    Cobb Salad
    Anna G.

    Love everything about eating here. It feels like an industrial log cabin inside (yes, I said that!) and is so cozy. The salads are fabulous! Little pricy but the ingredients are great and done well. I got the Cobb salad. The sun dried tomatoes and bacon were especially good, and the portion of the bowl was huge.

    Nice place to grab a quick bite after the game! You must try the loaded cheese fries! Definitely a guilty pleasure if your willing to cheat on your diet! I also have the French dip sandwich. The first batch was super heavy in Rosemary but wants it was pointed out they quickly addressed it and provided a second batch. And it was out of this world! The restaurant definitely provides laid-back Brewery vibes. Feel free to bring a deck of cards and hang out with friends after the game or on a weekend afternoon.

    I ate at Bluejacket with my parents and boyfriend on a Friday night in June. The restaurant appeared almost entirely booked on Open Table, but when we got there, the place was not busy at all. If you ever run into a situation where the time slot you want is not available online, my advice would be to call the restaurant and have them set up your reservation. The menu was simple enough for my parents, who get thrown off my small-plate restaurants. The four entrees ordered were the scallops, two burgers, and the [whitefish]. We started with the mussels. All of the food came out very quickly and was super delicious. Our table also ordered a couple beers. My father, who doesn't drink much, even ordered one of the "tasting pours" to try. Overall, the food, service and atmosphere was great. I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Navy Yard and certainly for folks who prefer entrees over share/small plates.

    Mumbo Chicken Sandwich

    This past Friday I came to Bluejacket for the first time prior to the Nationals game. Bluejacket is located in the heart of The Yards next to the Washington Navy Yard. There is both inside and outside seating at this restaurant. Since it was a hot day I chose to sit inside. My waiter did a good job explaining both the menu and the in house brewery options. To start I tried a couple of the signature brews "for the company." It was on the lighter side, but had great flavor. For my meal I ordered the Mumbo chicken sandwich. The piece of chicken was huge! The mumbo sauce made it very messy, but gave it a ton of flavor. It also came with fries. Once I finished those I was stuffed. Before tip my bill came to just under $30. For the amount of food you get and for being in DC the prices are incredibly reasonable. The restaurant/brewery was clean and well taken care of. You can get here either by metro or if you are driving there is a small amount of street parking or you can park in any number of the paid lots in and around The Yards. I was very impressed. Keep up the good work Bluejacket. I hope to be back soon the next time I catch a Nationals game.

    Came here without reservations for a late lunch on Father's Day. This restaurant is very spacious with high ceilings and an industrial feel. Our waiter, Connor was very attentive. We had a delicious brunch/lunch there. The fried chicken sandwich was delicious. The perfect pairing with coleslaw and sliced pickles. The piece of chicken was huge and slathered in a sweet and sour and a bit of spicy sauce. We also ordered the breakfast platter that had eggs, bacon, ham, sausage and toast. We shared the cinnamon buns and they were very tasty and freshly baked! I would definitely come back again!

    Great location to hit up after a Nationals game. Try the Mexican Radio....great flavor. Soft and silky Just make sure you pay attention to the time if you're doing a mid week baseball game....could be an expensive cab ride home. Plenty of TVs around the bar. Not a bad spot in the bar area. Decor is inviting

    So I do judge a restaurant by its salad dressings. The ones here are good, I didn't ask but I would guess they are house made. Been here a few times, and I have really liked everything. First the ambience is cool. Industrial brewery look, garage doors open in summer. The beer is great, lots of interesting kinds and a couple rotating flavors. You can get small single pours of beer so you can try multiple kinds, their version of a flight. The food is excellent. The double burger is awesome, homemade version of Big Mac. The 1/2 pound burger is delicious too, with an onion ring and other stuff on it. Yummy. Beef cooked to order which is nice. The salads are great, dressings definitely good. The porchetta sandwich is delicious, but it needs more meat to round out the meat to bread ratio. Homemade tater tots-delicious, and the fries are really good too, I don't think they are previously frozen. They even have pierogies! They were excellent. Prices are ok, a meal could run $20-25 pp if you get beer, but they don't skimp on the portions. Servers are friendly, and will do separate checks which was extremely nice.

It ended up being only four of us so the amount of food was perfect! They also had buckets at the tables with other snacks and hand sanitizer which we loved. The cocktails were INCREDIBLE. Each cold pressed juice had a different spirit in it; our favorite was the green juice with the whiskey. I also love that they use good quality spirits because I'm not hungover today! The service was unbelievable, they truly made it such a special experience for us and we can't wait to come back. The tent was warm which we were thankful for given it's getting chillier out. I also love that it's black owned and they use catering and the juices from other black owned businesses. You have to check this place out!

Dacha is a semi-outdoor beer garden across from Nat's Park and a short walk from Audi Field, making it the perfect storm to collect a massive crowd before a game. We arrived shortly before happy hour ended, about two hours before a Friday night Spirit game and were able to get a table. Dacha did fill up quickly, but with plenty of seating and an open section with standing tables in the center, there was still room to move around. With the glass walls surrounding us, we felt like we were in a garden. The noise level, while high, was not as bad as Solace, and we were still actually able to hear each other. Our server did not check on us as time went by, but she did bring us waters as soon as we were seated, which really exceeds my expectations for a beer garden. Our food and drinks arrived quickly and were super tasty. Both the flagship lager and IPA were drinks I'd order again, and as a vinho verde admirer, I appreciated having that as an option on the HH menu. While the skinny burger is delicious, the real star of the HH menu is the fried pickles, homemade and flavorful and piping hot. I'm eager to go back for another pregame and try the HH cocktail, perhaps sampling something from the regular menu as well.

Trouble Bird was the answer to my prayers on a recent trip, where I was looking to have high quality drinks and a laid-back NON-commercial vibe with my team. We liked it so much, we came twice in one week, and I was impressed at their ability to handle and be comfortable for a large group in a space that can feel intimate. The lighting is nice and moody, the menu available via QR code, and the WiFi free and listed with password for patrons to use. We had excellent service both times, by the two folks working each night for a groups of 6-8 each time. There was something for everyone from the nondrinkers to the beer enthusiasts, to cocktail aficionados like myself. There's an amazing happy hour deal, with discounts on drinks all Monday and reduced prices for a couple of hours on other weekdays; it almost felt criminal how generous the happy hour was when I've gotten used to paying $20 for a mediocre cocktail at other nearby establishments. And the cocktails here are really very good, probably the best in the area, except for their immediate next door neighbor. The group favorite cocktail was the Midori sour which was incredibly well balanced and refreshing, and the surprising crowd pleaser was the Hamilton Dry Float, which came in a creepy tiki mug presentation that we really loved. We had a couple of the bar bites - the spiced peanuts were well loved across the group but my person favorite food item was the blistered shishitos, which came with a great chipotle aioli. The bathrooms are extremely clean and overall this was a bar favorite for the group for our week of going out and socializing together. Overall this is a gem of a neighborhood hangout with really excellent cocktails and service! Will absolutely come here next time I'm in town!

The pretzel bun they brought out was over toasted and looked like it was pretty dry before that. Like it was HARD. No one came to check on us after the food arrived so I had to take my plate to the check out desk to address the issue. Cait took care of it right away; I asked for just a new bun - I don't mind swapping it out myself. But in the end the burger was still just meh. Almost forgot to mention the fries .. not great. They were salted well but the fries themselves were almost chewy. When we checked out, Cait said apologized and mentioned some staffing issues. She offered to get in touch with some sort of compensation but didn't offer to waive our one beer. We left paying full price for everything. Again, fine spot if you just wanted to hang out and drink beer.
