Best Restaurants with Dancing in Penn Quarter

The food and service are always great. The highlight for us was probably the spiral cookie dessert with banana ice cream - not only delicious but a great presentation. My only suggestion would be to lower the music - it was a bit difficult to hear each other.

I’m a regular at Jaleo and have been enjoying the food there since they opened years ago. Food remains delish. And they’re always adding new dishes to the menu. Today I tried 4 selections I’ve never had before and they were all wonderful: tuna tartar with trout roe cone, fish soup, fried eggplant with honey and Andalusian cheesecake. Sooooooo good.

This was our first time eating Cuban food and definitely will be back

Lucked out and came for the first weekend of their Bottomless food and drinks brunch and it was well worth it! Planning to return as soon as I’m back in town. Tried new menu items and loved everything we had. Highly recommend.

The only thing that turned me off was that every table around me were greeted by a server or performers. We had to ask for someone to come and explain to us how to order and what would make our first visit more enjoyable. Now that I’ve “experienced” the restaurant, I will know what to do and not waste 45 minutes trying to figure out how to order and not miss more performances. Since time was limited to two hours, I was worried that we would not have enough time to eat or drink. After placing an order we waited an additional 30+ minutes for our first drink to arrive then our food. Wasn’t sure if we had enough time to order a second drink, which we did but had to drink it fast as our two hour dining experience was over.
