I haven't been to the Red Room in a few years, but it's still FAR from one of the top 25 douchiest bars in DC.
I like Rocket Bar. I hate going there on event nights, but other than that, it's a good place. What can I say? There are usually TONS of hot women there and I've had decent success there.
I also don't understand how My Brother's Place is on there. One of the least pretentious bars in the city in one of its most hard to find locations.
Thought Sign of the Whale would at least be top 3. Tommy Joe's description was spot on. Cafe Citron sucks, too.
