Had a fantastic dinner at this restaurant. Best dinner I've had in DC. Allison was my server, and she is a gem. My wife has Celiac, and she went above and beyond to accommodate her allergy. Will be back when I'm in town again.

Limani was PERFECT for our pre-show dinner. The staff were incredibly attentive. The VIEW and restaurant were beautiful. The food was delicious, and we loved their oversized wine glasses! We had the grilled Calamari, scallops, ceviche, Halloumi Cheese, Lemon Potatoes and more. It was really lovely and the waitstaff could not have been more on top of everything. I had gone during their first week and I can say it has only gotten WAY better!
