Mad Hatter's (Gin &) Tea Party Washington DC: what do users think?
Kylie Tennant: Other than the decorations on the way in, it was pretty lame. The skits weren’t funny and didn’t even make sense. And unnecessary swearing. We didn’t get it. The drinks tasted like koolaid…weak. Not worth the money or time.
Anne Rumain: Regarding the atmosphere and the cast the event was 10/10, the cast were energetic and they were very quick to interact with the guests. But regarding the refreshments they were rather hit and miss. Overall the alcoholic drinks were good, but the non-alcoholic drinks were rather inconsistent (the second virgin drink tasted like vinegar and we didn't even get the rose petals that were meant for it). And the treats they served were six small standard cookies which wouldn't be terrible except I'd expect a tad more for $65 per person especially since the cocktails were only tea cup sized. Overall I enjoyed the event and am rather excited to try out more events by Fever.
Response: Hello, Anne. Thank you so much for your 4-star rating - it's much appreciated! We hope to see you again in future Fever events!
Leia Wood: Overall, we had a good time. Actors did a great job, audience was engaged, experience was pretty smooth. The writing is funny and adult oriented. One major issue was that the Mad Hatter stunk, major BO! Another is that for $70 per person, the treats needed to be higher end (like a macaroon or a mini cucumber sandwich) and the drinks were watered down. Some decorations also seemed a bit cheap, like the thin drapery and damaged hats.
Response: Hello, Leia. Thank you so much for your 3-star rating - it's much appreciated! We hope to see you again in future Fever events!
Becca Braun: I loved this experience! I went with a few friends from college and my best friend's favorite movie growing up was Alice and Wonderland. This is definitely an interesting twist on the original story but we had a lot of fun and the drinks were amazing!
Response: Hello, Becca. At Fever, we aim to give you more events that meet your standards, so we hope to see you soon ❤️ Thanks for the kind review!
LaToya Wilborn: What a scam! I haven’t even experienced the event yet and I’m completely turned off. My friends and I booked this event nearly a month in advance and we’re notified a week before the event that the show we were booked for was canceled. We weren’t offered a refund, only a voucher with limited availability left. When we found a date that worked for all of us we had to pay an additional rebooking fee. Sure, it’s only $5 but why am I repaying for something I already paid for and I’m not the reason it was canceled in the first place. Will update after our visit this weekend. Hopefully the show/drinks can earn a star 💫 😒
Response: Hello, LaToya. Thanks for bringing this to our attention. Please, contact us at customer_satisfaction@feverup.com to help you with your case. Best regards.
Ilona Nakshun: If you are coming from a different city or may be late by even a minute, don’t buy a ticket. We weren’t allowed to exchange our tickets for another day. We were told we can come on thursday and MAYBE they’d let us in. They should at least let people exchange for another day. I’m not paying $70 again to come back. The guy at the front even said that they’re a new company and managment doesn’t know what they’re doing.
Response: Hello. We're sorry that your experience with us has not been the best. We will forward your comments to the appropriate department for them to take it into account moving forward. Regards,
Payton: We got there MINUTES after the doors closed for our event and weren’t let in. So we waited 2 hours for the next one and weren’t let in again. They told us to come back tomorrow and keep trying forever until we’re finally let in, even though there will still be no guarantee we’ll be let in u less we buy NEW tickets, and there’s no refunds, all because we were a few minutes late one night. This is a terrible policy that doesn’t account for bus traffic or the basic fact that people should get what they pay for. So now I’m just out of $120 and wasted my Halloween night.
Response: Hello! We regret to hear that your experience with us has not been positive. Please reach us at customer_satisfaction@feverup.com, so we can reopen your case and offer you a suitable solution!
Pilar M: I enjoyed the show a lot! It was a great combo of a beautiful set, a great performance and awesome drinks!
Response: Hello, Pilar. Thank you so much for your 5-star rating - it's much appreciated! We hope to see you again in future Fever events!
Jenesis Alonso: Amazing experience and great people running the show. It’s a greet family and friends experience, and I would definitely go again!!!
Response: Hey there, Jenesis. We're truly honored by your 5-star rating for this event! We have worked very hard to provide a quality event, so we're glad to know that our mission has been accomplished.
Manuel Vega-Penichet: Incredible experiencie!! Great cocktails and high quality immersive experience. 10/10
Response: Hey, Manuel! Thank you for having taken the time to write such a kind review. We're all glad that you got to be a part of this experience. See you at future Fever events!

Union Stage: what do users think?
Mrs. Dino: Small intimate venue with great sound and lineups. Can get pretty crowded but still a fun place to see a show. The VIP area is a little weird, I wouldn't pay extra for it, as it's just a few tables roped off behind General Admisson. I doubt you would be able to see if it was a packed show. Easy to Uber or Lyft to, and is located in a super cute part of the Wharf District. If I lived in DC I would definitely come here often.
Dan Rice: What a great little venue! My kid and I went to see Cybertronic Spree in November. The sound system was perfect for the setting. I didn't feel crowded, the bartenders were excellent. I would definitely go back! Being in the southern outskirts of DC is nice for me because I'm coming in from the south.
Response: glad to hear you had a good time at union stage! - luke
Tricia Alletzhauser: We had a great time here. We saw Niko Moon. It was an excellent show and the bar is a decent venue to watch a show. The bar staff was very nice. Overall, we had a great time.
Response: Thank you!
Dave Nemetz: Great little joint to hear some live music. Easy to get to, just a short walk from the L’Enfant Plaza Metro stop. Saw Will Hoge, and was right up next to the stage. Looking forward to seeing more shows here soon.
Chelsea M: Attended a show at Union Stage this weekend with my child & we had a great time! The venue is very intimate so the band can really feed off the crowd's energy and vice versa. I thought it was cool how to venue is basically under the restaurant. The only thing I thought was weird was the "premier plus seating" was only 4 seats roped off to the side... other than that it was great!
Oooma L.: A most excellent venue if standing (as in NO seating for regular ticket holders) amid a sea of mostly unmasked bipeds on a concrete floor in dark, windowless dungeons excites you. Featured music acts are one or two steps above what is offered at local suburban coffee houses. Meh. Most of the staff were polite.
