The Tombs

Visited back in May and hadn’t left a compliment yet! Nice and cozy down below. Had a back corner booth for the 4 of us. Good food, nice bottle of Prosecco…dimly lit. Very friendly waiter, good vibes. Big fan of The Exorcist, been wanting to go for years knowing a scene was shot inside, also sweet that the house and steps are right across the street on Prospect. Lovely Georgetown evening. Will definitely be back.

If you google “American college bar” they just point you to a picture of the Tombs.

The hot chicken sandwich was tasty, if a little bit small for the price. The wings were good spice level.

The old bay fries are something else entirely. Will be using old bay when I make fries at home from now on.

The server behind the bar was super nice, took the wings off the bill when they came a bit too late.

This is a hidden gem. I couldn't have found it even if I googled it. The only reason I found it was because I wanted to visit the stairs from the exorcist. And after we've been there we wanted to have something to eat.

As I wrote before, this restaurant is a hidden gem. Totally worth a visit. Really friendly staff. The woman (who worked Monday afternoon 31/7-23 was super. She was very friendly and helpful.

Nice drinks. Great food. A nice atmosphere. If you're in the neighborhood you must try this restaurant.

Great place to get quality basic American cuisine.
My Shrimp and Grits were good.
Glass of wine - $9, Srimp and Grits - $20, surcharge - $1.09, and tip = $38

The Tombs is an iconic Georgetown bar, an institution to be more precise.
Excellent service and vibes, definitely worth visiting while you're in DC.

Fun find on our trip to DC! We sat at the bar and ordered drinks and were served quickly and efficiently. Didn’t order food but the food other people got looked and smelled good, like the Buffalo wings. The space was pretty small, we were lucky to find an open seat at the bar. It has a college vibe. They offer pitchers of beer.

I recently went to the Tombs with a couple members from my coaching staff after a game. It was during one of the March madness tournament games, so there were a lot of people there. Luckily, we had a booth that was comfortable and adjacent to the crowd. Our host was good, she did a great job, getting our drinks and food in a timely manner. A lot of energy at this place, most will consider it a College Bar. The food was fantastic. I love the nachos. Look forward to going back again.
