Haven't reviewed in a while tbh, so take this with a grain of salt (no pun intended haha). Went to Blackfinn on a random Tuesday. I knew from the moment I walked in that it was a good vibe. It wasn't too crowded and I was easily able to find a seat at the bar. This was at 6pm and happy hour ends at 7pm. Happy hour deal is pretty solid, $2 off drafts and cocktails and some food items. As a foodie, the fries were crispy and seasoned well. Didn't get a chance to try any other food items. For cons, the bartenders were really nice but also on their cell phones for most of the time. So ordering another drink was a bit of a challenge to gain their attention. Overall, great happy hour experience and would go back again.

The cheese curds were really delicious. The Mac and cheese with pork too. Service was sub par. Our waitress must have left during our meal. Finished my beer and then my salad. A second beer would have been nice at an appropriate time. Great place for us to watch the eagles vs packers game.

Phenomenal in almost every way. The food was flavorful and filling. Some places make me nervous when they serve too many different types of cuisine, but everything we had here was fantastic and properly cooked regardless of whether it was American, Asian, or Mediterranean.Our server was a polite but straightforward young man who kept us well taken care of. The only problem was that the kitchen took so long to send out our BBQ wings that we ended up cancelling them.My buffalo chicken bacon sandwich was so full of flavor, the buffalo sauce had seeped deep into the chicken and every bite was excellent. They brought me plenty of bleu cheese just as requested.Worth the stop-in if you're in DC!

Came for dinner after checking out the Black Lives Matter Plaza. Food was good. I was very impressed with the shrimp and crab dip. Just wish they gave us more! lol. The crab cake did not disappoint either. Although we could have used more dipping sauce. And the sweet potato casserole was delish.Staff were super friendly and welcoming. The place was busy when we arrived but it was dinner time and happy hour so I could see why. But we had no problem getting a table.

Went with friends to watch the AFC championship game. The place was absolutely packed as it's a Chiefs bar. Service was better the first hour ish we were there and then understandably got worse the busier they got. Their game day specials could have been a little better. Bud light was $6, Stella, goose island IPA and one other beer were $7. Those were the only beers on special. Note: when the bill came the budlight was listed at $7.25. Management should have ensured all game day specials were programmed correctly into the POS before such a huge event. They had a variety of food options on special. I got a half plate of totchos with chicken for $9.99. It was okay. Not amazing but not terrible. I thought it was odd the chicken was in a bbq sauce. Hardly any sour cream and no salsa. They didn't tell you what all came with it. The back half of the bar near the restrooms was at least twice as loud as the front. IMO they had the value up WAY too high. I could hear everything perfectly clear from inside the restroom. Folks were also smoking vapes (both weed and cigs) inside the bar. I get it's DC and weed is legal but it's not in a restaurant where food is served. Nobody wants to inhale your vape smoke. Also thought it was odd when the bill came there were two different prices. One if you pay cash and the other for credit. Why is this? Is this a DC thing? Restaurants should not be passing credit card fees onto customers like this if that's the reasoning.

We came here on a weeknight before a show and we had a good experience. Our server was very pleasant, although we do wish we had a little more attention, but I don't blamer her. They were very busy and had less staff than they probably should have at that time. I tried their hibiscus paloma which was good, and their peach sangria which I would recommend. The deviled eggs are funny because they were deep fried, and I wasn't a big fan, but my spouse like them. I enjoye the BLT chicken tacos. Would recommend sitting and eating here if you are in the neighborhood and looking for good bar/American food.

Came here for a group dinner to catch the game the place was super packed and with limited seating it took a while for our group to get seated because they had reservations for private party. The food was all right. The service was slow and unattended. We never got refills of any water at our table. Also took a long time for us to order and then get the bill. Just a pub to watch the game. Nothing special.