Response: hi oooma. the floor is wood and the acts are all nationally or internationally touring performers. but yes, most of our concert-goers are bipeds!
Mike Davidson: Cool basement bar for live music right in the Wharf with a decent selection of liquor, rotating drafts, and bottles. Small bar food menu and limited seating. I'd recommend parking a few blocks away and walking if it's the weekend.
Maria Cecilia Pinto de Moura: The Union Stage space is very good, but the 80s dance party on June 25 with DJ Dave Paul was disappointing for 2 reasons. First, too many of the songs were covers of the originals. Second, there was a very dominant drum machine added to all the songs. The songs completely lost their character and were blended together into a dull mass-produced soup. The message that came across was that after all the music from that decade couldn't have been that good, if we have to 'improve' it to motivate people to dance.
Response: hi maria. sorry you didn't enjoy the show. email me at luke@unionstage.com and we can take care of you. - luke
Ann Brennan: Great venue for music. Very intimate without being too crowded. Clean. Easy to park. Good beer selection and attentive staff.
Response: Thank you! Glad you enjoyed your time!
natalie !: Be cautious buying tickets from this venue! I was going to see a show on Jan 25 and it was postponed. The band I was going to see posted about their new tour dates and they were no longer going to perform at union stage and instead at a venue called DC9. I never received a refund from union stage, despite their website states you will receive a refund if a show is canceled. There is my $50 down the drain. I emailed them twice and no response. Very unfortunate that they're deciding to take advantage of their customers and ignoring them. I've been to this venue before and enjoyed my time there. But now, I am going to stay away and don't want to support this venue. Edit: I emailed Luke a week ago and still have yet to receive a response. Disappointed and definitely won't be supporting this venue or any of their affiliate venues..
Response: Go ahead and email us at luke@unionstage.com and we’ll take care of it.

Walter E. Washington Convention Center: what do users think?
Joshua Russell: First time to the convention center for Awesome Con 2022. Huge place with many halls and areas to meet. Multiple locations for bathrooms and some food selections as well. The staff was very helpful and super friendly. Awesome con was in fact awesome! Lost of cosplay, huge areas for original art, and many vendors for comics, cards, games, and so much more. First time coming to one of these and was very happy to be able to go. Next time will plan a bit better and spend more time and checking out the table top gaming areas as well.
Ivysfoodcorner: We visited the Walter E Convention Center for Washington DC Auto Show 2022 Event. This place is super convenient, right next to Metro station and surrounded by all locals restaurants. The facility was maintained very professionally, the security was organized and the restroom also very clean and super shiny! The Washington DC Auto Show 2022 is a must to visit! It’s an eye opener event especially if you’re planning to buy your future cars. We had a blast visiting this year, with all the pandemic precautions, all were organized professionally and you can definitely social distancing without problems. We’re spoiled and entertained by the numbers of cars on the show, all come with new technology and amazing design, especially the electric cars and the muscles cars. Not forget to mention about the electric buses! Check on the exotic cars section and the oldies cars just to be mesmerized! Don’t forget to check on the event while they’re still around!
Jason Bogstie: I spent a week attending an event at this convention center. The place is fantastic! It's huge! Staff are friendly and knowledgeable. It was very clean and felt safe. There are ample food and beverage choices within and nearby the convention center. The technology available at the convention center was good and modern. Very ADA accessible. All in all, a great place for big events.
Anthony Heady: Awesome Con - Always Awesome and Always amazing, everyone dressed up looks spectacular, there something for everyone, game halls to play, tons of art stuff for the kids. I can rant and rave for hours but you just need to go for atleast a day and see the fun for yourself.
James Walker: Walked right up to Pagani Huayra, the $2,500,000+ Italian carbon fiber sports car, wow factor.The red Chevrolet Corvette Z06, caught my eye at about $90,000. The pretty blue 2022 Camaro LT1 Convertible starting at $41,145 was also an eye opener.
Janice L: Huge convention with tons of food places around. Came here for Awesome Con and it was a really fun and clean location for a con. It has a good amount of chairs located all around the convention for sitting!
Williams world: AwesomeCon2022 was amazing great cosplays, friendly people good merchandise and tasty food.
Lambert Matias: Attended AUSA Annual Conference . No complaints all around, but for the amount of people this place can hold, there should be more seating outside the halls and accommodations for physically impaired folks. Also, I want to give a very positive shout-out to the staff who delivered my dropped vaccination card to the lost and found office. Thank you!
Meet Miss Sallyy: Visited so many times for different meetings and conventions… last one AwsomeCon. Fun.
Midknight Mechanics: Very nice facility for the autoshow. This was my first time to the DC Convention Center.

United States National Arboretum: what do users think?
Eduardo Moser: We visited during cherry blossom days. They have a great variety of cherry trees and magnolias. It is a complement to know different cherry blossoms from those of the Tidal Basin. There is no proper public transportation, so the place is fairly free of tourists. We came to this place by car on the recommendation of a friend who lives in DC. The Bonsai collection is amazing. There is much to walk and explore. On a plain they have mounted the original columns of the Capitol. Bring some snacks and drinks, because there is no service in the place. Access and parking is free.
Laurie Zabala: Beautiful landscaping. Very tranquil & relaxing walk through the extensive herb garden. The Bonsai museum is a must. Great place for a picnic. The National columns are stunning. Entrance is free. Be sure to use the restroom at the visitor center when you first arrive because you'll do alot of walking & that's the only restroom on the grounds. Bring a water bottle & snacks as there is no restaurant on site. Definitely a treasure that's worth the trek to the east edge of DC.
Marty Shaw, Author, RCA, BCMA: Great experience! Just go! I was there in early spring and the colors were amazing. So many different specimens of plant material I never see commercially. They have an amazing assortment of unique things you won't find anywhere else. It was a real treat.
Da-Wang Wu: We came here in late April, and the Azalea blossoming was pretty amazing! Walking on the trail with the Azalea blossoming along the way was very nice. Parking inside the park can be tricky, so we parked in the lot right next to the entrance and walked 5-10 minutes to the main campus. Overall, it’s a beautiful place, and I would definitely come back.
