The Commodore DCB+

1636 17th St NW, Washington, DC 20009 · Pub, American restaurant · Dupont Circle

Lively neighborhood pub for drinks and elevated bar bites with some service and surcharge quirks; great wings, tenders, and pretzel, but manage expectations on noise and policies.

The verdict

The Commodore DC delivers solid neighborhood pub quality with strong food execution on wings, tenders, and pretzels that earn consistent praise. Occasional quality variation—cold items, oily fries, portion inconsistencies—prevents a higher grade, though lively street appeal and seasonal decor create genuine neighborhood draw. Friendly bartenders and reasonable pricing support its reputation as a reliable local favorite, though service slowdowns during peak hours and disclosed surcharges temper the experience.

One caveat: Surcharge disclosure frustration and stacked gratuity screens noted by multiple guests
