    Absolutely loved my experience at Dirty Habit Glass House! The food was excellent, the ambiance was stunning, and the service was top-notch. The whole place is beautifully designed and has such a cute, inviting vibe. The only minor downside is that the bathroom is on the 3rd floor, but it’s a small inconvenience for such a fantastic spot. Overall, I had an amazing time and will definitely be back!

    Everything was wonderful. It's a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for. Our servicer was wonderful and the manager helped my mom who is on a walker to get our of her chair. I felt so good taking my mom here and the food was so clean and tasty. The ingredients was perfect, not too much seasoning and too little just perfect. I will definitely go back again.

    Quiet night because of the snowstorm. I enjoyed the reuben, Lots of corned beef. Perhaps there could a little more Russian dressing to kick it up a notch. My friend liked the salmon salad. He noted that there was more cabbage than lettuce. Overall, we enjoyed! Good spot before the game.

    We dined at The Smith in DC twice for dinner and enjoyed it so much that we returned for lunch the next day! The food was delicious and fresh, with a menu that perfectly suits an American-style restaurant. The staff was very accommodating, and the pricing was moderately valued. We were very satisfied with every visit. Staying at the hotel across the street made it even more convenient. I only wish I had taken food photos to capture how great everything looked! We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in DC from Miami!

    Our dinner on February 11 was excellent - escarole salad and sea bream crudo, and bucatini and squab breast. All the staff, from the host on down, were cordial and helpful, and our server, Adriana was delightful. We look forward to joining you again in the near future.
