Well it only took two years from my first visit to return ... and that was my loss. This remains one of the top five favorite places for a classic bourbon cocktail. What kind? Any kind. In a night that included here, Bourbon and Harold Blacks, this one was my favorite. And trust me. Those other places are five star recommend as well. So consider this a five rating.

Nice cocktail place! I had the seafood paella, truffle fries and couple of their drinks. Food was just OK with g'town price tag on it. I really liked my drink: caviar and pearls, I was worried to mix fish eggs into my drink at first but it really brought the flavor out. Great service. I would go back for a date night. Great atmosphere. The bathtub drinks were just too cute.
I'm not sure why I'm reviewing a place that doesn't exist... after all, no one would hide a speakeasy in basement of a boutique hotel... but if it were to exist, it would be one of my favorite places to chill in DC. I've never been into the bar scene. The noise, the pounding music, the crowds... they just don't do it for me. What I like is a place with excellent drinks, a chill vibe, and an atmosphere reminiscent of hanging out in a nice library. For my purposes, The Alex delivers. A rotating menu of specialty drinks keeps things interesting, while the passionate staff makes sure that every drink is crafted to perfection. If you don't mind spending a bit of money, The Alex is a must visit. You know. If it existed. Which it does not. ;-)
Awesome bar and great service!
Very cool entrance. Best speakeasy food I've yet to have! Most friendly bartenders and fantastic sevice I had in the whole city. Had my very first \Vespa\ martini... The bartender knew the off-menu request recipe already and did not disappoint!!!