CJ: Depending on when you visit the US National Arboretum, something different is peaking. In mid April, the fruit trees were just past peak, but the lilacs shrubs were close to full bloom. As I strolled thru the lilac grove, the soft lilac fragrance permeated the air. One of the US National Arboretum’s most prominent and a little puzzling landmarks is the old Corinthian National Capitol Columns residing on the Ellipse Meadow. The US National Arboretum was not the column’s intended home when they were quarried back in the early 1800s. Originally, the columns were built as a part of the east portico of the US Capitol Building now located about 3 miles away from the US National Arboretum. By the 1860s, when the dome of the Capitol was completed, the columns were deemed inadequate to support the new dome. It wouldn’t be until the mid 1980s before the columns would find their final home at the US National Arboretum. Twenty-two of the original 24 columns are on majestic display in Ellipse Meadow. During our trip to the US National Arboretum in mid April, the Azaleas were just starting to bud and bloom. So no good pictures this trip. Peak time for the Azalea garden at the arboretum is late April. I hear the Azaleas are a beautiful sight when the hillside is painted with splotches of different colors.
Omar Abu-sabha: It is a great place to walk and enjoy the area's vegetation. The Japanese and Chinese pavilions are very interesting, although they are closed in winter. The old columns of the capitol are without a doubt a must if you like photography.
Melissa B: Despite living in the DC area for over 30 years, I had never been here. What an oversight! The National Arboretum is beautiful and interesting. Everyone there, staff and visitors, were very friendly. I'll be bak again.
Karthikeyan Rajaram: Luck is when you run into a beautiful place like this without planning. Better luck is when you get into it in the company of a person who used to volunteer at this place. We didn’t really plan to be at the arboretum, considering that the Spring is still not Springy enough. We had seen enough of Cherry Blossoms in the Tidal basin area that we thought we could do something else. We just made it to this place on recommendation from one of our relatives, who also accompanied us. Since he was a volunteer here, he helped us navigate and gave us so much insights about the different kinds of plants, flowers, bonsais and the what the lovely people who work here, do. We drove around this place and still got to see more cherry blossoms, along with different other species of flora. The enchanting Bonsai museum is a must visit as it did take our breathes away. The old columns of the capitol and the grove of different state trees are some of the special features of this place. The flowers were not in full blossom and we definitely look forward to checking this place again in summer.
Logan Heilman: Visited for the Bonsai event they were having and had a blast. All the vendors were great and the museums bonsai and penjing exhibit was phenomenal. Will definitely be back.
Elisabeth “Beth” Ostrander: We only had about an hour and headed to the bonsai area. Wow! To see living gifts from Japan and China that were started and cared for since before the birth of our nation was truly outstanding. Befitting our National Arboretum! Will return to see more treasures!

United States Holocaust Memorial Museum: what do users think?
The Maldonado’s: The Holocaust is one of those historic atrocities that we shouldn’t forget. This memorial is well thought out, planned and kept. Come with time to spare because there is lots to see, learn and explore. Find the password before you hop in the elevator and start your journey as a Jew prisoner.
Karol Dabrowski: As I'm Polish this was must to see museum. I was very pleased with the layout and information. You don't feel good once leaving this place but that's what you should feel... Holocaust is a fact that should make us thinking!
Tiffany Brandell: The most gut-wrenching experience, but the displays are full of such an incredible amount of history. You don't have a choice but to learn something, and we all should learn something from this place. Highly recommend visiting at least once, and you should definitely try to reserve tickets ahead of your visit.
Heidi Benson: This was my dream: to pay my respects "in person" to millions of people who might have made our world better. I will always question WHY? did this happen? HOW? The museum is informative and laid out in a sensitive fashion. I keep reading books in an attempt to understand, but I'm not sure I ever will. Thank you, Washington D.C., for making this available to the world, and at no cost. It's a beautiful tribute to beautiful lives so needlessly lost.
Roberto J. Fajardo: This is a must stop in DC. Powerful, somber. Tragic. But we must remind ourselves every now and then do that we use our voices and actions to stop evil before it gains power. It only cost $1 to get in. Excellent organization. Permanent exhibit is informative and has a lot of "artefacts" to support the message.
Robert Wagner: A story that must be told. Devastatingly real. MAYBE A TICKET HACK: I could not get daily tickets that became available at 7 AM. The program kept telling me that they were not available for the day. I noticed the program kept mentioning somthing about purchasing tickets previously. So I went in a purchased them in advanced for a dollar a piece then I went back to the tickets that were available for the day at 7 AM and the program let me buy the tickets for that day. I guess since I had already purchased tickets previously the program had me in the system. I hope this helps anyone trying to get tickets at 7 AM.
kevin haughey: Everyone should experience this, understand what happened, how it happened, and never forget. Blindly following a government or charismatic leader can be tragic. Not speaking up when it begins can be deadly.
Sahil Singh: I had to travel all the way to USA (from India) to realize how easy it is to divide people. How false propaganda turns people into monsters in the name of psuedo nationalism. To realize how unfortunate my people back home are to still have the seeds of division still deeply rooted. How sad it is to see a society divided on religious and communal lines. It's important to remember the past so that we may not repeat the mistakes. This is the aim of this memorial is to tell aloud the atrocities that were mete to these people. The people who perished (millions died), and the ones who were damaged beyond repair. This is a reminder of the time men like you and me turned against his own brethren. Reminder of a man who in the name of taking the country forward pushed the world back to a primitive time, when barbarism was common, and cruelty was the way of life. We want a better society, but at what cost? I see xenophobic leaders gaining popularity around the world, and it fills my heart with despair. A note on permanent exhibition. The museum has 2 parts - the permanent exhibition, and rest of the museum. The former requires tickets. The tickets are limited and get over soon. You can either book in advance or can get same day tickets. For same day tickets you'll either have to visit their website at 6 in the morning, or be at the museum at 9.45 am. For booking online, their website redirects to a third party website. I started trying to book right at 6, but the website started showing tickets as available more towards 6.10. The tickets if collected at the museum are free, if booking online, you'll have to pay 1$ per head. There are certain people who are exempt from needing to buy tickets - veterans, etc. Also, when in permanent exhibit keep in mind that it spans across 3 floors, I did the mistake that I spent most of the time on the first level itself, and didn't get time for other levels, as museum's closing time approached. There's a lot of stuff to read, so it's easy to lose track of time. In the very first level, there is a 14 minute video shown, which I liked. You may want to see that. Hope your heart feels something when you leave this place, and you move, even if only the slightest bit, away from the notions that divide people.
