This is a vibing spot! The staff are pleasant, friendly and on the ball. The happy hour is impressive. The drinks are great, and the atmosphere is fresh for DC (definitely more of a NY vibe). I thoroughly enjoyed this spot. If you haven’t checked them out, do it! Low-key, cool and stylish.

Such a great hole in the wall! We had a great time at their happy hour good margaritas for $5! Till 7 pm as well every day! The appetizers are standard bar food but they have a specialty burger list if you’re hungrier. If you’re looking for a spot to go before you go out here you go!

Burgers were very good. Bartender was very polite. Owner was present and we talked. He had the bartender’s back when needed. Atmosphere was great, with great service. Drinks were pricey. While there are cheaper bars on U-Street, the prices are what I would expect for dinner and drinks in DC

Ladies and gentlemen, the $16 Cajun burger. Clearly they changed their menu/chef because I could’ve heated up frozen patties with more effort. Take your money elsewhere

Shocked to see that Desperados is a cocktail bar now! Menu cocktails are great, bar is beautiful, bartenders are friendly and know their stuff. William took good care of me and made some great custom cocktails too!

Genuinely 5 stars across the board. Great atmosphere and decoration, prompt yet privacy respecting service and good food. I had the Hawaiian burger and loved the grilled pineapple on it. My partner had a BBQ chicken Quesadilla both were delicious. Looking for a quiet and clean spot open late on U street? Look no further. I’ll be returning.

Desperados Burgers & Bar is an absolute gem! From the moment I stepped inside, I was captivated by the incredible atmosphere that exudes a vibrant energy and warmth. The rustic decor, combined with the dimmed lighting, created the perfect ambiance for a memorable evening.
