Great food, great service. There were 3 options when picking seating for my reservation for my party: high top, standard, or outdoor. I explicitly chose standard because I didn't want to be outside in the heat of summer. Be forewarned that ALL seating is outdoor - some is covered but it's still outdoors. There is seating at the bar & a couple of tables for two, but nothing for 3 or more. If I had known it was all in the heat I would not have reserved this place. But like I said, service and food was very good.
Perfect 4th of July - great food, amazing service and view of fireworks. We will be back!!!
The food was good, it was a little expensive for what it was, but the oysters were excellents 38 for one crab cake is a little steep in this regions most places are 2 for 40 to 44.
We had a party of 7 and it would have been nice to be able to join two tables, but they did sit us next to each other. Great Food and drinks!
Service was very slow. Sun in our eyes and no one offered to do anything even when asked. Server did not check with hostess. Drinks took forever. Food was very slow coming out. FF were cold and soft. Asked for new ones, came out hot and soft. Were there for over an hour, ordered three items and did not get them all within an hour. Oysters were great and beer was cold, that's about it sadly.
overall good service and the osyter was fresh and the drinks was good the octopus grill was great too
The food was wonderful. Our service was okay, a little less attentive than I would have liked. Drinks needed refilled and plates cleared. The restaurants ambiance was nice, however the benches along the perimeter of the patio was a set of benches where people were smoking suggested and weed so the smell was overwhelming.
Very attentive server, good selection of food. Had the scallops and pork. Highly recommend
Killing time while daughter was at the Anthem. Lovely service and great food. Highly recommended.
We had late lunch in spring - it was perfect! We got a huge crab cake with amazing sauce; the fried combo basket, which arrived arrived piping hot (shrimp especially good); and the raw oysters were fresh and delicious.

Our server was sloppy and not very welcoming and hospitable. The food made up for our lackluster first impression.
Great food, very welcoming staff. My friends from Europe ask to be taken there every time they come to DC. Need espresso coffee though!
The food is good but unfortunately our food took too long to come out and we had to cancel our order to make it to the concert. After an hour and a half, all we managed to get were drinks, oysters, and an appetizer.
We were there during a weekend rush (between a baseball game and a show at the Anthem), so service wasn't great because the restaurant was overwhelmed. I would try it again when it's quieter, but I won't go again during a rush.
It was a really good Mother's Day meal. We had the branzino, fried shrimp/oysters, and octopus. Everyone had a good time and enjoyed their meal.