Anthony Scott: An amazing museum to see, and very eye opening. So many facts, and so many things I have never seen or heard before. You can enter for free, but just get there early enough to get tickets to see the whole exhibit. The museum allows military, police, and fireman in anytime to attend the entire museum, even if all the tickets were given out. A definite must see while in DC.
Curtis Tucker: Beautiful museum. Just felt a little rushed because it was very busy. Wish I could of spent more time viewing each and every part of the self guided tour without feeling like I was "hogging it" from people behind me. But I loved it otherwise. It was a heartbreaking and enjoyable educational experience at the same time.

Embassy of Russian Federation: what do users think?
Pavel Kuzkin: The entrance for passport and visa appointments is on Tunlaw Rd on the back side. The lunch hours right now are 12-3. The staff is very pleasant and helpful. There was street parking available right next to the back entrance.
Veronika Sanato: lucking of social skills and information... I renew my travel passport with them and receive my official document without translation of my patronymic and received all my official documents in USA according to that... now they won’t accept my original documents from my state because i dont have it, calling to them to understand how fast to make it and can't get answer, representative not interesting to give any information
Natalia Sutyagina: I was pleasantly surprised with their service. They took my passport application for process even without having a scheduled appointment. Worked very quickly and effectively. All people are very polite and patient. They gave me a phone call after I sent them an email regarding my passport. I'm fully satisfied with the all details I received from the person who called me. Unfortunately, don't remember her name.
Anastasia Cholacu: Staff was very helpful and pleasant. Assisted me and my mother with application and corrected mistakes that we have within application. I have been notified of passport being ready for pick up. I had great experience at the embassy!
Alexander Scythian: Impolite if not to say rude staff, not friendly at all, dirty surfaces… oh those Russians.
David Mercer: I needed to prolong my Russian international passport and had very nice experience in Russian Embassy. They were very friendly and extremely professional, did everything very fast, about 10 minutes and everything was done. I received my passport sooner then it was expected. Thank you very much! Russia has very beautiful face!
Marina Hernandez Boiko: Very helpful staff! Answered all my questions every time I called regarding renewing my passport. Website was easy to use and print paperwork.
Natalya Stepanova: While they are horrible at picking up the phone, I found the actual application process to be on par with most other embassies that I had to deal with (namely, American, French, German). I have applied for 3 passports and 3 visas at this Embassy. Visa process was completely painless: you can get an appointment reasonably fast, there was literally no line when we got there at our appointed time, the entire application took only a few minutes, the turnaround time is just a couple of days, if I remember correctly, and everyone was polite and efficient. I see no reason at all to go through a third party if you can make it there yourself - it's really neither a big hassle nor a complicated process. Passport process is more cumbersome, since appointments have to be made as far as 3 months ahead of time, and the processing takes also up to 3 months, so I recommend starting the process a full half year before the travel date. There are usually also more applicants, and, therefore, more of a wait, even when you have a set time for your appointment. But still, if your paperwork is done well, it's quick and painless once you get to the window, although not quite as friendly as the visa process, I found.
Olga Feschenko: The process of applying for passport renewals for my family was super automated and efficient. The Embassy staff is very professional, polite and, most importantly, on point. No complaints here :) Thank you very much!
Breshna Sabawon: I went to Russian Embassy in Washington Dc from Spokane WA on 7/27/2020 and the immigration specialist told me leave the document and you don't have to come again. they will send me a written answer to my request. so far I am looking my mail everyday and nothing. I don't know how many star I should give the embassy. I am still waiting for that letter.

The U.S. Capitol Visitor Center: what do users think?
TexCat: Thoroughly enjoyed our impromptu visit here. It’s only just reopened fully to the public since the pandemic apparently. We got there and learned that you could scan a code there and get an online reservation if there were any available. We got lucky and got in immediately! Wonderful tour. Our guide was great. She kept it interesting and informative. So glad we came. One of the highlights of our DC trip.
Ashok Patel: The Capitol Visitor Center is not accepting tour reservations at this time. The Visitor Center is supposed to provide a welcoming and educational environment for visitors to learn about the unique characteristics of the House, the Senate and the legislative process as well as the history and development of the architecture and art of the US Capitol. Unfortunately, the Capitol Visitor Center is closed since last two years due to pandemic. This is going to reopen tentatively from May 30, 2022 to limited numbers of visitors. However, we visited the US Capitol Grounds which is the 58 acre very well maintained park immediately surrounding the US Capitol building. The green lush park-like setting looks beautiful against the Capitol building and National Mall. The grounds is bordered by stone wall. Different types of trees and bushes are grown in the grounds with curved walkways. Many trees on the Capitol grounds have memorial associations. Leisurely walk around the world power center to explore the beauty of the Capitol building is great experience. The entry to the Capitol building is closed for the general public but walking up to the steps of this symbolically most important and impressive public building of United States and the world is great opportunity. After six months of enhanced security measures, finally the fence is down and people can now visit the Capitol grounds.
Brandon Kalski: Excellent tour this week at the Visitor's Center. I have had a personal walk through before from a staffer but this tour was better. Our guide Ed was wonderful. He was professional, engaging and humorous. You could tell he knew the optimal time to take us into each section. Afterwards, I read Washington's farewell address because he recommended it. I was not so sure about the headphones at first but it made for a personal tour. Our young boys kept them on as well and stayed engaged. Looking forward to going back again.
Ivana Purić: Wanted to finally visit US Capitol inside , but unfortunately it’s closed because of pandemic and they didn’t upload this details on Google Maps . It was good weather , so we just walked around .
Kevin Loeffler: Had an excellent tour organized through my district's representative- definitely go this route if you can for a more personal experience. The visitor center itself is beautiful, full of exhibits, statues, and information. It is bustling with activity so watch out for the people who are hard at work!
Olivia Y.: the Capitol building is beautiful but if you do a tour here the tour guides don't always know what they're talking about and they're not the most helpful. During visiting hours it's tough to get through security, they're very strict and sometimes rude. I absolutely love the work they do here and respect every one working in building. Definitely visit the capitol while in DC! can't miss it.
