Had a great time on a Thursday evening at Pinstripes! We came during happy hour and ordered a few beers, the pretzel bites, the sliders, and later had the hummus and the fries. I think the happy hour menu is all phenomenal. $5 beers and $10 food? I'm not sure you can find that many other places. The sliders were excellent and I would highly recommend them. The pretzel bites were very similar to ones you'd find at the mall. The hummus was plentiful and healthy. I'd skip the fries next time, but that's just me! Service was friendly and prompt. Definitely an excellent date night!

This was such a cool place. I brought a student travel group there - 30 people total. We had our own private room and they served us food family style. We had pasta and pizza. Once we finished eating we had one hour to play a game of bowling. We got three lanes to play. It was one of the best nights of our trip.

Assortment of food
Peter D.

I'll leave a positive note! Although I'm still confused whether to consider Pinstripes as a restaurant? Bar? I was impressed by the quality of service and how spacious the entire space was. I went here for a reception and although the food quality was what you expect at a place like this, the employees were super nice and I had a great time.

Crispy Calamari
Erin D.

Came to bowl, have drinks and light bites and catch up with a friend! The service was good, very quick and attentive, the ambiance was fun and lively yet chill and elevated. A great meet up place and I loved the general area of this location! Also not pictured were fries and sweet chili wings! Great flavor and portion! I really enjoyed the cook and size of the calamari and my drink was great! Would definitely be back

*****Happy hour review***** Stopped by for HH before attending an event upstairs at Pinstripes. Had about 10 minutes until HH ended and our bartender/waiter was on it! They have quite a few tables around the bar and stools lining the bar itself. Ordered a glass of pinot grigio ($5) and the chicken avocado club flatbread ($10), which were both great deals. My glass of wine was quite refreshing and the pour was generous. I really enjoyed the flatbread (glad I listened to our waiter and didn't get the pizza version). It was perfectly crispy (not too crunchy) and came topped with a decent amout of bacon, avocado, roasted onions, and tomatoes. I also tried some of the crispy calamari (pretty good) and truffle fries ( this was a no - too crispy and not enough truffle). Pinstripes is overall a good place to head to for HH when in Georgetown.

Pinstripes is by far is one of THE best Brunch spots in DC! We have absolutely pleased whenever we have gone. They have a wide variety of food, seating has always been available and the price point is one of the best! I'll be checking them out again soon.

Pepperoni pizza
Maria K.

They accommodated our large ~20 person party very well. Our server was great and handled everyone's food and drink orders well. Food can be hit or miss though, I actually really enjoyed the pepperoni pizza, but another friend thought her pasta dish was quite bland and didn't want to finish it. We didn't play any games but bowling and bocce are available.

Alex P.

Food and drinks were good but the prices were a bit steep for the portion sizes. Predominantly the calamari. We got maybe 10 pieces for $18. The flatbread $18 with just chunks of tomato and cheese. My lemon martini was great. Overall the food is good but the prices are a bit high in my opinion.

Katelyn L.

We had a great little afternoon here! The food was pretty good. It's definitely a more expensive bowling experience. I was comparing it a lot to top golf in how it's designed!

Brussels Sprouts
Jé S.

We had a great time at Pinstripes! The food was delicious and the bowling was a blast. Our server could use some improvement, but overall, it was a fantastic outing. Would definitely recommend!

Nick M.

We had great family fun for our first experience here. I actually came here with my girlfriend and her two young nieces, and we had a super experience with everything. This is definitely the most high end bowling alley that I've ever been to. The fact that they have a full bar, as well as, a high end restaurant that features a buffett makes this bowling alley uniquely different. The only thing missing would be an extensive playground for kids. We spent the majority of our two hours strictly in the bowling alley. We had our own snacks, but we really would have loved to try out the buffet. We came on a Sunday and there really weren't that many people, I think about two thirds of the lanes were being used. The restaurant and the bar also had very few customers. I wouldn't mind checking out this place on a Saturday night.

Late night happy hour menu
Liv W.

The idea of late night happy hour is awesome. I mean $5 glasses of wine and draft beer is a really good deal! And $5 bowling and bocce? Amazing! But the food is less than ideal and the service during "late hours" is slow. I was very happy with my wine and truffle fries. You get a large portion, though $12 is a bit much. But nonetheless! The margherita flatbread wasn't great. And we waited quite a long time for it too. Just a lot of tomato and because the flatbread wasn't fully cooked, everything came off the second you picked up a slice. Like a soggy mess. Our service was fine. We had to go to the bar and we asked if we could go to the high tops. We were told sure. So we went to the high top and finally after waiting 15 minutes we gave up and sat at the bar. I know the bartender was cleaning up and wanting to leave, but it was 8:30 and they close at 10. I totally get it--I've been in service! But at the same time, we knew what we wanted and would be no trouble. I mean even the other guy at the bar commented on how slow service was despite the fact that the place was extremely empty. So that's slightly frustrating--but I'm happy to yap and talk for awhile so I didn't think much on it. But if you want quick service, *late night happy hour* might not be the ideal time. Ambiance and vibes were fine. Next time I'll only come for the drinks and the $5 bowling--which again is an awesome deal! I think their deals are awesome but if no one is willing to keep up with these deals, it might be a waste.

