Exceptional Service!
One Of My Fav Places in DC Area For Sure & I
Highly Recommend!
I had an excellent dining experience here. The service was warm, attentive, and made the meal feel special from start to finish. The food was truly memorable — the lamb chops were perfectly cooked and full of flavor, and the mac and cheese was rich, creamy, and comforting. Everything else I ordered was just as impressive, with great presentation and even better taste.
I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for delicious food and top-notch service. I’ll definitely be coming back!
Pros:
1. The jerk (salmon, chicken, or shrimp) pasta is very good.
2. Prices are reasonable.
Cons:
1. Music is overwhelming loud. Club level for such a small area. You have to yell to communicate with everyone, even the waitress. I was told they dont know how to turn it down. Two people walked out complaining about the noise level.
2. Food was served on ceramic plates, with plastic dinner utensils and drinks were canned sodas accompanied by iced filled clear plastic cups. . .Why?
3. Tables are extremely flimsy and wobbly.
4. The front door takes more that 5 minutes to close. Allowing for the cold air to sweep through the dining area making for an uncomfortable experience.
5. I was not greeted at the door. I had to walk farther into the establishment before being greeted. Very slow service. There were only two customers at the bar. Three tables were occupied.
6. Staff dress attire is not consistent with a casual atmosphere. Waist trainers are cute, but not something associated with 4+ star restaurant.
This place has so much potential to be a great chill spot. Honestly, the place would get 4 stars easily if it just turned down the music to a moderate level, purchase some dinerware, and fix the tables. The oxtail egg rolls are a unique item. To much rice, and the meat is almost minced.
If you want good food? Its perfect for a carry-out. As for a date night out, Its a hard pass.
