- BblupvamuVIPWashington, D.C. Area •5 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoAbsolutely loved my experience at Dirty Habit Glass House! The food was excellent, the ambiance was stunning, and the service was top-notch. The whole place is beautifully designed and has such a cute, inviting vibe. The only minor downside is that the bathroom is on the 3rd floor, but it’s a small inconvenience for such a fantastic spot. Overall, I had an amazing time and will definitely be back!More infoDirty Habit | The Glass HousePrice: Moderate• Bar / Lounge / Bottle Service• Penn Quarter•4.3

- SStevenVIPUtah •8 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoI can’t get over how incredible our server was. Elvis immediately acknowledged that we were vegetarians and had accommodations made for even the fixed Valentine’s Day menu. We truly appreciate it. And not to forget, but the food was incredible.

She guide us through the menu very well and carefully for us to make the best experience. We have some wings, popcorn shrimp, with some extra dirty sauce, ( no to spicy for my taste ) but delicious. Tuna tartare and the Dirty fry chicken on point to enjoy it the southern taste. Kudos to Trish for take care of us and make our night unforgettable. Until next time!

- RRonitVIPMiami - Dade •18 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoWe dined at The Smith in DC twice for dinner and enjoyed it so much that we returned for lunch the next day! The food was delicious and fresh, with a menu that perfectly suits an American-style restaurant. The staff was very accommodating, and the pricing was moderately valued. We were very satisfied with every visit. Staying at the hotel across the street made it even more convenient. I only wish I had taken food photos to capture how great everything looked! We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in DC from Miami!More infoThe Smith – Penn Quarter, Washington, D.CPrice: Expensive• American• Penn Quarter•4.6
