   Loved it! My husband had the much heralded Beef Wellington and I had the branzino. We shared the lobster risotto and the Brussel sprouts. I thought the branzino would fall far short of his Wellington because that is all people kept talking about but I was wrong! My branzino was fabulous especially when paired with the flavorful Brussel Sprouts. It was worth the money and the service was terrific. I would have given the waiter a better tip but could not get past the service charge of 20%. It’s exorbitant and I think asking people to pay a 40% up charge on an already expensive meal is ridiculous. They should stop that. The restaurants should be sharing a portion of that service charge with the waiters in my opinion. But if they don’t, I am not going to assume that ridiculous overcharge. I did tip, but not even close to what I normally would. The sticky toffee pudding was good but imo the lemon blueberry cheesecake was even better—my husband got that. Anyway—it was a great meal! And the view was beautiful.

   Not worth the high prices at all. Seafood apps were overcooked which was pretty bad. Had to wait a while to be seated despite having a reservation. All over fine but meh experience. Worst option we have tried at this price point in DC.

   Everything was great but the 20% service charge was added and it’s not considered a tip. The server explained they don’t get anything other than what we added in addition to the top. While the food is great, their business practices are not and for that reason we will not be returning.

   It was my birthday and I was excited to go . Beautiful Location and pretty restaurant But OK you’re ready to hear this comment .. So they couldn’t cook a med well filet mignon to save their life ! Twice brought out a rare steak I mean blood juice on plate . My Wellington dish was room temp not hot but tasted good . Manager only came out once . We had an event aft dinner so of course now running late . Told them never mind on a third try so didn’t eat steak dinner but thankfully ordered Mac n cheese side so that was dinner. Waiter was nice but still. Then beware they charge 20% surcharge just to eat there and tell you it’s not a “tip” needless to say $200+ later for 3 people no alcoholic drink to justify cost and one guest didn’t eat !!! Not a great birthday dinner experience at all. Sad this happened cuz the Las Vegas one we ate at was great . disappointed ☹️

   DC residents are tired of seeing a 20% service charge mandated on the restaurant bills. Your solution is to simply raise prices on the menu. Not only did Hell’s Kitchen charge 20%, the receipt asked customers to leave a tip.

   Service by Lou was excellent and the restaurant was beautiful with a lovely view of the water. The butternut squash soup and meatball appetizers were both tasty. We really enjoyed the beef wellington with its delicious sauce but the elote corn side was extremely oversalted. The toffee bread pudding dessert was amazing and the perfect end to a wonderful evening.

    The food and service is amazing! This isn't a casual dining experience for most and will be expensive. You get your money's worth and will enjoy the experience. If you want a more romantic seat, get one near the windows, as the kitchen area is bustling with staff and guests.
