- GGraceWashington, D.C. Area •2 reviews4.0Dined 2 days agoPearl Dive Oyster Palace is a great seafood spot in DC! They had a selection of 6 different oysters to choose from and had an extensive menu of other seafood options. I do think the price of the oysters were somewhat expensive ($3.40 per oyster), but would be a good option for a happy hour after work sitting at the bar. Overall, I loved the ambience, food, and service. Great drinks, too!! I got the espresso martini and it was lovely.More infoPearl Dive Oyster PalacePrice: Expensive• Seafood• Logan Circle•4.8

- RRichardVIPWashington, D.C. Area •88 reviews5.0Dined on Feb 5, 2025At first I was not impressed with the limited offerings for Restaurant Week. However, it turned out this was a great choice. The clam chowder was very light but wonderful and a full bowl. The spicy shrimp sandwich which was excellent came with a huge amount of home made fries. The dessert was a big bowl of chocolate mousse with nuts and small marshmallows on top and brownie underneath! I would have ordered any one of these by itself but for the special $35 restaurant week price it was great!More infoThe Salt Line - BallstonPrice: Expensive• Seafood• Arlington•4.6
