Our Server Eryk was amazing. He made our experience GREAT it made my Birthday. Thank you Erik for making our evening.
Came to DC for the memorial weekend. One stop on my many adventures between DC and MD was this restaurant. And I am glad I did. Me and my guest did not have a reservation so we opted to sit at the bar until a table was available. We came on a Saturday during brunch. The hostess was pleasant but Chad stole the show. His drinks were amazing. Mine was one he made up and it was sooooo good. Food was fresh and served quickly. Flavors were also on point. Our server was friendly and had excellent oyster recommendations. Very good. I definitely recommend and would come back.
Had oysters on half shell and oyster Rockefeller pasta. Both delicious. The bar was not very crowded but had to wait for a while for my check, so only a 4 for service.
