    Jollof bowl
    Joshua K.

    I recently went to Nuli for a weekday lunch of a jollof rice bowl and was underwhelmed. It is typical downtown DC lunch fare-mediocre, a bit overpriced, but gets the job down. Most of the bowl was the rice and it was oversalted. The meat and vegetables were fine but nothing remarkable.

Well Joe's Seafood checks every box and some others I didn't mention. The entire staff is professional, in a warm welcoming way. They ensure that your experience is a delightful one, filled with superb pampering service. And then there's the food !!! This is when I was totally floored... for starters the assorted bread basket for the table is absolutely delicious ( I literally had to force myself to stop alternating between the muffins and mini biscuits ) Since I was eating light today I ordered the seafood salad ( chilled lobster & shrimp on top ) and the salad was so fresh and had that crisp salad crunch that mesmerized my taste buds with every bite !!! DC hands down is one of the top restaurant city's in the country and Joe's Seafood, Prime Steak & Stone Crab is a big reason I can make that statement with absolute confidence !!!

Their seafood tower is a must if you have a few people willing to share. Joe's also offers a great 3-course lunch special from 11:30-4 and cocktail hour from 2:30 - 6:00 for the power lunch and/or happy hour crowd. Classic restaurant, great service, and something for everyone.

    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 finally checked out Hank's Oyster Bar for their Monday $1 oyster special, and it lived up to the…read morehype. 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.

Its menu is seafood focused but there really is something for everyone. I've visited for brunch and HHs and enjoyed each visit. Personal favorites: The coal roasted oysters, miso butter in particular, are fantastic. I literally dream about them LOL. The grilled calamari is smoky yet vinegary and vibrant. The beet and burrata salad has a great texture as a compliment to the grilled dishes. For brunch, I have enjoyed the Chesapeake Benedict and the mushroom frittata. Overall, the seafood is so fresh and high quality. Portions are great for sharing yet not super sized and it is so delicious that you won't bring anything home. If you are budget conscious and enjoy oysters, the half price raw oysters plus a few appetizers will be a great way to enjoy Cordelia Fishbar. Cocktails: a creative menu and beautiful glassware. The mocktail menu is not as large as I hoped but the flavor offerings are not too sugary. Highly recommend adding this to your brunch and HH spots and enjoy!

I tried the calamari, first time having too, and I was shocked with how well it was. I had a large meal the day before so I munched on a salad for dinner which hit the spot. I ended up finishing my grandmothers burger which was also delicious. I forgot what the dessert was called but everyone shared it and enjoyed it.
