Best Waterfront Restaurants in Washington DC

We opted for the rooftop igloo for our party of 3. The spread was fantastic and huge portions. The 3 wine options were all great and the views were just perfect. The addition of the space heater to supplement the pillows and blankets was clutch and the Bluetooth speaker was a fun touch!

2nd time in as many months, saved room for deserts this time, but lacked. Things that could be better softer doughnuts, softer cookies, softer bread pudding. Was that supposed to be cream cheese frosting on the carrot cake? French toast bland and dry, wish we had waffles, I love this place, these would be things I would tweak.

We have been to a number of Hell’s Kitchens, mostly with excellent results but sometimes not so much. Our experience in the Washington DC restaurant was outstanding. All aspects of the experience were at the very high level we would expect. The service was excellent and we had warm and accommodating attention the whole night. One of the wait staff even went the extra mile and secured for my daughter the iconic Hell’s Kitchen pin! Kitchen was operating on all thrusters! We had filet, short ribs, and salmon, all of which were cooked to perfection. The sides of potatoes au gratin, macaroni and cheese, and braised brussel sprouts were also exceptionally tasty. Finally, the Caesar salad they brought out was enough for the whole table. The only ding I would say was that it was a bit noisier than we prefer and we did have the unfortunate luck to be seated next to a booth that did have two small children who were a bit rambunctious and noisy. But having had four children ourselves who are all now grown, we well understand and accept the travails of taking young children out to dinner. Overall, our experience was excellent and we will return again when next in DC.

I enjoyed my time at Tony and Joes on Thanksgiving Day 2024. The host, staff and manager were very pleasant and eager to see that my family and myself had enjoyed our visit. The food was well prepared and I enjoyed the view of the Potomac river. I will come back again.

Excellent brunch menu! The service staff could be a bit more attentive, but no complaints outside of that.