Greg Davis: Book in advance but on the quiet days you can turn up without a reservation and walk straight on to a tour as we did on a Friday. It’s worth doing. The rotunda is fantastic. For international visitors it’s easy enough to get to see the extras (house of senate and House of Representatives) - just give your photo ID to the appointment desk. But note that no cameras are allowed in either of those last two places and it has it own security.
Mark Thornton: Pretty cool place. Beautiful architects as with all DC buildings, not too busy —though through the week. Very structured and organized for visitors. Restaurant onsite. Gets very busy bus is organized and structured well. The food isn’t that great, but has a good variety.
Mishkat Khetran: If I am not wrong, majority of the tourists visiting DC do come here for sure. Place is enormous and is filled with lots of history, magnificent architecture, beautiful sculptures and very well organized educational tours of this place. Only setback of this place is, it's so big that you walk a lot and then you get hungry/thirsty and tired. Food is not available anywhere near. You can only get lucky with the food carts but even for those, you'll have to walk a lot so fill your tummy before starting. You have to buy tickets of course, but I am not aware of the price so you will have to check online. They do have discounts available all year round. Parents must bring their children here to enlighten them with some historical events.
Argentum Sphinx: Very engaging staff. Well orchestrated tours of a building that's far more interesting than you'd expect. All items in the gift shops(North side and South sides) are made in the USA. The shops carry the same merchandise. Plan to take the Halls of the Senate tour. It's only given at 11am and 2pm Monday through Friday.

Ozio Lounge: what do users think?
Erica Kearney: The Drinks Are Juice It’s No Champagne At All In The Mimosas I Wasted An Outfit Coming Here There Was No Food The Fat Manger Was Very Rude When Asking Questions About Where Is The Food. Then They Made Their TOGO Plates First Before Serving Us. hookah 80$ Please After Paying 60 To Drink Juice And Eat Old Grits Save Ya Money The Scenery Is Cute But That’s It.
Alex: Went around 9 pm and the bouncer told me I looked drunk and asked me if I had been somewhere else beforehand. I had 2-3 drinks with a friend at another bar beforehand and told him this. He at first refused to let me in, but after I specifically asked why I wasn't let in, he let me in. My friend was charged 22 dollars for a shot here. There are better bars/clubs
203Whitty: Sunday was horrible and I really wanted my money back. Arrived at 1 and most of the food on the top floor was already gone. Had to keep walking back to the next level just to get food, that was nasty. The mimosa was all juice. Will never return again.
Tiara Welch: Couple things I noted about brunch: 1) was on the second floor, the entire second floor had one waitress/server for the whole floor. 2) they were giving us juice with no champagne for bottomless mimosas (check your glass for bubbles) 3) buffet server was using his hands to serve French toast and bacon 4) music is solid. 5) Salmon was my favorite. — overall the food was good for my experience. 6) the crowd was very very young.. like, college kids pretending to be Cardi B & the Migos.
A Lee: Rip off!! They have free entry on eventbrite. The girl at the hostess stands say it’s 60 each to get in: that would have been fine if you we didn’t eat at Air Lounge: the food is better btw. Rip off!! They deserve zero stars!! We were willing to buy drinks but not brunch. The girl looked Asian btw: that way you will know who we worked with.
Carissa Nicole: Yesterday was my first time back since 2018 (went for brunch). The food was really good but cold!!! Mimosas were juiced down (could barely taste the champaign). Drinks are BEYOND overpriced (paid $32 for two shots of crown royal, CROWN ROYAL, before the added gratiuity). Depending on where you're seated, you're going to be hand fanning yourself. $60 isn't worth it, specifically because the mimosas are very weak. If y'all do better with the mimosas, $60 would be more doable ...and tell your buffet servers to stop throwing food on your patrons' plates smh
Jayda Brown: Great vibes. Good food. I’m not sure why it’s so hot in there please fix your air conditioning. Other than Ozios being a sauna , I highly recommend for girls brunch !
Kevin Gaines: Paid 120 for me and my girlfriend brunch was told bottomless mimosas but it would come every other hour and also was told all u can eat but they ran out of food but the atmosphere and music was vibe
Michael Benissan: I visited with a group of friends during the late afternoon hours on a Sunday while on a short trip to DC. When we first entered, I noticed a laid back lounge vibe and wondered where everyone was given there was word of a day party going on there. Turned out the rooftop is where the party was! The high energy crowd, drinks, and upbeat music from the DJ made this an exciting hangout.
Sharese Davis: We had brunch reservations and basically paid $60 to stare at each other and eat cold food. They could hire more staff or something. We paid for bottomless mimosas and didn’t even get that. I ended up buying myself some drinks but all in all this was an extreme waste of money. DO NOT come here for brunch. Go elsewhere, some place that can accommodate you for a decent price atleast. They claim to do everything in order by reservation but that’s not true, we were here since 2 and another table received better service than us and we got here after them. Their time pretty much ran out and they were still Being accommodated. They really need to do better honestly. Waste of money. Actually stay home make your own drinks. Save you money and time.

George Washington's Mount Vernon: what do users think?
JoJo Q: We visited George Washington's Mansion last weekend at Mount Vernon, VA. We had a great time. It's a must see and good for all ages. The mansion and location itself is well preserved and maintained. I love how the tour guides are knowledgeable about the historic place, they are friendly too and answers your questions well. Don't forget to stop by the museum too, they have a lot of interesting historic items that they use back in the days. And good information about The Washington. If ever you got hungry, they have a restaurant right before the entrance that you can also try, or the food court upon exiting the museum. They also have a souvenir shop upon exiting the museum. Overall, We had a great experience.
Mark Wells: Incredible! If you can go, Go! Great for all ages. We took a family of 4, ages 10-40 and everyone enjoyed it. History and information galore that you didn't know you wanted to know, but you absolutely do! We went on George Washington's Birthday celebration which provided so much entertainment. The museum and 4D movie is a must! The mansion tour is worth the time. I'm not sure if Washington himself is there all the time, but meeting him on the estate was a fun surprise.
