This hole in the wall grocery makes sandwiches that outshine basically all of the on-campus dining options at Georgetown. Perfect for a bite between classes. Get the chicken madness -- a delicious melange of chopped grilled chicken, provolone, bacon, mayonnaise, lettuce and tomato -- it's a perfect refueling after a night of studying or a night of drinking at the tombs right next door.

Can't really comment on the grocery, mostly just basic items, as well as wine and beer for all the college parties I guess. If you need to stock up on natural lite, this is your place. They just got a soft serve machine too.

Will come again

Inconsistent; if you're planning on drinking only order beer or wine. I've had the same bartender make the same drink 3 or 4 different ways. The service is friendly -- their one saving grace from one-stardom, but even when I tip heavily, and before the drink is made it never comes out right. I know it's a college bar, but these are basic drinks.

This used to be fine when they had ridiculously low happy hour prices-- e.g. $3 long islands (I'll gamble on quality for that price). But starting this year it looks like they're under new management, and have replaced their attractive happy hour specials with a nothing special $3 natty bo and coors. All other wines, beers and liquors are full price. Sorry, I can get that at 20 different places in D.C., with an establishment that makes decent drinks too.

Food is just as inconsistent; my calamari has come out unseasoned more than once. And the pizza was lackluster. Stick with safe choices like fries. Or even better, do yourself a favor and insist on epicurean or the tombs when your friends want to go to Bulldog Tavern.

Other than that looks like a decent, brand new college bar. Probably will get suckered into going there again.

The one and only true Georgetown college bar, The Tombs brings it on everything.

Drinks: great selection, with bartenders who know what they're doing. Everything I've ordered they make it right. Also have great happy hour specials -- plus great deals on beer all day, as low as $2.59 per glass. Great rotating selection of Hoya themed cocktails as well.

Food: surprisingly good, especially adjusting for the "college bar" aspect. I have been off put by the low food quality of the other bars that claim to be a "Georgetown bar," namely Bulldog Tavern and Epicurean. Only ordered the burger and steak so far. Are they the best you'll ever have? No, but consistently good!

Service: always friendly and prompt, and consistent. Never had a problem.

Definitely recommended if you want to experience a day in the life of a Georgetown student. Ditch the glitzy Bulldog Tavern and head over to the tombs!

Rare place in DC that serves a decent breakfast all day and also has a full bar.

Definitely my go-to place when I'm on a "breakfast for lunch" kick.

You'd be skeptical given the trendy, contemporary interior, but the Crimson belies it's "DC hip" appearance. Make no mistake, this place serves all-American diner fare, and does it quite well. The country breakfast is killer; grits done perfectly, and amazing house made sausage patties. Some of the best pancakes around as well. I usually can't help but get a short stack with whatever else I order.

Service is hit or miss, sometimes even with the same servers. Thus the 4-stars at this point. Will definitely come back though.
