Denson Liquor Bar - Washington, D.C.

Great ambiance. Great drink and cocktail selection. Great for an intimate date. Went for my birthday and loved it.

I was pleasantly surprised by the restaurant. The drinks were excellent and the service was outstanding. However, it was a bit challenging to hear conversations because the music was so loud.

Denson is definitely a spot for serious drinkers, boasting an extensive selection of spirits, as well as wine and beer options. The food menu offers upscale bar fare, prepared by chefs with formal culinary training. During my visit, my friend and I enjoyed single malt Scotches and mules, along with raw oysters for starters. He opted for a chicken and sausage "pot pie," while I tried the grilled cheese and mushroom sandwich - both dishes were delicious. Our server, Lindsey, provided excellent service, making our experience even more enjoyable. I would give the service an A grade. Reserving a booth is recommended for a two-hour window, ensuring a well-paced dining experience. Overall, Denson is a fantastic choice for a pre-game hangout, and I can't wait to return for the next game.

Beautiful space and delicious cocktails. Great little hideaway from the commercial character-less area above.

Charming underground lair with seasonally updated cocktails. it's never the same experience twice so I keep coming back!
