CODE RED,

2440 18th Street Northwest, Washington, District of Columbia 20009

"I’ve never had such a great and welcoming experience at a place before. We went a few months ago, and it’s been one of my favorite places by far. We went basically right after they opened at happy hour and were sat at the bar. The host was very nice and chatted with us a bit. The bartender was so professional and helpful and gave great recommendations on foods. We ate from the happy hour menu and ate chicken wings (I literally got two servings because they were that good), wagyu sliders, calamari, and grilled octopus. I loved the vibes, almost felt a bit under dressed walking in there but they make you feel so welcomed it didn’t matter. Had about 6 drinks between me and my husband and had like, 4-5 appetizers. Only spent about 95$ before tax. Was GREAT."

"Everything here is amazing. The food and drinks are delicious, the service is perfect. We were there for Happy Hour and it was such a a great experience. Tuesday is the best, when they have fresh Oysters on the menu. Reservations are highly encouraged, but we were able to sit at the bar to enjoy our experience."

"I went to Code Red during Halloween weekend and I can definitely say it was a vibey experience. I love that you genuinely feel as though you are in the Prohibition Era from the music being played down to the decor. When you arrive, you knock on the door and wait for the person at the entrance to open the door and welcome you. I loved that! The gentleman that welcomed us brought us in right away. We were seated promptly. The drinks I ordered were crafted well. I look forward to going back to Code Red to try other cocktails on the menu. This spot is definitely a nice addition to Adams Morgan."

"Heard about this speakeasy in Adams Morgan and decided to give it a try. This was originally Milli and Al’s which we were regulars to back in the day! As you enter through the heavy iron door, you are immediately transported to the prohibition era. The vibe is chill and loungie. Perfect for date nights, birthdays or to just grab a drink. I did feel the drinks were a little on the lighter side but were very well priced for the vibe and concept. We also ordered the truffle fries which were not seasoned well and almost on the softer side. However, they had decent food options to go with your drinks and also has an experience service that costs $20 per person and they bring the drinks cart to you and make the drinks right in front of you, I would go for it if it’s a date night or want a fun experience. Overall, a decent speakeasy to grab a drink and get transported to the 1920’s. Cheers!"

"Parking can be hard to find, but there's a lot across the street that is 0-1 hour for $8 I believe and anything more is max price at $24 which is steep but if that's your last resort go there. When arriving the security guard was super friendly and gave us the opportunity to knock and say the code to get in. Sorry cant tell you it here! The guy checking us in was extremely accommodating. Checked us in with our reservation (highly recommend). He made sure everything was alright along with the server. We came during happy hour 5-7pm on the week day. There are 3 cocktails and a number other drinks available during this hour (see pictures attached). A number of small plates. Everything came out fresh, fast, and most importantly delicious at a good price. Whenever happy hour ended we ordered the bone marrow and wagyu sliders of which were fantastic. I only wish the marrow dish came with more bread. Atmosphere was excellent. I have no complaints. I loved my experience here. And highly recommend you coming here for a date or just coming for drinks/food. I definitely will be back!"
