"I’ve been here many a time for work happy hours. When they first started doing breakfast sandwiches I went and was not impressed! However I came here a few weeks ago and tried their breakfast sandwich again — so much better! What a turn around. Good spot for brunch especially when it’s nice out."

"Always a great time at Dacha! Noemi was our server and she was so kind & attentive. The espresso martini was a perfect way to start a night out in DC. Also I really loved the festive holiday decorations."

"In from out of town. Was highly recommended from one our friend. Didn’t disappoint. Our server, Angela, was fantastic. Our cups were never empty. Try the pretzel, one my favorites to pair with their great beer selection."

"I recently visited Dacha in Shaw, and while I’ve always appreciated its vibrant atmosphere and great drink selection, my latest experience left me disappointed, particularly with the food quality. Let's start with the positives: the drinks are still adequate. The cocktails are decent and the imported beer selection is expansive, making it a great spot for day drinking or night out. However, when it comes to the food, it feels like the kitchen was having an off day on April 13, 2025. Unfortunately, the dishes we ordered fell flat. The eggs in the Benedict were overcooked; I was looking forward to that perfect runny yolk, but instead, I got a dry, under-seasoned rock. The potato pancakes, serving as the base of the Benedict, were dense and tough. Overall the dish was a letdown, especially as it is a standard brunch item. The ahi tuna bowl was under seasoned and the tuna had a mild fishy taste. Not what you would expect from fresh ahi. The fried pickles were another disappointment—hard and lacking in seasoning. The watermelon feta salad was a struggle to enjoy. The watermelon was overripe and mushy, with hardly any feta to be found. The only exception to the underwhelming food was the pretzel, which was, thankfully, soft and salted well. If you're just looking for a drink and a light snack, the pretzel is a solid choice. In summary, while Dacha has great atmosphere, I can't recommend it for a full meal. I hope they can return to the quality I once loved."

"Stopped in for a drink on Labor Day. Really cool location / vibe and rich beer assortment! Didn't eat but food looked good. Dog friendly. Highly recommend!"
