“Amazonia is a great bar/restaurant. Daniel was a great server and recommended great veggie options. The food and drinks came out promptly with great presentation and the upstairs staff was all really friendly. Can’t say the same for the downstairs hostess who wouldn’t let me go up to Amazonia without asking her and then couldn’t find my reservation after asking me the details 3 times and not being able to pull it up. After she pulled it up she said none of my party was there even though everyone but me was there. Maybe it’s a communication thing between upstairs and downstairs but for such an expensive restaurant, the hostess shouldn’t try and fight you as you’re walking in.“
“We did the tatami chef tasting menu. It was waaay too much food for 2 people. We had to take home the last few plates because we definitely couldn’t eat any more. It includes 2 desserts, I don’t have pictures of the “ponderaciones de kiwicha”.“
“My wife and I had dinner on our anniversary and the food and service was outstanding. The menu is full of outstanding options and the atmosphere and vibe is great for date night or dinner with friends. Definitely one of the best restaurants in DC!“
“Delicious food. Fast and friendly service. Great prices. Portions are generous. We typically get the whole chicken with 3 sides and it's enough for two people to have dinner and leftovers for lunch the next day. Perfect for busy weeknights.We were devastated when Huacatay closed, but we're very relieved that once again there is top notch chicken again. Highly recommend.“
“While I haven't visited this restaurant in-person, my orders through GrubHub have been on point!! The chicken is flavorful and seasoned well, and juicy. The sides are filling and are also very good. I got the brussel sprouts and fries. The brussel sprouts are coated with a carmelized type of ingredient that packs a big much. The only negative about them is that they are usually pretty big which makes it hard to eat them whole like normal sized ones, so keep a knife handy to cut them smaller. The fries were also very good. I must say the sauces are probably the best I've had out of all similar chicken spots, especially the green sauce!! Oh my, my, my!!! I just had them for lunch today and I'm really contemplating on ordering them for dinner - they are just that good!“
“BEST FOOD of our entire visit. I don't care how far away you are, this is worth the drive, the uber, the taxi, whatever. The flavors are unlike anything else you can find and the thought of this restaurant makes me hungry all over again. If I were to only eat at one place for the rest of my life it would be this one. Call it hyperbole, but eat there and tell me that I'm wrong. You're gonna look at me and tell me that I'm wrong?? She came down in bubble, Doug. Grow up. And please try this.“
“I visited Chicken + Whiskey for the first time recently after hearing great things about it for years. I don't know why it's taken me this long to visit. The 14th St location has a fast casual chicken spot in the front and a "hidden" whiskey bar in the back, behind a commercial freezer door. I visited for happy hour on a Friday at 5 PM and we were the first people there. We enjoyed the cocktails and food, especially with the happy hour discount. Happy hour runs Mon-Fri, 5-7 PM and includes $2 off all beers and arepas, $3 off all cocktails and sanguiches/wraps, $9 pisco punch, and $15 beer + wings combo. We had the Pisco Punch, Squash It, and Sweater Weather cocktails which were all tasty and $9/$10 on happy hour. We got the wings and beer combo and the Borracho Wrap, recommended by the bartender. The wings were good if a little dry, and actually came with all 3 sauces on the side. The wrap ($10.25 on HH) was excellent, the perfect balance of textures and flavors. Very impressed. Service was quick and friendly. Overall, we had good experience, but there are a couple opportunities to improve. The cocktails were clearly fall cocktails and out of season now that it's April. The beer + wings combo was a bit disappointing because it was only for the Tecate beer (not any beer). The 3.75% surcharge is also unwelcome. Finally, for a first timer, the food/drinks situation was a little confusing. Before visiting, we thought we would be able to order from the full menu at the back bar, but it actually has a limited food menu. Then, the door to the bar has a sign saying you can't take food and drinks back and forth between the front chicken shop and back bar, which gave us pause. The happy hour menu mentions a discount on "sanguiches" but the main drinks/food menu doesn't use this term. And while the menu design is very stylish, it's also very busy and a little hard to fully read and parse.“
“The food is tasty and always serviced with a smile. I've been here for take out and the staff is always friendly. Sometimes I'll wait for a few minutes while they cook my food and it's always a joy to watch them. They recently started a chicken and side special on Wednesday night that I look forward to. It's a great way to get some delicious chicken without getting the whole bird.“
“Got the 1/4 chicken and 2 sides. Chicken was fantastic! Great flavor even on the white meat, not dry at all. Side were tasty really liked the Brussels. They had the real Madrid game on, but the atmosphere was nice, family friendly. Star was very helpful.“
“Kudos to Byron and the staff behind the bar for their impeccable service! This place is my go to for brunch and happy hour so I was happy to return for brunch and even more happier with my meal selections. The ambiance is perfect for date night, drinks with coworkers, or friends-it welcomes all! I regularly order tostones because they're so succulent and once again, it did not miss! The lechon hash was a new order: braised pork, ají panca, onions, crispy potatoes, and poached egg (menu description) This dish packed so many flavors! The braised pork was perfectly seasoned and the sauce covered the crispy potatoes without making them soggy, it was like culinary magic! What I didn't like was the poached egg because it was hard lol so hard that it rolled off the potatoes when I touched it. Dessert was my all time fav, the con leche cheesecake and as always, that was a hit! The sangria is worth the buy every time as are their mimosas. I absolutely love this place and highly recommend them for quality food and drinks.“
