I was in Dc for a mini vacation. I came here for the Litty In The City Event. We ate bottomless brunch, We Drank unlimited Mimosa than danced the Day away. It was amazing! . We dont have events like this in New Jersey. I stayed in Dc for 7 days and this place was definitely the highlight of my trip. Thanks for an amazing time. WOULD LOVE TO COME BACK SOON.

I went to the Lost Society for New Years Eve. Overall, my friend and I had good time, but there were a few things that really bothered me. 1) The bartender downstairs wouldnt give my friend and I tap water and made us pay for a bottle of water. On principle, a bar not giving out water for free is absurd. 2) They did not put the ball drop on any TV downstairs and instead the DJ did a 10 second countdown, which was about 30 seconds too early. 3) They had table servers with barely any clothing and full breasts showing. Theres a tasteful way to be sexy and that wasnt it.

Ive been here a few times In the past and had a good time but i never ate food here before. Recently, we came in on a Gilt City voucher and they treated us no different. Cocktails were great as well as the service. There was some confusion due to it being happy hour so our meals came out in happy hour portions because the register rang them up automatically. When we told the waitress she was quick to resolve everything. The food itself was good. I would come back and eat here again.

The hostess told us there was no space for us because we were a half hour late for our reservation. She went to check for us then came back. She sat us next to three empty and set tables... it was a Friday night but it was not busy. Server showed up once to take the order, and came back with the wrong bottle of wine. She didnt ask us if it was the right bottle and didnt even pour it for us. Took her so long to return that wed already drank some of it, because we wanted to drink wine... She said they couldnt comp the bottle, or even give us the one we asked for. She offered us free shots at the end, but we asked for dessert. We got the bread pudding and it was cold and hard as a brick. The steak chimichurri sauce had absolutely no flavor. The worst part was the service. The server was never there. We could have had a heart attack and died in her section and she wouldnt have noticed. We couldnt give a tip because nothing about the meal went well. The ambiance was tasteful and relaxing.

Great location, food and service. Although I was surprised when I arrived at the entrance and the when the guy at the door asked for ID to go to my dinner reservation. Also, my salt and pepper beard was not a dead giveaway that I was over 21.

If you know you know. One of the best rooftops in dc. Happy hour is always kickin. Too many beautiful people!

If you are looking for a good spot with island and around the world vibes, Society is the place. Food, drinks and music are amazing. I like the mix environment. I think I almost have all the food in their menu

I will be posting pictures of @lostsociety food.. drinks and overall environment, so keep a close eye my friends and family. The sweet chili sauce drizzled over the crispy Calamari could have been perfect if they didnt over cook it but still pretty great.

Crazily slow service and charged 20% on a table of 5.To the owner of Lost Society, I am glad to hear that somebody will be reviewing our case since the service that night was terrible and I am speaking for not only my table but the whole section that night. I guess that is why we got 20% charged to make sure they got the gratuity. Somebody surely gave none if they had the option.

This place can get really packed but the drinks and vibes are great.

Used to be a nice spot. Significantly gone downhill. And one of the only places that charges $20 cover to get in. Not worth it.As others have said, extremely overpriced watered down drinks, and a very sketchy vibe. If youre familiar with ultrabar, thats what Lost Society is turning into. Too many other good bars in the area. Pass.

Would give zero stars if I could. This places custom service is an absolute joke. We tried to go here for NYE and were absolutely screwed over. Save your money and go literally anywhere else in DC.

Great place to learn and dance Salsa with Vicent on Tuesdays. They are paid classes from 8 to 9 and then open social.

What here for our class reunions the skin is Bernie Sanders were very nice. The food and drinks are served fairly quickly up on the rooftop.

Great Happy Hour but need more than 2 bartenders especially on.3rd floor

One of my favorite happy hours! Henny on deck and the bartenders are awesome!

Liked the vibe of the place they had just opened a well prior I think still working out bugs. The look is what brought us in but there wasnt much that made us stay would come back once they figure out who they are.

The roof top area was cool and the bartenders make great drinks

Good decent and friendly service. However, the brunch buffet had cold items like chicken sausage and waffles..

Came here for brunch my first time visiting DC. They have beautiful waitresses and a good DJ. Definitely coming again!

