The Fried Chicken & Waffles is one of the most delicious things I have eaten in a very long time! The crust was so perfectly seasoned and crunchy. It was the perfect balance between slightly sweet & spicy. The chicken was boneless, and perfectly cooked - aka not dry at all. The waffle was more on the softer side, and it came with maple syrup. I also got a cardamom bun that was so delicious. Soft on the inside, and had the spiced sugar on the outside. I don't see cardamom buns often at all, so had to get it while staying at the Line. Breakfast was so delicious that my friend and I had to get the same thing the next day. I was very sad though that my Fried chicken & waffles was not nearly as delicious as it was the first time I got it. The chicken wasn't nearly as crunchy and that really threw off the whole dish for me. Actually, the bottom was soggy and t wasn't dry but a bit rubbery. It was harder to cut through some parts so I was constantly checking if each piece was cooked through (it was). It was much busier on Monday (memorial day) morning than on Sunday, so maybe that's why it wasn't as good.. My friend got the sunrise breakfast on both days and she said they were both equally delicious. For breakfast, you order at the cafe in the front and they bring your food. Service was friendly, and the food took about 20 minutes to come out. read more

This is a really unique place. The drinks are good and the food is even better. I recommend trying the fried green tomatoes that come with a dusting of paprika-red "rib rub" and a side of spicy cheese made with a Maryland white cheddar. This is a tasty snack. read more

No Goodbyes has a relaxed location and a chef who is passionate about locally grown food.  The staff was very, very friendly and helpful which also made the meal relaxing and enjoyable.  The appetizer of ember -roasted sweet potatoes was so much more than expected.  This clearly shows the kitchen's love of and facility with vegetables as did the comfortingly cheesy ramp malfadini.  Both dishes were tasty with an added bit of heat or crunch that made them stand out.  It was a shame that the entrees and the dessert lacked this great flavor kick.  The pork belly was good but would have really benefitted from more of that mustard and the brisket was not as tender as hoped and seemed to have an odd bit of a chemical taste.  Again, we wished the BBQ and other sauces had been more bold.  The semi-fredo dessert also lacked flavor except for one or two bites that seemed to have a concentration of something that made it so much better before it went back to bland.  So, what started off with a delicious bang, slowly washed out into a whimper.  Again, we really appreciated the human element of the evening as well as the location.  Maybe we just need to request that the kitchen kick it up a notch if we return for another dinner. read more

The restaurant bar in the lobby of The Line hotel never fails me. We've moved from Adams Morgan, but tonight we are back for dinner and the BEST NEGRONI IN TOWN. These guys make their own blend of Red Vermouth, so the balance of the cocktail is absolutely perfect. I miss the top floor restaurant, and feel it's what's missing from this part of town. It's a bit crazy that the restaurant could not run most of the year, and be closed for bookings (weddings, parties, anything) from time to time. read more

Three friends and I had a startlingly bad time at No Goodbyes. We were hoping to have a special dinner with a friend who was in town, so we made a reservation for 8:00. We were told to have a seat by someone at the front of the hotel, but and no one came by until about 8:20 to give us water. We had to wait quite a bit more time to order drinks, and another long time to order food. The server seemed sort of surprised we were there and didn't know the short ribs were out until about ten minutes after I ordered them, so two of us ended up getting the chicken, and the other two people got "delicious salads" with chicken. Those two people felt the salads were underwhelming but not bad; however, the chicken entrée was so overcooked (overcooked meat and burnt skin) that we were unable to cut through it with steak knives. I wanted to tell someone about this, but no one checked on us for 25-30 minutes, and there were no staff members in view. When someone finally came by, the two people with salads were finished with their meals, but those of us with chicken hadn't been able to eat anything but potatoes. I demonstrated how you couldn't even saw through the chicken with a very sharp knife, and the person who checked on us (not our server) was kind enough to take the meals off of the bill, but at this point it was close to 10:00 and too late to order anything else. It was just a really bad experience, and I went home pretty hungry and tired. read more

Good lunch But $7 for a coke? I had the burger- very good Great fries. Also a nice location inside the line hotel. read more

Swanky and quiet place- great for dinner with friends or a date! Food was great, highly recommend the Bibb salad, beets, rockfish, and bacon steak. All were delish and enjoyed by our table! Cocktails were good- especially the large format that came in a big drink dispenser. Service left a little to be desired- we waited for A WHILE to order a second round of drinks. read more

No Goodbyes certainly has an interesting vibe. It's a coffee shop vibe during the day and it turns into more of a full service restaurant at night. The large building with high ceilings is an old church and the seating is a combination of tables, couches and booths. We arrived for the end of happy hour (3-5pm) on a weekday and got a glass of house wine. We intended on eating dinner but decided to go elsewhere since it still felt more like a coffee shop with a lot of people working on their laptops. I saw someone munching on the charcuterie board which looked pretty good but I can't speak to the rest of the food. If you're looking for a more informal vibe for dinner or a good place to work from home at any hour of the day this might be a good place to check out--there is even some outdoor seating in front of the building. read more

Really amazing bartenders with exceptional drinks - order at the bar and you can bring the drinks outside to tables on the front steps. The outside area is quite pleasant, though occasionally noisy. You carry your drinks out, but food ordered at the bar can be brought to your outdoor table. The catfish hushpuppies may be the best hushpuppies I've ever had, packed with lots of flavor and soft (not chewy). The oysters are also quite tasty. read more

They used to have a decent menu but now it's just bar food. The line hotel used to be a fun place but this last time I went it felt dead.

