Creme Cafe and Lounge: Don't forget your megaphone
Crème Café and Lounge 1322 U Street NW Washington, D.C. 20009-4445 202-234-1884  We arrived at Crème Café in anticipation of deliciously, yummy brunch food. Sadly, there was a line out the door and a 20-minute wait. A miscommunication with the hostess left us waiting for our table longer than she’d promised, but once it was discovered, we were seated right away. The restaurant was totally packed...

Ulah Bistro: A Bruncher's Delight
Ulah Bistro 1214 U Street Northwest Washington, DC 20009-4443 202-234-0123 The best part about Ulah Bistro is that it’s reliable. You come in wanting something and you leave getting that exact something you came in for. We particularly like Ulah for its brunch, as we’ve never frequented this establishment for anything else. Ulah is located a mere 10 steps away from the U St Metro exit off of...

@Midtown 1219 Connecticut Avenue NW Washington, DC 20036 (202) 466-7529 Last night the ladies of Sip ‘N’ Tell decided to go check out the “Ladies’ Night” at Midtown in Dupont Circle. We were headed out for a night of drinks and dancing, in a more casual fashion though. We threw on our dancing shoes, but kept the outfits low key. We arrived to discover a 5-7 minute-long line, which...

Eatonville 2121 14th Street Northwest Washington, DC 20009 (202) 332-9672 Sip ‘N’ Tell made reservations for 5 and we showed up a bit late, but we were still seated in a prime booth in a very timely fashion. Right from the jump we had a good vibe about this place. As most do, we ordered drinks upon being seated. We tested out the “Lavender lemonade,” which hits you straight in...

Capitol Lounge: A Total Bust
Capitol Lounge 229 Pennsylvania Ave Washington, DC 20003-1107 202-547-2098 Located one block from the Capitol and two-and-a-half blocks from Eastern Market Metro, this dive bar offers a place to hang out for the mixed crowd. We got lucky on a Friday night as parking is abundant in this area. Our initial impressions are very blah. It’s a very typical bar with a mix of old and young. The...

Introducing Sip 'N' Tell
How it all started. We are sure you are familiar with this story: “I’m so sick of going there!” “Isn’t there anywhere new to go?” “But we don’t know anyone there.” After an hour or so of searching and debating on where to go on a Friday night, we happily stumbled upon a little, unknown lounge, perfect for conversation and drinks (check out our inaugural bar review in the next post) and an idea...
