Spark Pizza Dc - Washington

We went to Cortez for NYE and I couldn't have had a better experience. The event ticket was an open bar for $60 for the whole night, the bartenders were friendly and in a festive mood, and I can't wait to go back! We went to Cortez once before during the Halloween weekend and had a great time then as well. Really well made drinks and snacks. A true gem in the middle of DC!

I’ve been here a few times and have loved it every time! I held a birthday party here. You can reserve half the rooftop for free! It was such a great experience. We loved the drinks and service. It’s usually very empty not a lot of people there. So if you have a big group, it’s awesome because you can pretty much have the place to yourself! It also has great views of the Monument. I’ve heard the margs are really good too.

Nice, cheap, happy hour, bartender was great! I could not drink and he made me a virgin drink and made it look like a cocktail for me. It was so good that my friend ordered my drink and added rum lol. You place your order at the bar with the bartender, there are QR code's everywhere. Then somebody else brings you the food. You can mix the tacos anyway you like. I got one chicken and two fish. The chicken was okay. The fish was good but they put way too much slaw. I would a still order again and just brush some slaw off. Great experience overall. We sat on the roof, it's half covered, half uncovered. Conveniently for us we sat on the covered side and it began to drizzle in and out. My only con is I kind of got stuck in the bathroom on the main floor, lower level. The doors are odd. I wish I took a photo. I would definitely return!

Nice vibe on a summer day. The many fans blowing in the rooftop make it more comfortable. The tacos are pretty good too!

Uuuuhhh what was that?? I was browsing Instagram and saw this cute rooftop bar in the area. I'm always in the Shaw area and never noticed this bar. When we arrived, no one greeted us so we just seated ourselves. After about 10 minutes we noticed no one came over to take our order or anything. The person at the table next to us said we had to order at the bar (which is fine, but there was nothing indicating to do that). I had a fish taco and a frozen margarita. The taco was okay but the margarita taste like flavored water. I had a dry experience and have no reason to come back.
