    We dined here and decided to try The Voyage menu option which includes an appetizer and entree. The mixed greens salad is one of my favorites whenever I dine here and the bourbon glazed salmon was cooked perfectly. My diners enjoyed the lobster carbonnara and clam chowder which are also long-time favorites. The restaurant was very busy and service was a bit slow but we were comfortable and enjoyed pleasant conversation. There was no rush to eat and run.

    I really, really appreciate this restaurant and location. I’ve had a few holiday parties here over the past few years. The value and quality of food is great. The service is personal and very attentive. We hold an annual Ugly Christmas Sweater party that coincides with another event, and we pick different restaurants annually. I’m of the mindset to just keep it at M&S because they are just wonderful to work with. Hats off to management and our amazing waitress 18DEC2024.

    Dining with a guest from out of town we ordered lobster carbonara and blackened chicken Caesar salad, with clam chowder starters. The soup was very good. The salad was drowned in dressing with unseasoned chicken served on the side. The lobster carbonara was a small amount of bucatini in a large bowl with the tiniest lobster bits I’ve ever seen. Our waitress was friendly but inexperienced and not very knowledgeable. We paid over $100 for this meal, which was worth about half that. I would not return to this particular restaurant.

    This is my second bad experience at this restaurant, separated by several months. Poor service (had to find/flag down our server several times), appetizer was overcooked, and extremely loud venue. I’ll avoid this restaurant in the future.

    The food was great, but our service was very slow and it took awhile to get a drink and she hardly came around. She’d only ask one person if they needed or wanted anything before walking away.

    I had the Thanksgiving meal which was good and a good portion for the price. My wife had the stuffed salmon which was also good.

    The food was very traditional and delicious with ample portions. I liked the idea of making the pumpkin pie optional in a traditional Thanksgiving menu. Our waitress Maria remembered us from last Christmas on K Street. I like the decor of the Crystal City location.

    Our Thanksgiving dinner was very good with all the usual choices. We had excellent service from the waitress. I think her name is Vada - she is from Ukdrania.I
