Just went there tonight, which was actually my first time ever - never made it there before the renovation. I really like the place. My wife and I will definitely be back!
I too stopped in to have a look; they did an amazing job on the renovation! Two complaints: 1)it doesn't need to be 80 degrees in the bar, and 2) $6 for a bottle of Sam Adams will correlate to a waste of money on renovations, as it only takes once to sour a patron's impression.
I stopped by there on Saturday night. The place looks wonderful. The menu is expanded and even offers a veggie burger! They say they plan to have live music, maybe even as early as Wednesday. It's really great to have some nightlife on the west side of H street :)
That's fantastic news. I can't wait to stop by. I've seen some people in there the last few nights and I am looking forward to being one of them. I hope the previous commenter is right about the live music. That is a major plus.
Good for them. the old decor was pretty bleak. look forward to checking back in. 6 bucks for the sam adams doesn't offend... the old faded red window seats that used to be there - way worse.
Actually, upstairs will be a lounge with love seats and oversized chairs and a small bar. it's target completion is sometime in May. The owners said they will also have outside patio seating on the 5th street size. This is a completely different place!!!
hwanderer Completely different environment. Great renovations. There are still a few kinks, but considering new equipment and new staff, it was a good night.

Sweet!! I was just at Sidamo and could have sworn that the "workers" were hanging out and drinking beer. We'll be there tonight.

I think 5-6 for Sam Adams is pretty standard. It's a "premium" beer.

The co-owners mentioned that they are working on upgrading the upstairs and turning it into a dance club.

Had the crab cake sando. It was delish. As was the fries. Oh and the Malbec wine is awesome.
