“This is a neighborhood bar within easy reach of DC tourists. The drinks are upper shelf and generous, the food is great. The crowd is mostly locals in this basement steak and cocktail restaurant, but I'd recommend it to anyone. I had the Greek salad with anchovies and grilled shrimp - very good.“

“Excellent beer in a basement that serves a great selection of Belgian and monk-ist beers. Beers are affordable ($8-15), especially because most of them are higher in abv. I didn't have a chance to try the food, but I'd come back to try mussels! Their menu looked intriguing. Service was a typical bar but their seating was very cool chapel pews. Bathrooms are clean and spacious. Bartender was efficient and seemed to have quite a few regulars at the bar. Overall a quiet place to have conversations! I'll be back.“

“First visit; I went for Restaurant Week. I ordered the chicken corn chowder, the short rib ravioli and the caramel cheesecake. The chowder was excellent, a great balance of corn and chicken and a goodly amount--but not too much--pepper. I loved it...and a very generous portion! The ravioli was super too--cooked to perfection, stuffed to capacity with cheese, accompanied by a nice hunk of well-seasoned and -cooked short rib. I wasn't able to finish it, so I took some home. I took the cheesecake home too and ate it after a couple of conf calls. Just the right amount of caramel with a couple of strawberries and a creme Anglaise sauce. Scrumptious!! I don't remember many occasions when I've loved all three courses of a meal, but that was certainly the case tonight. I can't wait to go back.“

“Such a nice place! The food was excellent and the drinks were great. You can tell it’s a neighborhood bar because the bartenders really knew the patrons and seemed to have a nice relationship with them. Danny the bartender is great! You can tell the workers here care about the quality of food and service they provide. Can’t wait to go back!“

“I have visited Duke's a handful of times and have really enjoyed it every time. The food is always delicious and the fresh squeezed orange juice is perfection. You really can't go wrong ordering anything on the menu but I do highly recommend the Proper Breakfast Sarnie or the Proper Burger. Chef's kiss is what those two things are.Side note, I often like to point out restaurants I think are great for 1st, 2nd, or 3rd dates. In my personal opinion, breakfast is the best time for a date because you are at your most energized, breakfast is super casual so less stress, and a post-breakfast stroll around the park getting to know each other is perfect. I would highly recommend Duke's for a 3rd date.“

“The food was good, and so were the drinks. The servers were all very nice and personable, though it could be hard to get their attention. The space had cool vibes but it was a bit hard to find a place to sit, especially since the outside area (we went on a cold and drizzly day so we wanted to stay inside) takes up about half the space.“

“On St. Patrick's Day, my mom wanted green beer, so we went to The Barking Dog. The gastropub was filled with sports fanatics. Since alcoholic drinks weren't permitted in the patio area, we were seated at a booth near the bathroom. My brother had an O'Doul's, my fiancé had a Crooked Crab Haze for Days Pale Ale, my parent shared a New Trails Crisp Lager (dyed green), and I had a Green Tea Cocktail. We shared an order of Pub Pretzels, which was served warm and with a spicy cheese dipping sauce.“

“I arrived solo and somehow felt out of place. My drink was amazing. Ordered 12 wings with 2 different flavors but I couldn't tell if they were actually 2 different flavors because they tasted the same. Neither was the flavor I ordered. Then again, I'm from Memphis, TN home of south and flavor is a must. According to reviews I was excited to go but unfortunately it was not a friendly environment in my opinion. My drink was good though.“

“Met up for happy hour with friends. We made a reservation via Resy but when we arrived it was not in their system. They still helped us find a table though. The atmosphere was pretty nice and the servers were relatively attentive. Happy hours prices were still relatively high, but I suppose that is normal for DC. Note, the dinner menu is pretty pricy, so I will stick to happy hour here.“

“I’ve been seeing this restaurant for years and we finally tried it recently. We really were missing out!! Every single item of food that we ordered was absolutely delicious. The service was wonderful and they were so kind and patient with our toddler. They have a great coloring sheet option for kids with crayons and she was distracted for big chunk of time, which was great for us. I really do love it when a restaurant thinks about their younger customers. Really appreciated that. The atmosphere is great and felt very cozy and welcoming. Not too loud, not too quiet — just right. Seating was ample and there was no wait since we were there on a weekday for dinner. We’ll definitely be back soon!“

“First, service here is excellent. Very attentive, prompt, and they got everything right. Granted, it was midweek, rainy, and on the early side. Service was slower last year on a nicer evening in late Spring. The food is really good Italian, the best I've had in 3 years of living in the area. We had tricolore salad, eggplant rollatini, meatballs, and chicken Parmesan. And a chocolate cannoli. All delicious! And the marinara sauce rivals my own.“
