Had a great time as always. Our waiter was hustling! But he was working a large space by himself. They definitely need my servers on a Saturday night.

I love this spot right beside the iconic Ben's Chili Bowl. Nice woody ambiance and great food! The Ducasse was great as well.

Great restaurant in the U street area of D.C. next door to the famous “Bens Chilli Bowl†& food is great. I’ve been going for brunch for years then I stopped once they took the bottomless mimosas off the menu, however, they are back & so am I. My favorite item off the brunch menu would have to be the shrimp & grits, followed by the salmon cakes. If you go during brunch please, please, PLEASE sit at the bar and have Chris serve you. He’s amazing. Your glass will never be empty, that’s if you’re drinking mimosas:)

Great Food & Drinks! AWESOME happy pricing. Their small plates allow for You to try a little of everything you like without breaking the bank! Downside...there's no parking and U Street isn't an area that has much empty street parking! My advice TAKE METRO!

The food is delicious with decent size portions. For lunch, I would recommend the shrimp and grits. The customer service was great with courteous servers and lively bartenders.

The food was absolutely delicious! I got the cauliflower and crab cake entree. First off, I decided that I wanted the crab cakes because someone else ordered them and they smelled so good. The crab cakes were absolutely delicious and full of so much flavor. I’d absolutely return!!!

This is my favorite bar. The music is always on point, service is consistently wonderful, and the food and drinks are worthy of the pricing.

Had a great time playing Heads Up! With some other bar patrons and bar tenders. A fun bar, great bottomless mimosas and good food.

Jerk Chicken Pasta w/ShrimpShutdown Specials. $5 Crown and othersThis has become my favorite location for this dish now that my other place has messed up their recipe. Its $24 for the dish with both chicken and shrimp but I guess that isn't too expensive. The location is kinda cozy and is set up in a way that could be intimate or casual. The only problem I have with it is the level of music. It's loud. You can barely have a conversation and with everyone else trying to talk over the music, it makes it even more difficult. @bensnextdoor_dc is a great place to frequent, I do.#bensnextdoor #bensnextdoordc #bens #pasta #jerkchicken #shrimp #usshutdown #governmentshutdown #restaurant #robsfoodreview
