- UUdunopaVIPWashington, D.C. Area •24 reviews4.0Dined 1 day agoThe Pink Tiger, occupying the former Kaliwa space, has undergone a stylish transformation. The improvements are immediately noticeable, from the refined ambiance to the attentive service. We did not have to wait too long after placing our drink and food orders. Big shout-out to Bobby, our server! The food and drinks are delicious, though a bit overpriced. While the cocktails are tasty, I expected more creative mixology for the $17 price point. The "Get Down On It" (vanilla infused bourbon) is tasty. Highly recommend the garlic noodles and Thai pumpkin soup. The serving plates, though visually appealing, are quite large and take up a lot of table space. DJ and vocalist Jeremy is AMAZING!!! Overall, The Pink Tiger is an energetic addition to the Wharf with great service and a versatile menu. We look forward to returning.More infoPink TigerPrice: Expensive• Asian• Southwest Waterfront•3.7
- BBeatriceWashington, D.C. Area •1 review4.0Dined 2 days agoThe restaurant is very clean and upscale. The host greeting you was professional. Unfortunately there were several inconveniences that occurred during the night. We ordered off the 3 course meal. We gave the waitress each of our orders. Someone in my party is GF and the dessert options were not GF. She said she would look into if the sorbet was GF and what flavors they had as an accommodation. She never followed up. First course came, lettuce wraps were delicious. Good amount of food. We waited over 20 minutes between our first and second course. When the second course finally arrived, the wrong order was brought. They brought the correct item within 6 minutes but still was awkward to watch my friend eat a quarter of her meal while I waited for my correct item. Prior to dessert, they bring you hand towels to wipe up. Nice touch but the scent of these towels is foul and overbearing. So much so that when you are eating and the table next to you uses them, it distracts from the meal, in addition to personal use and the scent remains on your hand. My guest went as far as to go wash it off because she could not tolerate the smell. I think a non scented option would be much better. When dessert came, both cakes were packed to go. So I opened the to go container and ate the cake out of that even though I said Id eat it in person and my friend would take hers to go and give to me, still disappointed she didn’t get a GF offer/option. Overall, given that this is supposed to be a fine dining option, I was disappointed by these mishaps as a first time guest who wanted to enjoy a luxury experience.More infoPhilippe Chow - DCPrice: Expensive• Chinese• Southwest Waterfront•4.3

If you like spicy, ask for the spice bomb to be added to your ramen, it’s got the perfect ghost pepper kick!More infoChaplinPrice: Moderate• Japanese• Shaw•4.7
