First time getting food from Maker's Union. Chicken and Waffles, Parmesean Fries, and Mac & Cheese. The food was outstanding!. I order carry out and by the time I sat down to eat the waffles were not crispy. Can't blame the restaurant for that. I should have opened the container to let the heat out. Still tasted great and the chicken was perfect. The portions are ginormous!

The staff was exceptionally friendly and courteous. I will be back and will recommend to friends.

Had a 1:15 PM reservation at Makers Union and still got told we had to wait because there was a line out the door and they were “overbooked.”

If I wanted to wait in line, I wouldn’t have bothered booking ahead. The hostess looked overwhelmed, the place was chaotic, and honestly the whole vibe screamed we can’t handle brunch season but we’ll pretend we can.

Do better. Don’t offer reservations if you can’t actually honor them.

Came here to visit. My friend and I had such a great time . The manager Yusuf was very polite and hospitable . This restaurant has friendly employees as well. Also, the food is 10/10. Give them a try .

We went here for lunch but the manager couldn’t rouse himself from the computer to help the one waitress make our drinks, then he couldn’t find the ingredients. Needless to say we were served mediocre drinks with a mediocre meal but an amazingly upbeat and cheerful waitress who should get a raise for dealing with the jerk of a manager. Would not recommend…

Service was a 10..Drinks were a 10…the food & ambience was a 10! The bartenders made our experience a memorable one. We walked in(without reservations on a Saturday) and was immediately greeted/seated.

My drinks were pricey and meal was like a microwave TV dinner. I'll revisit because it's in my neighborhood and the games are available.

I had dinner at Market Union at The Wharf on a Sunday, and it was a delicious and satisfying experience. I ordered a steak with broccolini and a loaded potato to go and brought it back to my hotel room. While the steak was a bit on the tough side, the flavors were great, and the meal was filling and well-prepared.

The restaurant was busy, likely due to the Sunday brunch crowd, but the atmosphere was lively without feeling overwhelming. The waitress was very kind and welcoming as I entered, which made the experience even better especially considering how packed it was.

If you’re staying nearby particularly at The Harbor or The Wharf area I’d definitely recommend this spot for a solid meal, whether dining in or taking it to go.

We absolutely loved this place! We got the spinach and artichoke dip, steak, and Alfredo pasta…everything was so delicious! Our waitress was so kind and the atmosphere was amazing. The live music wasn’t too loud either.

Ms. Shari was the best server we had visiting into DC. Accommodating and all! The food was phenomenal and the scenery of the restaurant was nice as well. Cocktails were made perfectly! Will recommend ten times over if you’re looking for good food, drinks, and overall good energy and customer service. You won’t be disappointed.
