Off the Record, Washington DC

It was a cool bar, but just so very crowded. The drinks were good. I had a mocktail for my second drink and it was really good.

Great cocktails and cool DC vibe. Got Oaxaca old fashioned and espresso martini and both were made really well. Bartenders and servers were really knowledgeable and friendly as well

Absolutely fantastic cocktails. The decor of the bar makes it an amazing choice for a date. I can’t wait to come back!

Stopped by with a friend and my wife after a wonderful high end dinner that deserved a nice place for a night’s drink. We decided to try Off the Record and we were very happy we did! Definitely a political vibe, and a place to be seen if you want to in DC. Truly, I’m more interested in the drinks and the cookies and ice cream were delicious! Can’t really tell you about the food, but dessert was delicious and we enjoyed the bar snacks that they bring to your table!

OTR is one of my favorite places to visit. The service is perfect and cocktails are top notch.

One of the greatest bar experiences of my life! Great cocktails, beautiful ambiance, and a trumpet serenade to boot! What a special place.

Drinks are expensive. Cute sitting and romantic atmosphere but customer service is slow and very rude almost everytime I go

Being across the street from the White House makes it a wonderful location of course. The staff are so very attentive and I especially want to mention Nestor. He goes above and beyond. Delicious cocktails, perfect pub fare with a bit of extravagance. Unique, cool art work.

Very unique place to grab drinks and light bites! Service was exceptional and everything was presented beautifully. High recommend for anyone looking for a high quality drink!

A hidden treasure, underground bar. Opposite the White House at the beginning of 16th Street. Expensive but

I've visited Off The Record several times now, and I can confidently say that it's one of the best bars I've ever been to. From the moment you step inside, you're transported to a cozy, intimate space that feels like your own private hideaway.

The drinks here are truly top-notch. The bartenders are incredibly skilled and knowledgeable, and they can whip up just about anything you can imagine. Whether you're in the mood for a classic cocktail or something more creative and adventurous, they've got you covered. And if you're not sure what to order, they're always happy to make a recommendation based on your tastes and preferences.

But it's not just the drinks that make Off The Record so special – it's the atmosphere, too. The decor is stylish and sophisticated, with lots of dark wood, leather, and velvet accents that give it a classic, timeless feel.

What really sets Off The Record apart, though, is the service. Every time I've been there, I've been treated like a VIP. The staff is friendly, attentive, and always willing to go above and beyond to make sure you have a great time. From remembering your name and favorite drink to offering recommendations for other places to check out in the area, they truly care about their customers and want to make sure you have an amazing experience.

Overall, I can't recommend Off The Record Bar and Lounge highly enough. If you're looking for a sophisticated, upscale spot to enjoy a drink or two, this is the place to be. Whether you're a regular like me or just stopping by for the first time, you're sure to have a fantastic time.

This one of the best kept secrets in all of downtown.because its really hard to find! It's one of the best restaurants to check out. The inside of this classy little place is amazing, especially if you want to impress your date!
