The Brighton - Washington

How dare you gentrify an area and automatically put an 18% tip on my CARRYOUT order and the bartender was not all that friendly. The only bright spot there was the young man at the door with locks. He was very professional.

I enjoy this place but I see the reason for some other reviews. I wouldn't really suggest much off their cocktail menu, personally. Food is good though. Yes, they do physically keep your card with them, I assume they've had an issue with dashers.

I ordered the fish and chips. 5 minutes later the manager comes back and tells me they're out of it. They asked me to pick anything I want from the menu and then they comped it. That's great service. My salmon with mashed potatoes and spinach was excellent!

I was on my way to shake shack when the gravitational pull of 30 buckets of miller high Life pulled me in. I had been looking for this while in DC. The place was not overly full either so I liked that and the short rib burger with bacon and egg was delicious..sat there a while and people watched and listened to the music across the way..My kind of place.

Great staff. $15 seasonal raspberry lemonade needs to be reevaluated. They use a HEAVY botanical base which overpowers the drink. Like drinking basil-flavored Pledge. The artichoke dip was ON POINT. better than kirwins. loaded w garlic. Lobster roll also good.
