The problem with new place was lack of consistency and image. They had a brunch going on for a while-but that suddenly ended. They also had some Caribbean themed food-but the menu was indecipherable. They had a happy hour, but never advirtized. No real social media presence either. I think when they moved from their first H st place they lost a lot of word of mouth patrons and the new place wasn't well organized or had a clear concept.

I think that's a big reason I didn't have high expectations for what was going on inside. Sorry if this comment is upsetting but it's just a piece of feedback for any business owner hoping to last on H Street... a look of semi-permanence and an investment in the storefront goes a long way.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8835710.post-13586711428035923862014-08-05T08:03:35.884-04:002014-08-05T08:03:35.884-04:00ugh disappointing....we are guilty of not being a ...ugh disappointing....we are guilty of not being a patron more often. huge loss for the communityAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8835710.post-78859952534733176572014-08-05T00:27:04.521-04:002014-08-05T00:27:04.521-04:00verily, a great injustice has been committed by al...verily, a great injustice has been committed by all of us.

All the times I've been there(weeknights and weekend nights), it was either almost empty or far under capacity - a total shame, given the quality of music and BYOB factor. It was a great space. Wonder who is moving in there?Arctic Monkeynoreply@blogger.com
