    This restaurant is amazing. I would highly recommend this place. We had reservations, and upon arrival, the host offered to seat us upstairs. I reminded her of our reservations and she assured me that we would like our seating. We absolutely loved it . The D.J. played some good R&B music , and the food was delicious and reasonably priced, drinks pricey, peach cobbler was not good, it looked good. The ambiance was excellent!

    We chose to eat at this restaurant because it was close to the Christmas markets that occurs in downtown. Washington DC seasonally. The restaurant is located inside of the Monaco hotel. we read a lot of things online about how great the food was, and it did not disappoint! The salmon, the butternut squash, and the rack of lamb were very impressive, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The bartender makes a pretty good old-fashioned as well.

    It was a vibe ✨ My girl V deserves the world with hosting my fiancé and I. She was able to match us with some of the best recommendations in the house. Although they do not serve food, they have bomb kettle cooked chips and V will recommend the best Chinese restaurant that deliver. For our drinks we had; keep it peachy, give me butterflies, & others. 10/10 must try spot; tell Veronica the two moms never made it to that club 👀, she’ll know exactly what I’m taking about.
