Firstly I’d like to call out our lovely service from Tim. That was the best and only good part about this place. The food is a joke. I am always happy and willing to pay exorbitant prices for GOOD food, but Burrough missed the mark on just about everything. $4 for half an egg w a potato chip on it- laughable. The salmon was… fine, minuscule at best but the plating underneath was inedible. We had the duck confit, not good. The ham and melon toast was so underwhelming and bad. The scallop crudo was so random.. just scallop and a glorified tortilla chip. Why?! Burrough was a last resort as it was the only restaurant in the neighborhood that could seat us, and it’s no surprise why. Final time dining there and I want to save you from wasting your time and money.

Mix feelings. They don’t do flights but you can order tasters. So no real difference there, but it would have been better to have the beers lined up or labeled, and not mix up on the table. I enjoyed the beers, they were good and the jumbo pretzel. The service was okay, but the atmosphere on the other hand was sad. Seemed like everything was just an inconvenience, felt kinda depressing.

Outstanding meal - delicious, beautifully plated & nicely paired with wines! Service was attentive but not intrusive, & it was a treat to watch the calm, purposive kitchen ballet from a counter seat. Hope to be back on a future visit!

The major challenge is narrowing down what to order as it all looks and sounds amazing! I am a difficult person to feed as I am gluten and dairy free and this place did not disappoint! Best pizza I have had in years!

This is a cool bar to have a nice cocktail and relax. I had the smore martini, which was amazing, and my husband had a margherita.
They do serve food, but we just went for a drink. I understand that they offer different activities depending on the night..trivia etc.

Food was good! I had a salad and added the cornflake fried chicken breast. Hubby had chicken and waffles. Met the GM Emmy…she was great and found a pair of sunglasses for me after asking where might I be able to purchase some nearby! And they matches my outfit! This place was super cool!

Carefully crafted vegetarian tasting menu with excellent service. Ambiance could have been slightly better given its a fine dining restaurant.

Stopped in Bluejacket for a couple beers, been here before. First review, but a pleasant location in S/E with cool outdoor seating and a great vibe. Appreciated their advertisement, support, and participation in Snalleygaster 2023. Stopped here the day before the festival and it did not disappoint. Keep up the solid brewing Bluejacket!
Me and my 2 kids went to the Tampa location. Enrique and Luke were our servers and they were amazing. This is probably the best service we've had in a long time. The food was good, the drinks were good, and staff was great. We complimented them to the manager, Dominic, afterwards and he was amazing too. We wish we could've gotten the bartenders names because they were also amazing.

I had dinner here and thought the food was very good. The menu offers lots of healthy options, although not as many vegan options as I would have liked.

However, being touted as a healthy food restaurant, I was surprised there were still a lot of appetizers, entrees, drinks, and desserts that were high fat or laced with added sugars. I had to carefully read through the ingredient lists (and go online to fine their nutritional guides) to figure out what I could eat (I have food allergies, need dairy free options and lower fat options).

I decided on their harvest salad with added salmon. It was good, but they were heavy with the dressing (I'd ask for it on the side next time). I liked the addition of the Farro and dates. I asked for a side of pita, which was quite tasty!!

The butternut squash soup with sage was quite yummy (had a bit of spice to it, which was nice). And I finished with an espresso drink with oatmilk, which was very good.

I sat outside, and the atmosphere on their patio (in a gorgeous courtyard lit up with lights on all the trees) was really lovely.

The inside atmosphere was decent enough, but sit outside if you can.

We loved eating and drinking here! We ordered a bunch of beers to try and they were all so good. The food was all so good, and the tater tots are a MUST!! Best tater tots ever!! The place is really well done inside with lots of seating and with a good brewery aesthetic. Classic bar food like sandwichs, burgers, and an assortment of fried foods, all really high quality and delicious. They were playing a lot of sports games on the TVs and people were coming in to watch. You order from a QR code at the table which is super convenient and we got to order more food as we sat. Staff were very attentive and helpful. 4 pack beers are available to go. Definitely will be coming back!

