Baby Wale

Great Bar great food. Try pizza and cheese plate. Let Steve fix you a drink. Finish with chocolate whistlepig custard. Love this place.

Great food and music

Had my birthday party in their upstairs event space and it was excellent. Oriana was my staff contact and she made everything so easy and fun. They have the lowest bar minimum of any of the DC bars I priced, and they don't make you put it all one tab. Everyone can buy their own drinks as if it's a normal bar. The space they give you is fabulous. It looks really nice and cool and the location is great. Also great cocktails. Oriana came and found me at one point to let me know we were a little behind on our minimum. Really appreciated the heads up well in advance so we could meet the minimum comfortably instead of all at once at the end when half the people have left! I have hosted private parties at other nearby bars and they are not always so helpful! The bartender was also great and fun. They accommodated my friends bringing in our own cake and lighting candles, which made my birthday extra special. Thanks!

Happy hour was excellent. Food and drinks were top tier. Great stop during Awesome Con.

Was visiting from out of town and this was close to my hotel. Great tasting beers on tap. Also the tomato soup and the mushroom pizza that were part of the happy hour special were fantastic. I would definitely return to this place.

We had a poor experience at this restaurant. The kitchen was painfully slow and still managed to get our order wrong. The restaurant was not crowded at the time, so there is no excuse. The food here was not good enough to justify the time or money.

Very convenient if you are at the convention center.

Great place for a private reception upstairs. So tough to get a bartender's attention down below, even on a weeknight.

A little pricey and loud, service time was fair (not great) and although the waiter was very friendly, we did not see much of him. Otherwise the menu variations were excellent, we loved the old soda styles and the food was great.

Baby Wale claims to take bar food to a new level. Unfortunately that level is below whatever you will be imagining when you walk in the place. The management seems to be singularly focused on avoiding the needs of the customers.Finally, the portions are TINY. Definitely plan on going out to eat after your "dinner" at Baby Wale.

Great drinks and menu. Easy access to the convention center.

Baby Wale has a lovely incredible long marble bar. It's nice for a cocktail but their food isn't really anything to rave about. I loved their potato leek soup but they've taken it off the menu. They have an eclectic mix of steak, papusas, sorry of random things and none particularly stands out. I would eat elsewhere and drink at the bar.

Great customer service. The young lady serving was polite even when someone broke a glass of beer. She was still understanding and respectful of her customers.

Amazing quality, wonderful staff and great environment. Have loved everything I’ve ordered in the many times I’ve been. The buffalo mozzarella porcupine is a particular standout, a unique preparation that looks as good as it tastes. The chicken as well is very delicious and worth the prep time wait. A great place to take groups for drinks, the decor and personalities working behind the bar make for a fun and imaginative environment.

Originally wanted the fish and chips but they ran out...a blessing in disguise! Second choice was the pork ribs. Ummm glad they ran out of f&c. The ribs best I've ever had. Came with cabbage which was lightly dressed was simply a perfect combo.