David Cardone: If you’re a history buff then this is a must. Great little tour of the interior of the mansion with other available tours to add on. They do offer a National Treasure tour that provides some interesting facts about the mansion and grounds in relation to the movie. This tour takes you into the basement of the mansion whereas the $2 mansion tour does not. Beautiful gift shops and there is food available. Good for kids. Check out the Inn next door to entrance for brunch, lunch, and dinner.
Rodricka Elliott: Great for a nature walk. I did some birdwatching while there and enjoyed the scenery while there. A lot of open space to have a picnic after seeing the house and grounds. Overall, it’s a great day all day activity for the family. I did go during the day on a weekday so it was not too crowded.
Green Angel: Great services, very helpful staff, good for all ages. I learned that Washington real body was transferred to the new tomb. The tomb of George Washington on the right along with his wife Martha on the left and 25 other families members are entombed there. The gift shop is huge, they are two sides for shopping. One for decoration stuffs cost up to $2k+, another one for souvenirs gift. Spending about 3hours to walk around and learning history about Father of our country.
Darwin Parker: What a great place to visit! George Washington worked hard to serve and improve life. It was amazing to see where he lived, his tomb, and his legacy. Side note- my son passed out in front of the entrance and the staff was incredibly helpful and prompt to take care of him and get an ambulance to come check him out. The staff checked on him throughout the day multiple times to make sure he was okay.
Stephens Basement: I have always wanted to visit My. Vernon but for some reason never did till yesterday. I am so glad I did. It was a very well maintained national landmark. I did think the entrance fee was a little high but they provide a free audio self tour and the tour of the house is included in the price. The staff was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I have a habit of asking lots of questions and they had an answer every time. George Washington was an outstanding man and leader.
Diana Hidalgo Díaz: The location looks very well preserved and taken care of. The tour guide we had during the house tour was knowledgeable and friendly. The museum was remarkable too. The souvenir shop is big and has a wide variety of items to purchase. I had a very good experience overall!
Brian Cummings: Large and well kept. You can easily spend an entire day. There are a number of far flung attractions. The distillery requires riding the shuttle or driving. The mansion tour costs extra. On busy days, it's wise to book in advance. It is very nice, but calling it guided is a slight exaggeration. You move from room to room with experts who may offer a thirty second introduction and then are available to answer questions.
Virginia VanKeulen: Went on a Tuesday in May. Several school groups but they were easy to avoid. Otherwise not very busy. Learned a lot about George Washington. Really enjoyed the enslaved people tour, the house tour, Martha Washington, the fifer and the beautiful flowers. Rangers were plentiful, helpful and informative. Definitely worth a visit.

Rosebar Lounge: what do users think?
Tiara: I wouldn't recommend this spot for people visiting looking to have a comfortable section to drink and smoke hookah. We booked this section in advanced and told them how many people were in our party. Our section was SUPER small and included an even smaller coffee table and an extended bench. How can seven people use 1 small coffee table. I thought that they would have atleast recommended a larger section based the number of people, but all the sections were pretty much the same size, which resulted in people piling up on benches or standing to get to the hookah or their drinks.
Lane McCall: Pros - Clean environment - Beautiful aesthetics - Great lighting effects - I got compliments lol Cons - Most bartenders are rude - $20 cover (cash only) - Venu is small and cramped - Music was severely lacking
Carson Goff: Come to this bar if you want to fear for your life. Worst crowd of any bar in DuPont. Avoid at all costs.
Tracey Hart: i fly down to dc once in a while to visit friends and family and was very disappointed to learn this place was boring and colorist. They apparently dont hire women of deeper complexions and their waitresses are online arguing, being fatphobic, and unprofessional. I could never do that and expect to keep my job but of course this place has no standards so im not too surprised. Spend your money somewhere else.
Google User: Guess you gotta be a somebody to get a table or section here, I reached out way in advance before my birthday letting them know I was interested in getting a table for when I come celebrate my birthday. Someone responded asked for my contact info, left me on read and never heard from them again. It would’ve been my first time in DC and my first time going here.
Shaneaka R.: The music was great in the room all the way to the back. Loved the decor on the ceiling. You must have to reserve the hookah because it was sold out.
soccerqueen181: Not professional! From the hiring process to the social media presence they do not know how to conduct business. They also refuse to hire women of color which is confusing because DC is referred to as chocolate city. Definitely take your business elsewhere because they need to actually learn how to run an establishment properly.
Ed E: This place is a waste of time and money. Bad music, overpriced drinks, they want to charge a lot of money to get in, bully bouncers pushing people because they feel less in their small brains, small space. There are many other options in DC than this awful place.
Mrs. A: Entirely to small inside. They had it packed and it was no room to dance shoot we barely could walk. It definitely was giving kiss whoever is in front of you vibes. I hated it and I think they were desperate for money the way they squeezed everybody in there. I was literally only there for 15min and that was just tryna use the bathroom. I paid my money just too pee I never enjoyed myself couldn't even raise my hands
Brandon Jones: It might very well be awesome, but when I went, it was deadlocked in the back bar.

Supreme Court of the United States: what do users think?
Mad Mike0082: Just love this city and it never gets old seeing all these amazing historical sites.
Paul Martin: It's nice to be able to see where the action happens. Be sure to check their website if you are planning to visit as a tourist because the building can be closed. I would have liked to see the cantilevered marble staircases inside.
Adam W. Schindler: I’ve been coming to the outside of SCOTUS for years as a place for silent reflection. But never have I gone inside. Wow! What an amazing building. It’s remarkable to me that this 3rd Branch of US Government was totally overlooked when the US Capitol was built. The Court had to use dark old basement rooms and former senate chambers for decades! (See attached photos) And finally when the land and funding was given to this 3rd Co-Equal Branch, it got buried behind the Capitol structure and the mall. Not a prominent placement like the Whitehouse or Congress.
Mehta S.D.: The Supreme Court of the United States is a breathtaking monument worth a visit. The large colonnades present an imposing view. The tour to the courts is something no one should miss. Centuries of history preserved carefully for posterity. The entry is free and worth every minute you chose to invest in there. A must visit for every tourist visiting Washington DC. This place is accessible through the hop on hop off bus tours too.
