Perfect spot for a date night. Star was our bartender/server. She was very friendly and made a great mimosa! The food was also very good.

My son and I came here Sunday evening. Service was nice however our food took a while (30 minutes ) and was just ok. Considering the cost I would have expected a better presentation. The menu was limited salmon was small and my son's steak wasn't cooked enough. We were pressed for time and missed our train due to the machine not working when it was time to pay. It took over 15 minutes for the machine to take any of my son's bank cards and we had to pay cancellation fees for our Lyft that had arrived. You would think the restaurant would have taken the drinks off at least for the inconvenience but no. First and last time dining here.

Breakfast was really good, a little pricey but convenient. Bartender was friendly and answered questions about area. Nice area to sit by heaters and watch

Thanksgiving 2023 was different for my Mom and I this year since we didn't cook and had dinner here instead. We both ordered from the Thanksgiving Menu; my Mom ordered the turkey and I had the ham. Both had big enough portions for us to take some home for the next day! The service from Ivy and Amy was exceptional! It was my Mom's first time there and she was so impressed by the attentiveness of the staff! She also kept commenting on the holiday decorations and how they created such a warm and inviting atmosphere! It was icing on the cake when she got to thank Chef Dennis for making her Thanksgiving extra special!

One of my all time favourites in DC. Feels like eating at home, away from home.

We had to send my daughter's chicken tenders back because they were raw...The flatbread pizza was bland and the chicken wings were just ok. Definitely a nice spot for a drink, but I wouldn't eat here again. The service was fine.

Food was really good. Limited options, but what they have they do well. However, service was bar none. We had amazing service every time we ate here. Ivy was the best at night. Servers were extremely nice and caring. Service is what made them 5 stars.

Amazing restaurant attached to the Hilton. Great bar and great food. Dinner menu is limited, however what they do have they do really well. They have happy hour specials at the bar with good apps. Solid kids menu. Breakfast is buffet and is a little pricey, but they have a lot. Now for the big deal with them. Service is bar none best I have ever had. All the servers are so friendly and incredible. They care, and we're so good to my son and I. Ivy especially at dinner. She took the time to talk to us and ask us about our day. I felt appreciated and like we were actually cared about. I cannot say enough for the service and everyone working here. They are just incredible and so nice. My son dropped a glass on accident and they quickly got it cleaned up. Every person working in the restaurant came to check on him and make sure he knew he wasn't in trouble. Absolutely epic. The burger and chicken blt are amazing. Highly recommend it. The vibe of the restaurant is really awesome too. They utilize space well and it is comfy and inviting. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting.

Wonderful service (Alix - very good server) and the food was fantastic! I had the salmon Caesar salad that was perfectly made. My husband had the Wagyu burger that was amazing….we will be back.

We found this bar and restaurant at the bottom of our hotel. It was a hidden gem! We spent a lot of time with our bartender.I applied myself to try every cocktail on their cocktail menu. I didn't quite make it but the ones I had were really great. You really can't go wrong here.

My family arrived late to the hotel one evening, we were all famished after our long trip into the city. Our waiter and the kitchen stayed open a bit after last call for our family to get something to eat. We were very grateful.The waiter was very kind during the evening given the late hour and requests fun the kids.To top things off, we had great food! The Caesar salad was prepared with the perfect amount of Parmesan (a lot ?). My burger was prepared medium rare perfectly. The kids both loved their grilled chicken meals as well.Very thankful to the team!
