It probably depends a lot on their staffing. Been there 5 times in the last year and it was great. Went last month and it was pretty terrible service.

Haha no prob.
I’ve had friends move from Austin here and they can’t seem to be able to find anything that quite matches the Austin vibe. But there’s quite a good bit of variety in nightlife and neighborhoods

Please for the love of god dress in layers. Texans that come here seem to think it’s ok to put on a heavy jacket on top of a shirt. This works in 50 F but below that you need a middle layer

Reply to comment by EverybodyBeCalm in DC's old Vanguard building to be converted into downtown apartments by Maxcactus
That’s what happens when cities and nimbys block housing of all kinds. Only the high margin stuff (luxury/higher end) stuff gets built. As more “luxury” housing gets built (which helps prevent high earning people from moving into low income housing for low income people), builders move to provide lower margin housing

Reply to D.C Hidden Gem by KDest98
Glad you enjoyed your visit, OP! The DC area is top tier in terms of culture, food, entertainment, and nature. Id say what keeps it from being underrated/hidden gem is that the cost of living is quite high for the middle class, so a lot of people move to cheaper areas like Philly or the South bc of it

Just abolish SFH-only zoning and stop making it illegal to build duplexes, triplexes, apartments. Please. It’s not difficult
