Because of busy dinner time on a Saturday night, my friend and I were seated at the bar area and did not get a chance to see the inner spots of the restaurant itself. Came to visit DC for a weekend and love the ambiance of the restaurant and accessible location. I ordered the crab cake sandwich, which I found to be mediocre and slightly dry. However I got the tuna tartar and my friend got the spring pasta dish. I was able to sample her dish and it was definitely on point. The tuna tartar was very flavorful too, though they can lighten on the soy sauce which made it too salty for an after taste. Staff were super friendly and this place overall had excellent service. I would definitely come again if I am in town to check out more of their menu items. Another disclosure that is not related to the restaurant. It certainly feels a bit sketchy at night since there was a suspicious van loitering around. At one point, the doors opened and you can see a bunch of teens smoking weed inside and asking restaurant patrons that are in the outdoor seating if they wanted a hit, opening an invitation into a dark, windowless van. That struck to me as a shady looking neighborhood despite being in the center of all the tourist attractions and central area so be alert in the area at night.
