- OTOpenTable DinerWashington, D.C. Area •1 review5.0Dined on Mar 1, 2025Let me start with the food, good and a nice size portion, the place looks nice however it is tight in there. It’s a two level place just to inform those that like to sit up stairs. There was an event going on at time, but the server RJ made sure she assisted us in a good time. RJ good server, nice, and respectful. The appetizer was good love how the shrimp was big and thick, my cousin said the calamari was ok. Our entrance took a little long to come out but our server RJ did apologize. I’m not sure about there drinks due to I had water, my cousin wasn’t to proud with her drink, Overall nice place, good food, and solid vibes. If I was to rate this 3.5/4 out of 5.More infoCapitol Square Bar & GrillPrice: Moderate• African• Capitol Hill•4.6
