10/10 experience
I had such a great experience at this dispensary, I had to leave a review. First off, they’re currently running an awesome deal—20% off Khalifa Kush and Khalifa Mint, two top-shelf strains that I’ve been wanting to try. Both were super fresh, potent, and definitely lived up to the hype. What really stood out to me, though, was the customer service. I didn’t even have my medical card yet, but the team there walked me through the entire process. Signing up was way easier than I expected, and I had everything set up and ready to go in no time.Big shoutout to Keewee, the budtender who helped me out. She was incredibly knowledgeable and patient, answered all my questions, and gave some solid recommendations that matched exactly what I was looking for. You can tell she really knows her stuff and cares about making sure people leave happy and informed. Definitely coming back here. Between the deals, the quality, and the amazing staff—this place is a gem.

This shop is actually the best. Marcus helped us out with everything we needed. The vibe is chill the second you walk in, the workers don’t rush you, and they actually know what they’re talking about. Everything is organized, clean, and the selection is crazy — flower, carts, edibles, all of it. Prices are super solid for the quality too. I walked out with exactly what I needed and more because they put me onto things I never would’ve tried. Definitely my new go-to spot. If you’re trying to find a place that’s consistent, welcoming, and always stocked, this is it.

I’ve been to a few dispensaries in the area but my favorite has to be this place. Their staff was very friendly and helpful. They made the sign-up process super quick and easy. It took me less than 5 minutes to sign up. They have a great selection of products and are always rotating items so there’s always something new to try. The staff is also very knowledgeable and helped answer all my questions and gave me great reccomedations. For anyone looking for a regular place to go to or just somewhere to stop by while you’re in town, I’d definitely recommend Relva. They will make sure you always leave happy and with the products you need. 10/10!

I couldn't have had a smoother experience coming here as a new customer. Was just visiting the area and they not only helped me with getting into the door, but they gave me 15% off for it being my first time! If I'm ever in the area, Relva is gonna be my go-to. Everyone was super nice, I didn't feel like they were rushing me at all. Any question I had was answered with clarity. Overall 10/10 if I could.

Customer service and great prices
If you haven’t checked out Relva yet, you’re seriously missing out. This place is setting the bar for what a dispensary experience should be top-tier flower, incredible customer service, and a vibe that feels like home. Right now, they’ve got a 20% sale on Khalifa Kush, and trust me, it’s hitting hard. But the real gem? That Zack Cake locally grown in DC and absolutely 10/10. Smooth, flavorful, and perfectly balanced, it’s hands-down one of my favorite strains on the menu. The budtenders at Oscar know his stuff. He take the time to understand what I was looking for, offer spot on recommendations, and never rush the experience. Whether you’re a seasoned patient or just starting out, you’ll leave with the right product. The inventory is large, the quality is consistent, and the energy is all love. Can’t wait to be back for 420 thanks guys 💚🔥