You used to be able to order at your table from a server like usual sit-down kind of restaurants, but I think ever since covid, they have changed to an order at the counter and find a place to sit. It's really bizarre and the flow doesn't work for the place. The line gets so backed up when people don't know what to order or have questions that the line goes up to past the hostess when you come into the restaurant. I barely had enough room to squeeze by people just to look for a table when I came in. It's also bizarre that you can order at your table after you place an initial order at the front counter. And just for the reason that they switched this kind of service for an upscale sort of restaurant, I'm giving it 3 stars. It ruins the vibe and I don't like it. Also, they wanted to be different from Monkeypod and got rid of the butternut squash ravioli and have taro ones instead. It's not as good. I wouldn't order it again.

I ordered my usual mai tais but the first drink had an overripe pineapple slice. The second mai tai was much better, but I'm not sure if it was a different bartender this time. Hamakua mushroom pizza was good but I felt I've had previous times where there were more mushrooms. The pies are good here too.

Wow. My husband and I went to Cafe Alma for our 10 year wedding anniversary. We really loved the atmosphere, the food/drinks and the service was great.

The menu changes every 5-6 weeks but this was our seasonal menu. The warm garlic flan was amazing. The portions, though typical small due to this type of plated service, were large enough to be comfortably full by the end of the meal. My husband had a daiquiri and an old fashion, and I had a N/A Melon Shrub drink and tea. Finished the night with a delicious cappuccino. Everything was fantastic.

There was a 21% surcharge but I didn’t mind paying it, knowing it helps out their staff. They didn’t have a tip line so we left the cash we had on top of it because we had a great experience.

Went here with my boyfriend to celebrate our 2nd anniversary. This had to be one of the best dinners we have ever had. We would put it on par with a Michelin star dinner we had earlier this year. The dishes were unique and surprised us in the most pleasant way. The service was excellent and they really made us feel special for our occasion.

We didn't eat inside so I can't say anything about the atmosphere. But the woman that delivered our food was very friendly and sweet. We had the half pound bacon with fried egg cheeseburgers and fries. Delicious!!!
We've also had them cater where I work with a variety of different food and it was all delicious too. Would recommend them to anybody looking for some great food. Our delivery was supposed to be between 12:15 and 12:30 and she got there at 12:16. 😊
Great place to relax after waking up, and heading out into the world, for your day.

I tried the Baquezo Omelette, which had cream cheese, Bacon, and Chorizo Sausage in it. It was seasoned well, and towards the middle of Omelette, a bite i took OOZED Cream Cheese into my mouth, and it was at that moment that Total Satisfaction stepped onto the scene.

My wife had the Spinach Omelette, with Fruit dish..... and i must say, the Mango and Blueberries put a smile on my face (AND A SMILE ON MY PLATE TOO)

WE have decided that Another Broken Egg Cafe will be our Tampa-Visit-Mornin-thing from now on. OH, Ya gotta try their Black Pepper Sauce.... it is fantastic
The dishes look beautiful but the taste profiles don't make sense. My eggs benedict was garnished with chopped red peppers and that's all I could taste. The benedict sauce was unlike any benedict sauce I've ever had: it seemed starchy like it had flour or cornstarch in it.

Great drinks, delicious food, such good vibes, and gay friendly! I had the shrimp cakes which the chef sadly said he's removing from the new menu, so try them while they last! Also the most delicious fries I've had in a while. Fantastic service at the bar as well! Nothing negative to say ❤️

The Food is really good, we order 2 pizzas one was a pork with pineapple delicious, the other was the Margherita which wasn't bad. I order the steak frites which was nice and juicy, the tacos were good, customer service could be better. Great ambience, live music.

Visited on a Saturday after someone in the group raved about the tater tots. Walked in and was seated near the bar area. Requested waiter service instead of order by QR. I do agree that the tater tots were good. Pictured is the wings, pork belly sliders, and flatbread. I ordered something that I didn't find pleasurable, but replacing it with the Flatbread had my stomach is happy mode. Would return, but no immediate need.

Simply put, this is the very best meal I have had in the last 2+ years. It may be the very best meal I have ever had. We were lucky enough to get reservations here on our honeymoon and after eating here, I don't know how we are supposed to enjoy any other food on the island. Chef Lee provided so many smooth transitions between American, Korean, Japanese, Thai And Chinese cuisines and did so seamlessly. The textures were outrageous And this staff brought the meal to another level. I can see a Michellin star in their future and wouldn't be surprised to hear that Chef Lee is a James Beard finalist or recipient in the future. The next time I am fortunate enough to eat here, I expect that the secret will be out and his kitchen staff will have we quadrupled to keep up with demand. I remain so incredibly satisfied with everything presented tonight. Outrageous and outstanding still don't fully award the experience of our meal this evening. This is my new, Last Meal. Thank you to Pai chefs, servers, bar tenders and everyone between.

