Fabulous food and service was exquisite. What was the best part was that a table of politicians were sitting next to us and we could eavesdrop on their conversation. Really fun!

Our table was far too close to the two tables next to us. We could hear their conversation as well as our own and we kept physically hitting them. It was not a comfortable place to sit.

Coming in DC from another state , we wanted to gather somewhere to eat and gather together on my Birthday week with our family. We were told that it was 90’s - 2000’s music. At first we were a little hesitant concerning the younger crowd, but our Server gave us one of the best experiences that made us have our own personal party within The Party. She was phenomenally Great. I can’t recall her name but she was Beautiful with top notch service.
