    Loud, chaotic, slow, unorganized. But its near the Verizon Center, so what do you expect? Food was decent and well-priced. Would I go back? No.

    I have been to The Smith many times. I have not always been pleased with the food and service, but today was exceptional. Food was very good and the service was attentive.

    The omelette I ordered looked and tasted like it was from an airplane menu. It definitely was NOT made from freshly cracked eggs. The “quarter pounder” chocolate chip cookie was about 3 oz short of a quarter pound. It was an average size, average tasting cookie. The waiter was kind enough to put a scoop of hazelnut ice cream on it, which made the cookie moister. Brunch per person was about $25, which is cheap these days, but the food wasn’t even worth that price.

    If you’re a sticky toffee pudding fan you need to try it here. Staff was very attentive. Kind of noisy but that was due to all the Capitals fans excited for the game.