Fabian Raygosa: We missed the oral arguments but still got to tour the ground. Its the very center of the interpretation of our most important laws and I got the feeling of awe entering here. Many great social decisions were made here. Decisions that make me very proud of the direction we can get to and not the direction we left behind. Even got myself a nice coin from the store.
Michael Ciurea: So we didn’t make it for an oral argument, but there was still lots to see and do. There’s an exhibit on the main level with lots of history on the building and the justices. You can go to the second level and enter the court room and gawk at the high ceilings and important furniture. At certain times of the day you’ll be able to listen to a lecture while sitting in the public seating area. Cool place to visit.
Jaymee Thompson: Gorgeous architecture. Very informative museum style displays Highly recommend for families. Impressive sculptures and portrait paintings of justices. High quality food in the cafe
Sasha Oncley: A very historical landmark, where some of our countries biggest choices in it's history were made.
Traeden Overly: I love the outside it’s so inspiring to see the Supreme Court in action, they post hearing times and you can sit in to a court decision.
John Muhlhauser: Amazing architecture! I absolutely enjoyed my visit! Even though there is a partial government shutdown I saw no signs of trash or negligence here. It wasn't crowded so it made for some really good pictures to be taken. Such a cool place to go and visit!

Belmont-Paul Women's Equality National Monument: what do users think?
Michael Ciurea: Most people will pass by this every day on capital hill without noticing its significance. It’s been used as an organizing office for the woman’s suffrage movement since the 1930s. Lovely place to learn more about our history. The staff are superb and the house is interesting. It’s a bit old and the floors are creaky, but it just adds to the experience.
Kayla O'Neill Carriker: They offer an in-depth tour and admission for free. While this is a historic home featuring historic figures like Alice Paul and Susan B. Anthony, it remains highly relevant today as the women’s rights movement continues. You’re allowed to touch the poles (locates along the staircase) that the suffragettes used to hold up banners while picketing!
Allison G.: Many thanks to my visiting friend who wanted to tour the house and got me exploring my area like a tourist. The Belmont-Paul house's history and the history of the women who housed their movement there were inspiring! Votes for women! Pass the Equal Rights Amendment!
Matthew Transue: This was a must-visit for me on my excursion into the capitol. As much ground as we still must make up to truly have equality, we would be nowhere near the progress made to date without the women represented here. It was humbling to walk through the halls and read of the dedication, sweat, blood, and tears that went into the changes they championed. I hope that everyone visiting D.C. takes the time to visit this monument, and takes away some of the inspiration I did.
Shandi Darnell-Shifflett: Beautiful house showing all kinds of women's suffrage memorabilia. They offer tours as well which are informative and interesting.
Natalie Sweet: Go as fast as you can to the best of the NPS treasures! Excellent rangers, and you will get to touch the desks used by the women of the NWP, along with the banner poles used by the Silent Sentinels.
Maureen Elias: Great place to just sink in the history of the women's suffrage movement. The staff was excellent and you get to interact with some of the items.
Response: Thank you for visiting and sharing your thoughts!
Sam Quincy: Amazing museum and monument to the National Women's Party and the whole gender equality movement. A must stop. Right near the Supreme Court building.
Maria Limarzi: Headquarters of the National Woman's Party, this historic home in Washington DC documents the fight for passage of the The Susan B. Anthony Amendment (19th) and the ongoing work of the Party in support of women's rights. Excellent NPS Rangers give entertaining commentary.
James Epting: Awesome Tour Guide. Zach was simply amazing on the history and every peculiar fact. Personal tour is a must!!

U.S. Navy Museum: what do users think?
Ari Rang: I am interested in military history and especially Korean war. While visiting DC, we found this Navy Museum. It is not the easiest museum to get in because it is located in Navy yard. First you need to register at welcome center so you need passport with you or ID is ok if you are US citizen. Children do not need ID if with a parent. There were many workers going thru same background check process so be prepared to wait 30 to 60 minutes. People at the office were nice and waiting room has A/C. Museum is in two buildings. Main building has mostly WW2 history. Second building has nice stuff from Korean war and also a little from Vietnam. We found cold war exhibition pretty interesting. Gentleman at the main building was very helpful assisting us. There were no other tourists at that time so it sure was exclusive visit.
Adrian Nagle: What a gem! We made a point to visit here while in D.C. My daughter is a huge fan of World War II Naval history and this was the place to be for her. Much of the museum is dedicated to World War II. Many gun turrets are displayed (manufactured in the museum building?). There are displays for many aspects of the Navy in World War II including Midway, Coral Sea, Japanese artifacts, ship navigation, and large detailed models of various World Ware II ships. I learned many little insights at these displays. There is also early Navy history at the front of the museum. The fight top from USS Constitution, an example of USS Constitution gun deck and construction display are very interesting and educational. My only complaints are some artifacts could have more detail (some did have QR code to learn more!), and the models inside glass cases were difficult to see due to reflects from light sources and nearby museum artifacts. We were the only ones in attendance. It takes effort to register and access the Navy base to get to the museum. I recommend filling out paperwork from website ahead of time. If you are interested in Navy history, I highly recommend this location!
Jeff H: Tons of great information and exhibits and was not very busy. Only downside is the process of getting a day pass to get on the base.
Ted Kidwell: We love going here this a great military museum to visit they have so much to see and each time come back to hear the have new things to see. We have learned so much each time we go here. This a great place for the hole family. You will like it we do a must for history buffs and military history buffs. They have some very good staff there website's have lots of good information as well.
Michael Sawyer: This museum is on a secured base. Make sure if you are not a US citizen you bring your original passport and another ID or you are not allowed to enter. Went to check in turned in copies of passport and waited 15 minutes to be told the passports had to be original. Not sure why we were not told this as we got the paperwork that had to be filled out. If you are a US citizen 18 or older you need your drivers license and know social security number. Poor communication and should have been stated on the site. I’m sure the museum is great, but didn’t get to see it Hopefully this helps people visiting from other countries.
