We went to the Skydome for dinner on a Saturday night. You have to pay a covercharge at 9pm, but there is music and dancing to enjoy. The food was pretty good and the view from the revolving restaurant was excellent.

If you are looking for a place to view the skyline of Washington D.C. this is the place to go. Located across the Potomac River in Arlington Virginia on top of Double Tree Hotel it is near the Pentagon. It is dome shaped and revolving slowly in clockwise direction so make sure you remember where your table is if you leave to go to the dancefloor. Don't expect too much if you come for the disco, the acoustics is bad and there is no mirrored ball or DJ. The music selection is good if you are a versatile dancer or loved oldies but goodies. The restaurant is a little bit pricey for the quality of food but the bar serves strong cocktail drinks. Make sure to take the North tower elevator not the South or you will end up in the wrong building. After getting to the 14th floor, transfer to another elevator that only goes up the skydome. This is a very good place to see the Washington, D.C. skyline but for those who have conditions affecting the sense of balance please be forwarned, this might not be good for you.

Happy hour 5-7 daily! Also gorgeous at night. Friendly staff answered questions we had about the skyline and monuments. Children welcome. I read that Friday and Saturday nights there is a 10 dollar cover and a dress code

Excellent view form this revolving restaurant/bar, and no cover charge Sunday-Thursday. Decent selecetion of drinks.
