"There’s a lot going on at Alice on U, but that’s what makes it wonderful. There’s a fast-casual pho restaurant on the bottom floor, arcade games on the second, and a bar playing hip hop and R&B jams on the third. The theme, as implied by the name, is an ode to Alice in Wonderland and the venue has curated a loopy, surreal experience to match. There’s crystal chandeliers, beaming lights and a hallway mural painted in neon colors. It’s the perfect place for an adventure, but also great for anyone more excited about the food waiting downstairs on the way out. But note that the kitchen shuts down at 10pm, four hours before the bar. " - omnia saed
"Alice in Wonderland themes are everywhere these days, but Alice on U Street is in a league of its own. There’s a fast-casual pho restaurant on the bottom floor, arcade games on the second, and a club playing the latest R&B hits on the third—all wrapped up in crystal chandeliers, neon lights, and quirky hallways that will have you feeling a little loopy. Amidst all the excitement, it's tempting to skip over the food at Alice and head straight to the dance floor, especially since you can’t bring it up with you. Don’t. The pho is crafted from a family recipe passed down from the owner's mother, who also happens to be a cook in the kitchen. And the crispy chinito wings, tossed in a sweet sesame and scallion marinade, are a hit." - tristiana hinton, omnia saed
"Alice DC is a TikTok fever dream. There are so many things to do here that you and your third-tier can spend an entire evening bypassing the small talk for arcade games instead. The theme, as implied by the name, is an ode to Alice In Wonderland and the U St. spot has curated a loopy, surreal experience to match. There’s crystal chandeliers, beaming lights, and a hallway mural painted in neon colors. You'll find a fast-casual pho restaurant on the bottom floor, an arcade on the second, and a club on the third. Time here is a construct, so the hours will fly by." - Omnia Saed

"Situated at the nightlife nexus of 14th and U Streets NW, Alice DC opens a psychedelic portal to fast-casual pho bowls upon entry, a video game corridor framed with fluorescent murals of mushrooms, and a DJ-driven nightclub with bottle service up top." - Tierney Plumb
