The Renegade VA

There are a variety of cuisines on the menu ranging from Southern, Thai, Korean, Greek and Bar fare. We have sampled most dishes on the menu and they're all delicious. The fried chicken, pretzels and queso, ribs, lemon grass beef and corn dogs are 'some' of our favorites. Renegades is a great place to hang and have yummy food!

The moment my friend & I sat down, our bartender Paul greeted us with a big smile & took our orders. We thought hh was over but realized it was till 8pm. Ordered a couple apps & our favorite by far is the pretzel bites (spicy cheese!), Vietnamese lemongrass beef, & cumin cauliflower. Live band & sports bar atmosphere. Certainly plan to return!

This was my first time going there. I had a great time. They had a band that played great music, had me dancing the whole night. The food was good.

The food is DELICIOUS and the staff is so nice and fun. They are so supportive of the homies and as an alum I love that. Definitely come here for a fun time! They have events/activities almost every night (live music, open mic, bingo, salsa, etc). The best in Clarendon!

Can’t thank Paul enough for taking care of our group. Renegades is a great place to catch a game, a night out, or open mic night. I constantly bring out of town friends here and they always rave about it being the best place we go. Saturday nights with the live bands are a must. Thank you renegades!!

I visited the DC area this past weekend. I grew up in Philadelphia and live in South Jersey. I am a life-long Eagles fan and I really wanted to watch the game however I realized that the Eagles-Titans game would not be televised in the DC area. I googled "Eagles bars in the DC area" and The Renegade VA was the first venue listed in my search. The minute that we walked in, we knew that we were in the right place. Everyone had Eagles gear on. Whenever the Eagles scored, the DJ played the fight song, "Fly Eagles Fly". Teb, one of the owners, was very nice to us. He had an Eagles design sown into the lining of his suit jacket. He took several pictures with us. We had an unbelievable time. The best place to watch an Eagles game anywhere!

Went on a Friday night and the food and service was great. The bartender was the best. Super nice and friendly! They had a live band the night we were there and they were great! I docked a star mainly because the place/crowd wasn't really our style and vibe, and we barely knew any of the songs that the band covered. But everyone else looked like they were having a blast. To be honest, my friend and I came here thinking it was a sit down restaurant so we were surprised when we went in and it was a straight up bar, silly us. But it's probably because we were there at around 10:30 pm on a Friday night so they were done with their normal restaurant hours.. We ended up getting a full on meal because we were super hungry and everything was pretty good. What we ate: -Fried Yucca: DELICIOUS. Highly recommend!! The bar tender said that it was his favorite item on the menu and it did not disappoint! Yucca was perfectly crispy, soft on the inside and it WASN'T DRY. It also came with a delicious creamy (jalapeno/cilantro?) dipping sauce. The fried yucca paired perfectly with my beer. 10/10 -Churros: It came with a side of chocolate dipping sauce. I think they over fired the churros a bit so they were a smidge dry but over all still really good. 8/10 -Veggie Lo Mein: Probably the most disappointing of the food items we got but it was still okay. They didn't use traditional Lo Mein noodles, it kind of look like pad Thai noodles. Also, It was like 60% vegetables so it felt like there wasn't much noodles in the dish. 7/10 -Blueberry Lemonade: Smirnoff Blueberry vodka, blueberry puree, and lemonade. What's not to love. This drink was sweet and refreshing. Super dangerous, I could down a bunch of these. 9/10

Went for dinner and came back to see "So Fetch", the DC area all 2000s cover band. Food was solid, filling, and very kindly priced. Coming back for the show tix we're $5/person. The show was awesome, but left after So Fetch's second intermission because the bar would play country music while the band would take a break. Would have stayed if not for the country music.
