Wanted a fish dinner for my birthday…read more I give it 4 and not 5 stars because the service after our dinner before our dessert got extremely slow and the desserts were good, not excellent. We started with drinks at the tiny bar. The drinks were quite good. The restaurant is tiny with a very cute three chair bar. It is decorated with items made by the owner. She is very personable and seems to take pride in the fish she buys and serves. Before dinner, they present you with two tiny corn muffins. A nice little touch. We had the octopus appetizer that was probably among the best we've ever had. It was cooked perfectly. My friend had the scallops and said they were quite good, but a tad undercooked, and the sauce was delicious. I had the Bronzino and it was delicious served with grilled zucchini. The sauce was excellent. For desert, my friend had the Affogato, which he said was just good not great. I had the Keylime parfait. The Keylime itself was quite good, but the crust was just a little off. (I was hoping for a candle in my dessert to get a birthday wish as I had noted in the reservation it was my birthday dinner, but alas, no candle. No biggie, but that would've been a nice touch.)

I've been a longtime patron of Joe's for years. I've brought clients here for dinners, gathered…read morewith friends, and have always known Joe's for great food and service. Unfortunately, my wife's first experience was the exception. On our last visit together, the service simply didn't deliver and we ended up leaving. After the manager reached out and encouraged us to give Joe's another chance, I convinced my wife to come back. I'm really glad we did. This time we brought our toddler and ordered the oysters, stone crab, king crab, and bone-in ribeye. Everything was excellent. More importantly, the service was back to the Joe's I've known for years. Our server Kimberly was wonderful, attentive, warm, and took great care of us. Ryan the manager also stopped by personally to apologize and make sure we were having a good experience. What made this visit especially satisfying was seeing my wife finally experience the level of hospitality I had been telling her about all these years. She walked away impressed, and so did I. Great seafood, a proper ribeye, and excellent hospitality. Thank you to Kimberly and the management team for turning things around. Looking forward to many more visits. Keep it up, guys!

We always manage to come here whenever we're traveling. I think the chicken tenders are good but that sauce they serve with them is horrible! So make sure you order something honey mustard or something else lol The chopped salad is the BEST salad! Simple and the vingerette dressing is delicious. The bread that comes out is a variety of different breads that range from onion roll, regular roll, corn bread and even an everything salted cracker. I don't care for the Mac and cheese, it's supposedly a "four cheese" but I can't taste the four cheeses. Very bland and not worth $10! Overall this place has great service and mostly good menu items. The restaurant is pretty dark, so it makes you feel like it's night when you're inside lol and I would suggest bringing a jacket because the air will be on blast. Restrooms are located upstairs but they do have an elevator if needed! I'm only giving four stars because we kept having to remind the waitress about things we asked for and although it was busy, I still felt like she dropped the ball a little bit! But normally Service is usually on point

We had the very large breakfast burrito and the garden vegetable shakshuka. Both were excellent; delivered hot and were well seasoned. The coffee is strong but not acidic. The servers were very helpful and attentive, and responsive to requests for additional items. I would definitely return again for a meal before a play at Arena stage or otherwise.

This past weekend, I finally returned for dinner with a couple of friends after a show at Arena Stage. The restaurant is still stunning. We sat outside to enjoy the Wharf/water views and the summer weather. The food was still great, too. We shared lots of dishes: a half dozen oysters; tempura fried squash blossoms filled with Maryland crab and cream cheese; an heirloom tomato salad with feta and fried shallots; Massaman curry with fragrant herbs, housemade roti, and the fish of the day; a beautiful halibut dish; and a candied Virginia peanut tiramisu. Everything was tasty, but the entrees really blew my mind - beautiful and delicious. We also each had a glass or two of wine, and they have a great wine list. The service was very friendly, but at some point during our early dinner (our reservation was for 5pm), they got busy and our server disappeared a bit as he got busier. Still, it was a lovely dinner overall - exactly the kind of place you want to be on a warm summer day! If you love seafood and summer vibes, Fish Shop should definitely be on your list.

It has been years since I have eaten at Hank's. Too long really. But we wanted some seafood and…read moretheir Dupont location was close so - off we went. We were seated immediately and the dining room is adequate. Sufficiently decorated to make it okay. It is furnished for maximum occupancy which is fine. Think casual place, almost bar with food, not fancy at all. I do not mean for this to be a negative comment. Hank's presents itself as more of a beachside joint, not a high end seafood restaurant. Each of these sorts of restaurants has a place in the spectrum. Our waiter - Keith or Kevin - I'm so sorry but I cannot remember his name - was GREAT! Funny, good at his job, great personality and helpful. He started out with a corny, but cute, joke and he kept getting better all night. The manager too was quite good, professional and friendly. What a great staff! The food is good. I could talk about the lobster bisque (a bit on the strong side) or the flounder (a bit on the salty side). But, honestly, the food was good and I enjoyed it a lot. I did not complain about any of it nor do I think a complaint was necessary. So, as I said before, it had been years since I had last eaten at Hank's. But it won't be that long anymore. I recommend Hank's for a casual seafood meal.

I sat at the bar to access happy hour (bar-only, but oysters are available everywhere). Ordered a dozen oysters, bacon-topped deviled eggs, Old Bay fries, a salmon slider, and a tequila pineapple drink. Everything was solid-- the oysters were fresh, the deviled eggs were flavorful, and the Old Bay fries were perfectly seasoned. The standout for me was the salmon slider-- the sauce was so good I wish I ordered more. Great vibe for a casual happy hour. I'd definitely come back, especially for the $1 oysters.

The wedge salad probably surprised me the most. Because I genuinely enjoyed the dressing in the tiny bits of bacon that they put on it. The shashito peppers were also dressed really nicely and were nicely charred. The tower was really fun to enjoy when you have a larger party. Overall, their food was really good.

It's not us vs them, we are in crab heaven together, just at different ends of the golden table. Okay, so we got the wings, fries, steamed shrimp, and a dozen medium crabs. The cost wasn't bad for what we got and came out to about $70 pp. (There were three of us.) Those fries were delicious. Idk what they did to them but there's something about a hot, crispy fry that makes life alright. We ended up with three baskets. ;) The waitress was handling too many tables though so, she wasn't as attentive as I would have liked. Plus, they also didn't have Sweenlt N low for the unsweetened tea. What is up with that?? The stash in my purse got low on this trip!! I'll be back though.

The hush puppies were the biggest surprise--they were absolutely delicious. The macaroni and cheese was fantastic, the corn on the cob was amazing, and the fries were very good. I didn't try the crab cake myself, but everyone else at our table said it was excellent. I also ordered the steak. While it was a little overcooked for my liking, it was still enjoyable. Overall, I would highly recommend Quarterdeck to anyone visiting the Washington, DC area. The friendly service and great food definitely made it a place I'd come back to.

Unfortunately, the entrees didn't live up to the rest of the experience. The crab pasta was very bland and lacked flavor. The biggest disappointment, though, was the North Shore roast beef. As someone familiar with a true North Shore roast beef, this wasn't even close--it resembled an Arby's roast beef sandwich more than the classic, thinly sliced, rare roast beef piled high on an onion roll. I'd definitely come back for the oysters and drinks, but I'd skip those two entrees.
