    Overall, great experience. The place is beautiful, the service is great, and food is excellent. It was a little loud, but I believe it was expected since it was cinco de mayo. However, I didn’t appreciate the waitress not disclosing that a 20% gratuity was already included in the bill - I almost paid her an additional 20%!

    WE had a table on their outside patio facing the wharf, very pleasant. We enjoyed the dinner. I'd like them to have a few more vegetarian options.

    Fantastic food. The fish tacos are probably the best in DC. The staff is extremely nice and fast. Every restaurant in DC should aim to be this good. Also, this restaurant is fantastic for reunions, birthday parties and events.
