Have you eaten crab cakes in the Reliable Source yet this summer? Make a reservation!

Dog days are here, so cool off with a special Reliable Source cocktail one afternoon. Stick around for dinner afterward if you find you can make it on a Thursday or Friday. And you'll have a table waiting for you and the bartender standing by if you just simply reserve ahead. Make a reservation online.

Lunch is available Monday through Friday, and dinner service recently expanded to include Thursday evenings as well as the Friday Taco Night and dinner service.

All the special Reliable Source cocktail drinks are $11 each.

Order one of these classics:

Moscow Mule

14th & F Daiquiri

Old Fashioned

Grand Sidecar

Lickity-Split

Lunch service runs from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. The bar remains open after lunch service until 8 p.m. Dinner service is available Thursdays and Fridays beginning at 4:30 p.m.

Don’t forget Taco Night every Friday beginning at 5:30 p.m.

Got visitors in town over the summer? Show them downtown D.C. and reserve a spot at the Reliable Source to show them a skyline view from the 14th floor as you relax from a day of sightseeing over a delicious meal and beverage. For a special treat, the summer classic crab cakes are back on the menu after last year’s crab shortage.

Other menu highlights include salmon and New York steak. A variety of sandwiches and wraps are available, as well as salads.
