Gave Barcode 3 star rating initially because of my lack luster time the last time there, must have been an off night "Covid/Xmas" and all. I will change my rating as I have experienced Barcode at other times to be a go to spot in DC for good happy hour and hippy late night with a good party feel.

We went there yesterday for brunch. I had the shrimp and grits, which was enjoyable. The brunch includes your choice of two mimosas or sangria. I suggest getting the sangria, as the mimosa is small. The music was good. We had fun

I came here from out of town for my birthday weekend and this place did not disappoint. The pizza is amazing and the service is great!! The blue magic cocktail is chefs kiss. I had to compliment to the owner. The ambiance is amazing. The DJ is awesome , a very mature and elegant experience.

These guys were super friendly, attentive and made me feel welcome. There was plenty of seating and staff. They kept apologizing for the speed of food service but honestly I didn't notice. The drinks came quickly were even more quickly dispatched. I'll be back !

Terrible service and WAyy overpriced food We waited 25 mins until we decided to finally ask a server what the hold up was as the place was almost empty Its 50 $ for all the food for brunch which made 0 sense and the drinks were very weak

I was not feeling this place, this time. The DJ was spinning good had the crowd grooving. But that is it. I am not sure if they were short staffed, our waitress although very nice was extremely slow. It was way too hot in there. Not sure if they purposely keep the AC on low, but It was cooler outside then inside. The food was ok, I had chicken and waffles, I think the chicken even though it was crispy needed a tad more seasoning. Pre Covid-19 this was my joint now I don't know..

Get the turkey burger sliders!!!! They are so so good. Honestly the best turkey burgers I’ve ever had.
The staff is attentive and the DJ was awesome. The crowd contributed to the vibes immensely. It was a great time and I would go back :) menu is a little on the pricey side.

I went for brunch on a Saturday from 12-2pm... It was practically empty. So if you are looking for a nice "social distancing" full crowd do not get there before 2pm.. I can't speak for later in the day. I had the shrimp and grits which were great and sangria. My friend had the chicken and waffles which were not seasoned and did not come with a thick belgian waffle...not great.

Was there the other week with our project team, decent happy hour options and pricing, nice bar tenders, and the folks seemed to enjoy the pizza. Would go back, but maybe with a smaller group of us so we have an easier time in the bar area with seating. Only managed to grab two of the pizzas for pictures.

Finally made it back to this location for brunch, I hadn't been since prior to covid happening and while it wasn't my greatest brunch experience I will say the service was solid, the venue is perfect if you have a large group, and the food itself was really good. So the first unfortunate part is that they aren't doing a bottomless brunch service currently so the options are $35 for an entree and either two mimosas or sangrias. The second issue was that the mimosas themselves weren't all that strong or more so consistent with regards to the juice to champagne ratio which thus

I came here with my bf for "90s R&B Dinner". With 90s R&B and food being 2 of my favorite things, I was beyond excited. I liked the layout and the ambiance of the place. There were many booths (which I love) and we got seated in one. It was a pretty busy night, but our waitress came over in a timely fashion. We weren't quite ready to order, so we asked her to give us a few minutes. BIG mistake. This was the beginning of our hunt for the waitress multiple times during the night.

When she finally came back, she took our food and drink orders. I ordered Don Julio on the rocks

Awful service. I was waiting at the entrance to pick up my meal, that was ordered in advance, for over 30 minutes! How long does it take to make a grill cheese sandwich and bowl of tomato soup?!
The place wasn't busy.
I couldn't find an explanation for this even if I would want to.

Came here to grab some dinner and drinks at the bar while on a business trip. The bar itself was quite long and there was plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors available. The food menu was quite expansive. I ended up getting the fettuccine alfredo which tasted pretty good. The bartenders were pretty nice and hospitable as well.

Only thing worth noting is that the hours listed on Yelp (the correct times) differ from what's on Google (i.e. it's listed as the bar open till 2am on Monday's when it really closes at 11pm). Just something for the owner to consider revising.

A solid 4.

I like Barcode. Been here a few times over the last 10 years or so and never got around to writing a review...so here goes.

Love the vibe. Love the food. Love the location. Tolerate the parking. Haven't checked out the bathrooms yet but I will next time - and take pics for you find folks. *winks*

The food was phenomenal, particularly as far as "appetizer food" is usually concerned. That mini slider is as good or better than the regular sized burger in most places. Juicy, well-seasoned and THICK for its size and SUBSTANTIAL. A "mini" is almost a misnomer. It

Just finished at the National Geographic Museum just around the corner and was craving some pizza. We were seated quickly and our server was awesome. Very friendly and lots of great suggestions for Hapoy Hour specials and food.

Ordered the winter salad (substituted romaine for the spinach) and margherita pizza. They gave me some molasses thing instead of extra dressing but it was quickly remedied when I asked. My sister had chicken and waffles (waffles were dyed pink in honor of the cherry blossom festival) and a Caesar salad.

Our server really was great, five stars all the way. Didn&apos

Came here for an organization's event. The area that they set aside for us was so small, even though we had like 50 people so we were just standing squished together. Let's just say we got to know each other real well LOL

The venue's layout is a bit strange and even though we were there for dinner, it was very dark and I could hardly see people. So like, get xray vision before you decide to eat here.

Other than that, the food is decent--everything was on the saltier end for me but still good. The skewers were probably the best thing, and they have these little wonton dumpling
