- DDevonNew York City •6 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoThe food, service and presentation was fantastic and made for a wonderful experience. My only reservation was the dinning area felt a bit congested, and as a result, felt a bit confined and challenging to hear at times. This aspect was unfortunate to an otherwise great experience.More infoBrescaPrice: Expensive• Contemporary French / American• U Street Corridor•4.6
- GGirishVIPWashington, D.C. Area •37 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoWe went to Jackie for Valentine’s Day and it was our first time there. We ate from the valentines menu and it was really delicious. We ordered the half dozen oysters which were great and for starters I had the butternut squash blossom. My husband had the tuna tostada and it was made very well and had lots of flavor. Next, for entrees I had the steak with potatoes and finished up with the cheesecake and my husband had the yellowtail fish and dessert was coconut custard. All in all we really enjoyed our meal and we would recommend.More infoJackiePrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Navy Yard•4.1
