    California burrito with fajita sides
    Hannah H.

    The California burrito is so big, it looks like a meal you would win for free if you could finish it. Not that anyone in my family could finish it, but it's really good!

    Remodeled!! The new expanded patio. Bummed the kids play area is gone though. Food was great like always.

    This place is kind of hit or miss for me and my family. When the food is good it's exceptionally delicious and awesome, but other times it's just "eh." The food is reasonably priced, and they have specialty dishes I haven't seen anywhere else. Well, perhaps it's because I've never looked -- I'm not exactly "adventurous" when it comes to Mexican food. ;-) The great: We LOVE the outdoor patio with a play area for the kiddos and TVs (football!) for the adults = YES!!!! They have a lot of available seating even though it's always busy, they keep everything clean, and the service is very friendly and efficient. Overall, I'd definitely recommend it if you're out in the OC!

    Chips and salsa

    Who goes to a Mexican restaurant and orders a cheeseburger and fries? THIS GIRL!!! On this particular day everyone wanted Mexican for lunch but I wasn't feelin' it. Luckily the nice gentleman who waited on us allowed me to order the cheeseburger off the kids menu. HAHAHAHA!!! For less that six bucks I had a huge meal and it was soooo good! I was a little surprised to be honest. The burger actually came with little potato smiley faces but he offered me fries instead. The burger was really tasty and was made with a double patty. The fries were hot and crispy. The only condiments they had was ketchup, but that was just fine with me! I did have some chips and salsa and I must say it was pretty great. Some of the best I've had. On my next visit I'll probably try the fish tacos. They looked great!!

    This is my second time eating here. The food is fine, the servers are nice, and the bathrooms are clean.

    After dinner laughter!! Cheap but good margarita's might have helped with that a little lol

Rich, flavorful, and completely addictive, it disappeared fast. The warm butter rolls arrived alongside pesto butter, but I stayed loyal to regular butter. No regrets. A quick shoutout to our server, Devante. He was new, but you'd never know it. Friendly, attentive, and impressively knowledgeable about the menu, he handled everything like a seasoned pro and made the experience even better. For dinner, I ordered the chicken piccata with mashed potatoes and Brussels sprouts. While the chicken was excellent, the Brussels sprouts stole the show--perfectly cooked, packed with flavor, and easily the standout item on my plate. Dad went with the Mediterranean chicken, mashed potatoes, and broccoli. The chicken was a winner, though the broccoli was a bit tougher than expected. Mom chose the voodoo shrimp and fries, but honestly, her true love affair of the evening was with the lobster dip. I'm fairly certain she consumed enough of it for the entire table. By this point, we were all happily full. But there was still one reason to save room. The strawberry shortcake. Light, sweet, and absolutely unforgettable, it was the highlight of the entire meal. The kind of dessert that quiets the table and leaves everyone smiling after the last bite. That alone is reason enough to come back.

First off, the location is prime and the venue is perfectly designed for the space it occupies. The wall of windows looking out to market/4th provide an excellent backdrop and light the space well in the afternoon/evening. The lounge style dining area has some excellent, comfortable furniture to relax and enjoy conversation. Of course, there are also more traditional sort of tables to sit at if you aren't into lounging. Long story short, vibes were great. The service was also stellar. Our server was Cole, and he made sure that we had a fantastic anniversary dinner. He had us wanting for naught, and made excellent recommendations for both food and drink. Top talent! Speaking of food and drink, magnificent! 10 ounce filet cooked perfectly medium and seared beautifully, a savory potato au gratin, steak hand pies with a nice, flaky crust, and delicious lobster bisque. All paired with a couple bourbon ball martinis and old fashioneds. If you are thinking of going, don't hesitate. You won't be disappointed and we will be back!

The American breakfast had large potato pieces, good sausage, and made to order eggs. Hot coffee was on the better side for hotel coffee. Dinner: they were super accommodating, as we were traveling with a friend with an infant. I called ahead to let them know we would come in with a stroller, and they made sure to sit us in an area where the stroller was not in the way of servers or other guests. Our server was one of the most attentive people I have ever met, and every recommendation they gave was fantastic. We started with the oyster rockefellar and the spicy tuna tartare. The oysters were massive and the tuna dish was so good, we got it a second time later in the weekend. We all got steaks for our mains and added a lobster tail - there was a mix up with the lobster tail taking a bit and they ended up bringing out the largest lobster tail to make up for it. All steaks, their sides, and sauces were fantastic- better than most I have had in the DC area. The food was all rich so under order or share amongst friends. Cocktails were of course fantastic, from espresso martinis to the famous smoked old fashions. We had drinks at the bar another night and the service was just as good, though they did tell us that they didn't serve the drink in a smoke box when we certainly had one just a night before.

