   I am a former seafood restaurant owner. I’ve ordered the sea bass and the fish took more than a regular time. It came in a kind of soup plate, too deep for fish eating. Also only accompanied by a few spinach leaves. I was expecting much more. Would be much more of a rich plate if it was served in a shallow plate with a crab fried rice and a bit more spinach with a sauce over. Out of that everything was very good. Live music was wonderful.

   I don't normally post reviews, but my wife and I had a wonderful experience at EVs this weekend - so much so that I thought it appropriate to share. We came on Friday night having heard some rough news, and both our server and others seemed to sense this and gave us some space: very much appreciated. Saturday night we returned resolved to make up for the previous night, and Eddie Vs did not disappoint. Service (Mauricio, Tech, and Kyle) were fabulous - very attentive to my wife and her ever-present eagerness to connect with people. FABULOUS drinks - it's very easy to screw up a sidecar, but EV's hits it every time (in a full martini glass, more substantial than this drink is normally served elsewhere). We love EVs for the seafood, and here too it didn't disappoint - salmon and scallops were perfect, and the bread as always was a hit. But we particularly enjoy EVs for the atmosphere - it's a place where people of all types from everywhere all converge, and somehow it just works. It's one of few places where my wife and I can get way dressed up (and her style is very different from mine) - and we never feel out of place. Some people criticize EVs and other upscale chain restaurants as "fake fancy," but I think this criticism totally misses the point. EVs doesn't serve arugula grown next door by a farmer whose land has been in his family for hundreds of years, but it's an upenergy, upbeat and upscale spot that serves terrific food without trying to be something that it isn't - in that way, it's the opposite of "fake." Fake is the vibe I get when I go to a lot of upscale places in DC that try so hard to create a formal atmosphere that they become stuffy and pretentious. Hats off to Kyle, Tech, Mauricio, and the wonderful women at the host stand who greeted us. Eddie Vs helped turn around what could have been a rough weekend. They always make my wife feel like she's the star of the show - and as her husband I can't put a price tag on that. Thank you.

   A wonderful Thanksgiving it was… from the moment we were greeted ..to the ease of being seated before our reservation time. Kellen was amazing with the recommendations and from there the food and drinks kept flowing. 20/10 HIGHLY recommend. Oh and they have an amazing happy hour sun-Thurs.

   From the moment we sat down, Tek (our server) made this an unforgettable evening in the best possible ways. The food was spectacular. I had the sole - which, having had an office in Paris for many years, I rarely dare to order in the US. It was amazing! My wife had the most delectable scallops plus stuffed shrimp. We were celebrating our anniversary, they made this one of the best celebrations ever! Samara (the manager) stopped by as well to express her gratitude. What an amazing evening!!!

    Always fantastic food and service at Eddie Vs. Many thanks to Gary and Arella at the bar and Murat, our server who always takes good care of us. Happy to see Terry Lee Ryan, Scotty and Lelann playing the best in easy listening music. Well done.
