    Absolutely fantastic! Service from the bar was slow, but they came over & updated us that a few ppl called out that evening. So, in that case, I do not hold the restaurant responsible because they had the courtesy of letting us know. We met the owner who sent over complimentary cookies. Everything was fantastic, A++++ Keep in mind this was also the same evening that the military helicopter crashed into the plane with Olympic Ice Skaters on the Potomac, which literally right there. 🙏 🤲 Rip to all that passed.