O like this spot. Free cover.. good drink prices and a nice rooftop over looking U St

Went there for the first time yesterday...Honestly it was not the best. I go out often to places to eat and drink. When I saw the reviews, I was excited to go check them out just to end up disappointed. First the drinks were not even strong. WHY would you say 3 for 20 and not be specific. I ordered the lost burger that clearly said served with fries so in my mind, that counts as one of the three and not two of the three. They should have clarified that it counts as 2/3. I asked for bacon to be added to my burger but guess what? Burger came to me with no bacon and they didnt even have the decency to let me know hey were out of bacon before bringing my order, so I am prepared. COMMUNICATE WITH YOUR CUSTOMERS!!!! Then what they called truffle fries certainly werent no truffle fries, they were regular fries. Ive had truffle fries at Ipic and whatever yall are serving arent it. Overall I wasnt impressed nor satisfied with the food and drinks

It was a nice place but the Shisha was not that good for the price. We went to our local spot after that has better Shisha and its half the price.

Great Italian Food, Moderate$$$ plus awesome service!

My glass was given to me with lipstick on it & the seats & tables could use a update. The food was good.

Dope spot good food great price on drinks

Wayyyyy too over crowded...the music was okay at best and the drinks were grossly overpriced. (Gratuity is included so dont keep that in mind when decided whether or not to tip the bartender) overall it was too many ppl there to actually have a good time. And i paid 9 dollars for a corona

Good bar. Cool event space.

Great food and good service.

Great Food Phenomenal bartenders Will visit again

Their sangria, while elaborate, was somehow still bland and disappointing. The outside bar has white and rose wine but no red for some reason. I think I got there before the evening rush so it wasnt crowded, but it seemed like the staff were more concerned with preparing for bigger crowds later. But the staff were nice and friendly. Once it got packed it was much busier and noisy than I personally prefer. But it seemed like a good place to meet people.

Very poor service. Doorman turned away a real ID. Did not bother to scan it. Rude managers, inappropriate comments towards female members of party, and absolutely abysmal treatment of colored people. Avoid at all costs.

The DJ is amazing! From the moment we got there, i didnt stop dancing. It was so hard to leave because he played all my jams. Lol The location is really nice. They have a rooftop/hookah lounge area for day or night partying. The bartenders are attentive and make great drinks.

I went to this restaurant during restaurant week and the special was $35, however, the steak was $10 which I noticed after I got the check. Seriously? I didnt even bother to ask about it because the waitress had made so many mistakes with my order and I was just fed up. She never brought my ice cream or second drink, but it was in the bill. I made sure I pointed that out. My chopped salad came without the avocado. It was so annoying. Its one thing to have poor service and poor presentation of food but it taste amazing. Yea, the food was just okay and thats probably because I was hungry. Smh I will not go back.

Diverse crowd, totally chill atmosphere and very uniquely DC. And find Sade... great bartender.

I spent my first New Year count down experience in DC at Lost Society. Huge mistake! I will never come back there and I will recommend everyone I know not to go there for any events. There was approximately 200 - 250 people in the bar for New Year countdown, but there was only 6 single toilets, and two out of the six had the Out of Service signs on. What made it interesting is that the bouncer let certain people use the Out of Service toilets. Two of the girls I were with went to that Out of Service toilet, and the bouncers opened the door and pulled the girls out. The bouncers were upset because one of the girls put her hands on him. Probably my friends were not in the important guest list to use the reserved Out of Service toilets, but if you PULL ANY GIRLS OUT OF THE RESTROOM, of course they will be mad and put their hands on you. My friends and I paid for the same event, and we paid for drinks so we expected to be treated the same as other guests, unless you stated on the ticket website that you will reserve toilets for certain guests. Im not sure how many people were in the special list for special toilets, but if you think four working toilets are enough to serve 200 - 250 people, you are ridiculous. Ive heard good things about Lost Society, but it has become a huge disappointment. And I will not recommend anyone I know to go there.

Awesome nightlife bar and outside seating at upper level

Staff was not kind, they wouldn’t let a friend in because he had out of state ID.

Absolute idiot of a bouncer. Super rude and wouldn’t let one of our friends in because they had hiccups. We had to send them home because of that. When we got in, the bartenders were even more rude and almost felt like they didn’t want us there. I really hope it gets better.

Lost Society bustles during the weekend with the club crowd and some groovy music on the topmost floor. It has two floors. The bottom floor has tables and is much more intimate. The top floor on the other hand leads into a rooftop area, where people can easily transition back and forth between the bar area and the rooftop overlooking the iconic U Street. A great place to hangout in the weekends.

Modern music busy with open back deck . Perfect for a drink and convos

They have a black female bartender that ENSURES your drink is filled and made well!

Made a reservation two weeks in advance. got a call the day before saying that they have moved to only being open weekends. if you cant make a restaurant work during the week on U street, get out of the game.

Good food in a good location. Service is good too.

