Best Seafood Restaurants in Mount Vernon

The service and food were amazing. Our server, Oscar was particularly the best! Perfect birthday dinner celebration with my family visiting from Los Angeles and NYC.

Fantastic restaurant. The calamari is simply superb as well as the dry aged rib eye

Great place for good, affordable food. Atmosphere is nice as they nod to the local neighborhood: Chinatown and a lot of paintings as the Portrait Gallery is across the street. I did find the buffalo chicken wings to be very small in size so maybe not worth the price, but our entrees were good and good size portions.

We had such a delightful experience at Estuary! We were in DC for business/vacation and wanted to try somewhere special and romantic. We were seated near the corner so had views out both windows of the pretty Christmas lights and the beautiful water feature below. The service was incredible--Lauren took such good care of us! The food was fantastic and it all tasted very fresh. We had the crab cakes and I may be spoiled forever because these were simply outstanding--lots of whole, sweet crab chunks and little if any filler. Loved the green sauce and the tiny veggies it was served with! I had the mushroom risotto and husband had the NY strip steak. Both were delicious. All of the dishes were plated artfully, which enhanced the experience. For dessert we had the chocolate bar which is like a layered mousse and was sweet and decadent while still being light. One thing we noticed--because the kitchen is open, we could see food coming out that wasn't on our menu (burgers and other sandwiches and fries, and I think a large slice of chocolate cake?) Those are for the adjoining lounge menu but I wonder if diners could order those as well? We would absolutely return to Estuary to dine again. Everything about it felt special! Kudos to the chef and all other staff members for such a job well done!

I went for my birthday celebration. We had a table of 4. All of the servers were attentive, suggestive with menu items and drinks, and polite. The attire requiring business casual, made the dining experience exceptional for the occasion. It fit the motif and the level service to expect. The food was amazing and creative. I definitely would go again. I would recommend the restaurant for special evenings with family and loved ones as well.
