    Corey, our server, was attentive and provided excellent service. The ambience on the water and the high end decor gives this venue a luxurious feel.

    Service was horrible from beginning to end. They offer all you can eat crab legs on Fridays and they were not prepared. It was horrible.

    Dinner date on a Friday night my food never came. My drinks and food never came. The manager said she was overwhelmed because they were not expecting their promotion to go viral. My husband ended up eating chicken wings and french fries and after 30 minutes of me not having any food or drink, we decided to leave and go to TGI Fridays.Horrible experience to say the least!

    Bottomless crabs on fridays is awesome. The quality is great, the flow is slow. 2 hours and 6 legs for 2 people, not even a full cluster, questions the value. At the 2 hour mark we were asked to wrap up for the next set of reservations, completely understandable if service had a steady flow. Main menu: steak and fries were excellent. This came out immediately and was cooked perfectly.

    The fried chicken was spectacular. The oysters were fresh and the lobster Diavlo pasta was delicious. Jazmin was very knowledgeable and super friendly. The ambiance in the bar area is beautifully modern and romantic. I cannot wait until it gets warmer so that we can enjoy the waterfront dining experience.

    Close to DC United, this restaurant has an outside view to the Potomac River. The ambiance was beautiful and though there wasn't a lot on the menu everything we had was tasty from the wings, to the catfish, to the seafood pasta. The speciality drinks were tasty. There are specials each day which I will come back to check out the next time I visit.