One of a kind upscale experience, respect to the Chef. Very welcoming and friendly staff!! Bartender visited our table and helped us creatively craft our drinks!! We stayed at the hotel too so we could get extra drinks!! I wish they had some background music tho!! read more

Wow what a phenomenal dinner. Such good vibes all around! This restaurant is located in The Line hotel and the decor and ambience were just lovely. The must try's for food are the oysters (not pictured) which were so fresh and delicious, the shishito peppers, the beets and berries, the wood fired 1/2 chicken, and this fantastic rhubarb ginger cocktail. The menu is farm to table and seasonal so we will 1000% be coming back to try other items on the menu! read more

Had a wonderful dinner at no goodbyes the other week. We started with some cocktails: I got the "it's springtime somewhere" with Jen, kumquat, egg white, and lemon served in a coupe glass. It was super refreshing and the perfect spring cocktail. My friend went nonalcoholic and got the blackberry shrub which was also very refreshing they have a few nonalcoholic cocktail options for those who are interested. Our first course was the sweet potatoes with the campfire cream. I thought they were good but they didn't knock my socks off. The ramp malfadini, however, was absolutely astonishing. I love ramps and they really use them perfectly in this dish. It was super rich but highly worth it. Next we had the pork belly with grits which was also very good and the brisket with homemade tater tots and creamed greens. Finally for dessert we tried the Carolina gold rice ice cream which was very tasty but the brittle that it came with was the most memorable part. A solid mid Atlantic Meal. I really like that they try to source all of their ingredients from local and regional purveyors. read more

Saturday, 30 mins after dinner service, a part of 2 walked in. "Hi. table for two." response: "oh, I'm so sorry, we are fully booked today." Not a single table is taken on floor one or two. "but you can sit at the bar" We get to a bar, and no seats are available. You know what, maybe do not turn people away when you are literally empty... Managers, take note. We went two blocks west to Lapis - a packed place, still got a sit-down table. In-out in 35 mins, 3-course meal for two. "We are fully booked" with not a single table taken - extremely shitty. Will not be back, even if booking ahead of time. Cheers. read more

I had a pretty disappointing dinner here, especially considering the price. Service was poor and food was mediocre. I was especially bummed because I came here for a fancy dinner while my parents were in town. I kept thinking while we were eating that we could have gone to so many other better places just down the street that are substantially cheaper. I've enjoyed the coffee and pastries here, but the dinner menu was a huge let down. I would stick to the cafe for coffee, but don't bother with the dinner. read more

I had drinks last weekend with my sister at this fabulous bar. After our very excellent cocktails, we had a flight of house made concoctions unique to this establishment: a strawberry infused vermouth that smelled like you were standing in the middle of a strawberry field; something with port and truffles, amazingly; a house-made green chartreuse to rival the French monks, and several others. Best of all was our bartender Liam, who escorted us through this unique experience in a way both informative and entertaining. Bravo and many thanks! read more

We stayed at the Line last week for 3 days and ate breakfast, lunch, and dinner here along our stay. Everything is SO good, but the absolute highlight of our stay was Our bartender, Joe. He could not have been kinder and recommended a bunch of absolutely delicious items from the menu. The menu changes pretty frequently so I'm told, but they clearly know what they're doing with pretty much ANY type of food. We especially loved the bacon steak, the short rib, and the scallops. Also had a great BLT for lunch and a yummy sausage, egg, and cheese for breakfast! We also adored the jalapeño scone. I'm drooling just thinking about this place and can't wait to go back!! read more

I had one of the most delicious meals I've ever had in my life at No Goodbyes Restaurant. But the point I want to make from the start, is that the service you will be met with is par none. The person who leads you to your table will not simply show you where to seat. They engagingly check in with you and your day. This kind of genuine service hasn't existed in years. But the food!! I must praise the food because that is why we eat out. Wonderful things were told to me about the absolute freshness and local selection. As a matter of fact, I believe they do their own butchering on-site! As a child my mother took me to the butcher. I grew up knowing what fresh tasted like. No Goodbye Restaurant makes my palate want to say Hello--weekly!! Indulge your precious palate that has hunkered down with delivery for too long. Go get the real thing at No Goodbyes!!!! read more

Service was great, but the food was mediocre and over priced. I ordered the hash on the breakfast menu and all that came was cubbed potatoes with an egg on top. It was barely seasoned and they didn't have any hollandaise when I asked for it. This plate of potatoes was $18. I'm not sure about the other food, but my friend got the salad which was fine but nothing special. Overall, the ambiance is very cool, but it's definitely more of a coffee shop than a restaurant. read more

We went in for a nightcap after Dinner in Adam's Morgan. The Bartender is very good at his Craft. I had a Falling Citrus G&T, my Wife had a Moscow Mule the drinks were good. I really liked the the taste of my G&T bright and refreshing. The music was nice in the background, for decent conversation without yelling. Local Craft Beer selection was available. The Midnight Morning martini with Coldbrew and 3 espresso beans floated on top for garnish was a popular order, along with a Brunswick Sour with a Claret float on top. I think we are going to be back again next time we're in DC. Might try a Corpse Reviver Two the next time? read more

When you have a lot of open tables, you don't refuse when a customer wants to substitute a salad dressing on an item that is made to order. And by the way...your Gem salad is just regular greens....with a whole sh$tload of dressing....and then you forget the club soda I ordered. You poured it and then left it at the end of the bar...this review started with 3 stars and by mid way through the meal ended with one star. read more
