“The food was great , the owner was very nice and friendly. I decided to try it out at first because it is almost all halal and was surprised by the great customer service I received and the great quality of the food. Will definitely be coming back often especially because of all the specials and affordable options.“

“Good food, good prices, had a bit of a wait when we arrived and it wasn’t crowded“

“Very good and fresh seafoods“

“Yesterday was my first time there, myself and a party of five. One member of our party arrived and had the table reserve the wait was 30 minutes, took that long for the rest of us to arrive; when we did we were seated rather fast. The crab bomb stole the show, best any of us ever had. Second runner up the crab soup also the baked potatoe was well portioned and was not dried out. The haddock was fried to perfection, and the cake dessert oh my, I ordered dessert to go, When I later dugged into the lemon pound cake each morsel was delicious, as if it was home made. Over all an excellent dining experience, a little pricey but was worth every single dime, we will return.“

“The food and service was great“

“Food was delicious and the sauce off the hook“

“A very good friend of mine introduced me to this place and I've been obsessed with it ever since. I can't stop thinking of the food here! The crab was very good.“

“Food choices were amazing and my server was top notch!! There were so many options on the menu. Can't wait to go back. I had the crab dip and the Kona Steak Skewers for apps. Along with Seafood Ravioli as an entree. Oh, the Jameson Whiskey cocktail was delightful as well. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Nice new place to meet. Bonus points for walking distant to the Capitol. The eggs were absolutely amazingly delicious - cannot be over praised.“

“My husband really wanted some fish so we tried this place. The fish is fresh they clean and cook it. Order ahead because the lines are long and so is the wait. He said the fish was ok but needed more seasoning. The fries were great!

Parking: It was crowded and parking was slim I found a parking space right in front but people were pulling up in the street and parking next to parked cars and picking up their food. It could cause a problem especially doing rush hour.“

“I love the shrimp basket with the Cajun fries🥰“

“Everything on the menu is delicious. Guarantee.🔥💯❗️“

“Always great customer service and food. Love the cozy atmosphere!“

“The food was delicious!!!! And the service was excellent“

“Everything about this place was A++. Not sure how this place has not come up for me or my husband before but came here Tuesday night and we’re officially deeming this our go to spot. Everything was delicious and legitimately the best Mexican restaurant in DC and the best Margaritas in town.
1. The fajitas (chorizo, chicken, steak) had amazing flavor including the side of refried beans, steak was tender, didn’t skimp you on the veggies.
2. The chicken tamales did not disappoint - you can tell they care about their masa, and the chicken inside was juicy, not dry like many places.
3. The frozen margaritas were freshly made it isn’t just a bunch of syrup. I actually wasn’t going to get one but Oscar put my concerns at ease and pointed out it was still happy hour.
Such a relief to find a spot where you can count on food being delicious, where the vibe is chill and the people are great! Thank you Oscar, Diego, and Chris!“

“I recently had the pleasure of trying Seafood Boss and I can confidently say it's a must-visit for anyone who appreciates fresh and flavorful fried seafood. The fish and shrimp platter with Boom sauce was a standout—perfectly cooked, with a burst of flavor in every bite. The owner was friendly and attentive, adding to the overall experience. Whether you're a foodie or simply looking for a great meal, definitely delivers on both taste and service. Highly recommend!“

“FISH NEVER GREASY“

“First Time at Milk & Honey Restaurant, most certainly not our last! Maureen, our Server was personable and professional. AGM coming to our table with the two Specials for Father's Day was our tipping point in a totally positive direction. Thank you for an awesome experience. See you all soon“

“The smoked salmon blt is the absolute truth!! Only $12.50 for a sandwhich PACKED with FRESH, QUALITY ingredients! Also the cardamom ginger lemonade is SO refreshing, honestly I could come for that alone.

