   The team was very attentive to us during dinner. It was a great experience and the food was above average and delicious. This is not our first time here and we loved everything once again!!!

   Best brunch in DC! Lobster, oysters, crab, prime rib and yummy desserts. Bottomless mimosas option. Service was wonderful. There was even a belly dancer. I cant wait to go back.

   The Spanakopita is legitimately a top 5 dish that I’ve ever had. Not just spanakopita, top 5 of any food. Outstanding!

   Server was very friendly and attentive but didn’t catch her name. Appetizers (octopus, lemon soup and spanakopita) were all very good. Entrees were not up to par, swordfish lacked flavor and filets while they had good flavor, were both somewhat chewy, temp was way off on one, ordered mw and it was mr but didn’t want to wait for a recook. The last time we ate there a year ago the filets were amazing not sure what happened. Orange cake was excellent.

   Really did enjoyed the food here. The service, not so much. DC has made dining in the District so insanely unpleasant. While I really enjoyed the food, ambiance and waterfront views, I seriously doubt I will be back to Limani again. The restaurant is very noticibly understaffed. Our server was not a bad server, just an overwhelmed one who could benefit from more help with service. In fact, I really do think he was doing the best he could. And while I think he definitely earned a tip, 20% is not at all what I had in mind. And the fact that it is mandated that a customer must pay 20% gratuity, the restaurant is now free to provide whatever service they feel is adequate. So after fighting DC traffic, paying to park, the cost of the meal and a 20% gratuity for less than mediocre service I do not see myself dining in DC anytime soon. Otherwise, if you are reading this and you have the patience for overpriced, slow service, the brunch is delicious at Limani and you just might enjoy it.

    I had dined at Limani previously and I knew how great the food is and want a beautiful restaurant it is. However I had never been for brunch, I saw the video on TikTok and knew I had to try it. I was not disappointed the food was delicious. We celebrated a friend’s birthday we all had a wonderful time.
