"The Wash is a kooky little Capitol Hill bar that can shapeshift into different kinds of nights. A chill booth catch-up with a few beers is achievable on one end of the LED-lit space. On the other side, folks might be a few vodka sodas deep, dancing to a DJ spinning lyricless EDM. The signature cocktails here sound promising, like black tea-infused gin with Campari and crème de banane, but they’re all a bit lifeless—stick to canned stuff or well drinks. The upside is that after all that liquid goes down, visiting the dueling themed bathrooms—a searing red “tanning bed” and a sage-tinted desert thunderstorm—is just as fun as the bar itself." - Aimee Rizzo
