Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Chester

Certainly a go to in downtown DC. Tuesday night and the place was hopping. Had a reservation, and we weee promptly seated. Service was perfect and food and drink excellent. Plenty of great places to eat downtown. This definitely on my favorites list.

This is a tried and true favorite. Took a student who is interning in DC and shel loved it. The place was packed and traffice was terrible so i got there late, bt I asked for them to hold the reservation. The hostesses, down to the wait staff were awesome. High energy - lots of Capital Hill celebs there.

Frequent diners- close to home. Always good and very reasonable prices. Place is nice. Handy parking. Staff is friendly and professional. Not a tony high end vibe . Just very suitable. Menu offerings are good and food and drinks are good and servings are plentiful.

It is nice dining in restaurants, like Knoxie's, that do not cram as many tables as they can into their dining room. My mother is hard-of-hearing and will often decline dinner invitations because she has trouble hearing in environments where there is a lot of background noise. The atmosphere it Knoxie's is classy and well appointed. We sat at a large corner booth that was perfect for close conversation. Our server was attentive and charming. The oysters were local and clean. The shrimp and grits were tasty and complimented with fried okra, andouille sausage, and other pleasant surprises. My mother said her crab cakes were delicious, and my wife enjoyed her filet and shrimp (not to boast, but I cooked a filet mignon later in the week at home that my wife said was even better then Knoxie's, so maybe Knoxie's filet isn't the best in town, because there is no way that I cooked the best filet in town.) On the advice of the server I had the bread pudding for dessert and it was fantastic.

We’ve been here many times. Such a special place right on the water. Fantastic food - you couldn’t ask for fresher oysters! Coming from a life long Marylander, the crab pizza is out of this world! I couldn’t recommend this restaurant enough.
