Washington PostSeptember 23, 2014The best-known dive bar on Capitol Hill is perfect for getting away from politics as usual. Read more
Jake SmithMay 19, 2014The Tune Inn Nachos are great for a quick snack. They are also LOADED with pulled pork and onions, so use that information wisely.
Food NetworkAugust 4, 2014Guy raved about the Bon Ton sauce used generously for such specials as Joe's West Virginia sandwich made with American cheese and the beer-battered burger, dripping with flavor. Read more
Andrew WisemanNovember 15, 2015Maybe the last dive bar in town -- you'll find old and young here, plus burgers and pub grub.
Patrick McDermottMay 8, 2012The decor is true dive bar, but don't let that fool you, this place has some great food. A must is their burger with their signature sauce...yum!!! (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
One of the best places in DC. Revamped and modernized, but still as classic and charming as ever.
adam SammieApril 14, 2016Soup seafood gumbo is great and BBQ Prix rob too only for 10.50$ a like it is the best place near the capital
The best corned beef hash in DC! Omlettes are great, chocolate chip pancakes feed the sugar cravings. Plus, it is stil a great dive bar!
Byron WilkesDecember 15, 2015Nice late-night dive, def will do the trick after a night out or fine meal.
Eric JanssenJune 18, 2013Roast beef sandwich is the best sandwich I've ever had. Don't forget the pickle spears - perfect! Find a bench for a nap afterwards.
Ben GAugust 8, 2014The standard for Capitol Hill mainstays. Cheap drinks, friendly staff and good food. Best juke box in DC.
Dustin HaleyDecember 15, 2014Great old fashion hole in the wall. Food is great, service is characteristically no frills, yet good.
Tony WaterlooAugust 9, 2014Classic DC spot. A great spot for a drink and meal with DC'a locals. Love it! Plus they have Natty Boh!
Tucker WarnerSeptember 9, 2021Love it! It was easy going and a fun place for a quick bite and drink.
The Hill is HomeJanuary 21, 2012Back and better than ever after a kitchen fire in 2011. Some THIH favorites are the grilled cheese with bacon, chili cheese fries, and the burger. Read more
ChrisFebruary 9, 2014Whilst certainly a great dive with a penchant for deep frying everything, the burger meat is tasteless. Having been to most burger joints in the city, Tune is sub par comparatively speaking.
Anamarija JaguschAugust 30, 2014The best dive bar ever. Great food, awesome beers and even better atmosphere.- Brian BallSeptember 14, 2013James behind the bar is a RIOT! Make sure and try the beer-battered deep fried burger and fried pickles!
Michael S.June 3, 2012The walls are covered with fascinating paraphernalia ( deer ass is just above the tiny bathrooms). Burgers are yummy and BIG!
Burger DaysMarch 8, 2011Featured in George Motz' book "Hamburger America", Tune Inn is a dive bar that serves up a solid, tasty burger. The walls are adorned with various knick knacks, heads of Jackalopes, deer and other fur
Serious EatsOctober 1, 2013Tourists seek out the deep fried burger at this Capitol Hill dive, regulars just come to drink.
Robert Clark RtfDecember 3, 2012Back in the day when I lived in the neighborhood a great place for Sunday breakfast while reading the Post and the Times.
Kris RichardsonNovember 20, 2012You gotta get the beer battered deep fried cheese burger. It was the bomb!
Grateful Dead on the jukebox, Red Sox friendly. Favorite Cap Hill bar for many neighborhood folks for many years, one of the good ones that have survived from the old days.
CarolynMarch 13, 2012One of the best dives in town. Get something greasy and enjoy the slightly rude service.
Though it is not on the menu, you can get Gravy Cheese fries if you ask, and put your conscience and the look from the server behind you. Fat-tastic
Marc Kevin HallMay 11, 2012Okay, the deep-fried beer batter burger? Sounds absurd, right? It's great!
Matt is the man. Great place love the chicken fingers.
Schereeya TaylorJanuary 3, 2018Haven't tried the food yet because we just ordered, but just wanted to add a note about the service: bartender/server noticed we had a sleeping baby and turned down the music for us!