Superb!! Almost didn’t go and so glad we did. Great experience. The pizza was next level. House made and fired right there. The watermelon pizza was so incredible. So was the pork and pineapple. The corn chowder is a must try as well.

Wow, wow and wow..our server knew the menu, made recommendations and was just pleasant. Everything we ordered was amazing. The flavors are so complex. The smoke ahi as a snack to start was sheer bliss in your mouth. Then the venison tartare, scallops melts in your mouth. The bone marrow to round out our meals along with the mushrooms. This has been the best I've ever had! Everyone was very attentive to your needs! The peach dessert to end the evening with a bang, not too sweet, just perfect!

Beautiful restaurant in Chinatown, Honolulu. The restaurant is quite small and it’s very hard to get reservation. So I would recommend you to make a reservation 2 month in advance. They have chef tasting menu option as well a la carte.

Unfortunately, we cannot get a reservation for the chest tasting menu. However, we had a great night hanging out with friends. The staffs were very friendly. Food was great. Sommeliers were very knowledgeable

Came for brunch, limited menu but all was delicious. Table side Old Fashioned was amazing. Great service. Only brunch on first Sunday each month, Don't miss this!
So so good! The avocado toast with shrimp salad is the best I’ve ever had! And the espresso martini! No words!! You definately need to stop here for brunch the next time you’re in Parkersburg, WV.

This place is wonderful! The beer is fantastic! I recommend the El Honcho! The Italian Sandwich with the tots was delicious (get the ranch for dipping)! The steak and frites was alright but not worth it definitely get the sandwich! The atmosphere is perfect for a mid day drink and/or a relaxing evening in the Navy Yard! The Yard Park is less than a 5 minute walk away to spend the rest of your night or to work off some of those tots! If you are in Navy Yard this should be on your list!

the food and drinks are GOOD. I almost didn’t come here because from photos I could tell I wouldn’t like the ambiance, but I’m glad we came anyway. The almost confusing clubby-type vibe inside with neon lights just doesn’t let on that their food would be that good, but it is.

what we got: big Kahuna burger, which was an amazing flavor experience; truffle parm frites, spot on; pork belly sliders, SUCH a good combo of flavors and the meat was perfect; shrimp tacos. Also an espresso martini which was honestly one of my favorites that I’ve had.

Really nice spot right by the National's stadium. The burgers are great and they have a nice selection of microbrews. I liked the QR code for the menu and ordering process. It let's you customize exactly how you want so you know your meal is ordered and prepared right. You go ahead and pay at the same time along woth the tip which can be a problem if the food and service aren't great. My experience was great food and awesome service so no need to worry. The atmosphere is bar/pub like and feels very come and go as you are.

Really good restaurant with great ambience at the Domain. My favourite part is that it has lots of vegan options.
We had the vegan double cheese burger, and the garden pesto pizza. The serving size was huge, I could only eat half the burger. But it was delicious!

We did the Chef's tasting menu, and my oh my....it has been one of the best meals I've had, even better than some Michelin Star restaurants I've been to.
The Chef is AMAZING!!! The food is spectacular!
I highly recommend to spend a little more and opt for the Chef's tasting menu, it os worth it.

Only a few tables here! But the experience is great and service is warm. Didn't order the larger format stuff but the regulars were right on taste wise and plating inventive. Only complaint might be the pacing... They seem to have a clear way they pace the courses and didn't ask if we wanted any other way.

Very cute cafe!

Enjoyed the location and atmosphere of this place. The staff was also very friendly the day we came here!

The restaurant itself was packed and we didn't want to wait to sit down that day so we just ordered coffee and left. But still had a great experience

The coffee they make looks and tastes quality.

Highly recommend checking out!