Great to go dancing on Tuesday Latin music

Best happy hour deals in DC! Second floor bar has more of a meet and greet feel to it. Their rooftop bar has a lot of space and a great view of DC

My wife and I went there for dinner. They had HH on the weekend and it had a good variety. We got fires, chicken sliders, man n cheese, and empanadas. We really enjoyed everything and felt like the HH pricing was a value. They also had beer, wine, and mixed drinks on HH. The dining floor offers a nice visual of the surrounding area. The hostess was extremely nice and we didnt have a wait. The service was quick and the presentation of the food was good. Would go back again.

Ladies, stay away from this place unless you want to be harassed by sexist bouncers. Required attire for the ladies is to be covered from head to toe and don’t you dare take a sip of alcohol before you come in because this is a place for sober people ONLY. Tried to attend this establishment on a Friday night at the advice from a friend who said “they have great music but rude bouncers”. Not thinking much about it because we were both pretty sober and dressed well, we walk up to the line where 4 girls before us got banned from entering because one of them seemed “intoxicated”. I watched the girl, who probably had a couple of drinks that night but seemed totally fine, get told to turn back around with her friends. We were next and at this point I’m staring this bouncer dead in the face to see what he can possibly tell us. He grabs my friend’s ID, who is well over 21, and questions the validity of it because it’s from out of state. (I’m sorry but how many people in DC are actually from DC?) and then the second bouncer turns to my friend and says “you’re gonna need to cover yourself up if you plan on coming in”. Mind you, she is wearing jeans, a crop too with a long sleeve shirt over it but because the long sleeve shirt had a slit in the front and her skin was showing he found it to be too inappropriate. I’m sorry but if seeing a woman well dressed and not covered from head to toe makes you uncomfortable then you shouldn’t be working the door at a bar on U street. So if you’re reading this review, go somewhere else and save yourself the trouble of trying to get in a below average, top 40 playing, wanna be club.

Nice latin night

The location is convenient to restaurants and sports bars

Great atmosphere, great staff, amazing food.

This has been my 3rd time to Lost Society and it gets better each time. Not your traditional joint where staff thinks theyre doing you a favor.If this place is not on your hit list then you must add it right now! The service here, the food here, the atmosphere here is truly amazing. This is where you want to go if you have a large group or a small group.The food is truly astounding the service is friendly, the cocktails are good, the bartender staff is friendly and well learned. This is the answer for going out to dinner....Check it out!!!!

Quaint DC Spot thats more of a Bar/Grill than Dedicated RestaurantWe went here for an early dinner in the middle of the week. We were able to get right in. This is one of those Bar/Grills that has good food but its more setup as a bar for night life in DC. It has a rooftop but I didnt get a chance to see it.I had the skirt stake & it was pretty good. Nothing that blows your taste buds away but still good. My wife had a fried chicken dinner & my kids had chicken tendors. The chicken was a fried a little too hard. Im from the south so they so this spot doesnt have the perfect formally for frying chicken n by a long shot.The service was outstanding. Our waiter was knowledgeable and of the menu & was able to suggest several items & explain food items & how they taste.Overall we had a good meal but wed try another restaurant before going back here since we were on vacation. If youre looking for that perfect spot for drinks and food, especially a bar/night life happy hour ambiance, then this is your place. If youre looking for a great family restaurant, with great food, then youre probably better off going elsewhere.

Great vibe but i find that Im not so crazy about Rooftops anymore. It was also very packed but i would expect that on a Friday night. Unfortunately cant comment on the drinks or anything like that. Overrall, ambience was cool.

Not too much to say about this place. me and my BFF went there in Saturday eve and i was so hungry but unfortunately food was okay and we had everything summer drink it was so spicy that we wasnt aware of and we had no silver ware even after our food serve ......until we ask to different waiter . couch was beautiful. but overall i didnt enjoy @ all.

Delish well priced cocktails

Fun rooftop

Nice decor, tough finding parking so set out a little before they open to have time to park. Ordered the Mac and cheese and cajun flatbread, both were very good. The endless summer cocktail was interesting nice and spicy. Staff was friendly and inviting. Will definitely be back.

Love the bar tenders but the DJ has the whitest taste in hip hop, dont bother asking for a recommendation.

The food is very, very, very eclectic. Did I mention its eclectic? Dont even bother eating here if you like to keep it simple. The bar area is fun and I love the bartenders but it always seems this place is packed and I dont see the appeal. Oh, and theres usually a line. Not sure why.

Good place for drinks and dancing on a Friday or Saturday night

Nice ambience, I had the crab gnocchi. It was ok.... Had Peas in it. Definitely an acquired taste. Music was good etc.

