Our server, Jazelle, was amazing. She was attentive, personable, and fun! She made great recommendations and ensured our experience was a great one. If we have the opportunity to return, we’d absolutely sit in her section again. We had an issue toward the end of our meal (hair in food) and had a short encounter with the restaurant manager that was less than impressive. Engaging with patrons and resolving issues was not his priority. No introduction and no eye contact.

Tater tots appitizer was a big hit. Our group had the Ahi Tuna, Sea Bass, two steaks, and a seafood salad with jumbo shrimp. All were top shelf. Topped it off with the pumpkin cheesecake which was to die for. Great place to have a meal in DC.

What can I say, this place on Sunday was extremely energetic. I suppose it was the Omegas founders day, but still I loved the atmosphere and the music selection. The food was a 10/10 especially the jerk chicken, fall off the bone good literally the salmon was excellent, but had a lot of seasoning. I can definitely see myself coming back with either a small party or a large one. Our waiter,Josh, was amazing and took care of us throughout our brunch session.
