Great atmosphere! Great service. Crab-cakes were disappointing(heavy dry breading) but the beef spring rolls and fresh catch were good.

Always a favorite for us! This time, my steak was just over cooked but they did replace it for me. And, I got a free dessert for my birthday! My husband was sad that they no longer serve a smoked old fashioned. Our server, Jake, did a great job as well.

What a great experience! Easter Sunday evening, not a lot of places are open, especially not one of this Caliber with the exceptional service that they always offer. Becca was my server, and my bartender, great wine selection assist as well. Food was fantastic, I had the duck, and it was really good. I highly recommend this place, you can’t beat the people there. 😎

While most our experience at The Wash House was lovely the food was quite a disappointment. The Wash House salad was delicious but I was disappointed in the blackened fish of the day and the fried soft shell crab both which lacked much flavor at all. My husband’s beet salad was laughable as it was painfully small and he says his entree of fillet mignon and shrimp were just okay. Our desserts were just okay as well. Our server was amazing as was the ambience but the food just didn’t match the prices. For $250 I expected much much more!