Beatriz Benjamim: A little bit tricky to get into the museum, you have to go all the way around the fence and search for the only available entrance. The staff is very nice and helpful. The shop closes at 2:30 p.m. so if you want to buy a souvenir, make sure you get there earlier. It is very detailed and has a lot of mini ships and boats. Make sure you also go to the submarine museum which is right next to it! Enjoy =)
Seth Freedman: My wife and I went down to DC to attend her cousin's wedding. We had such a great time at the Navy Yard. So many cool things to see. There is a lot of history here. I wanted to visit the Navy art gallery they have here but we didn't have the time. There's always next time. Just a side note you do need security clearance to get into this area. We plan on making a trip down for family vacation.
Barry Yen: Good and nice small museum
Robert Springer: This past Pearl Harbor Day (Dec. 7) I paid a visit to the National Museum of the US Navy at the Navy Shipyard in Washington DC. Built in 1799, the Shipyard is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and as a National Historic Landmark, and it is the oldest shore establishment in the US Navy. Being an active military installation, home to the Chief of Naval Operations and several other commands. You will need your identification and will have to pass a security screening to visit the museum. By DC standards it is a small but very interesting museum.
Jooma1572: Great Museums. Beginning of the Navy up to WWII in one building, Modern age in the other. Great models of lots of different ships and planes. Loved the informative displays and the staff was very friendly.

British Embassy Washington: what do users think?
Henry Myers: In 2018, future Royal guard Prince Henry present me with two sets of pictures revealing; "Elizabeth Barhite,"... Henry's 18k for coke wasn't good enough
Joanne Boice: I called with an important question today. The lady who answered couldn't have been nicer or more empathetic.
Sonny Ng: One of the larger embassy in DC, it's a labyrinth of stylish Georgian buildings, regal paintings and statues, even an ornate English garden in the back, definitely more than a pretty penny of prim and proper setting for teas and biscuits. The staff were polite and curt, kinda snotty in the subtle English way. I only did the visual superficial tour so can't testify to level of service provided by the embassy.
Andrea Rosario: As an American, I don't think I've ever experienced such an unresponsive embassy (the automated system literally hangs up on you). It intrigues me that British people put up with this kind of service.
gerard lyons: Had a great dinner here with wounded warriors foundation. The building itself is beautiful and teh Ambassador was a great host. His parents were visiting to from UK and we sat with them at dinner, such a fun older couple!
christine savage: Very un informal no help at all
Nadya Taylor: Wow. It is true that if I could leave negative stars I would do so. You can't speak to anyone on the phone, consulate transferred me to a message not a real person. When I emailed them with a simple question whether a green card holder would need a visa, they responded that they do not handle visa questions at Washington location and I can call and pay so much per minute plus a cost of phone call to get some help.
Matt Warren: No idea why so many of the reviews of this place are negative. I lost my passport and wallet whilst travelling the USA. Booked an appointment for an Emergency Passport online, followed the process and they even mailed me my Emergency Passport to a hotel I was staying at later on in my trip so that I could continue my plans. I had no issues using the Emergency Passport and the Embassy were even helpful and responsive to me when my scheduled flight out of Miami was cancelled (due to Hurricane Irma) and I had to get a flight out on a different date.
London Eevee Tokyo Ebisu - Swanslade 恵比寿-スワンズレイド: I like visiting the British Embassy, because we'll I am British and I live in New York. Whenever I'm in the Washington DC area I always visit. The place is excellent, clean, and the staff are polite. The building is beautiful too. I just don't get why everyone else has a problem!
Julie Kuhl: I have ONE simple question and what do I get? I get the worst British accent and a circle of nothing and I mean nothing. I need a working number for the Gov.UK. HM passport office. I got more information, better information from the United States immigration offices but I did not get a working phone number. What is the deal? Are they not here to help us? Seems to me that they, like the American government are off this week! I am so frustrate. If anyone has the correct phone number for the British Passport office please post it, post it anywhere, post it everywhere! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

National Christmas Tree: what do users think?
Elizabeth Valdes: A lot of history and places to visit at Christmas it was beautiful they had the big National Christmas Tree and a smaller Christmas Tree for each state or territory very nice organized.
Jenna DeFosse: A festive outing, this year (2019) the state trees were not arranged in a circle like they have been in the past I think, so that was a little odd as some trees were off on separate pathways. The trees are nice if you take the time to look at the ornaments on each tree. Might be nice if there were outdoor heaters here.
Rachel Rachel: Really nice to see at night, but also not bad to see during the day! It’s certainly not as crowded if you visit during the day, although you won’t see the nice lights. Also- very cute trains running around the main tree. There are smaller Christmas trees for each state in the U.S., each of which is decorated by ornaments made by children from a particular school in the applicable state.
Suman Adhikari: Recently visited this place and was really impressed by this Christmas tree just in front of the White House in the South Park. The decoration was very good from top to bottom and there were also miniature of few small localities with small running metro trains through those localities. I could not taste the food they had there but the smell was good ..lol
Mustapha Amazouz: This is my first ever TripAdvisor review and after visiting this lovely restaurant I felt compelled to do so!!! The whole experience from our pre-dinner drinks to the end of the evening was first class. The staff are all welcoming and helpful and the service was very relaxed and we weren’t rushed at all even though the restaurant was very busy. The food was superb and I had the Belly Pork with crackling which was divine!!! We will definitely be back again for sure and I can highly recommend it, you won’t be disappointed!!!
Karen Crespy (Crespygirl): Always beautiful and love each state's tree along the path. Big nativity on one end. If you can get there for any live performances and reindeer, it's a treat. Can be crowded, but generally everyone is well behaved.
Andrew Griffiths: Not as fanciful as it used to be. All ornaments are the same style spheres that everyone fills up (or rarely, paints) with things from thier state. The lights and stars are all the same. I remember years ago the trees were very unique and there was a giant Yule log that was burning which offered great warmth to the visitors.
Joey G: This tree is definitely a lot smaller than expected. The tree in Rockefeller Center in NYC is so much bigger, which is strange since this is consider the "National Christmas Tree." Nonetheless, it's a nice tree, but nothing really spectacular. If you don't get the opportunity to see it, you're not missing much.
J P: Very nice display of the Christmas tree and all states/ territories! However, it’s not very well designed. It does not accommodate the large volume of spectators, due to its poor traffic design.
Ev. P.: I loked the fact that its of the 50 states had its own tree around a big one which was decorated according to each state's culture. The atmosphere was festive and beautiful.