Wheelchair accessibility: Easily accessible for wheelchair by street level double doors.“

“They give you a lot of tasty food. In today's financial climate it's good to get value for your dollar and Mid Atlantic Seafood does just that. In addition, their food is well seasoned and very tasty. No matter if you get a sandwich, a soulfood entre or seafood you definitely will get a meal that tastes good, but you get value. I recommend Mid Atlantic Seafood to everyone.“

“I visited one day for lunch, and got the shrimp po boy with fries. It was delicious! The cost was reasonable. The shrimp were a good size, seasoned and fried well. The fries were tasty too. I hope they stick around and continue to serve good food at good prices. I'll be back!“

“Got fried croaker dinner with red potatoes and brussel sprouts. Enough food for 2 days. Red potatoes cooked to perfection. Sprouts seasoned perfectly without being salty. I fortunately, the fish was disappointing, greasy, small (2 pieces). Didn't enjoy either, picked through it and trashed it. I won't attempt anything else like that again.
Staff was friendly.“

“Everything was really good, we got wings and red snapper (I ordered catfish but didn’t understand me) the wings were fresh and crispy, I got lemon pepper wet and the fried rice was great. There’s a bit of a language barrier, they mostly speak Spanish, but other than that 10/10“

“Returning to Washington from a France worn down by its own melancholy — a nation led by a presidential couple seemingly disconnected from l'esprit de grandeur — was a relief. The Monocle, nestled just a short pas de géant from Capitol Hill, felt like an antidote. Walking through its doors, I immediately felt transported, like one of the CIA operatives from Lioness Psy-Ops, covertly meeting allies in a safe haven of quiet luxury. Opened in October 1960 by Connie and Helen Valanos, The Monocle has seen more political deals sealed over its crab cakes than perhaps in the chambers of Congress themselves. As the Washingtonian noted, “The Monocle is a better restaurant than it’s given credit for,” serving dishes like “pan-fried Chesapeake Bay oysters baked in a light curry sauce” that feel like culinary diplomacy at its finest. What strikes one immediately is the duality of the space: half public house, half refined eatery. In the restaurant's more elegant quarters, I chose a glass of Sancerre, its mineral brightness pairing effortlessly with the signature crab cakes — plump, golden, and loaded with chair de crabe so sweet it could make a New Englander weep. A red wine-braised New York strip followed, its sauce reminiscent of the old-world simplicity one finds in France’s brasseries, yet undeniably American in its confident presentation. The maître d’, Nick Selimos — a fixture here for nearly three decades — greeted every guest with the kind of warmth that makes even the most hardened lobbyist feel comme chez soi. “There’s nothing more satisfying,” said John Valanos, the owner, “than having someone say, ‘We’ll come back ourselves.’” And come back they do — senators, staffers, and curious tourists alike. Sipping a digestif, I glanced at the black-and-white photos adorning the walls — Kennedy, Nixon, and other Washington titans. It’s said JFK dined here regularly during his Senate days. As The Washington Post humorously observed, "Intentions are spoken here, alliances formed, and deals sealed," all over dishes that balance simplicity and sophistication. Leaving The Monocle, I felt reconnected to the vibrancy of Washington, its pulse steadied by the legacy of places like this — where history, gastronomy, and a touch of joie de vivre blend into something unforgettable.“

“Hubby and I had dinner here and the food was great! Lovely atmosphere, decor, music ... small, quaint yet elegant and chic. Service was wonderful, food came fast. Hubby had the Cajun Crab and Shrimp sandwich and I had the Salmon sandwich ... both served with their delicious fries. We also ordered the King Rolls and Hot honey lemon pepper Buffalo wings ... delicious. The staff and manager were very personable and friendly. I give it a 5 star review! #KrabKing #BLKBIZ #GreatFood #Close2Home #UpperMarlboro #Rt301“

“Great seafood Wonderful crabmeat an shrimp“

“Most of the time I get breakfast from seafood restaurants, I can't complain about it they Cook just amazing, great people, friendly, great prices, all food is prepared same day, good taste, fresh meet, I really invited you to come and enjoy the best food from our countrys“

“This was my first time at this place and I was not disappointed! However, I may be a little biased. I'm located in Savannah, Georgia and I'm a huge blue crab connoisseur. The crabs weren't bad but I probably prefer them a little more seasoned and I'm so accustomed to Old Bay here so the new seasoning was different not as salty .... If needed I could relocate and be ok“

“Food is delicious especially the crab egg rolls. Fish & Seafood is fresh. Prices are good. Staff is friendly. Music is on point.“

“I LOVE GOING TO THIS LOCATION. THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE IS AWESOME. THEY KNOW THEIR REGULAR CUSTOMERS BY NAME. CRABS ARE ALWAYS MEATY AND GOOD. THEIR PLATTERS ARE GOOD TOO. THEY HAVE NEVER DISAPPOINTED ME. I GOT XL MALES AND THEY WERE HEAVY AND MEATY!“