The food choices on the menu are immense, but that usually means that the place does not excel in any area. This is true here. The burger was on par with any fast food restaurant but more expensive. It was the only food I finished. The pizza was worse than most supermarket frozen pizzas. And the onion rings were super salty and greasy. It’s been awhile since I’ve thrown out the majority of my food. Even the ketchup tasted weird enough to not use with the fries, I don’t know what brand they supply.

Even though the food was subpar, the staff was friendly and helpful.

The menu is very eclectic featuring a mix of flavors. I really appreciated the ample nonalcoholic drink options. I really liked the "perfect matcha". The coconut and matcha flavors blended well. I also enjoyed the devil egg and salmon dish. The cheese puff was a miss for me. The dough was too chewy and the cheese was too tart. The food came out a bit slower but our waitress was friendly and attentive. Worth a visit for sure!

The highlight for this restaurant for me was the carrots. I love pistachios and having that mixed in to the drizzle that coated the carrots was insanely delicious. Some of the reviews on here mention how the portions are kind of small and not filling, and I have to agree. My friend and I ended up leaving the place with both of us feeling still a little hungry even tho we ordered one “snack”, two shareables, two entrees, and dessert that we split between the two of us. But but I’m still leaving it with five stars because truly I thought the food was soooo delicious. We loved every single item we ordered. Also the service was great and they were all so nice.

Enjoyed our Anniversary dinner at Alma. Ordered the tasting menu with wine paring. We liked the 12 different dishes and they were paced nicely between service. Lots of variety of tastes and different ideas. Guess the reason for giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is there really wasn’t a dish that stood out to me. Some lacking seasoning (my seas bass and salad). My favorite and most interesting dish was the Mung Bean Griddle Cakes with Littleneck clams, napa kimchi, summer squash. Overall I still recommend Alma for special occasion and tasting menu. Get the wine paring which seemed like a good match with the dishes & value. Dessert course was nice and light paired with a digestif. Cost was $319 (this included their 21% fee).

This is one of the healthier restaurants in the domain and is great for anyone who is looking to have a filling meal without feeling bogged down afterwards. My go-to dish each time I go is the Mediterranean salad with an addition of grilled chicken. This dish is super tasty and gives you just the right amount of food for a lunch that will keep you powering through the day. I’ve also had the salmon, sea bass, and pizza dishes here as well. You really can’t go wrong with any item on their thoughtfully crafted menu. On this visit I also ordered the chicken sausage pizza and it was a wonderful addition the the salad which when ordered together served as a great half-and-half combination meal to split with another person. The atmosphere of this restaurant is also very vibrant which matches the healthy food that’s being served.

Undoubtedly the best choice to be on my birthday! The choice was for the music, I love hip hop, and the place did not disappoint! Old school hip hop, high quality music! The menu doesn't have many options, but it's very tasty! Recommend for hip hop lovers. I don't know if we arrived early, but we were alone for hours, which made everything better!!!!!

This place is easily one of the best in the twin cities. I'm not a food critic or anything but like I've eaten at a fair number of places and this is my favorite by far.

Order the burger, just do it.
And the deviled eggs.
And the octopus... Tbh I doubt you could go wrong.

Also our waitress, Katie, was amazing!!

I was here for a baby shower and there was an area reserved that was perfect for the occasion. The food was buffet style, consisting of pastries, pasta, bacon, eggs, and other brunch-style foods. And it was all so delicious. The service was attentive and the staff was nice. There was even a private bathroom for the event. It’s not only a great place to host an event but the food is definitely worth trying. I’ll have to come back.

Hosting an event at Alma was an outstanding experience from beginning to end. The layout of the space created a fun, welcoming environment. The staff were exceptional. They were friendly and provided outstanding service.

The brunch food was delicious, especially their pastries and salads. The cocktails were expertly crafted with great presentation, the Bloody Mary was everyone's favorite with the fresh squeezed mimosa coming in a close second.

I'd highly recommend this place for an event, a cup of coffee or anything in between.

There is alot to offer here. Get in line and order, grab a table and once you sit down the service continues. Great cocktails and mocktails.

As far as food goes they have a little bit of everything. The duck tacos where especially awesome.

Everyone enjoyed their food and left very satisfied.

