Best Seafood Restaurants in Mount Vernon Triangle

I have been a patron of Ocean Prime for years in the Columbus Ohio location, but I moved to the DMV and my experiences at the DC location have been subpar. Steven single handedly turned that around last night. It was my brother’s birthday, and he has special needs (Downs Syndrome). Our waiter, Steven went above and beyond in making sure he was catered to, and the rest of the table too. He checked in regularly and we didn’t want for anything. 10/10 across the board.

This was our first visit to Mastro's and the food and service were superb! We enjoyed every morsel of food...even my 10 year old son enjoyed his steak and said it was delicious 😋! I also want to acknowledge LK, who was our server. He was great and so accommodating even though he was extremely busy. I really appreciated him taking care of us the way he did!

Franklin our server was the ultimate professional and made our 37th Anniversary very special. The entire experience tonight was superb!!! I salute the executive chef!!! Kudos!!!

My husband and I and three friends once again celebrated our Christmas lunch at Joe's and it never disappoints. The four of us sea food lovers split between the grilled seafood platter (lobster tails, shrimp, and scallops) and the crab cakes, which we all agreed were outstanding and portions large enough we all took about half of our entrees home. The eight once filet mignon, was a hit with my husband. Sides of creamed spinach, roasted Brussel sprouts, potatoes Lyonnaise, were wonderful. The complementary bread basket contains a variety of several different small rolls, all freshly made. An extensive wine list complimented our meals. Desserts we tried included key lime pie, a golden ice cream sunday, and peppermint ice cream with fudge sauce. Joe's is justly well known for it's delicious pies. Service was attentive, friendly, but not obtrusive. This is a classic steak house and seafood establishment with a wonderful ambience of dark wood and elegance. However, it is expensive and they are adding an additional 3 percent to the check for "rising costs", though you can ask them to remove that charge. The menu is traditional, not for those looking for an adventurous eating experience.

From the time you are warmly greeted at the door, through to the baked Alaska flambe' table side, it was an excellent experience. Convenient to DC MetroRail, expect a perfectly prepared seafood dinner. The salmon and branzino we had was outstanding. Our waiter was superb. Enjoyed the complimentary olive veggie snack plate and hot sourdough. And Landrys rewards are a big plus- saved us $25!
