    From the time you are warmly greeted at the door, through to the baked Alaska flambe' table side, it was an excellent experience. Convenient to DC MetroRail, expect a perfectly prepared seafood dinner. The salmon and branzino we had was outstanding. Our waiter was superb. Enjoyed the complimentary olive veggie snack plate and hot sourdough. And Landrys rewards are a big plus- saved us $25!

    Excellent fresh seafood. We had oysters, yellowtail crudo, hot stone tuna, and Dover sole. Our server, Billy, gave fabulous recommendations, was very friendly, and allowed us to have a leisurely meal as we requested. This is a splurge experience, so it is pricey. Highly recommended!!

    Oceanaire is always a treat. Danielle did a great job. Shrimp scampi was very, very good. Can’t say enough good things about Oceanaire.