Everything was excellent - very friendly and warm aloha vibes here! I ordered the pork sliders and my partner ordered fish and chips. The sliders were unique and delicious, the fish was cooked perfectly. We also had the Monkeypod Mai Thai, a must! We sat at the bar and both bartenders were very attentive and above-and-beyond kind. The meal was very fairly priced for the quality and experience. Highly recommend!
We visited for the first time, took us a bit to go over the menu ( there are so many great options). The 4 of us got different things to taste test each other's and was not disappointed. The foods ordered were the colossal babe grilled cheese ( fried egg and bacon) with fries. Assassin burger with tots, cheese steak with tots, steak Mac and cheese and chicken fettuccine Alfredo and the bradentucky hot dog. Everything was very good. A couple of personal preference things for myself would be more seasoning to the chicken in the Alfredo, dice up onions on the dog so when you take a bite you don't pull everything off whole. The tots were really good and me not being a big fry person loved the hand cut fries! We will be going back to try other menu offerings! Whoever helped us at the counter they were very patient with us and helpful when we asked about the items we were looking at.

5-star food and service 15 minutes away from Waikiki beach. I chose Senia for my birthday dinner with my wife and my 6-year-old son and couldn't be more happy about it. I was welcomed with a birthday card signed by all employees, everyone that interacted with us was super helpful, polite and professional and we had amazing food accompanied by the best service at Senia. I also appreciate that everyone was very nice and accommodating to my son (which is not a given in fine dining restaurants).

Food’s good but dang, every time I order here something is missing. Ordered the village Greek salad tonight (which I thought would be table size - pretty small) with a simple request of extra lettuce. Arrived with no lettuce. Seriously? For a $14 salad? Can’t keep spending my hard earned bucks here not knowing I’ll be getting what I ask for.

This was the best meal we've done in Honolulu. Every course was well thought out for flavor, presentation, and the pairing with wine. We sat at the chef's counter, and the interaction was worth every penny. The kitchen staff was friendly and fun. Chef explained everything and answered many questions my son (16) had for him.

Easy Five stars all around. Beautifully executed food, with truly outstanding plating. Solid cocktails with attentive service was a total highlight and truly elevates the food scene in HNL. Influences of Per Se and French Laundry can be felt, but what makes this restaurant glow is the Hawaiian aloha. The wait staff was professional and helpful but also relaxed and approachable. We were expecting some pretentiousness but were surprised and happy how inviting and relaxed it was.

Thoughtful interior design with repetitions of soft curves and monochromatic tones accentuates a open concept kitchen which sets up nicely for a Chefs Table.

Finally after spending a month here on multiple islands it was nice to see a truly international menu. Many restaurants we’ve gone to have strong Pan Asian flavors and have become one dimensional. Senia still brings Island sensibility and flavors to the menu but expands nicely into French and Italian influences.

We will be back!

Stopped by to check out their newly launched lunch menu this week and the food was delicious and packed with flavor. Definitely get the spaghetti with meatballs and/or the steak. The portions were just right. I’ve dined here for dinner and the service is always top notch. You’ll find the same thing during lunch as well. Excited to go back and try the rest of the menu!
Lot of vegetarian options , great ambiance and nice menu variety. The oat pancakes were delicious and had a great texture. Some dishes like the cauliflower bites could use more seasoning. Avocado toast was hard and might need extra jaw strength to chew into.
My son took me for Mother’s Day brunch and didn’t make reservations so the wait was expected. My food did come out a bit cold and my biscuit was very hard. The iced coffee was mediocre, six dollars a piece and no free refills which was not specified when my server asked if I wanted another. Had I known I would have declined. Not really impressed.

Really interesting beers, liked the option to try several in small tasters! The pub- style food was good as well. And they were flexible with ordering as the online didn't work for me and others from the group so we could do a mix (everyone paying for themselves). I recommend, didn't find better beers during my stay in DC. Nice industrial atmosphere too
Ordered Buffalo Mac & Cheese and Olive Plate. Both very tasty. Delivery great. Never disappointed. New lighting in parking lot and ghost street sign :)
It's absolutely amazing. Nick is awesome. Their menu might be big, but they perfect everything. I can once and after, I come by twice a week. From their hotdogs to their pizzas, every item is creative and served like it's going to be on a magazine cover.

