    Very disappointing night. I booked a couple weeks in advance for lobster Tuesday dinner (specifically chose the option at booking). We order and 10 minutes later they tell us they are out, it is their mistake, they will comp dinner if we see something else we would like. We stay because we need to feed the kids still and have just ok fish n chips. Then we notice a table that came after us gets lobster dinners brought out. We decide to just finish our food and call this night a loss. Get the bill and at first nothing was taken off. Then server says let me take your drinks off (we only had 3 drinks, again just mediocre) and apologizes for their mistake again. I explained at that point how disappointing it was to see people after us get the dinner so she goes back to the bill and gives a small discount and assures me management is being told about this mishap. Not feeling like arguing any further with the kids with us I stupidly paid even though we were told our food would be taken care of. We could have understood an honest mistake from the kitchen but then seeing it still being served and then lying about taking care of our food was what ruined the night for us.

    Dear Shayna, we want to sincerely apologize for the disappointing experience you and your family had during your visit. Unfortunately, due a system error, we ended up with double the expected number of early reservations, which caused confusion and miscommunication between our kitchen and service teams. We completely understand how seeing lobster go to other guests after being told we were out must’ve felt very unfair and frustrating. Please know our intention was never to mislead you, but rather our communication clearly suffered on a night where our team was overwhelmed and scrambling - although this is no excuse. We will be reaching out to you directly to make this right. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience, and we look forward to connecting with you further.

    My husband and I had a delicious dinner at Roofers Union last night! The new decor is absolutely fabulous. Nice ambiance, fast and friendly service, and great food. We will certainly be dining again soon - I heard they have trivia during the week which sounds so fun!

    The service was really rough. The restaurant was mostly empty and it still took forever to get anything. I would not go back here for a meal.

    Thank you for your review and for sharing your honest feedback with us, Zachary. We are extremely disappointed to hear that your visit to Roofers Union was not the best. While it appears you arrived before our opening time for the day so our team was still setting up, this overall experience is not exemplary on the level of service that we pride ourselves on and we would love an opportunity to make this right. If you would consider us giving us a second chance, please email us at info@roofersuniondc.co m so we can ensure the red carpet treatment for your next visit. We hope to hear from you!

    We had Mother's Day brunch there this past weekend. In my opinion, the brunch is not worth $60, it didn't have a waffle station, no pancakes, or French toast. It had frozen fresh toast stickes. It had a omellete station, carved meat starton, but only prime rib, shrimp cocktail, oysters. The dessert selection was minimal as it don't have a lot of options. The best thing at this brunch was the omellete and the fried chicken sandwich.
