$40 Dollar Date #1- Washington DC

$40 Dollar Dates-Sky Terrace Restaurant Hotel Washington

Point blank- this is a great spot to go to on a date. It is one of the best dating secrets in DC, and a G4 banger for your first date.

The restaurant is located on the rooftop of the Hotel Washington, located 15th & Pennsylvania Ave., N.W. It’s a real low key spot that not too many people know about. It has a covered roof area, thats great in the Summer on cool nights.

The Sky Terrace has a great view overlooking the White House, so you will get some cool points for picking the place. It is not usually packed and ask for a seat by the rail, so you can fully appreciate the view.

The food on the other hand is mediocre nothing too exceptional. But lucky for you the view makes up for the menu.

My recommendations include the grilled chicken muffaletta ($12) or keep it simple and order the Angus beef burger ($12). A shrimp salad will run you about $18. As long as you steer your date away from more expensive entrées you should be okay (more around the $25 dollar range).

What I would do is invite her out for coffee and dessert. The sky terrace serves a variety of liquor infused coffees. For example, they have a drink called Arreva ($12); it is a mixture of Grand Marnier, Pepper Snaps, Jose Cuervo, fresh coffee- topped with whipped cream. Order two slices of strawberry short cake- and you have your self a $40 date.

The restaurant is open pretty late, however I do believe they stop serving food around midnight or 1am. So, on a night with a full moon, the night is yours- please don’t mess up. My advice is listen intently and tilt your head so the moonlight hits your eyes and gives it that dreamy effect. She will think highly of you for picking this spot, instead of taking her to Fridays. I guarantee you will be the first dude that takes her here on a date.
