The Point brings the thrill and robust flavors of open flame cooking with the freshest seafood in the city. Perfectly situated at the confluence of the Potomac and Anacostia Rivers, our contemporary design, tranquil open-air patio and premium fire pits, compliment the picturesque and panoramic views. Although we cannot guarantee outdoor patio dining for all of our guests. We will try to accommodate as many requests as we can on a first come first serve basis.

    The restaurant had no heat. They never informed us or warned us. We had made a special trip into time, so we sat and ate in our coats. One of the worst dining experiences I’ve had. The manager admitted that the heat is completely broken and they don’t have the part to fix it. He offered an extremely tepid apology for an unacceptable situation.

    We had their Thanksgiving dinner and everything was delicious. The service is outstanding. The GM even stopped by to see if we were enjoying our meal and shared a recipe with us. Highly recommend

    First one of the reasons we picked the Point is we have eaten there before and your chef/chefs make the best BRUSSEL SPROUTS in D.C. The wait person was extremely attentive and came by many times to be sure we did not need anything., Your bus people were also very attentive. The meal was very tasty and the price was reasonable........shall dine there again soon. Thanks Best Thomas Walsh

    Went to The Point DC for their Thanksgiving on the River. Food was delicious! Good idea to have sides served family style on our table but would have liked for staff to have waited for us to finish eating the crab donuts and other appetizers before putting sides on table so that sides could be hot when we went to carving station. Staff and server were professional and friendly.

    The ambience, food and service was good. The cocktails could do with an upgrade (garnish/ looks ) they were good though.
