The Tombs 1226 36th Street Northwest, Washington, District of Columbia 20007

"It is the perfect old time dive bar/restaurant. The weight staff is great, the food is good. The food is just normal food that you don’t have to work too hard figure out what’s in it. Lots of college students. Lots of parents and grandparents. It really is a place where everyone is welcome, if you can’t have fun at the tombs, you just don’t know how to have fun"

"We love The Tombs. Been going for years. We absolutely LOVE the bartender Joy. She's young but old-school ... meaning she knows how to keep bar patrons and coworkers alike in line. We only go to The Tombs when she is there. Food is quality. HH is reasonable."

"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."

"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."