Ardy R.

Fabulous!! This is a HUGE restaurant that we came across while playing tourist in DC. It was GREAT! We sat at the bar and enjoyed their Happy Hour Menu. We got the sliders, the ribs and the cheese curds (all were delicious). Plus I tried the Paloma (so refreshing) and hubby had a beer. Anton was the perfect waiter. We both agree that we would absolutely return here if we had more time. Total was only $56 + tip. A bargain, especially for Georgetown!

The interior of the restaurant is stunning. The big pink chandelier was a beautiful design element and the rest of the interior follows suit with gorgeous gold accents. We did not make reservations but luckily they had an opening around 6:30pm, keep in mind this was also during the week but would highly recommend reservations as more guests arrived later in the night. Our server, was amazing! I did not get her name but she has brunette hair and she was so attentive and just the sweetest. She answered all of our questions regarding what her favorite dish was and provided recommendations. She also gave us some complimentary mango flavored drinks from the bar which was so refreshing. We ended up ordering the following: ISLA oxtail patties, Grilled Lamb chops, Bara with goat curry, fried snapper and a side of Mac Pie. The oxtail patties were absolutely delicious with the mango pepper sauce and nicely seasoned. It comes with 3 patties which is enough to share with two people. The grilled lamb chops were also good but the sauce took it to the next level. I will be honest, I had more high hopes for the fried snapper. It was good but not as flavorful as I thought it would be. It comes with a small side of the escovitch which compliments it but maybe it's missing something additional. My friend had more of the curry goat Bara which was also nicely seasoned with the piece I tried. I'm a Mac and cheese gurly, so I loved the Mac Pie. It has a slight smoky and sweet flavor which I enjoyed. We were stuffed after all this food so unfortunately didn't get dessert but would love to try another time. Our bill came up to $200 which was I believe a wonderful deal for the amount of food, and amazing service and ambience. It was great to see diversity in the guests that enjoyed this delicious Caribbean cuisine. There was no long wait for our food and I even had leftovers which they boxed up for me. I 10/10 recommend experiencing ISLA!

We ordered the oysters, tempura okra, grilled prawns, fried snapper, and fried brussels sprouts. The oysters were surprisingly bland, especially considering they came with a scotch bonnet mignonette. I really enjoyed the flavor profile of the tempura okra, though it was a bit soggy. Not sure if that's intentional, but the taste itself was great. The grilled prawns and fried snapper were just okay. We both felt it needed a little more seasoning. And the brussel sprouts were also pretty bland. A scoop of sorbet was brought out for my birthday and that was great. Overall I was a bit shocked at the blandness and lack of flavor considering this place is supposed to be caribbean inspired. I'll likely come back just for the drinks!

Of course my friend is a member and if I'm lucky, someday I will be too. It started off as I walked up the sidewalk and approached the club, the doorman was standing on the sidewalk. As I got closer, the doorman greeted me by name! I was taken a back for a minute wondering how could he possibly know my name! I was escorted in and asked to wait in the main reception while they went to get my friend. I went into what they refer to as the "Correspondence Lounge" which is sort of a small library with some incredibly old literary works. They have very strict rules and one of surprise is no use of cell phones... period. How refreshing! You can go into the Correspondence Lounge if you need to use your phone but otherwise you cannot use while in the dining room or other public areas. So make sure you "check-in" on Yelp when you are outside. Naturally they have a dress code, but really, if you have to ask what the dress code is, you probably aren't going to this place. Another rule I was surprised is they try to keep business limited so you cannot bring out a bunch of papers, laptop, etc... The only papers you can hold would have to be a newspaper or a book. Once seated, the service is impeccable. Extremely polite and not overbearing. They knew when we were engrossed in conversation and didn't interrupt. I had the lump crab cake for dinner and it was without a doubt the BEST! I lived in Virginia for five years and went to college at George Washington so I'm quite familiar with East Coast seafood and I can honestly say the lump crab at the Metropolitan Club is the BEST! I could go on about this place but simply put, if you have the opportunity to go, don't pass that opportunity up for what will end up being one of the greatest dining experiences of your life.
