What Joseph P likes about Reliable Tavern:
On top of the classics--all sorts of martinis, old fashioneds, and gimlets--I've experienced great cocktail innovation here. Spinning on their top-in-the-District Penicillin, they make excellent mescal and bourbon/whiskey variations; their South- and East-side gin gimlets are fantastic and minty fresh; and they look to have one of the best bourbon selections I've seen in DC in a while. Great service. View all feedback.

What Delonte Johnson doesn't like about Reliable Tavern:
Charged me 17 dollars for a drink then charged my card and 10 dollars 3 days after I was there. Could’ve said something about a tip instead of stealing from me View all feedback.
