   The food and service were excellent. However, we had to wait over 30 minutes for our main course, even though we were informed that it would be ready at 10. Despite this minor inconvenience, I thoroughly enjoyed my experience. The view will undoubtedly be the main reason why I’ll be returning to this place.

   Brunch event. Top food quality. Nothing overcooked or drier out. Plenty of helpful staff.

   We sat upstairs, it was beautiful. Our hostess was bit stiff but out waiter was great! The food was good and there’s a large variety.

   Service and food is top notch! Loved every dish recommended by the chef! The view is not what I was expecting since it was dinning on the main floor. Do recommend it but please request second or 3rd floor sitting if you enjoy views like me.

   I’ve always raved about this place in the past, but after my recent visit, I’m not sure I’ll be back. We arrived at 2pm for what’s supposed to be a $75, two-hour dining experience. From the start, the service was a mess. The host on the first floor told us our table was upstairs. Once we got to the second floor, the host there had no idea where our table was and had to go back downstairs to figure it out. We ended up waiting around for 15 minutes before finally being seated. Unfortunately, the food didn’t make up for the rocky start. The seafood didn’t seem fresh. The lobster tails were clearly frozen and not fully thawed, and the shrimp tasted off. For a place that used to deliver great quality, this was really disappointing. Even though this was advertised as a two-hour experience, they started putting food away around 3:30pm—just an hour and a half in. Around 4pm, a manager came over and told us they needed to start preparing for dinner service and that we had to get going. We hadn’t even received our check yet. When we explained that, he came back later looking visibly annoyed—only to find we were still waiting on the bill. Instead of coming a second time to give us a look that he was annoyed, the manager should have checked with the server to see why we hadn’t received our check in the first place. It felt rushed and disorganized from start to finish. Just not a pleasant experience, and sadly, I won’t be returning. The service and overall quality have gone way downhill. Not worth the price or the hassle. We were a group of six and our check came to around $1,000. I would’ve gladly spent that money somewhere else—where the service is attentive and the food leaves you satisfied, not disappointed.

   This was our fourth time at Limani, but our first time at brunch. Limani did not disappoint! Despite being a buffet, brunch was amazing! The seafood selections were great! The prime rib at the carving station was excellent.

   Limani is one the best most romantic restaurants in DC to be with your beloved, family, close friends. Choose upstairs seating overseeing the water and you'll be rewarded with an amazing view of Washington and Arlington landmarks. The food is amazing. Choose a whole branzino prepared traditionally in salt and the serving presentation that follows. Appetizers are of the best quality. They serve traditional Greek wines by the glass and other pairings befitting any occasion. My wife and I celebrated our wedding anniversary at Limani and it was beyond excellent. Overall satisfaction was guaranteed and we will be back.
