personality and the design was much more interesting than the atmosphere. Even the restrooms were nice, although they felt like they were located in another zip code. Be prepared for a little walk. Now let's discuss the food...or maybe let's not. We ordered chips, salsa, guacamole, and chicken nachos. The guacamole was the clear winner and the only thing I genuinely enjoyed. The salsa tasted off and wasn't for me at all. As for the nachos? Absolutely not. Nasty. I don't know what happened there, but they were a complete miss for me. The funny part is that Diablo's wasn't even our first choice. We had just come from a 90s party and were a little underdressed for where we originally wanted to go. That spot had a stricter dress code, so we settled for Diablo's instead. Would I return? Probably not. Even if I'm already at MGM, there are several other spots I'd choose first for better food, better energy, and a better overall experience. The service and decor were solid, but they couldn't save the food or the vibe. Ratings: Vibe: 2/5 Decor: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Music: 3/5 Food: 1/5 Total Score: 3.0/5