Wow! What a great find! The name doesn't do the quality of food justice. Farm to table. Every item we had was delicious. My Ramon soup was unique and the best I've ever had. Will had the pesto pasta with chicken. Oh, the drinks are strong and good. Desserts are a winner. Great homemade farm to table foods. Highly recommend.

Love this spot. My friends and I had so much fun. The music was great, the staff was friendly and the Mac n cheese is to die for. We arrived just as the kitchen closed but one of the managers hooked us up. I’ll definitely be returning to try the whiskey wings. 😋

I can firmly say that this is what I expect from a coffee shop! A beautiful place with delicious food and a nice classic music!
One of the staff were super friendly and cool and this made it even a better experience for us!
The smoothies are as good as a mom made it! The Baked Egg Strata with the choice of tomato jam is just perfect!
The coffee has a nice design as well as a great taste!
I would have spent my whole day there if I could!

Wasn't expecting to run into this restaurant. Try them up in Virginia a while back. Love the food so it was a sure thing for breakfast. They was just as the other restaurant. Quickly seated, and served. Had a couple of mimosas and the salmon. Waiter was guick and attentive. Definitely recommend this and the Virginia location. Considering the distance between the two and near quality, I'd bet all the locations are equally great.

Well, that was pretty good. It was a long wait, but it was also the rare occurrence when the wait was worth it. Got the Al Pastor Benedict ($14)and it was delicious. The beignets ($8) were equally tasty. This establishment definitely uses the quality over quantity when it comes to portions. I will definitely be back.
This spot is so wonderful I couldn’t wait to get to our car to leave a review. Our server Jordan was delightful. Super friendly, helpful, & accommodating. She offered us some complimentary beignets for being first time customers (so delicious) my friend and I had the lemon goat cheese pancakes/maple sausage/eggs and crab Benedict. All of it was perfect. I can’t wait to come back. Service was exceptional!

There’s so many good things to say about this place! The atmosphere, the service, the fun events, the FOOD!!! Best burger I’ve ever had!! The owner is very sweet and knows how to run a business! Highly recommend The Cocktail Bar!! 10/10
We ate here twice while down in FL. One day I got the cinnamon roll French toast—-wow! Amazing! The next day I ordered the Lemon goat cheese pancakes-also delicious! I love their coffee cups so much I bought one to have at home. :) service was very quick and friendly.

Food was absolutely divine! Our waitor, Colin i believe, did an amazing job with recommendations, service and answering our questions. They cater to your needs, wants and dietary restrictions. They allow enough time between each course/plate, leaving you feeling satisfied and not overstuffed. Service was amazing and atmosphere was very welcoming! Perfect spot for a date night!

Just had the most wonderful dinner at PAI Honolulu. We were celebrating and my goodness did we feel celebrated! Amazingly friendly, caring, and attentive service. Delicious and creative food that was a wonderful show of local ingredients; including some of the best seafood we have ever had. We are staying in Waikiki for our honeymoon and are so glad we made the short drive over to check out this restaurant. Definitely recommend visiting!

In Hawaii regularly visiting family and was finally able to work a birthday dinner at Pai into the schedule. Well worth it. Sat at the counter and experienced the tasting menu. The food was exceptional. Quite an interesting set of dishes fused from different cultures. My two favorite were the Samoan Crab and the Chilled Lobster. From the time we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and was attentive to us. The counter seats allowed us a great view of the kitchen, but with more comfortable seats than normally accompanies a counter seating. Thenbtasting menu even had a birthday wish customized with name at the top. Not inexpensive, but well worth it for a special occasion.

Fun atmosphere, but a bit congested. The music and dance floor are what make this place. You get a club feel during the day.
You pay for the clout and name.
Small menu.
Limited vegetarian options.
90-minute bottomless mimosas.

The onion ring burger was delicious as well as the homemade tater tots. The ordering system was quite strange though. I wish you could customize things with a special instructions box or have an option to ask for sauce.

Great restaurant with great vibes. Staff were attentive & great. Nice Ambience and atmosphere. There's a dj at night. The food and drinks are amazing. Definitely recommend. The burger was the highlight and get it with the fried egg. So yummy. Great espresso martini , definitely hit the spot. The truffle mushroom pizza was great for an appetizer.

Highly recommend to make your way here!

