    Chips and Guacamole
    Angela W.

    My friend and I decided to try out Treehouse since we were in the area. I'll start with the positives, my food was actually pretty good. The carne asada tacos hit, and the guacamole was yum although the chips were high seasoned. Our waiter was very patient when taking our orders and attentive. He gets 5 stars! Overall though, I wasn't super impressed. The décor is clearly going for a Tulum vibe, but it felt more basic than expected, maybe TikTok overhyped it a bit. The music selection on our side was lacking, although there are two different sections playing different music, so you can drift between the two depending on the vibe you're looking for. The drink menu is MUCH larger than the food menu, which I found interesting. At the end of the day, it feels like expensive Mexican food with a social media aesthetic. Not sure if I'll return, but I did enjoy trying it out.

    Happy hour

    Excellent spot for happy hour, especially on a day with lovely weather. My friend said happy hour is ALL day on Monday! They accommodated our large group of ~14 people easily on the patio without a reservation. Plenty of both indoor and outdoor seating. I ordered a passion fruit margarita which was both strong and delicious. The service is not the most attentive but didn't sour our experience. It's a nicely decorated place with a lot of plants and the sunset view on the rooftop patio was great. Also the hotel it's located in seems super swanky.

    Came for an industry happy hour which led to evening dinner and a quick nightcap. Watching the sunset over noma was breathtaking. The space is on the roof of the ground floor hotel space, with the entrance and elevator access being of the side parking and not exclusively New York Ave. The tacos and guacamole were so fresh and tasty and the drinks were just as refreshing. Our group was a bit large so the bartender took awhile fulfilling drink orders, but the kitchen staff was fast and the servers very attentive. Great evening ambiance

    Stopped by when in the area since it was a nice day out. Instantly greeted with a warm smile and menu showcasing happy hour deals. There is indoor seating, a bar, and small rooftop outside. There isn't too much of a view. The interior attempts for a Tulum vibe. Food options were basic for vegetarians. One cauliflower taco on the HH menu. HH pricing was good. $3.50 tacos. Drink specials. Most were dressed very casual, but found it odd to see a random couple walking in with a grocery bag of items and sit on the roof wearing shorts & flip flops. Kinda brought the vibe of the place down. Apparently they are regulars there? I guess it's a mixed bag given it's part of the hotel and can draw all types. Perhaps later in the night it's a fancier feel? Overall maybe ok for a quick drink, but not a place I'd dress up for and wait in line.

    Meh at best.Came here with girlfriends after an event. Service was solid; they honored our reservation, accommodated our large group, and were patient even though we were late. No complaints there. Totally appreciated that! Food? Forgettable. Chips and guac were way too salty. Carne asada was just okay. Nothing stood out. The decor is trying hard for a Tulum vibe but feels fake. Rooftop views are nice, but the patio was closed because of the cold weather. Music was bad, and there were random people walking around, making the whole place just feel WEIRD!!! Overall, the vibe just wasn't it. Not terrible, just not "my cup of tea". 100% wouldn't return.

    Cauliflower taco, chicken taco, beef taco

    My childhood friends and I set a goal to get together once a month, and this month's plan was happy hour. Since I'm on a mission to check out every spot in Union Market, I suggested Treehouse Rooftop--and it was a solid choice The happy hour menu isn't huge, but it has some really good options. They offer three tacos: beef, chicken, and cauliflower. The cauliflower taco was hands-down my favorite (thank you to our server for the recommendation!), followed by the beef. The chicken was a bit dry, but overall the food was still enjoyable. For drinks, we all went with the passion fruit margarita--no complaints there My friends tried the birria tacos along with chicken and beef tacos, and everyone was happy with both the food and drinks. Service really stood out. We were the only ones there for the first 20-30 minutes, but even as more people arrived, our server stayed friendly, attentive, and welcoming--always a plus. The rooftop itself is a good size, and when the weather's nice, the outdoor seating adds plenty of extra space. The decor is simple but on-theme and works well for the vibe. Pricing is another win: tacos were under $4 each, and happy hour drinks ranged from $8-$10, which feels very fair for the area (and refreshing when happy hour actually means a deal). Overall, a great spot for happy hour with friends--especially if you're exploring Union Market

    Chicken tacos
    Terrell R.

    This is a fairly nice rooftop spot located in Northeast DC. The aesthetics are excellent, it's got a greenery/ jungle scene type of energy and the skyline views and outdoor seating are excellent. I was visiting on a Thursday evening during happy hour, it was packed but they've got a decent amount of seating between the bar, inside tables, and the patio seating. The happy hour menu featured 3 taco options chinichurri beef, chili-roasted cauliflower, and grilled chicken ($3.50 each) and cocktails like palomas, passionfruit margaritas, and classic margaritas ($9 each). I ordered a passionfruit margarita and a couple of grilled chicken tacos. Service was excellent the bartenders were attentive and made some really well balanced cocktails. The tacos came out quickly and were better than I anticipated: great presentation, fresh toppings, and the chicken was flavorful and tender. All in all great experience and definitely would recommend as one of the more enjoyable rooftop atmosphere's in the city.