They offer valet parking for $14, but street parking was easy to find and just a short walk away. We started with the Caesar salad and the wedge salad. Both were good, although the wedge had a bit too much dressing for my taste. I ordered the filet with mashed potatoes, asparagus, and mushrooms. The filet was excellent, and while I'm not usually a mushroom person, these were truly outstanding. The bread was also some of the best I've ever had. I also ordered one of the mocktails, which I enjoyed because it wasn't overly sweet. The reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is the service. Our waiter was efficient, but he wasn't particularly friendly, and the entire meal felt rushed. Several times, someone tried to clear my plate while I was still eating. We also had to ask for more time more than once before ordering because we felt pressured to make decisions quickly. With a bill of over $300, I expected a more relaxed dining experience where we could enjoy the evening at our own pace.

We were greeted with an anniversary card and complimentary champagne for a toast - a very nice touch. We ordered a mimosa and red sangria from the brunch cocktail menu - $8 each. Wife enjoyed the mimosa and the sangria was a generous pour and very tasty. Then they brought out a basket of fried biscuits with cinnamon butter - outstanding! For our entrees, she had the Lobster Avocado Toast, which came with two large slices topped with avocado, sunny-side up eggs and massive chunks of lobster served with a side of roasted, parmesan crusted tomatoes, and I ordered the Crispy Chicken & Waffle, Nashville Hot style, which also came with thick-cut bacon. Both dishes were magnificent! I cleaned my plate and she could only finish one of the pieces of toast, so we boxed up the other. Finally, we unexpectedly received a large slice of chocolate cake as a complimentary dessert. We were so full we had it boxed up to take with us. The staff really went above and beyond, and the food and beverages were outstanding. All of this for less than $60, plus tip. Could not have been a better experience. Don't sleep on this place!

When we walked in there were about 4 hostesses standing behind the counter. When we asked if they would be able to seat us they looked us over. The one hostess we were talking to kind of laughed and another hostess walked over to the first one, whispered something in her ear. Then the first one said they couldn't seat us. My daughter asked how long the wait was. The hostess paused and finally said about 30 minutes. We left because the vibe they were giving us was that they didn't want to seat us which I didn't understand. We were well dressed so I couldn't imagine it was our attire, but that was the vibe they were giving us. When we left, I told my kids it must be because we didn't have a reservation. I was trying to the hostesses the benefit of the doubt. My daughter got online and made a reservation for 30 minutes out, as we all decided we really wanted to try Stoney River. We walked back in 5 minutes before our reservation. Now there were about 5 hostesses behind the counter. I could tell from their faces that they recognized us and a couple of them were whispering again. I walked up to the counter and gave them our reservation information and they said ok. While we were eating we saw them walking by the kitchen looking at us again. This was not a look as if they were checking on us. Our server was nice and did a good job. The food and wine were fine but I have to say the experience with the hostesses really ruined the experience that I couldn't even focus on the food. Unfortunately, we won't be back. It was the oddest experience I've ever had at a restaurant.

They created our birthday girl as a reservation for 2 instead of 6 and helped us surprise her at the table. The lighting is a bit dark but that helped the surprise. The manager brought out a sparkling wine and the chef sent out an amuse bouche. The pimento spread was so good we took a pint home for $20 (shhh secret). Our waitress Mo was professional a helpful with meal suggestions and separating some mushrooms for me. The shrimp appetizer is delicious and had 9 shrimp. The corn fitters come in 4 and Mo added 2. They were okay but I'd try something different in the future. The whole large kernels were odd in a light fritter. Our meals were fantastic. Everyone raved about bites of the filet and the chicken dish. The bolognese is a staple in the menu and was almost the perfect bite, perhaps a bit more meat in the sauce but the pasta was perfect. I had the wild boar and goat cheese polenta. The polenta didn't have a strong goatyness to it but was creamy, I ate it all. The boar was done to just short of falling off the bone. I used a piece of the grilled bread from my friends pasta to finish the meal. The wine list is short but complex. We had the Rioja red, so dry and smelled of old leather, but was a perfect wine to cut through the richness of the dishes. Our seat had a great view of the whiskey wall (almost every seat does) and it was a conversation piece the whole evening. Oh, forgot to mention the manhattan can be made into a black manhattan- outstanding. Best I've had in a restaurant. We are already making plans for our parties next birthday in July and will be asking for Mo. she was there at every turn throughout the meal. Pleasant and there to help at any point. The manager checked on us two times. WHP does fine dining so well. I haven't had such a wonderful evening for everyone in quite some time. We will be back and highly recommend. Will be sending out an executive's here when they are looking for L'ville dining. Well done. Sorry no pics, the room is dark and the ones I took don't do the meal justice.

Food 2.5/5: This obviously carries the most weight. The menu itself is excellent and the descriptions and components of each dish sound perfect. The execution was way off! Literally everything was far too salty and we ordered things that should not be salty... diver scallops and black cod. These are delicate proteins that don't need much help. Why oh why over-salt these?! Oddly the cook on both was very good but the seasoning ruined both dishes. Drinks 4.5/5: We had 3 different cocktails all of which were excellent.
