We ordered the wings, a burger, and the Carolina pulled pork sandwich, and everything was amazing. The wings were full of flavor, the burger was juicy and cooked perfectly, and the pulled pork sandwich had that perfect smoky, tangy balance. It's always hit or miss trying new spots when you're traveling, but this one was definitely a win.

The Crowne Plaza front desk gave me a 15% OFF coupon at check-in too. The Sparkle Sangria was very good, and I ordered a second. I ordered the Maryland Blue Crab Dip and Wedge Salad. The toasted baguette wedges were a nice accompaniment to the hot dip. But the dip was unexciting and bland. It took so long for the salad to come out, I was about to tell them to forget about it. The bacon on the wedge salad was a bit undercooked. Maybe this is me -- but part of the appeal of Wedge Salad is slicing into the crispy lettuce wedge. PST serves there's already sliced. The service as a little slip-shod but friendly. If I stay at the Crowne Plaza Crystal City again, I might stop in for a drink-- but would skip dinner.

My weakness? chicken wings!…read more Minding my business... Curious about Happy Hour, I stopped into 15th & Eads Bar, located inside the Marriott Hotel. Happy Hour Monday-Friday | 4:00-6:30 PM I ordered the plain Crispy Wings, served with fresh, crunchy carrot and celery sticks. As always, I requested my wings "cooked twice." Mission accomplished; quick service and a good value too! Hot. Meaty. Tender. Juicy. Plump. Crispy. Flavorful. Every bite was satisfying. I alternated between using my hands and flatware, pairing the wings with BBQ sauce and ranch dressing. The wings had plenty of flavor on their own, but both sauces were excellent complements. Just as enjoyable as the food was the atmosphere. I appreciated the laughter, light conversations, and relaxed energy throughout the bar. Sometimes that's exactly what Happy Hour should be. I'll definitely be back!!

Let's start with service: Although the server promptly handed me a menu, she disappeared for the next 22 mins. She walked past my table 4 times, but never came to check on me. When I initially sat down, the table next to me ordered salads & beers. They were nearly done with their food before I was able to place an order. Presentation: The menu is very straightforward, but there are definitely some liberties taken with the descriptions of the food. I opted to order the pork belly tacos, and because I love them, I also ordered a side of hush puppies. I don't eat a lot, so I figured I'd have leftovers to take up to my room. Food: Imagine my surprise when I was presented with the sorriest 4 pork belly tacos I've ever seen. Each was maybe a bite and a half. My Apple Watch was almost bigger. They came with a green chile sauce & pico de gallo. Both bowls of sauce were twice the size of the tacos. Speaking of, the tacos were overstuffed with cabbage & onions, & maybe a hint of pork. I was very glad I ordered the hush puppies. Until I had a look at them. I received 4 of the most overcooked, flavorless hush puppies I've ever eaten. And inside they had crab, I did not receive the sauce. I did not finish them. Along with a Heineken, I spent $50. I want my money back.

The garlic noodles and the luo rou fan were also spectacular, rich in flavor, and just mouth watering :) The service was excellent and extremely accommodating! 10/10 recommend!

The grilled chicken taco was my second favorite with good flavor. Their beef taco was just okay for me. Tacos went well with my Kolsch from Bear Chase. As simple as chips and salsa can be, I'd probably get fries instead. Their chips were subpar and salsa was a sweet kind... not for me. Now I'm looking forward to their burger... when I return to the area.