    Mahi Mahi tacos! So freaking good.
    Diana K.

    I was pleasantly surprised with my experience at the Treehouse Rooftop. We were staying at Hotel Nell and received a drink voucher so we decided to check it out. Everything was on point. We sat at the bar had margarita and some of the best tacos ever. I'm not exaggerating. These tacos were a 10/10. They come in orders of 3 and are your typical street style taco, 2-3 bites. The Mahi were my favorites followed by the chicken. They ran out of the carne asada ones. I bet those were yummy too. My least favorite were the Birria, but they were still tasty. I only wish they had a homemade hot sauce. Street tacos usually come with a salsa verde type sauce and something spicy. We had to settle for Tabasco and Cholula. Can't wait to check them out when the weather nice and the outdoor patio is open. High five to our bartender Chris. He took great care of us!!!

    I thought this venue was pretty cute! I enjoyed being in this space, and it was not as noisy as I expected. I went here for a private event, so I cannot judge the service fairly. But things were just okay in my opinion. I tried some food and cocktail, and I thought they were just alright. I'm glad to try as this place was on my bucket list for the longest time. I wouldn't rush coming back anytime soon, but I would be open to try again.

    Treehouse Rooftop: tacos are amazing here
    Bella J.

    It is a great spot, a bit conspicuous and with a decent view as a rooftop although it has no view of capital or anything like that. Good spot to see sunset. 1. Reservation: necessary. They are busy. 2. Drinks: very good, delicious drinks and comes out fast 3. Food: tacos were amazing. All types were great 4. Ambience: chill yet upscale. All in all, highly recommend this place.

    Park in the garage directly behind treehouse. 1st three hours are free with ticket (no validation needed) Sat on the patio, overlooking the city into hyattsville. It was a beautiful day outside and we could see for miles They have a very small happy hour menu I got 3 carne asada tacos (not hh). $18 They were just okay. The tortilla was very soggy and I prob could have used more spice Margarita and Passion fruit happy hour drinks were good

    Birria tacos were

    The ambiance has changed tremendously since my last visit, but food & customer service has remained the same. Those birria tacos hit . Come to find out the chef is from L.A....nuff said

    I had a great time here. I was really looking forward to enjoying the views from the rooftop but Mother Nature had her on plans. Nonetheless, the indoor set up was just as good. I came for happy hour and the place had just opened so I had the opportunity to sit wherever I liked. The wait staff was great and the food was excellent and reasonably price. Treehouse is in a beautiful decorated boutique hotel and it oozes great vibes. Apparently if you stay at the hotel you get a free margarita, which is a nice little bonus.

    Hey is there a happy hour here?

    When i went to visit a few weeks ago, they did not have happy hour. But I was told they were going to start exploring with wine and some beers in the coming weeks. So maybe they have it up and running now!

    Is parking available ? Cost?

For $45 per person, the all-you-can-eat experience feels like a really solid deal considering how many protein options and side dishes you get. They start you off with a variety of banchan (side dishes), including a salad with this super tasty dressing that had the perfect little spicy kick. For the BBQ, we kicked things off with the spicy bulgogi and butter garlic shrimp, while the others tried the pork belly (I don't eat pork). Later we ordered the steak, spicy brisket, and grilled squid, which were all delicious. The spicy brisket especially was a standout for me. The guys also ordered two rounds of fried dumplings that looked amazing, but since they contain pork, I had to sit those out. I'd love to see Chadol add a veggie dumpling option to the menu! As for the sides, the kimchi and cold glass noodles were both hits at our table, and of course we all added white rice. The "mashed potatoes" though? Definitely more like potato salad and unfortunately very bland. On the other hand, the cheese corn costs extra but is 1000% worth adding. For drinks, the guys enjoyed the Woody Old Fashioned while I had a mezcal margarita-style cocktail that was smoky and refreshing. We also ordered one of the chicken options but never received it and eventually just gave up on it. One of the coolest parts of the experience is the ordering system. Most meats are ordered directly from a machine at your table, and the food comes out quickly on this conveyor belt-style setup which was honestly so fun. Drinks and side dishes are ordered through the servers. The atmosphere was lively and energetic without feeling overwhelming. The restaurant is actually much larger inside than I expected, with a modern setup that works well for smaller groups. That said, I didn't really notice tables for larger parties, so I'm not sure how they accommodate groups bigger than 6 people. Service started off a little rough because our server wasn't very attentive, but after I called it out, he definitely stepped it up and things improved. Overall, Chadol was a really good experience and absolutely worth the price. The 1.5-hour seating limit makes sense too, both to keep things moving and give others a chance to enjoy the experience. I'd definitely go back!

My one complaint is the wine glasses were so teeny. Overall though, I would recommend this bar. Bonus: cheese balls when you sit down! I believe there is also a limited food menu (think nachos) for the after work or late night crowd.