“I can not believe this place. So first it has an indoor and outdoor place to order. The customer service was amazing. I was greeted and helped as soon as I walked in because they're were several people taking orders. Not only that but the Crabs were done already. I've never seen that before. It was like all she had to do was put them in a bag. They were still warm 15 minutes later when I was able to eat them. They were so so good too. I paid $20 for 1 dozen and I swear there were like 16 in the bag. This was super convenient as I was delivering a truck to Giant and could eat on My Lunch break.“

“Backed by Clyde’s reputation (and finances), Cordelia did it right. Stefano took care of me at the bar and is a seasoned professional. Explained the restaurant’s approach, menu, and fun facts plus chatted with me appropriately throughout the dinner. Their happy hour is unparalleled and I got a decent rum punch cocktail (not pre-made) with 12 delicious oysters, a hamachi crudo (that was wildly on point), and jumbo raw shrimp for well under $100. Couldn’t recommend this spot enough and will return.“

“Great restaurant Lounge with a variety of delicious food. A very friendly customer service that appreciates all customers. Try their spicy goat and suyer, and you'll thank me later. l.“

“wonderful service and great prices“

“Crack wings are 10/10 honey garlic wings 9/10 peach cobbler 100000 I highly recommend this place. Clean place on the inside/outside very spacious service is nice he gets to know his customers love this spot ! I’ll post food pics next time lol sorry. Already ate it 😂“

“The food was excellent and we had a great time . Super sweet waiters .“

“Great customer service! I sent a FB message last night asking about getting crabs for today. They responded this morning apologizing that they did not have crabs because the season was winding down. A short time later they sent me a second message that they would be getting a couple bushels later in the afternoon and asked if I would still like to place an order. I really appreciated their reaching back out, it made my Dad’s Birthday.“

“Great place love the food.“

“Great food! Nice people. I only gave 4 stars for Service because they ran out of crab for the crab sandwich (it was close to closing time). But that's also a testament to how good their food is. Keep up the great work! If I were to make any suggestions, it would be: extend your hours to 8pm for the dinner crowd. We will be back!“

“Love this hole in the wall! Fresh fish, and seafood that’s season just right. When you place your order, they start cooking you food. The western fries are not bad . They are not overly cooked, with just the right amount of seasoning. Service is relatively fast, depending on how many orders are ahead of you. The staff is very friendly and try to accommodate your changes or special orders.“

“10/10, took my wife for our 15 year anniversary and she loved, every delicious bite, every plate had a story to tell,such a wonderful and memorable experience. Gracias!!!“

“If I could give 10 stars I would. We ordered the hot honey lemon pepper chicken sandwich and catfish and grits and I was very pleased with the taste and presentation of the dishes! The atmosphere was so chill! Staff is very friendly as well!“

“I was on the hunt for the ideal restaurant that offered a city vibe but was conveniently close to home. I lucked out and snagged the last reservation, as they were fully booked for the evening. The atmosphere was spot-on as soon as I walked in. We were seated quickly once a table became available, and after the drinks and food arrived, I understood why reservations were so hard to come by! The menu felt familiar, but the flavors in each dish were a refreshing surprise, with everything cooked to perfection. Our waitress was fantastic, and the entire staff was welcoming and attentive.“

“The food was amazing and our server she was the best, excellent customer service. We will return“

“OMG!! The crabs we some of the best crabs I had in a while. I got a dozen of XL Males, a half dozen large females and a pound of steamed shrimp. First let me say me I received what I paid for which is a plus!! I did not pay for XL and received medium or Large and received small. They were seasoned well and cooked perfectly.

I also appreciated the pleasant customer service I received, very kind and personable.“

“Finally decided to try this place. I have to come back to try the breakfast, but the whiting fish was good. Since it was close to closing I couldn’t try all of the sides so that’s why i can’t give it 5 stars.

Went back a few months ago and was able to try the greens and macaroni and cheese. They were both delicious!“

“Paradise Island Grill came highly recommended by someone who’s taste buds I give the utmost respect, so I ordered this with the highest of hopes!! And I was not disappointed- the oxtails were seasoned to perfection.

The rice and peas were also pretty tasty, as was the sauce that came with it. The flavours from the Jamaican spices, butter beans, thyme and other ingredients all blended really really well and were definitely really moreish.

I was also happy with the portion size, well worth the cost; andddd now that I am moving nearby, I’m pretty sure that they will be seeing more of me.“
