I want to give a big thank you to Remy at Decades Nightclub in DC. I reached out through the website to get some information, and she responded immediately. Her promptness and professionalism were truly impressive. It’s rare these days to receive such quick and helpful communication. Excellent customer service! Ed R

Love this place. Great bartenders, great securities. Management is very hands on and attentive to customers like myself. You can literally watch it, had a table on rooftop! PS, lol make sure you’re ready for a leg work out as they’re like 4 flights of stairs!

Decades is such a fun spot. It has four floors of dance floors, so there’s plenty of space to move around and enjoy the music. The vibe is always lively and energetic, and you can tell people are there just to have a good time. The drinks aren’t too pricey, which makes it easy to hang out without worrying about your wallet. The staff are friendly, and the whole place feels welcoming. The only downside is that parking can be a bit of a hustle, but it’s definitely worth it for a night of dancing and fun with friends.

Was at decades last weekend with some friends celebrating her getting divorced. Remy helped us out and booked us a table he was very kind and shared the same sense of humor about the situation as we did. Gave us a great table on hip hop floor and checked on us through out the night making sure we were well taken care of. Looking forward to coming back here in the future for more nights out. Hopefully we see Remy again😉

I had a fantastic experience! I was with two friends who had never been to a night club before and the manager was so friendly and welcoming to us! I definitely appreciated this because going to the club for the first time can be scary, the security staff was very respectful and reasonable as well. The crowd was also great, after my friends left I had no issues socializing.

I went for my 24th birthday on the Saturday before the big snow storm hit on Jan 25th 2026. I did the birthday experience at Decades and trust me if you have a birthday or don’t have any birthday plans this is def the spot to celebrate!!!! The staff went above and beyond to make my birthday special. The bouncer and the guy who organized the payment and coordination of the whole thing was spot on, and it was easy getting bottle service as well!!! Also the bottle service girls were fantastic def doing the bottle service again on March the 14th next Saturday!!!! Can’t wait to see you guys again, you guys are the best nightclub in D.C.

I went to the restaurant next door to Decades called Rewind. The food was so good! I had the fried pickles as an appetizer and the salmon, asparagus, and mashed potatoes!! 😋 I came here because it wasnt too far from my first location, and it was open late. It was about 10:45pm and I was alone. I love the fact that the waitress Brenda kept coming over to check on me to make sure I was okay! Shout out to her! I will definitely come back to this place when I come back to DC!