Good happy hour deals, the hummus and pita pie croquetes were tasty. Good drinks as well I recommend the punch.

I was treated to dinner at the Lost Society for my birthday. It was a Friday night and the area was really lively. Lost Society wasnt our first choice (it was Marvins, around the corner, sorry...),when I told my sister (who lives in the area) where I planned to eat she told me to RUN! We decided to give it a shot anyway. We waited for about 20 minutes to be seated, I must admit, I didnt do my homework like i shouldve, I expected the atmosphere to be a little more laid back than it was. Our waitress was very approachable, and convinced me to make a change in my order. I ordered the grouper with mashed potatoes, the waitress suggested i order the potatoes au gratin w/ cheese (amazing choice). My only complaint was on the menu the description of the grouper doesnt say anything about bacon. When my order came back it had bacon on it (I dont eat pork). The waitress apologized and took it back no problem. My friend ordered the stuffed lobster w/ mac and cheese (also good). All in all good food (everything was very hot, even when my grouper was brought back out) good service from an excellent waitress. Id definitely go back.

Nice day club would definitely recommend going to if you are looking for a hip place to go to. Lacking slightly in space but i wouldnt let that deter you from going. Primarily African American. Drink prices are in line with the rest of DC.

The place was rather nice. The bartender/ waitress was reluctant to change my order after I just placed it. I ordered a Chandon for happy hr champagne and was given a different brand. Food was good and fortunately the Diago Sales Rep was their and we were able to sample the Captain Morgan rum bunch which was awesome.

Went on a Tuesday for tacos which were really good. Def go to the bartenders on the inside of the rooftop vs the outside one. Shes not that attentive as the others. Its a nice space.

The roof bar gets easily over crowded and is without without proper ventilation which throws a kink in your dancing plans. They need to watch how many people they let in. Drinks selection is the usual. Nothing earth shattering in terms of cocktails. The dinner levels are cosy though.

I love the rooftop area!

Great food, drinks and music!

I was recently in DC for a business meeting and had time to kill for food and a drink. When i walked upstairs into Lost Society, I was immediately greeted by Jarrod at the bar. He showed to be friendly and responsive to all the questions i had. I was inclined to try the lamb sliders, even though I had never had lamb before. The service was fast and i was impressed by his bottle flipping abilities when making drinks. The lamb and the sirloin were both excellent! I will definitely be stopping by again next time I am in town! I couldnt have asked for better service! Kudos to the Lost crew!

I have only been here for drinks. The bar scene is very nice and I like that there are two floors. The view from the top is not bad and you can see all of U street. The drinks a little pricey. For a bottle of miller light, it was $6. There is also a service charge that is given to every purchase. I like the vibe of this bar a lot. The prices I wasnt a huge fan of. Staff was nice and were easy to get a hold of at the bar.

Super chill during the day

When I went, it was only one bartender. She took some time to get to us but understandably, there was already a large group present waiting to place drink orders. Still though, staff could have increased by at least 1 or 2 more. Theres an outside bar on the top level as well that could have potentially knocked down the first bartenders work load but again she did well - not to take from her. Overall, worth the visit!

I went to Lost Society last night for the very first time and had an awful experience, until the manager Greg rectified it. I was told that my bags were too large to bring in by one of the security people. As I was complying with his directions of where to leave my bag, he became aggressively rude and blatantly unprofessional. He first only mentioned that one of my bags was too large so I was trying to move things into a smaller bag. I went to go upstairs and he yelled at me that the other bag was too large. Now if you know anything about bags, you would know that the size of this bag was actually much smaller than say a large Kate Spade bag or something like that. I came back and had to shove everything back to where it was and at this point he was still rudely yelling at me to hurry up. Once I finished I went upstairs and saw TONS of other women whose bags were way larger than mine! Now Im confused as to why he made such a big stink about my bag, as there were men who brought in not only their motorcycle helmets, but large bulking jackets as well. I would hate to believe that this his lack of civility was due to my sex, age, or ethnicity, but in a misogynistic, patriarchal and often oppressed world one can never be too sure. Im sure it was just because he was just downright hateful.I took photos of several of these bags to show for proof. Its unfortunate that this one guard was so mean for no reason. I understand he was doing his job, but its not what we say its how we say it, and how the customer hears it.Furthermore, Im not convinced that I was the only person there whose bag didnt meet the requirements, yet at the end of the night lo and behold, mine were the only ones that had been put aside in the non secure area.I was so upset by this treatment that I sought out a manager, and was shown to Greg who was on duty that night. Greg attentively listened to my concerns and validated my feelings. He made me feel much better about what had happened and assured me he would look into the matter.I know that oftentimes customers can be rude and nasty, and I get that. At no point was I ever rude, nor anyone in my party. We were very perplexed by how he was treating me, and wanted to understand why.Will I come back? Yes, because at the end of the day, I cant let one bad person ruin what turned out to be a fun night.

