I went with my wife and son for Father's Day dinner. It was the worst dining experience I've ever had. There were flies in the dining room. It took forever to get our meals. When they came, my broiled lobster tail had turned into a whole boiled lobster. I asked to speak to the manager because I didn't want the... More

Sat on outside deck by waterfront. Crab cake entree was served with asparagus and couscous -- it was delicious. Friend had a nut crusted fish dinner that was also excellent. Our server was very attentive. Jamaican Me Crazy drink was refreshing and decent size for the money. Bread came with meal and was served with a garlic herb butter. Restaurants... More

My wife and I had Brunch here with a few friends. The service was fantastic, the waiters were very upbeat and really nice. The food on the other hand was nothing to brag about. Very simple, no seafood, oysters, etc. The brunch was nothing more than a glorified continental breakfast. A Dennis, Ihop or Waffle House would have served you... More

The locoation is great - super views of the waterfront. But be warned - if the sun is on its way down, you may be in for an eye-squinting suprise at window tables as there are no blinds and it gets pretty bright. We made a reservation and were promptly seated. The service from start to finish was very professional... More

Menu has several choices to please anyone's taste. Seafood, steak, salad, hamburger seemed to be the popular items in our group. Service was outstanding very attentive explained any questions asked.

A quick walk from Wyndham National harbor Resort. Large bar area, somewhat noisey, but if going near sunset time you wil forget about the noise quickly. Great service by barkeeps. Restaurant offers great selection of food. Highly recommend the LumpCrab Cake.. it is 99.9% crab, hardly any filler and best I ever had. Chef and kitchen is Celiac and Gluten... More

This was a decent place with a nice deck overlooking the harbor and great place to watch a sunset. Prices were reasonable, but the service although nice was slow and unattentive. This seems to be the trend in the whole national harbor area.

You can't beat the combination of views of the Potomac River, ambience and Martini's. I normally go during Friday Happy Hour during the Martini specials.The chicken wings are great and the bartender's and servers are very attentive. Whenever I'm at the National Harbor, I have to spend some time here.

Went there for lunch today with hubby. We both had the salmon from lunch menu for $15. Good portions, presentation, lots of fresh green beans, salmon had a nice mandarin orange spicy sauce. I was to substitute Cole slaw for couscous. Today was overcast, but view was still great.

They have a sunset clock near the bar that counts down the time to a great sunset....overlooking the water, tremendous menu of seafood, both appetizers and entrees, service every-time we go has been right-on and very timely....highly recommend when you are in National Harbor and worth the trip when you visiting Washington DC
