Ordered a gin and tonic at the bar that came without lime or enough ice. Visually unappealing. Cocktails should look refreshing. Our server was incredibly nice. Food was good nothing memorable and perhaps it was colored by our experience. We were advised to order 3-4 dishes per person. There were 3 of us and we ordered 10 dishes. You do not need 3-4 dishes a person. It was way to much food for us AND it all came to the table around the same time. No spacing out. It was unappealing to have so much food sitting on the table and our hot dishes were getting cold. Wish we had ordered 3- 4 to start and then ordered as needed. So much food leftover. Our last bottle of wine was ordered with plenty of time to enjoy with the meal but it came when we were almost done eating. Unfortunately, we were on the restaurants schedule, they were not on ours.

Music was loud and they couldn't turn it down due to "corporate set it that way". Food was excellent but over priced. Wine list by the glass is limited. 20% gratuity included. Excellent service. Parked at the hotel valet for $18, card only.

I went to this restaurant in dc and jumped right away when I could make a reservation. The check in was a bit ridiculous. There was a line of people waiting to check in with 3 people at the front with what looked like tablets to check in but all three had to do each parties check in, complete with asking a slew of questions I was asked when finally seated. Then once I checked in, I had to wait until someone who had my name wrong came to get me I’m sure all of this is due to the restaurant being new but the food service was perfect.
