We came here to watch the 4th of July fireworks. It was a fairly small rooftop, they had some covered seating, a bar, and decent view. It was a cute little spot, but I probably wouldn't come back. There wasn't much service needed for this particular event. We didn't eat the food, but it looked okay. Nothing wow factor. For the 4th it was a great spot to see all the fireworks and the sunset. However, there weren't enough seats for the amount of people they sold tickets to.

My fiancée and I attended a foodie event at City Club of Washington hosted by Instagram/YouTube cooking superstars Mr. Make it Happen, Kimmy's Kreations, and One Stop Chop. [follow them all immediately!]The event lead with a cocktail hour turned informal "meet and greet" turned picture-taking session. It was a good time.Once that was over, we were all eagerly led to the dining room where the fun (more picture-taking), games (raffles), and food (see below) began.Here's what we had...Booze:(me) POMTINI(he) OLD FASHIONED1st course -- passed hors d'oeuvres:EMPANADAS (filled w/CREAM CHEESE AND BACON)MUSHROOM TARTCRAB CAKE EGG ROLL2nd course -- appetizersHOUSE SALADCRAB BALLSSPINACH DIP w/TORTILLA CHIPS3rd course -- entréeTUSCAN SALMON + WILD RICE + ASPARAGUS SPEARSLAMB CHOPS+ MASHED POTATOES + BROCCOLINI4th course -- dessertSTRAWBERRY SHORTCAKECHOCOLATE CAKE [gluten-free]Everything was plated well, served hot, and delicious!Was also happy to chat and get pics with Kimmy and Daven!

My friends were married here recently and the ceremony was absolutely beautiful... as was the venue. The fountain and the winding staircase added an extra layer of elegance to the affair. The staff were all wonderful: they kept the food and drinks flowing and more than a few times I saw the staff checking in with the bride and groom to make sure that they didn't need anything. The brunch menu we had at the reception was very good. Fresh green salad, salmon, roasted potatoes, bacon (sadly they only offered pork bacon), Belgian waffles, a few other menu items I can't remember and an assortment of sumptuous desserts that were delivered to our tables as we were dancing.This venue is not only walking distance from the Metro, but there are also several parking garages just a short walk from this place. Incredibly convenient for guests.

The billing and A/R department is horrible- we started having billing issues very early on and for TWO YEARS they still were there. We cancelled 6 months ago months and I'm still having issues with getting threatening notices and billed every single month for membership and charges that aren't ours. Apparently there is a management issue and nobody seems to stay in the job... which leads to this issue never being resolved.Stop charging people who cancelled their accounts months ago. Seriously.I've been to and a member of other Club Corp locations and this one is seriously lacking in a lot of areas. It's great for a drink or meal, but you probably should look into other clubs for membership.

On Wednesday evening, my friend and I attended dinner at the City Club with a 630pm reservation. Neither of us are members but she had won a raffle prize for free dinner for 2 so we decided to cash in on this night. When we checked in, we were given the option of dining in the bar lounge or the dining hall. We chose to dine in the lounge. When I tell you from beginning to end it was the best experience, that would be an understatement! We were waited on by Gordon the bartender but he was also assisted by other staff members as well. Gordon is Jamaican and quite the entertainer! He literally had us laughing and crying the entire night. The food was pretty good for the most part. I ordered a Porterhouse steak cooked medium well. When it arrived it was undercooked so I asked for them to put it back on a little bit longer. Instead of adding cooking time to my original steak, they cooked me an entire new one! Our dinner consisted of a 3 course meal. They also currently have a great fall drink menu with lots of options to choose from. The decoration is really nice and the lounge area is really nice and we were able to enjoy Game 7 of the World Series while we were there. There were 2 things that occurred this night which made this this experience even better. First Ian, the service manager, gave us another opportunity to come back for a free dinner due to the issue with my food. Second, only dinner was included in the voucher. However, the establishment comped every single thing we ordered that evening including the drinks, dessert and side dishes. We were so appreciative of the superb customer service and can't wait to return for dinner again!

During our Spring Break we took a family trip to Washington DC. We wanted to visit one of our Club Corp clubs. City Club of Washington did not disappoint. Our food was amazing. I cannot give enough praise to our host that night Enrique Marquita (I have his card). He made sure our every need was taken care of. He was also a hoot to talk too!! We will definitely visit the next time we are in the area. I was going through photos today and decided I needed to post.

Was working with Brianna, private event coordinator, for a corporate program. We had been going back and forth with changes from my legal team. Emailed her changes at 2:30pm one day and got an email the following morning that the space was booked. WHAT? Apparently the City Club of Washington has no regard for potential customers. I've worked in events for 10+ years and venues have ALWAYS let me know when another group was interested in the date I was working on. She said they had another group inquire last night and book this morning while my changes were sitting with legal. Will never use and would highly recommend staying away from this venue!

My daughter and I enjoyed the Philly Cheesesteak this week. We both thought it was perfect! Perfect flavor. Perfect size. Everything you want in a cheesesteak. It reminded me of one I had last year at one of Philly's best places for cheesesteak - Dalessamdro's. I enjoyed my sandwich on the patio next to the fountain with a glass of red wine. I got another cheesesteak to go. I warmed it up the next day for my daughter's lunch at my house - in the microwave (meat) and air fryer (bread and fries). It was well packed with mayo and ketchup, and lettuce and tomato slices separate.

Wow. For all the money we paid for our special event, you would think the place would at least use some salt. The food was bland at best and unedible on average. Soggy vegetable soup with a congealed cheese garnish, an undressed salad, tart(? what?) salmon, frozen raviolis with a sugary butternut soup on top, dense flavorless butter to top old dry biscuits (clearly this is how they put there day olds to use) these rolls were definitely on their last leg) - it was all quite upsetting. To top it all off, the "lava" cake...was anything but. It was a dense cold solid piece of stale chocolate. It put the subway cookie to shame... as the most disappointing dessert of all time.Do not recommend. Save your money.
