   Brunch was great, service was great and they even gave us some macarons to celebrate being newly weds! We will definitely go back soon. Recommend 100%.

   For our first time here we felt very rushed. I would love to try this place again to enjoy the food.

   Absolutely beautiful restaurant with cozy vibes. Really good food and good value for a NYE pre-fix meal w/ glass of champagne included! Excellent by the glass wine selection. Was exactly what I was hoping for

   Overall it was a good experience for the new year eve dinner. Only bug was what we ordered first was finally out of stock and we had to review both entrées and desserts choices last minute. Management has been comprehensive and alternative dishes were very good. Just a bit disappointed that we were not informed when ordering especially when you travel the DMV because you are looking for specific dishes.

   We dined for NYE and paid a serious up-charge for dining on the holiday. The pre fix menu was $120/pp and while the food was certainly good, it was not worth more than $90/pp. The servers were clearly rushed and there was not really anything special for the holiday to warrant such an up-charge.

   Went for New years eve fixed price. The food was mediocre at best. The service excellent, the restaurant is lovely. It was way over priced-pushed up because it was new years, and the menu was nothing original or special in any way. I know people seem too enjoy the food here overall, but we do not think it is particularly upscale in any way.

    My wife and I attended during the New Year's Eve fixed menu. Hors D'ouvres: wife had the onion soup grantinee: we both thought it was very good but incredibly salty. I had the coquilles saint-jaques: nice flavor and the cook on the scallops was perfect but would have preferred it served above room temperature Plats Principaux: wife had the lobster vol au vent: she didn't seem too impressed, only took one bite and asked for a box for me to take home (which was apparently so good that we didn't even bother eating it). I had the tenderloin tournedos: I ordered medium rare and it came out over medium well and very dry. One school of thought is to send things back if they aren't up to standards, but I figured at $120 a pop dinner they should know what they're doing and probably wouldn't get it right the second time anyway. Dessert: wife had the apple tart tatin: she loved it. I had the creme brulee: it came with an allspice cookie which was kind of gross, but the creme brulee was tasty, nice crunch Service: our server was a ninja. While I appreciate the effort to clear our table efficiently and run off it didn't ever give us time to request refills, request our unlit candle be replaced, request an extra napkin, etc. To me it bordered on she had more important tables than us to attend to. Ambience: the inside of this building is beautiful. We loved this place when it was Colombia Firehouse, but I don't anticipate returning while this is still Josephine.