It took me a while to check out Lost Society, but since my first time a few months ago, Ive been back at least twice a month! Tuesday night is the best deal in DC. Dinner for two for $35! A big steak to share and two sides. Food here is great and when its not as busy, Ive had some of the best service Ive experienced in DC.

They have the best Happy Hour on Fridays with $2 draft beers. Taco Tuesday is also awesome. Get the chicken tacos.

I didnt eat. I only passed around but looks quite and good.

Another DC Dump. Upon entry, I was behind two women that were turned away by security for having weed in their Micheal Kors handbag. Then, when confronted with a choice to use the restroom you are greeted by a hallway with gender neutral single serving bathrooms. They were all disgusting and I was appalled that even the bottom of my shoes had to be sullied by this filth. The table potatoes chips are doused with truffle oil which is overpowering and not a treat. The burger I ate at 8pm reared it’s ugly head and woke me up at 2am with backdoor butt squirts and violent vomiting. This place is one of the worst in an area with plenty of competition to claim the bottom spot.

The best thing about this place is the outdoor terrace. You can enjoy a refreshing breeze in the DC night as you mingle and have a drink. The music can be hit or miss and some of the staff is a little unfriendly but otherwise a good option for late night drinking/dancing

Amazing vibe, and even better food! I ordered the calamari and sangria. Both were beyond amazing and they provided great service.

Did the free drink from 10-12 event. First got there just a place to talk & chill, round 11 more ppl started 2 show up, definitely around 12 it was starting to get packed. Bar on the floor below but I was in the rooftop. DJ there playing mostly older music everybody knows (but not oldies lol) Started dancing round 11, dont think I stopped till 12 lol, met a few ppl, was definitely worth me coming out, would go again.

Really great private brunch with open bar and brunch buffet. Waffles, sausage, and eggs were delicious and the mimosas were constantly flowing. Staff were nice and prompt with clearing tables and refilling food and drinks.

I love the food. The steak is delicious and rooftop views are gorgeous. I was told to go on Tuesday night because there was a deal going on and sure enough you get a meal for two for only $35. Now thats a bonus. All in all it was a very positive experience.

Everytime I visit DC I come here. Fridays are the best, happy hour specials and a DJ upstairs

Fantastic work holiday party location. We had the full third floor and heated rooftop bar area.

I visited for the first time on 5/15/13. I love the vibe in this place! My friends & I had dinner then cocktails & dancing on the rooftop. Everyone was friendly & relaxed. PS. The bread pudding is rich but amazing! I only had a couple bites to be satisfied.

Very chic upper deck area to enjoy a drink!

Great place for a group gathering.

Good steak and overall a lot of interesting selections on the menu. I also really like the design of the space. Only had one odd experience when they didnt seem to be prepared for brunch, overall Id recommend.

Overpriced when there are other good options in the neighborhood.

Twas a magical journey. The wenches are accommodating, my Lord had the tavern mead, and to his delight, at an affordable bit of gold coin. Dilly dilly

They had a sign on the door that said 2 for 1 rails from 12-1am, the bartender claimed that wasnt true so false advertising I guess? Also their bathroom situation is the worst

There was a blonde female bartender around 5”5- she was was so rude. I waited 20 minuets to order a drink because she kept ignoring me for no apparent reason, I have friends who bartend so I was patient and respectful she was by far the worst, I had to ask her if she was ignoring me for a reason. This was my first time at the place which was not bad over all the music was good also good looking people. I was just mad that they forced me to pay a tip after the service was horrible. I need to talk to my bank about this.

Great drinks, awesome speedy service. The rooftop is very classy, and while not giant, it gives a very personal feel I enjoyed. Been to two events here, and a separate Happy Hour. The bartenders here shall see me again!

My company hosts events here. I have to say some of the best hors doeuvre Ive ever had were served here. The rooftop bar has some amazing views of the city. Professional staff, great selection.

Amazing music and drinks. Perfect for a night out with friends.

I want my 20$ back. Horrible

The place has so many rules...No bags after this hour.No food ordered from the roof bar unless the bartender likes you.However, Major props for the fish tacos with house made hot sauce. Winner!!

My favorite bar on U st. Very nice and relaxing atmosphere. There are two floors. One that is great for dancing and the other that is great for hanging out and watching a game or getting together with friends. highly recommend!
