   The outside seating is great. It is right on the Potomac River walk. You can see the Kennedy Center and Watergate Building down the river. There is a plaza with a large water fountain. It is beautiful. That’s where it ends. The place is directly under the flight path on planes taking off from Reagan International Airport every 2 minutes. It is so loud that you can’t speak to a person across the table. To top that off we were buzzed by about 15 hot shot government helicopters, which were louder than the plane. This ruined the whole experience. I would not go back. If you like to listen to jets flying less than 1,000 feet above you, then go.

   Loved the atmosphere and beautiful views of this restaurant. Service and food were good, but not outstanding.

   Very simple, basic food. It could have been one of those “TV dinners” warmed up….. Great location.

   The merchant took $5.50 worth of my Groupon value and the receipt stated it was for gratuity which is insane. Then the supervisor said it was because the merchant does not want to pay the service fee to Groupon, they expect the Customer to pay for their advertising.

   Just average. Nothing great but decent food. The old fashion was not good and poorly prepared.

    Grea place for lunch. We sat along the boardwalk on the water and were happy for shade from ummbrellas. We didn’t go for the food which is passable but not great. Decent French fries and nice ice cream dessert w brownie bits. Awesome bus boy but waiter had too large a section and was underwhelming w his interaction. Overall would go back for ambience and nice basic menu of food
