The crab cake is not full of breading and filler like a lot of crab cakes, so I was happy with that. I got the "Goliath" crab cake platter, which came with hush puppies and a side, and I paid the extra $2.50 for the seafood salad. The hush puppies were cooked perfectly and were pretty tasty, a little sweet like I prefer them, and also pretty filling. I was a bit disappointed in the seafood salad since the dressing that is used overpowers the taste of the imitation crab, which is what I wanted to taste. I love the sweetness of the crab, but didn't taste it at all. Overall, I was happy with my food but I can't say I will eat here very often as my meal was $42 without including the tip, and for one person and a meal that barely filled a to go box it's a bit much.

Started with an espresso martini, a smoked Old Fashioned, and the fritto misto to share. Everything was really good. Then we split the lamb burger and the shrimp risotto for lunch. Both were excellent, although I think the risotto edged out the burger. Our server Mike made the whole experience. Before he even brought us water, he showed up with a bowl for Onyx. Come on, that's an instant five stars in my book. We ended up talking wine with him for a good part of the afternoon. He had us sample a few different pours before we landed on a Nebbiolo we loved. Later, after another conversation about wine, he brought over a taste of a white we'd never even heard of because he thought we'd enjoy trying it. It never felt like an upsell. It just felt like talking with someone who genuinely enjoys wine and likes sharing it with people. Relaxing patio, great food, excellent cocktails, and genuinely memorable service. We'll definitely be back, and Onyx probably will too.

I've been on a mission to find authentic Peruvian food some we are new to this side of the Country. This restaurant has food that tastes just as good as going to Peru. This place was so close in taste! My husband loved the ceviche. The lomo saltado was delicious. The jalea was also pretty good. Their arroz chaufa was so flavorful. The place is on the smaller side but even full, it doesn't feel claustrophobic. The service could improve. It was a busy day for them and they did their best but wish they would help each other out more. We would ask a different employee for something and they would tell us to ask our server, she was busy and I don't get why the ones standing there not busy couldn't help. I'll be coming back to try more of the menu!

We've ordered from this restaurant twice now, both times as takeout, and unfortunately our…read moreexperience has been a bit inconsistent. This time I ordered the tallarines verdes with steak, and my husband had the tallarines a la huancaína with lomo saltado. The portions were very generous, and the flavor of both pasta dishes was good! That said, my biggest disappointment was the steak that came with the tallarines verdes. For a $25 entrée, the piece of meat was extremely fatty to the point that a large portion of it was inedible. I was honestly surprised that a cut like this made it out of the kitchen. The pasta itself was excellent, but the quality of the meat really took away from the meal. During our first takeout order, our yuca was missing entirely. Since both issues were discovered after we got home, we didn't reach out, but having problems with both of our orders has made us hesitant to return. This restaurant clearly has potential the portions are generous and the flavors are very good but consistency and attention to detail need improvement. Better quality control before orders leave the kitchen would make a big difference.

Where do I start?…read more We've been coming here for years. Years. Even supported this business who could give a crap about their customers dropping down hundreds of dollars during Covid. And the respond that I get when I make one complaint, "thank you for your feedback." Ive never disliked a business so much as I do right now. We came for a group dinner. First, I called ahead because it was a birthday. I said it was a birthday and they noted that. When I arrived, told the hostess. She said okay. The waiter came to us. Never told us his name, specials nothing. Just taking orders. The waiter started bringing out checks BEFORE offering dessert or coffee. WTH. So I had to go back out, find him which I never did, and tell someone else im waiting for dessert for a birthday. She sent the guy in. My check was about $400. I was livid. You have one job and you cant even keep up with it. If you cant, you shouldn't be working there. I contacted this place a day later. No response. Contacted them again and talked to Nazlie who was absolutely useless to speak to. I told her everything. 2 days later, nothing. Sent another message. This person responds with we take your concerns seriously, our apologies. Are you kidding???? That's the response I get?? I decided to try one more time and reach out to the GM. Even worse. It took Crowe 2 days to respond. I guess they are on their own time to respond. Just like with their service. He said he talked to nazlie and "everyone asked for their check at the same time". So the GM insinuated its the customers fault. You have got to be kidding me! I cannot believe that such a "fine" dining place like this would provide a response. You already got $400 of mine and now you respond with saying oh it was the customer. Note to self, there are plenty of other steakhouse. I will be more than happy to give them my money. Customers, you all should do the same. This place isnt what it used to be. Clearly new management, a new GM and servers that need training. Absolutely disgusted and disappointed in everyone at DC prime and mostly GM Crowe.

Cocktails were my La Serre Martini and my husband had a Le Steb. We both loved the goat cheese salad (think they called it something else) appetizers. I enjoyed the Steak Frites and my husband had the Halibut. Dessert was a chocolate profiterole and a crème brûlée. Our server presented me with a little dish that included two small scalloped shaped muffins that tasted almond flavored and came with a little candle that he lit at the table for me to blow out. He nor my husband sang, which was fine I love French food and this restaurant is the perfect place for it and the decor truly resembles a traditional French Brassiere. We will definitely be revisiting soon.

The food was beautifully presented and the wine pairing was superb. Definitely recommend having them pair your wines. The grilled shrimp was a great start. The sparkling rose made the shrimp taste even better. The goat cheese ravioli was probably my favorite savory dish of the evening. The sweet sage-maple syrup-tomato sauce was fantastic. The Sancerre was pleasant with it, although I thought the ravioli itself was more impressive than the pairing. I had to order bread so the sauce wouldnt go to waste. I ordered the lamb medium rare, but it arrived closer to medium, and initially it was somewhat underseasoned. After adding salt and pepper and getting some of the thyme from the plate into the bite, the lamb became significantly better and worked better with the Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The creamed spinach underneath was delicious on its own, but I didn't enjoy it with the wine. Interestingly, the absolute highlight of that wine pairing was the braised garlic. The sweet, mellow garlic and Châteauneuf-du-Pape were wonderful together. Dessert was the highlight of the entire pairing. The lavender ice cream was outstanding, the Chantilly surrounding it was light and delicious, and the strawberry sauce wasn't overly sweet. The Sauternes was excellent with the dessert, particularly with the fresh strawberry. This was the pairing where the food and wine truly made each other better. Even though I was one of the last diners of the evening, I never felt rushed. My server was very attentive and social which I love. It was very romantic and yet comfortable enough that dining alone wasnt awkward. I'd happily return.

Upon entering the restaurant we were greeted and seated instantly. They took our orders shortly after, although I did notice it took a bit longer than expected for our drinks to come out. For my entree, I chose the Mediterranean Chicken Risotto. They offer a choice of a half portion ($21) or a full portion ($27). I opted for the half portion, and it was just the right size for me. It came with a pretty decent amount of risotto topped with chicken, artichokes, tomatoes, spinach, feta, all over pesto base and finished with lemon sauce. The risotto itself was creamy with a nice texture, though the flavors were not as bold as I would have liked. With all the ingredients, I would have expected a little more flavor. It was still good and enjoyable, just a bit more subdued than I expected. Overall, this was a nice spot for a casual dinner on a pleasant night out in Sterling.