Best brunch spot I have ever been to! Food was delicious, staff was great and loving the old school hip hop music. Also the live DJ was so dope, felt like I was in a night club at 2:00pm. I will definitely be returning when I go back to New York. Reservations are a must.

What a fun experience! My wife and I celebrated a special occasion at Pai. We really enjoyed the whole evening. The food was fantastic. The pacing was thoughtful (2.5hrs for 8 courses). The staff were so present but not overbearing.

The wine, oh wow the wine! They have a sommelier, two actually, who do all the pairings. They are so knowledgeable and thoughtful in their decisions. I drink a lot of wine but every glass opened up my horizons. This is worth the spring for if you’re on the fence.

Overall, I am very pleased. Pai is one of the best upscale dining experiences on the island.

Solid beer and the food is good, what more could you want? Good service? Got it. Comfortable space? Boom, nailed it. More beers than you could taste in one session? Double that! Try the falafel burger and a beer you wouldn't normally get. You won't be disappointed.

Exceptional beer offerings. The list of Bluejacket beers is fantastic. The 4oz tasters allow you to sample so many of their great beers. There are several unique IPAs to try, but do not miss the Tripel, Shaking Through. That might be the best beer on the menu. Twist, was also great, for a sour. Visit during the day for a laid back experience.

I can't review the food here as that would involve having been seated by the rude hostess. Opentable showed spots available & I was able to make a reservation for 4:45 but when I got there, was told no tables were available for at least 90 minutes despite there being open ones and it being just after 4:30 pm- hardly prime time for dinner.
When I mentioned this to her, I was rudely dismissed and looked at like I was making this reservation up- she didn't even bother to look in the computer.
I don't know how this person got their job in the SERVICE industry & maybe the food is good here, but any place that hires someone like that as the 1st person you interact with, won't ever get a single penny of my money. There's way too many other restaurants with decent - and I'm setting my standards low - service that I'll never go back here. And as you can see in the photo I took after I left- they were still showing lots of tables "available".

The bartender was great and the drinks were well made. Food came out quickly and service was efficient. Burger was great. Truffle fries were some of the best I’ve had. Mac n cheese was a bit tooooo salty though. Overall a great dinner.

Great brunch playing some good r&b music. I got the special (shrimp tacos) and they were seasoned very nicely. My boyfriend got the burger and loved it. The tater tots were just okay but we aren't big fans of tots. The Bellini carafe is good but it was too much sweetness for 2 people.

I gave this place 5 stars because it was also great for a night out. We liked the music and vibe so much that we came back that same night to party. Drinks were strong. Music was still great. Only downfall is that they started kicking people out at 3:15 even though the place advertises that it closes at 4am.

Open modern layout, three casks in addition to a dozen+ taps, I really wanted to like this place but the beer quality was disappointing. Lots of basic onion-y hop-forward beers, and the cask conditioning was in a bad state for both the Mild and Session IPA (flabby and flat in the mouth rather than silky and fine). Service was less than stellar, the bartender seemed disinterested in her job as if serving customers was a burden.

I made a reservation here for a work function after reading all the other great reviews. We were NOT disappointed. Although I was worried at first because while some of us were waiting for the rest of our party to arrive, we grabbed a beer at the bar and the bar tender was incredibly rude and behaved like we were a burden. I know everyone has bad days but man, it almost made me want to leave. BUT, the rest of the evening was stellar. Our server, Alex, was pleasant, attentive and accommodating. The brew and food were delicious, everyones order was correct and our server was kind enough to allow us to split all the checks (15 of us!). I would most definitely return next time I'm in that part of DC.

Holy chickpeas, I love this restaurant. Things that you must try: Fried Chickpeas, Kale Caesar Salad (without chicken), Veggie burger. I was not impressed by the Charcuterie (sp?) plate, so I would skip this if you can. I tried the bloody mary, which was good. However, you come here to try the beer. Great selection and I love that you get to choose between a taste and a full pour. Will be back...after baseball season.

Let me start by saying the food was AMAZING. Like, really really good. I'm taking a star off because the menu itself was not overwhelming. There wasn't a lot on there I wanted to eat. But, again, what we did have was great, and the large pasta dish was a refreshingly appropriate portion. The beer was decent, the waitstaff fantastic. The location was really cool, although not serving dinner outside was another few points off. I'd go here for restaurant week.
